' the relief commission gome of these
amounts which aggregated a large
amount were mailed and about 1000
government agents have been making
an investigation.
President Roosevelt Is the moving
spirit behind the Inquiry and he de-
• dares that no man guilty of diverting
the relief funds shall escape justice. !
The cases come within the jurisdiction
of the federal authorities because of
the Interstate character of the postal
service which. It 1* alleged was crim
inally tampered with A considerable
sum of money was also sent through
the express companies and the Wolls
