House Seeks to Have
CreekmOre, King ofBOOt-
leggerS, Returned toPen

Oklahoma City, March ga report
which in effect recommends the. re.
turn of William j. Creekmore, alleged
notorious bootlegger, to the state pen
itentiary from which he was pardoned
last summer, was made in the house
of the state legislature today by the
investigation committee.
The report charges that the pardon
granted by r. l.. Davidson, of Tulsa,
acting governor, did not apply to the
crime of which Creekmore was convict
ed. The report also asks that NJ. A.
Calm and Henry Teidman. associates
of Creekmore, who were pardoned at
the same time, be likewise returned to
the prison.
The report says:
THE only crime identified in the
purported pardon is that Of selling
intoxicating liquor of which Creek
more had been convicted in the county
court of Oklahoma County. The Calm
and Tiedman pardons were likewise
worded. Such was not the crime of
which Creekmore was convicted in
the county court.
He was convicted and sentenced
for conspiracy TO violate the prohib-
itory laws. A single case Of selling
liquor and conspiracy to violate
such laws. are distinct offenceS Gre
ated by different statutes, the con-
spiracy statute carry the greater pun
ishment."
No direct attack on Senator Davidson
is made in the report. However, the
report continues:
"The whole matter was an attempt
at a wanton and reckless abuse of the
pardoning power, justification OF which
was attempted by Misrepresentation
The testimony showed that Cover
nor Robertson was at the time q
stockholder and director in the Paul
inc Oil and Gas Company, u corpo-
ration of which Ben Green, one OF
Creekmores big six. is president.
"The governor having this relation
TO Creekmores former associate, and
Lieutenant Governor Trapp endeayor
ing to get endorsements that would
enable the governor to pardon Creek
more, it is quite natural that the
governor should not caution Davidson
against pardoning Creekmore and that

Trapp should leave the state to give
Davidson an opportunity to do So"
Beyond reviewing the circumstances
of the attempted pardon of NJ. NJ.
Fulkerson, Alva banker, convicted Of
embezzlement, the report does not deal
with this case.
In conclusion the report says:
I'VE recommend that the attorney
general take appropriate action in
the criminal court of appeals to secure
dismissal of the appeals of the said
Creekmore, Calm and Tiedman and
the issuance of mandates to the coun-
ty court of Oklahoma county for the
execution of judgment and imprison-
ment of these men according to the
judgment and sentence Of the county
court; and Furthermore, your COM
mittee doubts if there was such a
vacancy in the office Of governor at
the time Senator Davidson attempted
to pardon the men, as would, under
the execution, have justified his ac-
tion."

WANT ALL SESSIONS
 MADE PUBLIC

Washington, Nov. 2-Senators who are urging that the fullest publicity be given, to whatever tranSpires at the conference of limitation of arna- ments and Far Eastern problems were aroused today by semi-off1cial advices reaching them that public or open sessions of the conference will be few and far betweenA They de- clared that they were prepared to protest vigorously. if it developed that while the opening session will prob ably be public, those thereafter will be mostly closed. or secret. except for an occasional open one intended to satisfy public opinion.
 Senator Borah. Republican, of Idaho, said:
 I shall never believe that the con- ference will be held in secret at any time until the doors are closed upon the public. The repor- that the con ference will be held largely behind closed doors seems incredible to me-
 Senator Walsh. Democrat, of Mss sachusetts, sadd:
 The American people might as well abandon all hope of any success full settlement of the grave interna- tional questions which the conference has been called to consider, if its ses- sions are not to be public and all of the speeches. arguments, contentious, deliberations, decisions and votes which occur at it are not given the fullest publicity, and subjected to the completest scrutiny of the peoples of the entire world"

BOOM HOFFMAN FOR COMMANDER
 OF VETERANS

Kansas City. Mo, Nov. 2.-Delega- tions supporting Brg. Gen Roy Hoff- man man, of Oklahoma City, Okla, for na,- Legion, claimed 775 votes for Hoff- 'n1an before the final session of the convention opened today. Five hun dred and twenty-eight are necessary to elect.
 New York, 1t was said has with drawn Sate Commander William F. Deegan and was supporting Hoffman, with the assurance of midwest del- egates that they would support Dee gan next year. Hanfo1-d McNider of Iowa and John F. Williams of Mis- souri were opposing Gen. Hoffman.
 The convention adopted a resolu- tton reaffirm1ng the a titude taken by the last convention at Cleveland rel ative to adjusted compensation. The resolution reviewed the history of tentative bonus legislation heretofore sponsored by the legion, which cul- minated in the Sweet bill, passed by the House of Representatives and re- jected by the Senate upon the rec ommendation of the President. Then the resolution reaffirmed the legion S stand in favoring the passage of leg islation providing the same sort of adjusted compensation which the Sweet bill provided.
 Marshal Foch, long before many in the city were out, went to Rockhurst College for a 7:3O o'clock mass and and memorial service for his son who was killed in the war. At nine o'clock at the college the degree of ILL. D., was conferred upon him. Later he and other distinguished guests made a tour of the boulevards of the city in motor cars.
 This was for the benefit of the small school children who were unable to view the Marshal in the mammoth legion parade because of the crowd.
 At 10 the Marshal and Gen. Per shing were to make a visit to the legion meeting and later in the after worth will be taken by the Marshal and he will inspect the military re- servation. He will leave for St. Louis tonight. Gen. Pershing will accom- pany Marshal Foch and his party to St. Louis and to other cities where he will be entertained. Admiral Beatty and Gen. Dfaz with their re- spective staffs left last night for New York City.

Senators Prepare To
 Renetu Fight For Bonus

Washington, Nov With Senator Reed of Missouri and other Demo- cratic headers prepared to renew their .dgght for the soldiers bonus as an amendment to the tax bill when the senate reconvened today, the pro gress to be expected toward final ac- ton on the bill appeared problemati- cal. Whether advocates of the Reed bonus amendment, proposing retention of the excess profits tax to defray the cost of the five way adjusted com pensation plan, were prepared for mally to move adoption of the amend ment and thus close discussion on it had not been disclosed. Should this be done however, and the amendment be tabled in accordance with the
 majority plan, as announced by Sena- tor Penrose of Pennsylvania, in charge of the bill, bonus advocates on the Democatio side. according to plans, would then be ready to counter with formal presentation of the Sinnons-Wa afsh amendment proposing paymen of the bonus out of the foreign debt interest
 Meanwhile proponents of the sales tax planned to press their campaign today to secure the necessary major ity to put through one of the three plans offered by Senator Snloot, Republican, Utah, as a substt- tute for the miscellaneous feYies con- tained in the pending bill,
