pany, announced late to-day that he had
been advised from Washington that ma
rines have been ordered to reject repre-
sentatives of the company from the
southeast quarter of section 20, In the
Teapot Dome naval oil reserve In Wy
onling, where they are drilling a well.
The Mutual Oil Company Is operating
under a contract with persons who have
a clear title to this quarter section" Mr..
Keoughan declared 'The title dates
back to 1890 and was granted by the
United States Government under the
placer laws.
IF United States Marines appear on
the property and order us to leave.
however. we will leave. but under pro-
test.
THE Mutual company's title to this
quarter section is exactly the same as
other titles held by Harry Sinclair and
qutclaimed to the Government when
Sinclair obtained the Teapot Dome
lease"
Messages from Caspar said the con-
troversy was the result of dispute
between the Sinclair oil interests and
the Mutual Oil Company.

CINCINNATI, July 2s.--The interest OF
the Federal Government and of the
public which paid the larger part OF
the war risk insurance premiums on
the lives of soldiers. is to see that the
intent of the man who died Is carried
out. according to a decision handed
down in United States District Court
here to-day by Judge John w. Peck.
The case Is expected to establish a
precedent in the disposition OF many
war risk insurance claims now pending,
attorneys stated.

both substantial and moral first aid

If Mr. Reed wins there is no ques-
ton that the wave Of opposition to
the Volstead act will gain a tre-
mendous impetus throughout the
country. The promoters of the dry
movement are fully aware of the fact
Not in many years has the full pres
sure of the dry machine been directed
with such force against a candidate
f1r public office. The wet supporters
of Mr. Reed assert that the Anti
Saloon League is spending a vast
amount of money to beat him. Sur
face indications to some extent justify
the charges. One Of the leaders in
the dry movement admitted to the
writer that nomination of Jim Reed
will increase the contempt of citizens
throughout the country for the laws

The dry contribution to the Long

after all. he has peen the supreme
issue Of the Democratic contest ir
Missouri. III Mr.. Reed wins II will be
because Of the personal hold he has
gained on the imagination not only OF
the majority Of Democratic voters but
substantial percentage OF Republi-
cans who desire to register their pro-
tests against the existing condition.
BY this, of course. is meant the pro-
hibition law. Mr. Reed has skillfully
juggled the Democratic doctrines to
appeal to the organized forces of group
prejudices. He has aligned them as
did National Chairman Will Hays in
the last Presidential contest. from
which expert manipulation Mr.. Har-
ding secured tremendous advantage
over Mr. Cox.
The largest and most important ele-
ment in the alignment to which Mr.
Reed has appealed is that which re-
sents the method by which the present
prohibition policy OF the country was
imposed. This motley group is made
up of both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. who admit no apostasy in placing
the issue above the legitimate demands
of the organized parties. TO ths ele-
mett, which is expected to give Mr.
Reed enough votes In the large cities
to overcome a conceded rural advan-
tage for Mr.. Long, the prohibitions law
is wholly odious.
Citizens of this frame Of mind have
conferred upon Mr. Reed the role Of
standard bearer to properly exploit
their chagrin and resentment.
Reed Wet to TIE vvets.
The fact is, however, that Mr.. Reed
has displayed characteristic adroitness
by subtly encouraging the wet element
despite the fact that he has publicly
declared for the enforcement of the
Eighteenth. as well as all other,
amendments to the organic laws.
The wet mob believes that Mr.. Reed
is wet; ergo. the wet mob is going to
vote for Mr.. Reed. That accounts for
one important group upon which his
supporters are depending for victory
over Mr.. Long on Tuesday next. There
are others. ONE of them are those
that reflect the views and prejudices
of Irish. German and italian origin,
which found expression in the battle
against the League of Nations, for rea-
sons Of specific national Importance

PEELED to file statements of their ex-
penditures the Barrett charge fell upon
unsympathetic or Indifferent ears.
The indications are that the only
attempt to inject the Newberry issue
into the Missouri Republican Sena-
torial contest will not have much effect
one way or the other for several rea-
sons. One reason is that money Is
certain to play a most important part
in the primaries Of both parties. The
liberal" element. which greatly desires
a victory for Mr., Reed. is practicing
the touch system in anticipation OF
steady and ready flow of money.
which. according to popular belief, is
to influence the result of the ballot.
Charges of fraud already are en-
gaging the attention of the police and
courts Supporters of both Mr.. Reed
and Mr.. Long are accusing each other
Of resorting to old Tammany methods
of colonizing gangs of repeaters from
illinois, just over the river. or from
Kansas, Kentucky and Arkansas. The
police in st. Louis, Kansas City and
one or two of the important centers
where the same problems exist as IN
New York city are getting ready for
busy but not necessarily merry day
on Tuesday.
Suspicion of n Barrel.
The basis for the suspicion that
many a barrel is to be then tapped Is
that the liberals" who are flocking TO
the support of Mr.. Reed have contrib
uted generously to his campaign ax-
penses; also that Mr.. Long, who Is
wealthy in his own right, Is at once
good sport and good spender.
The complex of American complexi-
ties was never better Illustrated than
in the Missouri Senatorial contest.
Most OF the so called issues paraded
by candidates Of the two parties, with
the exception of Mr.. Long, have little
relation to the traditions and funda-
mental doctrines of either party. Mr..
Reed has made his own ISSUES. This,

Cambon Resigns Craftsmanship Of
 Allied Ambassadors Council

Paris, April 6.-Jules Cambon, who has just resigned the chairman ship of the council of allied ambassa- dors, to whom was left the settle ment of questions left over by the Paris conference, begins a new career in finance today, his 76th birthday. He has just become vice-president of the Banque de Paris ct des Pays Bas.
 M. Cambon began his diplomatic career when he was 51 by his appoint mcnt as ambassador to Washington He was extremely successful as civil administrator in France, having been Prefect of Departmental Governor in the important Region of the North and of the Rhone, the principal city of which is Lyons. Then he became governor general of Algeria and it was after that service that he was trans |ferred to diplomacy.
 While in Washington he also rep resented Spain during the Spanish American war and arranged the pre-

 He feared that if the Coalition were perpetuated on the present lines it would result sooner or later in a rev. olution or an attempted revolution.
 Ronald McNeill in seconding the motion, argued that it was necessary in Great Britain's democratic system to conduct politics on party lines.
 Lieut.. Col. Gerald urst, Manches- ter, moved the amendment, declaring that Hack of definite and coherent principle in the policy of the present Coalition government is myth en. gendered by misunderstanding and misrepresentation.' Those agreeing with him, he declared, were not try ing either to wreck the government or split parties. Nothing in the gov~ ernment's records offended the prin- ciples of the Conservative party. The cabinet was united, he said. and in view of the great danger of socialism and bolsAevism, the Coalition was necessary.
 Rising to prolonged cheers, Mr. Chamberlain said he was anxious for a full debate on the motion and added: By all means, let the house divide upon it."

 GOVERNMENT FAILS
Second Attempt Made in Con-
 mons Loses

London, April 5 Associated Press) Although a number of 1.aborites and Independent Liberals voted with the Die Hards the motion of Sir William Joynson- Hicks censuring the govern ment, which was debated in the house of commons lengthily and acrimoni- ously was overwhelmingly defeated No division was taken on the motion itself, but the amendment Of the Coalition Unionists was carried, 2SS to 95.
 The Unionist party meeting" as Joseph Devlin described the discus sion of the Die-Hards' resolution, attracted a full house. There was much banter throughout the debate, but bitterness was discernible below the surface between the Die-Hards and their Unionist colleagues. Mr. Joynson- Hicks appealed to the Con- servative leaders to take command of tn Conservative party as the coun- try's greatest instrument for political good.
 Austen Chamberlain, the govern ment leader, who entered the arena at an early stage. declared the govern ment was anxious for vote. He twitted the Die-Hards on the delay in introducing the motion, asserting there was not single principle con- tained in the resolution or a single definition of faith.
 Premier and Chamberlain Hit.
 Mir. Chamberlain said that Joynson- Hicks and Ronald McNeill held safe Conservative seats, and asked if they had considered the opinion of the Unionists in Scotland or in the great industrial centers o
 Lord Hugh Cecil violently assailed the government generally and Mr. Lloyd George and MT. Chamberlain particularly, declaring that their &C., tions and failure were endangering the country's safety He and Mir. Chamberlain had several sharp tilts, Ministerial uproars drowning some of Lord Hugh's caustic remarks.
 "If the government cannot follow their political principles they should resign 7" he cried, adding that he feared the discredit of Britain had affected it's commercial reputation throughout the world
 In discussing his motion Mir. Joyn- son. Hicks disavowed any intention of a personal attack on thsa Prime Minis ter or his colleagues.

 Major R. E. Paddock, a relative of Gen. John J. Pershins, who ac- compancd Lieut.. Col. Beck on his trip to Oklahoma City last Monday and was a member of the party at the Day homo there, declared Beck was never a coward.
 He never hid from anybody, said Major Paddock. He faced death as d matter of duty in the air and on the ground too many times to play the role of coward dog, regardless Of the position he was found in.
