BADLY HURT
IN FALL
Thrown by Horse, Recovery
of Former Teacher Is
Held Doubtful.

Little hope is held for the re-
covery of Miss Lisa e. Converse,
forty-five years old, a former in
structress in mathematics at Ma
tional Cathedral school, who was
thrown from her mount while riding
on Tunlaw road yesterday evening.
It was said today at Emergency
hospital that, while it has not been
determined whether she is suffering
from a fractured skull, her condi-
ton is critical. She lives at 2114
Connecticut avenue northwest.
Miss Converse and Miss Dorothea
Felt. student of the school, were
riding on Tunlaw road, near Snyder
lane. when a dog suddenly ran into
the path of the horses. Miss Con-
verse mount reared and throw her
to the ground. Miss Felt immed-
lately dismounted and tried to re-
vive her.
DIR. Daniel B. Moffett, 1900 Tun-
law road, hurried to the scene and
had Miss Converse carried to the
school. where he administered frs
aid treatment. Seeing that her
condition was critical, he immed.
lately ordered her removal to the
hospital.
Miss Converse is a graduate OF
Bryn Mawr.

DEFER PROBE OF
TEAPOT DONE
:
LEASE
Members OF Senate Committee
Concerned Chiefly With
Gasoline Prices.

Harry r. Sinclair, chairman Of
the board of the Sinclair Consoli-
dated Oil Corporation, today again
was called before the Senate Oil
inquiry committee to bare details
lions throughout the United States.
Little apparently will be done at
this probe; iloweVer, in connection
with Investigation of the Teapot
Dome lease, which Sinclair secured
from the Government last spring
and operates under the Nam not
Oil Company, in which he owns
one-half of all stock. The conf-
mittee is concerned chiefly with
a determination of the causes OF
gasoline and oil price fluctuations
and not especially with any gov
ernmentaI policy for disposition of
natural resources, according to
Senator La Toilette, chairman.
Goes to Lands Committee.
La Follette's announcement was
taken to mean the promised scruti-
nizing probe of the Teapot Dome
negotiations will be turned over
to the Public Lands Committee, to
which has been referred two reso-
buttons demanding a probe.
This committee proposes to take
things easily" for period and will
not summon Sinclair at this time as
previously had been reported. It
contemplates holding open hearings
efter March 4, when Secretary of
he Interior Fall shall have retired
from the Cabinet. There is no
particular significance to this, how
err, as the committee cannot be-
gin active investigation until two
biologists appointed by it shall have
had time to study oil conditions at
Teapot Dome.
Avoided Lease Questions.
Despite willingness on Sinclair's
part to get into discussion OF Tea
pot Dome, Gilbert e. Roe, counsel
for committee, carefully avoided
questions concerning the lease, pre-
terring first he said, to get a founda-
ion in the company's activities in
other fields, particularly the mid
continental; where it is the chief oil
purchaser.
An attempt also was made to as.
certain whether Sinclair had CO.
operative interests with Standard
oil groups.

N. P. Alias Comments on Inn
mobility Of Local Wage
Board.

Commenting today upon the re-
commentator of the Local Wage
Board for a one cent per hour re-
duction to machinists employed at
the Washington Navy Yard, N.
p. Atlas, president of District,
No. A, /. A. of NJ, expressed
keen disappointment at the appar-
ent impossibility Of persuading
the Governments representatives
on local boards to alter any decis-
ion once rendered.
Department Adamant.
The report submitted to the de.
partment, Mr.. Atlas said today, in
dicates on it's face that the de-
partment has no intention of chang
Ing the recommendation.
1T is difficult for US to believe y
said Mr. Atlas, that the board
would .adopt as general principle
that the daily wage at the Navy
Yard shall be the same as the daily
wage obtaining in private industry,
and then refuse to apply. that prin-
ciple when considering the ipacEin.
lists schedule. Why should the
nnachinists be subjected to a, diff
ferent and more unfatorable method
of calculation than appeared to be
the general rule?
High Grade Work.
The management of the Wash
ington Navy Yard would not be
satisfied with the character of work
that is turned out in a railroad
shop II that degree, of skill were
applied to the manufacture of naval
guns. Consequently, the rate of
pay obtaining in such plants should
not be regarded as applicable to
first class mechanics at the Navy
Yard.
1.-The board, in other words, ap-
pears to have taken only such
facts into consideration as will tend
to justify its original recommended
ton Of ~ cents per hour for ma
-chinists.
IT would most respectfully again
invite your attention to the brief
submitted to the departmental wage
board on behalf Of the machinists
in the navy yard service, during
he hearings, in which reasons are
given why other factors, such as
he increase in the cost Of living
since 1913, living wage which will
maintain a family in health and
decency, and similar factors, should
be taken into consideration in de.
termining the rate of pay for ma
chiniSts in the navy yard service.
