FALL DECLARES
WYOMING DEAL
PROTECTS NAVY
Non-Evaporating Tanks
Will Be Constructed
For Emergency Use.

Albuquerque. n. NJ, June 4-The
/ Albuquerque Morning Journal Monday
morning will print, under Washing
ton. d. c.. date line. a resume of the
report which, it says. Secretary of the
Interior Fall will hand to President
Harding Monday of how and why the
Teapot dome in the oil fields of Wy
oming was leased to the Sinclair Do
heny interests by his department, act
ing in harmony with the navy depart
ment.
The dispatch, says the report. reads
that the president was fully informed
of the lease before it was made; that
had it not ben made, private interests
drilling in the vicinity Would have
drained the dome of its oil, and that
the navy will have stores for emerg-
ency purposes vast quantities of oil
for defense of United States interests
i'll both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
and on islands.
The secretary also is said to assert
that by the construction of new pipe
line, the Mid continent price of oil
will be obtained in the Wyoming field.
instead of the present price. alleged
to be now 90 cents barrel too low.
He is said to declare that vastly
greater income will be secured both for
the royalties that accrue to the United
States government and TO the state of
Wyoming by breaking an alleged mon
opoiy.
Secreary Falls report, according TO
the dispatch. will say in part:
''pfanS bava hncy, 60 ,,lo $,l A.
of steel tanks for oil TO
be stored on the Pacific coast. These
tanks. when completed, will be turned
over to the government, full of fuel
oil so enclosed that il will not evapor-
ate. for the use of the navy only in
case of emergency. This will not cost
the government penny.
Emergency oil for the navy will be
stored at points in the Atlantic terri .
tory and for the defense of the Pan
anna canal
These plans have cen worked out
by experts. The fuel oil so stored. it
has been determined by actual tests
covering number of years, will be
subject to a loss of less than | per cent
during a long period of storage
The royalty oils now being received
and the proceeds distributed are handled
in the following way: 80 per cent for
reclamation projects, 10 per cent in
'ash to the treasury and the remainder
10 the state of Wyoming. This from
the Salt Greek field now amounts to
10000 barrels month and has pref
srential rights through the pipe lines

velopment company. for transporta-
ina TO competitive points. including

There is a further contract TO put
prices into effect in the
Salt Greek field. The Midwest com

Stop rofiteering One
of Main Reasons Put
Forth by New Yorker.
Senator Declares Fight
in Opposition Made by
Big Money Makers.

Washington June 4.--Tariff legis
lation will be passed at the present ses.
sion Of congress, if for no other rea.
son than to stop profiteering. Sena.
tor Calder, republican. New York, de-
clared Sunday in a statement which he
said was in reply to current reports
that the pending tariff bill was to be
side tracked in the senate.
The country will be shown definitely,
he said. that profiteering of today by
importing interests makes war profi-
teering fade into insignificance.
THE very interests which are today
shouting SO loudly against tariff legis-
lation," Mr.. Calder said. ARE the ones
which are making from 100 to 1000
per cent profit on merchandise pur-
chased abroad and sold to the Ameri-
can consumers. Before the debate
ends, the country will have all the
facts and it will then be evident how
these reports that the tariff bill will
not be passed originate.
Says Interests for Defeat
Many of these great interests who
are selling foreign made goods to
American women and men are very
anxious that the tariff be delayed. de-
feated or lowered because the tariff
will spoil their American market where
they are today enjoying these enorm-
ons profits, not only without opposi-
ton, but without the consumers know
ing how they are being robbed
Secondly, much has been said re-
Gently about a decline in our importa-
tions and about all danger of dumping
being passed These statements are
based upon . lack of authentic infor-
nation. Today at tho port of New
York where 20 per cent of all goods
imported into this country are ap-
praised. the importations of foreign
toys and cutlery are greater than ever
before. These goods are coming from
Germany where the retail selling price
is infinitely less than the American
cost of production.
Demands Protection
This competitive condition. where
the foreign cost is far below the
American manufacturing cost. prevails !
