Special to Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, April 29.-Republican
support is promised to the congressional
investigation, proposed by Senator La
Toilette of wisconsin OF the lease by
Secretary Fall OF the Teapot Dome, naval
oil reserve. in wyoming. For three hours
Mr.. La Toilette attacked the lease of the
property originally set aside for the use
of the Navy. to the Mammoth Oil Com
pany, a private concern. At the close OF
his speech, Senator Poindexter of Wash
ington and McCumber of North Dakota
urged authorization OF the investigation.
Senator La Toilette charged that "the
naval reserves are on the right road to
destruction by exhaustion by allowing
specially favored private interests to Sc
cure leases upon them" There would
be mo peace or quiet" in the Senate, he
said, until an investigation had been or
dered. Against the contention OF the In
terror Department that the oil in Teapot
Dome was in danger of being drawn off
by wells In contiguous territory, La Fol-
lette offered the opinions of Governor
Robert d. Carey of Wyoming, G. B.
Morgan, State geologist OF Wyoming; W.
A. Blackmore. mayor OF Casper, Wyo. ::
Robert c. Bell, former special assistant
attorney general, in charge Of the with
drawn oil lands in Wyoming; DR. David
White, chief geologist of the Geological
Survey, and Josephus Daniels, former
Secretary of the Navy.
The excuse that the naval reserve is
in danger of depletion by drainage into
private wells on contiguous lands is as
old as the date of its withdrawal" said
La Toilette. at has ever been the spe-
cious plea upon which those desiring TO
exploit this rich field have based their
efforts to secure access to it,"
FALLS RECORD
ANTI
Mr. Falls record according to Mr. La
Toilette. had been one of opposition to
conservation In view Of his record Mr..
La Toilette said OF Mr.. Fall; 1T seems
almost unbelievable that the Secretary OF
the Navy would be willing to turn over
to the Secretary OF the Interior the ad-
minstration Of the naval oil reserves"
Mr. Poindexter said two points to be
ascertained by an investigation should
be whether the oil could be drawn of
through wells in adjacent territory. and.
II so, had the proper methods been EN-
ployed to safeguard the Governments IN
terest. His suggestion that the La Toilette
resolution be considered Immediately was
blocked by Senator Smoot of Utah, who
said he had not read II.

Sampler GETS
LESSON FROM
FEDERAL JUDGE
Petition for Citizenship Re-
jected Because of War
Record.

American citizenship is not for those
who are not willing to fight for their
country, DR.. Julio Samper. 2036 Talbot
avenue, a native OF Spain, learned today
when Judge Albert B. Anderson In Fed
eral Court, rejected his application for
final citizenship papers.
During the hearing it developed that
DR.. Samper, during the World War, had
claimed exemption on the ground that he
was not a citizen of this country and
because he was married.
Five years ago you were not willing
to fight for this country" Judge Ander-
son told him. land I am not going TO
grant this application"
Dr. Samper replied he had asked ex-
emption because he was married, but
Judge Anderson said that did not ex-
plain his claim for exemption on the
ground that he was a Spanish citizen.
Failure to pay alimony to his divorced
wife was the cause of the rejection Of the
application of William Dawes RamsbOt-
tom, 2415 Northwestern avenue. a native
OF England. In February his wife was
granted a divorce in Superior Court and
he was ordered to pay alimony and sttor-
ney fees. 1t was brought out that be had
not complied wi h the orders OF the court
in either respect.
In rejecting the application Judge An
dersOn said that divorce was not neces-
sarily a cause for rejection and be was
basing the action entirely on Rsmsbot-
toms failure TO obey court order
Final papers were granted to the fol-
lowing: Herbert Alexander Smith, 44Os
College avenue, manufacturing chemist
British West Indies; Christopher Riebe
1913 East Vermont street, salesman, Ger
many; Alexander Clark, 5000 Carroilton

Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild BIT, sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are the result Of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat liver
and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does. but have no bad after
effects. They don't inture the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel They take
held of the trouble and quickly correct it,
why cure the liver st the expense of the
teeth? Calonlel sometimes plays havoc
with the gums. SO do strong liquids. II
is best not to take calomel. Let DR..

feeling come from constipation and a

BARRY SAYS
POLITICS IS
UNDER BAN
Warns City School
Employees Against
Activities.
AK TO BE READY
May Vote as They
Choose, but That
Is Limit.

Employees of the public schools of In
dianapOlis who take an active part in
the present primary campaign may e1-
pect no leniency from the board Of
school commissioners, according 70 a
statement issued today by Charles L.
Barry, president of the board.
Shortly after the present board came
into office, Jan. l, several employees were
discharged on account Of alleged polit-
zeal activity in the election last No
bember, and President Barry insists rhis
policy will be followed as long as lie is
president Of the / GARD.
Recently there ha e been stories going
around to the effect that strong arm
Insthods were being employed 10 force
school employees into line ia the interests
of certain candidates in the present cam
paign.
SAYS THEY MAY VOTE
But THAT Is ALL.
II feel that men and women in accept
ing employment from the school city
have not, in any sense, forfeited their
rights as citizens. They have the IN
restricted privilege of supporting whom
they please in the primary Tuesday" Mr..
Barry said. However this does not mean
than any employee has the right to take
an active part in re furtheranee Of the
cduuiudCy OF any mUlFluuat or oESdnL1d
ton.
ANY employe breaks the letter and
spirit OF the rules OF the board If he be-
comes a member Of any partisan
political organization or takes steps in
furtherance of the interests Of any in
dividual candidate.
Il feel that any employe who has been
cOerced or subjected 10 any influence by
anyone in the school system or else
where has been subjected TO a great i'm
position. and / for one would vote TO
discipline anyone IN the service most
severely who any way engaged in par
tisan political activity or subjected any
one else in the service OF the school city
to coercion or improper influences to
obtain adherence to ans candidate, fac
ton or party.
SAYS HE WOULD
WELCOME COMPLAINTS
Il feel impelled to say that. as one
member Of the board. | would be very
glad to get reports from any one in
the service who has been subjected in
any way to such reprehensible influences.
I viii do all in my power TO protect
employees who have sufficient understand
ing II the ssnctity Of the service for all
the people to repel and repudiate such
vicious Influences"
