B. F. Keith tom Burke

Tom Burke, the Irish tenor, heads a
| fine program at Keiths this week. A
majority of the singers of the repu-
tation of Mr.. Burke refuse to de-
scend from their classical pedestal to
vaudeville. and usually, when they
do. their stay is very short. With the
wisdom of a Solomon, the tenor last
night placed himself on a level with
his audience, singing airs of sweet
ness and popularity. and the encores
in response to insistent applause
were too numerous to count The
well known song. Little Batiste,"
sung in the broken French dialect,
was one of the best of the evening.
The beauty of the air and words and
the charm of the singer created much
enthusiasm. Another number, the
well known "WhatIl do?" was
rendered quite effectively.

u. S. TO SELECT
ALIENS ABROAD
America No Longer World
Asylum, New Irnmigra-
ton Bill Says.

Washington Is served on
the world that the United States will
no longer be its asylum" and machln-
cry Is provided for the selection on
home grounds in foreign countries OF
all future immigrants in the latest re-
vision of the new immigration restric-
ton bill to be approved within few
days by the house immigration COM
mittee.
The committees report contains sew
eral unexpected features. Among
these is flat charge that the United
States is being "buncoed' by the ac-
tiVities of certain foreign governments
in exporting large numbers OF unde-
sirables to this country. Another IS
the writing into the statute books or
the terms of the more or less intan-
gible sgentleman's agreement" with
Japan.
Republican Leader LongWorth said
he expects to pass the immigration bill
about April 1. Since the redrafting OF
the measure to meet objections raised
by Secretary Of State Hughes, there
has been a decided swing of support
to the bill and Longworth is now con-
fident 1t can be put through with
some changes.
In brief the majority report will set
forth that the bill proposes to change
the quota basis from 1910 to 1890 and
reduce the percentage from 3 to 2, plus
a small base quota for each country.
The count of quotas would be on GER
tifcates and not persons. Overseas
examination Of immigrants is provided.
Wives children under eighteen and
parents over ifty-five of American
citizens would be exempted. The
classes of exempted aliens are re-
duced; the burden of proof is placed
upon the alien instead of upon the
United States, and new means OF les
sening hardships are devised.
In writing the .'gentleman's agree
ment'' into the law, the committee be-
lieves it has paved the way for the
ending without friction to either Japan
or the United States of a vexatious
problem. The provisions of the Taft
treaty of 1911 are virtually used in
the bill.

TELLS OF HUGE
WHISKY CRAFT
New York Druggist Reveals
How Liquor Sales Were
Protected.

Washington.-Start revelations
of liquor graft, involving, among 9TH
ers, some of those who frequented the
little green house" in Washington,
were made before the Daugherty in
vestigating committee by John Goroni,
president of the Alps Drug company
Of New York.
GoronPs story, in it's salient points,
follows:
Payments of SIS a case were made
for permits for the withdrawal of
whisky Four dollars of this was paid
to the 1921 prohibition director; 81
case went to Howard Warrington, one
of Attorney General Daugherty's asso-
ciates ST went to the druggist in
whose name the liquor was with
drawn; 81 went to Goroni; 80 cents
to Assistant United States Attorney
L'Esperance at New York, and $3.50
Of the sum received for each permit
went to VIII A. Orr and Owen Murphy.
Goroni explained that Warrington
had told him he had to split his cut
three ways, some of the money going
to the late Jesse w. Smith, Attorney
General Daughertys middle man.
The prohibition commissioner in
1921, who is said to have shared in
the division of the spoils, was Harold
L. Hart
Goroni revealed that the aggregate
payments for permits amounted to APP
proximately 100000
The witness explained that $4,000
in bills of $1,000 denomination was
collected from "other parties" Among
these was a liquor dealer named John
Lynn, who hanged himself shortly
after the transactions.
'How much of the 100000 was for
liquor| one of the senators asked.
"None at ALL" Goroni replied. 1T
was all for permits"

SENATE CALLS HAYS
ON OIL STOCK GIFT
Hear Sinclair Shares Used
to Pay C. O. p. Deficit.

Washington.-A subpoena for VIII
Ell. Hays, former postmaster general
and Republican national committee
chairman, was issued by the senate
committee when it was reported that
Harry F. Sinclair was connected with
the financing of the Republican party
after his lease Of Teapot Dome.
Information gathered by the COM
mittee indicated that Mr.. Sinclair
turned over 10000 shares of stock in
his oil companies to Mr.. Hays and At
torney General Daugherty. The stock
was to have been sold and the pro-
ceeds used to liquidate the Repub-
lican national committees deficit
which grew out of the 1920 campaign.
At the close of the campaign the
deficit was more than 81 100000. while
less than a year later it had been cut
down to 100000, and 1t was said then
in the inner circle of the party that
the deficit would be eliminated entire
ly if Mr.. Hays would "come through"
Efforts to induce Mr.. Hays to turn
over the money continued for a year,
but were fruitless, it is understood.
According to the story the commit
tee has gathered, Mr.. Hays has been.
associated with Mr.. Sinclair as counsel
since he left the cabinet to become
arbiter of the mot1on-picture industry.
A subpoena also was issued for G.
D. Wahlberg, former confidential secre-
tary to Mr.. Sinclair. Mr.. Wahlberg
will be asked to whom he turned over
certain Liberty bonds.

SINCLAIR TELLS
OF LOAN TO FALL
Oil King Issues Statement
After Refusing to Testify
Before Committee.

Washington Harry F. Sinclair, in q
statement issued after leaving the sem
ate oil committee hearing, where he
refused to testify, admitted that he
lent $4,000 in bonds to ex-Secretary
of the Interior Fall. This is the first
statement of the loan made by Sim
clair since it was announced by the
senate investigating committee.
The loan was made to Fall just be-
fore he left for Russia, in Sinclair'a
employ. Fall was also given $4,000
for expenses.
Sinclair, in his statement, answered
many of the questions he refused to
answer before the committee.
The oil magnate declared he had
paid $1.O0O,OOO to Fred G. Bonfils Of
Denver for alleged claims to Teapot
Dome, lin good faith" He said if
there had been any fraudulent repre-
sensations or blackmail. he would seek
proper redress in the courts.
Sinclair also denied that he had en-
tered into any negotiations with Fall
for the lease of Teapot Dome as early
as March. 1921, the month Fall took
office.
Sinclair bitterly assailed the Roose-
welt family, young Archie and his
brother, Theodore. He said he had
hired Archie and treated him kindly.
sbut he never could and never would
make good'' Arches salary was
raised from $4,000 to $4,000 in short
time, Sinclair said.
Sinclair declared Archie was an att
tempted assassin of my character. .
Sinclair also charged, "it is easy to
be seen that G. D. Wahlberg was
framed by the Roosevelts." Wahlberg
testified he had become suspicious Of
Sinclair and it was this testimony
which first led to unearthing the oil
scandal Wahlberg was former pri-
vate secretary to Sinclair.
Hays Tells of Contribution
That Harry f. Sinclair, oil magnate
and lessee of Teapot Dome naval re-
serve, contributed $4,000 toward the
Republican committee campaign de-
felt after the 1920 elections was the
admission wrung from Will Hays, for
mer chairman of the committee, by
the senate oil Investigators
After denying vigorously that Sin
clair oil stock had been turned over
to the national committee to liquidate
the deficit, Hays revealed that money
instead of stock was the contribution
of the oil man.
Hays further testified that the Lib
erty bond transaction effected between
G. D. Wahlberg, secretary to Sinclair,
and a man named "Hayes" -testifed
to be Wahlberg when the latter was
before the committee some time ago
might have been a personal transao-
ton between his brother, Hinkle Hays
and Harry Sinclair.
While Hays testimony created the
outstanding sensation of the oil hear
ing Saturday, Sinclair himself provid-
ed some excitement. He defed the
committee, refusing to answer any
question ION advice of counsel and
later the committee announced he
would be cited for contempt.
