Reynolds Denies All Parr's Charges Over Sugar Trust Case
James B Reynolds ex Assistant Secretary of the Treasury fires back at Richard Parr chief of the Weighers Division, denying Parr’s charges and asserting he never sought a reward or was approached by any sugar trust agent. Reynolds cites a 1907 policy barring bonuses to customs officers for fraud prevention and says Parr’s claim rests on an improper premise. He notes a New York District Attorney request for a San Francisco transfer as part of the case and defends the seizure of the Strathyre as legally unfounded to seize sugar only.
