NO KIND WORDS
FOR BALLINCER
Attorneys Brandeis and Pep
per "Sum Up."
SECRETARY IS ARRAIGNED

Counsel for CLAWS and Pinchot, in Ar
guments Before Investigating Com
mittee, Declare That the Testimony
Has Shown That Accused Cabinet
Officer Serves the Interests" Better
Than the People.
Washington, May 28--In summing
up the case of the SO called ''prosecu.
ton" before the Ballinger-Pi in.
vestigating committee Attorney Louis
ID. Brandeis, counsel for l.. r. CLAWS,
declared that it had been conclusively
established that Secretary Ballinger
is not a'man so zealously devoted to
the interests of the common people, so
vigilant and resolute in resisting the
insidious aggressions of the special in
terests, that he may be safely depend
ed on to carry forward the broad policy
of conservation of our national re-
sources
THAT he is subject to far severer
criticism we firmly believe added
Mr.. Brandeis.
Mr.. Brandeis spoke about two hours.
He referred to Mr.. CLAWS as ''the ideal
public servant" and to Clifford Pinchot
as "a man of character so high as to
be even above the suspicion of self
seeking"
He vigorously defended the action of
Stenographer Frederick M. Kerby in
making public confidential information
of the interior department bearing on
the preparation of the Lawler memor-
andum and said ito criticise Kerby
for this act involves a total miscon-
ception of the nature of our govern
ment"
What the Evidence Shows.
Attorney Brandeis, in giving
resume of the testimony, contended
that it had been shown:
That the secretary is not SO jealous
ly devoted to the public interest that
he may be safely entrusted with the
carrying out of a broad conservation
policy.
That it has been shown that many
of the Alaskan claimants were his
friends and that the secretary had at
different times acted for them.
That the secretary did everything
he could to secure the clear-listing of
the Cunningham claims before they
had been properly investigated.
That his testimony on the stand was
evasive and contained many misstate-
ments.
That his associations showed that
he was far from hostile to the advanc-
ing of the Guggenheim-Morgan inter-
ests In Alaska.
That it had been shown that the
"exoneration of the secretary had
been entrusted to a man admittedly
unfriendly to Claws
That CLAWS was condemned by the
president on charges of which he had
no knowledge and concerning which
the chief executive had been misled
by Secretary Ballinger and his subor-
dinates.
Plnchot's Attorney Pleads.
AT the conclusion of Attorney Bran
deis argument George w. Pepper,
counsel for Clifford Pinchot, addressed
the committee Referring to the tes-
timony which had been adduced be-
fore the committee Mr.. Pepper said it
had conclusively established three
points:
First-That the course pursued IN
the interior department had been char
acterized by a lack of fidelity to the
public interest.

The kola nut was prominently
brought forward about % years ago as
an agent for the relief of fatigue. but
IN this respect II has been disappoint-
ment- For some time it was thought
that the nut possessed some peculiar
substance which accounted for this
characteristic, but searching inveStiga-
lions showed that its chief active agent
IS caffefn. Whatever virtue the drug
possesses, therefore, appears to be due
largely, If not solely, to this constitu-
emit In fact, at present mixtures of
caf1eln and burnt sugar are extensively
used IN preparing various caffein bear
ing soft drinks, instead of the kola nut
and its extracts. The caffein used is
derived chiefly from waste tea leaves

was only natural that they should be
combined in preparations which would

i may be Of interest to note that life
insurance companies are considering the
status Of soft drink habitues as future

Various arguments have been ad-
vanced in justification Of the use of
caffein and the extract of coca leaves,
