MR.. LAWYERS NOW FAMOUS
MEMORANDUM

About the most interesting contri-
button to the literature of the BaIIinger-
Pinehot controversy Is tbe statement
which has emanated from Frederick N.
Kerb. stenographer TO Secro sary Of the
Interior Ballinger.
Apart from the Presidents course
in the matter. the Kerby state
ment is entitled to consideration as 70
a number of points until It is dis
proved. It Is clear that LAWYER did
not write a letter purporting to eusa-
nate from the President to Air. Bal
linger without assuming that use was
to be made of it by the White House.
That certain passages in it were
utilized by the President appears from
comparison of the Presidents Letter
OF September - and the LAWYER letter.
now produced by the Attorney General
1t seems clsar that Mr.. LAWYER sought
to have the Claws case disposed o. on
the strength of a document prepared
by himself, a Balhnger partisan, and
reviewed by other BaIIinger partisans,
including, as alleged. Mr.. BaIEnger
himself It cannot escape notice that
what be prepared was something more
than the ordinary memorandum. for it
was in the form Of letter from the
President TO Ballinger.
The denials thus far made do not
help the Csc of Mr.. BaHincer. Mr..
Lawler, and the other officials OF the
Interior Department involved. The
spectacle Of the destruction OF papers
given by kerby is not edifying. COMM,
on the heels of the snte-dating of the
~ ickeTshaE summary, what has been
disclosed as to the LAWYER letter Is nos
calculated TO strengthen belief that
CLAWS was given the full and impartial
hearing he was entitled to. The
special committee viii do well to 90
into al phases Of the matters touched
on by liT. Kerby thoroughly
