WANTED: A LAWYER.
Ballinger-Pinchot Committee in Need
of an Attorney.

washington, Feb. 2.-Acting upon
the suggestion of Senator Nelson.
chairman of the .Ballinger-Pinchot
congressional investigating committee
that the other side" should be repre-
sented by an attorney who would take
upon himself the task of cross exam
ming witnesses, it was announced to-
day that at the future hearings of the
committee, either H. H. Schwartz,
chief of the field service, or Fred Den
nett. commissioner of the land Office,
would be represented Dy counsel. At
the close of the investigating commit
tees session Monday afternoon Sena-
tor Nelson said the cross examination
OF Louis r. CLAWS had proceeded
'feebly' because of the lack of coun-
sci.
As matter of fact the cross ex-
animation consisted largely of ques-
berS of the committee and designed to
aceentuate the political phases of the
testimony CLAWS had previously given.
Claws and those interested with him
are represented before the committee
by three lawyers who have spent sew
era1 weeks preparing for the hearing
and who knew the history of the case
by heart
Few members of the investigating
committee have shown any familiarity
whatever with the records and Senator
Nelson himself referred to the situa-
ton, as unfortunate .
The matter, it was said. was called
to the attention of Attorney General
Wickersham to see if some repre-
sentative of the department of justice
might not act as counsel for the gov
eminent departments which are under
investigation. It was pointed out the
only way the committee could get at
the facts was to have the case present
ed in orderly fashion from both sides
and that it was unfair to the commit
tee to place upon them the entire bur
den of cross examination to test the
credibility of the witness.
The attorney general took. the mat
ter up with several members of the
cabinet yesterday. Secretary Ballinger
still declined to engage counsel in his
own behalf, saying he had nothing to
conceal
The result of the cabinet conference
was to recommend that some one
should be represented by counsel and
either Mr.. Schwartz or Mr.. bennett,
probably the former, will engage
lawyer.
This action may delay the further
proceedings of the committee, how
ever, for it will require some time for
an attorney to acquaint himself with
the case. Mr.. CLAWS. who has asked
to be relieved from further attendance
as soon as possible in order that he
may return west, will not be excused
until the attorney representing the
"other side" has had an opportunity to
cross examine him.,
