INQUIRY ON LEASE 0F NAVAL RESERVE
Dr. H. Foster Bain Is guiZZed by
 Senate Lands Committee
e a

1 Washington, Dee. 5.--A number of prominent oil companies were re- quested to bid on lease on the Tea pot Dome naval oil reserve at the same time that a proposal was sought from the Sinclair interests, Dr. H.. Foster Bain, director of the bureau of mines, testified today before the sen ate public lands committee. He de- clined, however to give the names of the companies which were invited to bid.
 T understand that Secretary Fall declined to give this information when he was on the stand" Dr. Bain said. and l would prefer not to an- swer since the information l have is his"
 Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana, insisted on knowing whether the gulf. Union and Texas oil companies were in the list, and pr. Rain replied that he personally had asked the Union Oil company.
 Purchase by the Sinclair com pany of a number Of claims in tho reserve held by private individuals hhHAHAaA Alt4 government lOI NltNNN4~ ooQ was taken up by Senator Walsh.
 Don't you think that price excess sive ?'
 "I have never fixed any estimate of their value" said Dr Bain. but the Sinclair company was forced to consider their nuisance value as well as their equity. This is shown by the suit the lessor now is defending against tho Mutual oil company"
 pr. Bain testified the government received about Si,4o0,000 more from prevailing prices in the field. Sena- tor Walsh brought out that bonuses paid for separate leases Of govern ment lands in the Salt Creek field had amounted 10 si.300.o00 and the roy alty average 2s.5s per cent. As com pared with i6ia per cent from the Sinclair lease.
 The witness said the experts Of the bureau were convinced of the danger Of the Teapot Dome reserve being drained into the privately owned wells in the Salt Creek field.

MORAL SUPPORT FOR
 GERMAN LOAN PLANS
America Would Endorse Move
 ment to Aid TeutOnS

Washington, Dec 5.-German pro- rosals that the reparation commission authorize the floating of a loan by Germany to cover foodstuff purchases are assured of the moral support of the United States. The Aonly connec- ton of the Washington government with the matter will be, however, an expression through James A. Logan. American observer on the commis- sion, Of the willingness ot this gov ornment that priority should be eN- tended for such loan.
 Assent of the United States to the food loan project is necessary since this government has rights Of priority in connection with reimbursement for army of occupation costs. IL is em- phasized that the Washington admin istration desires that every proper measure of relief should be extended to help the German government meet the present food shortage situation.
 German representatives are expect ed to ask the reparation commission for authority to float d loan of ap- proXimately S70. .000, ,000, and it is be- lieved that about half of this amount will be offered to American investors. Since the possibility Of floating such 2 loan would he dependent upon priority over general reparations pay ments due from Germany, the whole project depends upon the approval of the separations commission of the German request that the food loan be given a favored status in order to meet the emergency. Under the Yer sailles treaty the separations commis- sion has authority 10 grant priority Of special loans over the fixed repara- tions schedules.
 The position of the Washington government is that the situation in Germany requires emergency action to prevent widespread famine. Be cause of that condition, the United States IS ready to set aside tempor- Rrily its claims for reimbursement of its army of occupation costs while the German government attempts to obtain the funds for creation of revolving fund to be used in the pur- chase outside Of Germany of food supplies

 New York, Dec. 5.-The case against those accused of murdering William Barlow and William H. Mclaughlin, Brooklyn bank mes- sengers November 14, will be built up without the aid of alleged par ticipants, District Attorney Dodd de- clared today, as he prepared to sub init the case to the grand jury.
 Those accused will have to stand trial" he said. '"The accomplices take nothing from the burden of their crime through a confession of guilt and disclosures leading to arrests and convictions. The hour of their re- pentance comes too late. Every &C., cused person will have to answer be- fore the law for his actions, without any opportunity through legal techni- calities for his escape from punish ment.'
 MT. Dodd said Morris (Whitey) Diamond, his brother, Joseph, and Anthony Pantano, accused of plan ming the crime. would not be called as witnesses. He said he expected indictments Friday or Monday.

MOVING MOUNTAINS

When the prophet Mohammed commanded the
mountain to come to him, he not absurd as
many generations of scoffers have thought him. AL
though the mountain would hardly have obeyed him in
any event, he nevertheless solid scientific
ground. Mountains do move, says DR.. Bailey Willis,
professor emeritus of geology at Leland Stanford Uni
versity, who ought to know. Only Mohammed might
have had to wait long time for the particular
tain he wanted. Mountains move slowly-even more
slowly than the glaciers which Mark Twain once tried
to use for transportation purposes.
DIR. Willis tells of experiments of the United
States Coast and Geodetic Survey showing that the
California mountains moving northward at the
rate of about foot in five years In the millions of
they have moved many miles His recent investi-
cations in South America show that the Andes are
moving eastward, at the rate of perhaps six Or
feet in 100 years.
No wonder there are earthquakes, with mountain
ranges rambling around the landscape like that.
The knowledge, too may be disqueting real estate
men, especially those addicted to 99year leases. Our
posterty if it happens to in for owning mountains
will have lot of trouble with boundary lines.

STRINGENT MEASURES NECESSARY

The recent event when dozens of citizens were
rounded up in this city for interfering with the oper
ations of the fire department should not be passed
over without comment in these columns.
Some of the motorists involved were inclinde to be
crcal Others, after honest delberation, had to ad
NIT that the fire department had every excuse for it's
acton ana tnat the only way to terminate the evil
to take drastic steps.
Some of us feel prone to forget that it is OUR
property these fremen protecting There is prac
hcally no recompense, scant glory and lots of hard
work connected with this job of protecting the homes
and business blocks of this town against the Fire
Demon these volunteers ought to have the fullest
and heartlest cooperation of every in the town
instead of being forced to such methods as were found
necessary on Tuesday night.
There's one way to put this question to yourself,
Mr.. Crltlc. Suppose it were YOUR house that
burning and that all your possessions were at stake
Suppose that your well-meaning but thoughtess
neghbors rushed off to the excitement and imped
ed the progress of the fire apparatus while you stood
by heIpless-Waltlng and wondering why 'the boys"
didn't come to rescue. And the flames spread in
horrible leaps and bounds and when the fire depart
ment finally extricates itself from the maze of cars
that blocks its way it too late The fire has claimed
not only all cherished possessions but perhaps
what represents the savings of years of hard work as
well.
Quite different story isn't it. when YOU stop to
contemplate that YOUR house may be the next one in
danger-YOU may be the who will have to turn
IN the next alarm.
Or suppose again that your curiosity gets the bet
ter part of good judgment and you and yours are vic
TINS of CHASTITY crash while rushing pell-me
through the streets rivals the fire truck Would
there be any to blame but yourselves? And do you
relish the idea of possible death or an invaids chair?
Decidedly not, feel sure
The firemen have tried other tactics but they do
not seen. to achieve the necessary results. Columns
have been written in this paper and Fire Chief Fer
guson has taken every opportunity to plead preach
and exhort offenders to mend the of their ways
1t would be regrettable if tragedy the only
means that would force home the truth We are not
calamity howers but do believe in practicing COM
mon which says to emulate the example of large
cities where all traffic absolutely stops dead still and
gives the fire department the right of way
The failure of many who told to report at po-
lice headquarters and failed to do is only making
the matter difficult, and shows defiance Of law
that to say the least is extremely reprehensible.

A BAFFLING VICTORY

Germany is surrendering, losing her economic
she lost her military Governmental ending of
passive resistance in the Ruhr is the first and biggest
step. Other steps will follow. German workmen will
probably return to work Germany helpless France
is winning complete victory
The only trouble is, French statesmen are be-
gining to realize that this victory, like the military
one, doesn't seem to mean anything.
France demands reparation big enough to COM
pensae her for her losses There is only way that
Germany pay such reparation. That is by reviv
ing her industry. With her industrial machinery
ming again. it might if France permitted Ger
many could pay France in goods, sell enough goods
in other markets TO pay France in money. But France
does want to take payment in German goods, for
fear Of running her industries And she does not
want Germany to regain her foreign markets She
does not want Germany industry to revive at all, be-
that would mean the restoration of Germany
eventually a world power.
Watching what the Poincare government will do
about is going be interesting occupation for the
long winter evenings.
