MAN WHO FOUGHT "APPEAL TO REASON" GETS IN BAD Washington, 31.

Represent i-tive Austin of Tennessee has called Attorney General Wickersham's attention to the fact that when Edwin C. Madden, retired as third assistant postmasler general several years, he removed from the files of the depart ment and took with him an original letter to him from Postmaster General Cortelyott. Austin directs the attorney General's attention to the fact that the criminal code makes the removal of property or records of the i'liited States a penitentiary offense punishable by a $5,000 line and Imprisonment for not more than live years or both. Madden, when he was in office, was one of the Appeal to Reason's most persistent enemies. Madden doesn't deny that he took the Cortelyou letter along with him when he left the department.

He insists, however lhat he had a right to take 11 as was addressed to him. The attorney general, replying to Austin's commun cation, has promised to give promp1 attention lo the case. Austin brought out information con renting the Cortelyou letter when he Inquired in the course of the hearing before the house committee on expenditures in the postol'flce depart ment where the original of that com municatiou was. "In St Louis," Madden replied. "That was addressed to you of flclully?" Austin asked.

Madden re plied In the affirmative. "What right had you," asked Aus tin, "to take an original document off Ihe files of the postoffice department addressed to you officially?" "Because II was mine," Madden an swered. "It was addressed to me and preposed to charge me with responsibility for all that was done." "It was not personally yours," Austin suggested. "Oh, yes It was," Madden responded confidently. "You claim that you have the right to lake an original letter from the tiles of the department, a letter nd dressed to yon officially?" Austin asked.

"Whether or not I had that right is question by itself and is enlirely apart from Ibis case," Madden tartly replied. It developed at Ihe hearing that the Cortelyou letter to Madden, which the hitler described to the committee as "villainous," was now an exhibit in a law suit in St. Louis, brought by F. G. Lewis, of the Lewis Publishing com pany, whose attorney Madden now is.
