The statement follows:
1T is great relief that the Tea
pot Dome controversy has at last
been transferred to a court of justice.
We offered no opposition to the entry
OF the order proposed by the govern
ment counsel and the appointment as
temporary receivers of Rear Admiral
Strauss and Albert r. Watts, vice
president of the Sinclair Consolidated
Company. be"au"
seemed effectively to provide for the
protection, conservation anu ue,el-
opment of the properly pcuu4n- ...,.t
of the governments suit. l am sure
that the government receivers, Ad
miral Strauss and Mr.: Watts, and our
organization will be able to work in
complete harmony in the interest of
the property
The order applies only to Teapot
Dome lands and such of the property
of the Mammoth Oil Company located
thereon as is required for the opera
tlon OF the wells. The order does
not extend to any other property of
the Mammoth Oil Company or to any
or the tanks, pumping stations, pipes
and and other property OF the Sinclair
Pipe. Line Company and the Sinclair
Crude Oil Purchasing Company.
To Contest Case Strongly.
for modus vivendi pending trial of
the suit, in no way involves the mer-
It's OF the governments claims, which
we Will strongly contest. Inasmuch
as the Mammoth Oil Company is not
ti'ing its answer at this juncture. it
may be proper briefly to state our
position regarding claims of the gov
ernment. The government attacks
the Teapot Dome lease upon three
grounds: First, that the lease was
"a irlT hot -n.At1
eX-Secretary Fall and II. F. Sinclair;
second, that it is void because the
result of a private negotiation and
not of public bidding; and. third, that
the order of the President transfer
ring certain powers regarding the
naval reserve lend; from the Secre-
tary IF the Navy to the Secretary OF
the Interior was void. We believe
that none of these contentious should
prevail
Our counsel advise that the lease,
having been executed by both the
Secretary of the Interior and the Sec
retary of the Navy. is binding on the
government.
Counsel also advise that the law
did not require competitive bidding,
and every practical oil man knows
that the Teapot Dome property could
not have been effectively developed in
the interest of the Navy under any
system of competitive bidding. There
was, however, no lack of competition.
LAS to the conspiracy charge, |
know that it can be disproved by
overwhelming proof.
Il am convinced that when all the
facts are disclosed and understood it
will be realized that the Teapot
Dome lease to the Mammoth Oil Com
pany was the result of negotiations
conducted at arms length by earnest
and loyal representatives of the Navy
and Interior departments, and that

ernment. but drove Il hard bargain in
