of the administration of the Teapot Dome reserve, some of them having been stationed in Washington, while others were stationed at the reserve in Wyoming.
 The terms of the Teapot Dome lease have been fully reported in this newspaper A national furore was created when the lease was signed. The facts brought out in the newspa- pers associated through International Labor News Service were cited in the Senate as constituting cause for a Senate investigation.
 When Senator LaFollette's commit tee began it's investigation into the oil situation during the last session early this year some of the facts re- garding Teapot Dome were brought out, but the bulk of the work was purposely left to the Public Lands Committee. It was Senator La Fol 1ette who, during the closing days of the last Congress, secured adoption of resolution which authorized the Public Lands Committee to continue the inquiry during the summer and into the life of the new Congress. This committee was the only commit tee authorized to continue it's work by the old Congress and the fact sig nihes to a considerable extent the inn portance that senators attach to the Teapot Dome scandal.

ton of the first naval petroleum re- serves, there has been a continuous attack on the navy's tenure of these lands by private interests and cor porations. The strength of this at- tack is sufficient to threaten a change of existing law in order to wrest con- trol of these lands from the navy Legislation now pending intends to destroy the navy's title to the bulk
 of it's oil in the naval reserves Action of the congress in this matter will in- dicate whether it is possible to retain these or similar reserves, after they have become commercially attractive.
 It will determine whether, in such a contest between private interests and
 those of the government, the latter can survive."~

Senators Walsh, Lenroot and Nor ris visited Teapot Dome and but re- gently returned These three consti- tute a sub committee in active charge of preparing for the inquiry. They have engaged three experts to go over the field in Wyoming, preparatory to testifying when the hearing opens. These experts are now in Wyoming completing geological studies. The purpose of these studies is to show the truth or falsity of the Sinclair claim that Teapot Dome oil was draining into privately owned wells outside of the reserve and that the Teapot Dome reservoir would in time have been drained entirely into the private wells. Pressing this claim Sinclair claimed that his lease pre- vented great loss to the government Secretary of the Interior Albert Fall gave credence to this claim in signing the lease. The fact that the United States Geological Survey had exam ined the field and reported that such drainage was impossible seemed to have had no consideration when the lease was made.
 Denby Disregarded Evidence.
 For the government the lease was signed by Secretary Fall and by Sec retary Denby. In signing the lease Denby totally disregarded the evi- dence and recommendations sub mitted> to him by the naval officers in charge of the reserve. There is a possibility that Denby may be called before the senate committee to ex- plain his low estimate of the opinion of the naval authorities who were presumably the best informed men in the service on the question of the naval oil reserves. It Is of course we'll known that it is customary for heads to have regard for the technical advice of subordinates who have been selected for their tech nical ability. \
 Grab Profits Standard Oil.
 Harry Sinclair, who secured the Teapot Dome lease, is in hfty-hfty partnership with Standard Oil in own ership of the pipe line through which Teapot Dome oil must reach the east. Thus the most powerful oil interests in the country profit by the letting of the navy's richest oil deposit. Tea

 It is now made known for the first time that every naval officer con nected with the naval oil reserves, in cluding one admiral, filed recommen- dations with Secretary of the Navy Denby opposing the lease before it was entered into It is further now revealed that every one of these naval officers, except the admiral, was sub sequently ordered to duty far re- moved from Washington and from all contact with the naval oil reserves. The admiral was retired ahead of time
 This astonishing information will be brought out before the U. s. Sen ate Committee on Public Lands which will reopen the Teapot Dome hear ings, probably in December, when the new Congress convenes.
 The admiral who protested to Sec retary Denby was Admiral R. s. Griffin, who during the war was, chiet of naval operations, and admired and loved by the entire service. Other naval officers who recorded their pro- tests were Commander Steuart, Commander Wright and Captain Hal Iigan. One of these officers has been sent to the Canal Zone, another to insular duty in the Pacific posses sions and another to sea service with the Atlantic fleet.

Page Judge Gary!
Break News to Him That Chicago Steel Mills Have No Trouble Getting Men for 8-Hour
 Shift,

Judge Gary said the 8-hour day was "'impracticable" because the additional men necessitated by the change from the I2-hour shift could not be obtained Here's what really happened in the Chi cago district, as told in a special dispatch to the New York World:
 "A summary of the progress of the eight-hour shift in continuous steel processes in the Chicago dis trict shows:
 "Plenty of labor available for the change.
 Five thousand men already have entered the mills.
 Fifteen thousand employees formerly on I2-hour shift now are on eight hours.
 "The mills are stepping older employees up, taking experiences hands from other jobs and putting them into the eight-hour turns as fast as units can be placed on the new basis and most of the new labor is going in at the bottom.
 "In the last two~months slack ening in employment has occurred in the steel industry itself, and this is helping to speed up the spread of the three-shift day, besides giv- ing jobs to men who otherwise might be out of work or on part time.
 Negroes from the South and Mexicans are coming to the mills in excess of demand"

Wonder Working Glands

"HE importance of the glands to our
physical and mental well being was
only recently discovered. Now it is
known that these mysterious glands, scat
tered throughout the body, control the
weight, the appearance and many, if not
all, Of the vital functions.
It is evident that the glands and nerves.
like any other part of the body, can be
weakened and wasted by disease, excuses.
Overwork or the approach of old age.
When this happens, the entire organism
suffers. Signs of deficiencies in this re-
Spect are dryness of skin, poor circulation.
resulting in cold extremities; scant, faded
or falling hair; lines and wrinkles in the
face and neck; shrinkage of the gums:
failing Of. the eyesight and hearing; list
lessness, fatigue and an unusual desire to
sleep; mental lethargy or slowness, loss Of
vlgor, and a STOPPING and shrinking of
the entire figure.
The results obtained in such cases by
arousing the dormant glands and creating
new nerve force are often almost start
ling. New energy comes quickly. The
weight usually increases and the appear
ance improves. The skin takes on a
healthier color, the circulation improves,
and in many cases there is marked in
crease of mental activity.
Much has been said and written about
wonderful results obtained by so-called
gland surgery or the taking of "gland
substance" 1t is evident, however, that
neither plan can produce satisfactory re-
suits unless there is corresponding in
crease of nervous energy, as it is believed
by scientists that what we call nerve
force is life itself. Korex Compound not
only contains valuable nutrients, but in
cludes ingredients intended to increase the
nervous energy. Thus it forms a COM
binatiOn treatment which users declare is
superior to anything else of it's kind ever
offered. Furthermore, Korex bestows its
benefits at a cost so trifling that no one
need deny himself the advantages it
offers. :

WORK WOULb CUT
RECLAMATION COSTS
Orders Inquiry Into Service as Bad
Crops Curtail Income From
Water Fees.

The first step In a campaign to-
ward an exhaustive probe OF the
reclamation and irrigation projects
in western states was taken yesterday
by Secretary Of the Interior Work in an
effort to cut costs.
In instructions issued today to the
inspection force, Secretary Work
said that complaints Of excessive
costs would have to be eliminated.
" herever feasible curtailment will
be made in the expenditures.
The same problem faced former
Secretary Fall. who met it by clos
ing several of the reclamation Offices
in the west. The reclamation serv-
ice derives part of its funds from
users Of water for irrigation. Poor
crop seasons and tight money condi-
tions during the past two years have
hindered the settlers from paying
their irrigation fees. reducing the
revenues.
The Investigations are to begin
with the so-called Rio Grande project.
