DOheny's Counsel Calls
Charge of WOOdhOuse
"Unqualified FalsehOOd''

The following statement was
issued today from the office of
Frank ]. Hogan. counsel for Ed.
ward L. Doheny and the Pan.
American Petroleum & Transport
Company:
1.-The statement of Henry Wood.
house mario Casalegno) before the
Walsh Investigating Committee that
E. L. Doheny, or the British
Mexican Petroleum Company, had
given to Great Britain or to British
interests first CALI on oil taken
from Naval Reserve No. /, or had
given or sold any American oil
whatever to British interests or
British steamships, is an unquali-
fled falsehood. When Wpodhouse
says he has seen a contract guaran-
teeing such sale he simply lies.
Mexican Oil Sold.
THE fact is that the only oil
sold by Mr.. Doheny or his COM
panies to British companies was
Mexican Oil, taken from Mexican
wells and refined almost entirely
by American labor at the DOheny
refinery near New Orleans. And it
was sold to British steamships COM
ing into American ports, chiefly as
bunker Oil.
ut was only after the U. S. Ship
ping Board had, about 1919, turned
down a most favorable offer from
the Doheny companies to supply
all the fuel oil it needed at an ex-
ceptionally low price, that arrange
ments were made by Mr.. Doheny's
Mexican company to sell part
of it's surplus Mexican oil, no
specific amount being guaranteed,
to British ships, chiefly the Cunard
and the White Star lines.
"TheSe contracts were made long
before the lease of Naval Reserve
No. I was ever dreamed of and NO
part of the oil taken from that
reserve was ever sold to British
interests or British vessels.
Court Decision Cited.
1.-The fact that Judge Mccormick.
in his decision of Monday on the
Governments bill Of complaint,
confirmed all the existing contracts
made for the disposal Of the surplus
oil from Reserve No. /, in effect
directing the receivers to carry out
these contracts, would have been
sufficient evidence to a sincere and
intelligent investigating committee
that the charge Of 'Woodhouse' was
wholly unfounded.
1.-THE taking of testimony from
'woodhouse' is typical Of the con
temptible petty politics which have
characterized the so-called Walsh
Investigation"

make the trip until the following
day. The youth insisted that his
mother be attended Immediately, and
an argument followed, whereupon
West fired twice, fatally wounding
the doctor.

questions being the exhibition of
