.O|L co. RECORDS
PRODUCED At
!. HEARING
Sinclair Again Questioned in
Operation of Teapot
Dome Field.

Harry F. Sinclair, millionaire oil
magnate. chairman of the board of
the Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corpo-
ration. appeared today before the Sem
. ate oil investigating committee in
/. response to q subpoena issued by
Senator La Toilette OF Wisconsin.
Sinclair was Immediately asked by
Gilbert E. Roe, counsel for the COM
mfttee, whether he had brought all
: records called for in the subpoena.
YES" replied the oil magnate.
With that reply the committee APP
7parently was satisfied, for no attempt
was made then to have Sinclair pro-
duce the Hyva books.
Roe at once launched into a ques.
tioning Of Sinclair as to disposition
of shares of the Mammoth Oil Com
pany, operating Teapot Dome oil
fields. 1t was during similar testi-
mony last Thursday Sinclair broke
with the committee and was asked
60 produce Hyva's books.
Tells Of Ownership.
Sinclair said he. now owned sos, 790
class A and $500 class B shares of
the Mammoth Oil Company. through
the Hyva Corporation; and ST. 900
shares were in the name of II. w.
Kenwell..
Sinclair then explained that the
3f7 900 shares, according to records,
were in Kenwell's name, but II do
not think he is the actual owner of.
any shares"
"who owns them?n asked Roe.
Originally answered Sinclair,
s'the shares were placed in his name
for convenience's sake, but later
these shares were delivered in q
group which Hyva. sold. Evidently
the purchasers have not transferred
his name. That is a custom of the.
Street in New York. !"
Shares Disposed OF.
Further testimony developed that
I'm the original transfer of Mammoth
shares to Hyva, the latter secured
100000 class A and 800 class B
shares. and subsequently disposed of
CSC, 500 class Al and 1 800 class B
shares. Hyva now owns 240, 700 class
A and no class B shares.
"Have you ever figured up the DIFF.
ference in income tax you would
have to pay If these stocks had been
kept in your own name rather than
being split up among various COM
panies?" Roe asked Sinclair.
81 have never figured it" answered
Sinclair, but there would have been
a great difference"
High officials of the oil industry
were present when Sinclair took
the stand. Included in the audience
which surrounded the witness take
and packed the committee room were
Col. Robert w. Stewart, chairman of
the board OF the Standard of Indiana,
and w. M. Burton. president OF the
same organization.

A labor leader made the following
statement to international News

..The miners want to get the
French into the mines in an effort
to force them to work. They fig

at disadvantage and could clean
them up with picks and rocks. The
miners say: Let them come. They
cannot take bayonets into the
mines. They cannot shoot because
a single shot would cause an ex-

fists, but they figure that our Ger

BARLEY asked him first about the
men that were at the card party. To
my surprise the butler said he was
unable to give the names of all the
men. though he knew most of them.
BARLEY took down In little red

he could remember. Then he asked
suddenly, "And what was the name
of the man that stayed after the
others left?
The question seemed to surprise the
butler, but he answered. "Mr. Law
