7 HO TROUGH
INQUIRY IS
ORDERED
McReynoIds Not Satisfied With
MckeIway's Report on the At
Ianta Penltentiary.

Important developments in the
agitation for reforms at the At
lanta Federal Penitentiary were
reported in dispatches from
Washington to The Georgian
Friday. Here they are:
1. Attorney General Mercy
nolds has decided that the in
quiry made by Special Agent DR.
A. j. McKelway was insufficient
and unsatisfactory, being taken
on ex parte testimony.
q Major Henry Leonard, an
expert on penitentiary manage
ment, has been named to make a
, thorough investigation. The At
torney General has instructed
him to look into the internal and
external management of the in
stitutien and to place every
phase of the matter before the
Department of Justice.
3. Congressman Oscar Under
wood, the majority leader in the
House, has interested himself in
the agitation and believes the
Democratic administration will
make whatever changes are nee
essary.
Meyer May Be Removed.
q. Indications are that Warden
William Fl. Meyer may be trans
ferred to some other post or lose
out altogether, although the war
den is exonerated of having had
any hand in the cruelties charged
by various prisoners.
5. Congressman William Schley
Howard, satisfied with the new
turn the case has taken and con
fident that the Department of
Justice is determined on a real
investigation, will withhold the
resolution he planned to intro
duce calling for a Congressional
inquiry.
6. Robert V. Ladow, superin-
tendent of Federal Prisons, who
is said to be slated for removal in
the shakeup that the Attorney
General has planned, probably
will be succeeded by Joseph F.
Scott, of New York, long identi
fed with prison reform work.
Scott formerly was president of
the American Prison Association
and has been superintendent of
the New York State reformito-
ries.
Here is the Washington dis
patch telling the latest develop
ments:

vestigation of the Federal prison at
Atlanta has been re-opened. Not

DR.. A. J, McKelway, on ex parte te-

PORTLAND. Ore, March 2S.--WI-
liam Hanley. of Burns. more widely
known through Oregon as plain "Bill

gressives as their candidate for the
progressive nomination for United

After a characteristic address at the
regular weekly meeting of the pro-

Thursday on the topic, What oregon
Needs In which he outlined In detail
his ideas as to the development Of the
natural resources of the west and the

accorded what virtually amounted to
a demonstration. Many progressives
crowded about him after the luncheon

Mr.. Hanley did not commit himself.
Nevertheless, 1t is known that he has
the matter under serious consider
alton.
In any event Mr.. Hanley probably

SinnOtt'S Speech.

WASHINGTON. March 2S.-An en-
phatic stand was taken in the house
yesterday against the resolution pro-
viding for the repeal of the exemp-
tion clause in the Panama canal act
by Representative Sinnott of Oregon.
Speaking from the floor, he said:
THE cession of canal territory to
all the powers of the world is too
dear price for taking an English pi-
lot to navigate our ship of state in
Mexican waters. 1t remains for the
unterrified democracy to show that
your platform was not made of fly
paper and molasses, in spite of pres
idential pull. augmented by a post
office appointment lever and a land
office appointment fulcrum. when
l was a boy they used to tell me of
bird called the cuckoo which ap-
propriated for its own selfish purpos-
es the nests of other birds. Perhaps
II is possible that the secretary OF
states bird of peace will become our
national symbol. Something akin to
this possibility must have been in
the presidents mind when he sup
plicate1 us to let the British lion
cuckoo the Panama canal"
