ment during tho war Representatives

In I lie house today. They demanded

They Introduced a Joint resolution

ernment during the war. Woodrtifl
In a speech cited numerous "Hpeclflc.
Instances" where he charged th
government had been defrauded ol
millions of dollars In war contracts.
Cites Alleged Swindle.
One of the biggest of tho alleged
illegal deals which he cited was the
sale of the stock of the Bosch Mag-
neto company seized by tho alien
property custodian during the wnr.
Under fcils salo Woodruff charged
the New York and Tloston broker'
oge firms of Hornblower and Weeks
'profited to the extent of (1000000
or more."
On December 31. 191!) Woodrufl
said the capital stock of tho Ilosch
Magneto company wns sold by the
alien property custodian to Martin
E. Kern for $41."0000. Kara-was a
closa personnUfrlend and client of
A. Mitchell Palmer alien property
custodian' at the time of the sale.
Says Sale Illegal.
"It appears that Mr. Kern was not
an American citizen but was of
German birth and citizenship. It
would also seem that he had served
three terms In prison In New York
state for felony and I hold In my
hand copies ot his photograph ap-
pearing1 In the rogues' gallery In
New York City.
"Apart from the fact that Kern
was not an American citizen his
conviction of felony would deprive
him of his civil tights. The trading
with tho enemy act prohibits the
sale of property to other than Amer-
ican citizens. The sale to Kern wait
in direct violation of the act. No
prosecutions have yet occurred.
"Shortly after the property was
sold tq Kern a corporation callod
the American Bosch Magneto . com-
pany was organized.
He Displays Letters.
Woodruff displayed Vhat he al-
leged were copies of letters which
he said Kern had written from Eu
rope recently In an effort to "hush
up" agitation for prosecution la tho
Bosch Magneto company sale.
Woodruff quoted one of the let-
ter as saying;
''Why didn't Murray and all In-
terests' take John W. Weeks to
Daugherty and put a quietus on this
thing?"
The "Murray" referred to Wood-
ruff said is lilie former president
of the Bosch Magneto company. '
Following Woodruff Representa-
tive Johnson took the floor and also
attacked alleged fraudulent war con-
tracts and sales. Johnson charged
that there is an invincible bi-govern-ment

"It is possible 1 the park board
