HOW DID BOON
COMP PANION OF
DAUCHERTY DIE?
Ex-Wife Believes Death
Not Self-Inflicted
I.AIIRFNcE rnnn

| (StaR Correspondent of the Federated Pressl
WASHINGTON, March 25.-Was
jess Smith, inseparable companion Of
Attorney General Daugherty, a sui
eide, or was he murdered, in Daugh-
erty's apartment in the Wardman
Park hotel a year ago?
That was the issue inferentially
raised in the Wheeler investigation
of Daugherty's record when Roxie
Stinson, former wife Of Smith, came
back to the witness stand to tell that
she was framed by friends of the at
torney general when they feared that
she would talk too much about
Daugherty.
QuarreIs With Daugherty.
On the witness stand she declared
that Jess was in deadly fear of an
expose of affairs in Daugherty's S
apartment, and also that he was in
extreme fear of physical danger to
himself and to her for some time be-
fore his death. She testified that he
had always been afraid of firearms,
and had forbidden her to possess a
revolver, yet on the Friday before
his death in Washington, he had
bought a revolver after a quarrel
with Daugherty at the "shack" where
they were staying near Washington
Court House, Ohio.
Senator Wheeler, by a series of
questions, drew from the witness the
statement that she observed no pow
der marks around the bullet wound
in his temple when she saw his body
prior to the funeral; that Smiths
doctor had fatty denied the state
ment brought to her by Nal Daugh-
erty, brother Of the attorney gen.
eral, that Smiths wound due to an
operation for appendicitis a year be-
fore was found TO be fully open after
his death. In her own statement of
her defiance of both Daughertys she
said: Harry Daugherty is not going
to strongarm me and / am not going
to have convenient bullet thru my
head"
Can IL Be Murder?
Daugherty spent the night at the
White House prior to the death of
Smith which occurred early in the
morning. No inquest was held, altho
bruises appeared on the body and
there have been stories that the
apartment was in disorder.
Thus far the word murder" has
not been suggested in the senate
hearings, but the implication of Roxie
Stinson's testimony was that she
feared his death was not self-inficted.

OIL is The ISSUE
in so. DAKOTA
PRIMARY BATTLE
Teapot Scandal Echoes
Heard

! SIOUX FALLS, So. Oak, March 25.
I-Meager returns were coming in to-
night in the states presidential prim-
airy.
The voters expressed presidential
choice in the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties, and the Farmer-Labor
Party may have Robert M. LaFollette
written in as choice of the new Third
Party yet to be formed.
Nominees for u. S. senator, gov
ernor and other state offices also are
to be named by the three parties.
The struggle between President
Coolidge and Hiram Johnson for the
Republican nomination for president,
and the election of delegates to the
national convention and presidential
electors is the outstanding contest of
the primary.
Senate Fight.
Of equal Importance to South Da-
kotans is the fight between "gasoline
governor" W. H. McMaster and the
veteran Thomas Sterling for the nomi-
nation for U. s. senator in the Re-
publican party.
Robert M. LaFollette also figures
in the Republican primary, many be-
lieve. Many voters are expected to
pass up the candidates appearing on
the ballot and write in the name of
the Wisconsin senator for president.
Oil figured two ways in today's
primary. Governor McMaster, whose
fight on Standard Oil last summer
forced gasoline prices down IL cents
thruout the middle west, made the
charge that George ]. Danforth, man.
ager Of the campaign for Senator
Sterling, was employed by the Stan
dard Oil Co., in an attempt TO 'break"
McMaster.
Oil Scandal Issue.
Both McMaster and Senator Hiram
johnson, who have been supporting
each other in the primary race, have
laid great stress on the Teapot Dome
and other scandals in Washington.
President Coolidge was the choice of
the Republican state convention last
December before the deluge Of oil in
vestigations broke loose.
President Coolidge and Senator
Sterling, considered as running mates,
are expected TO poll heavy vote in
the cities. Governor McMaster and
Senator Hiram Johnson will divw
most Of their support from the coun-
try.
LaFollette has no opposition for the
Fermentation nomination, and II Is
believed many who otherwise would
vote the Farmer-Labor ticket will
step over into the Republican prim-
ary to cast their votes for LaFoilette.
William Gibbs McAdoo is unopposed
for the presidential Endorsement Of |
the Democratic primary, but there are
bitter contests for state Office nomina- |
tions.

MORE OF FALL
DOUGH STILL
is MYSTERY
BaftIGd PTObGTS Are After His
Son. -In-LaW


WASHINGTON, d. c., Mar.
Ex-senator Thomas Walsh,
Montana, today introduced a
resolution in the senate asking
the house of representatives to
begin impeachment proceed
ings against c. c. Chase, coli
Iector Of customs at Ell Paso,
Texas, and son-in-Iaw of Albert
B. Fall.
Chase yesterday refused to
testify before the oil investigat-
ing committee on the ground
that he might incriminate him
self.
The Walsh resolution charged that
Chase had entered into a conspiracy
with Albert B. Fall to mislead the
committee as to the origin of the
100000 loan which enabled the
former secretary of the interior to
purchase the Harris ranch in New
Mexico.
It further charged that Chase
had endeavored to get Price McKin-
ney of Cleveland to testify that he
had loaned Fall the money.
Walsh asked that "the resolution
be transmitted 70 the house to-
gether with a copy of testimony in
the case in order that the house
might inaugurate such proceedings
against Chase as may be .appro-
pirate.
The senate oil committee today
endeavored to trail to its source
a mysterious $32, ,0O0 with which Al
bert ,. Fall purchased ranch prog
critics in New Mexico after the Tea
pot Dome lease was negotiated.
The committee examined M. d.
Thatcher, president of the First
National Bank of Pueblo, Colo, and
trustee Of the Thatcher estate, with
whom Fall had financial dealings.
Thatcher said Fall had from time
to time borrowed $102,200 from his
concerns but could not account for
the $4,000 with which Fall testified
he had purchased properties after
he invested the 100000 he obtained
from Doheny in another property.
"The testimony Of Thatcher
proves that Fall got $4,000 from
some source not yet revealed to the
committee" Senator Walsh, Mon
tana, declared following Thatcher's
testimony.
Banker Is Witness.
Mahlan D, Thatcher, president Of
the First National Bank of Pueblo,
Colo, in which Fall handled his
New Mexico ranch accounts, was
the first witness before the commit
tee today.
Thatcher denied that his bank
had made a loan to Fall in either
1921 or 1922. Fall told the com
mittee he had arranged for a $780,
600 credit with Thatcher in 1922.
"We made a loan of $4,000 to
Fall in 1916 which was renewed
from time TO time" Thatcher said.
when was it paid off," Walsh
asked.
"May 90, 1922"
This was a month after Fall
granted the Teapot Dome lease TO
Harry Sinclair.
Walsh then read a letter which
Fall sent the committee some time
ago, stating that the Tres Ritaos
Land and Cattle company, of which
Fall is president. had big credit
running up to 100000 with the
Thatcher estate.
"How much does this company
owe you now?" Walsh asked.
100000"
an small notes from time to time
between January 1921 and July
1928"
Mysterious $4,000.
Thatcher testified that most OF
the advances were made for the
purpose of permitting Fall to de-
Velop his big ranch at Three Rivers.

NEWS STRIKE
Is VOTED BY
N. Y. TYPOS
big Six" Asks Strike Sanction
In ROusIRg Meeting

NEW YORK CITY, Mar. rs.
The oldest and largest typo
graphical union in the world
threw down the gauntlet to the
most powerful combination of
publishers on the face Of the
earth in special meeting held
here in the auditorium of the
Stuyvesant High School, when
the membership Overwhelming
ly voted by secret ballot to re-
quest strike sanction Of the
International Typographical
Union.
Every Daily to Shut Down.
The membership already has
the assurance of Charles p.
Howard, President of the In
ternational Union, that the ex-
ecutive council will back the
membership of New York to
the limit.
This will be the most complete
strike in the daily newspaper field
that has ever been conducted in the
United States. Every daily news
paper IN the city of New York will be
shut down while the struggle pro
ceeds. The composing rooms in all
daily papers are one hundred per cent
organized and those affected are the
advertising compositors, make-up
men, copy cutters, linotype operators,
proof readers and mai'ers.
Negotiations Fail.
Negotiations between ssBir Six and
the publishers have been going on
since December 2, when the union at
special meeting, also held in Stuy-
vesant High School, instructed the
scale committee to demand the estab-
hshment of the six-hour day in all
newspaper offices in the jurisdiction.
Thus the working hours per week
would be reduced from 48 day work
and 40 night work to a fiat 36-hour
week---or six hour day with four
shifts per day, instead of three as at
present. At the same time demand
was made for an increase in wages to
$66.O0 per week for day work ian
increase of $1100) and $72.O0 per
week for night work ian increase Of
$1400).
The counter-proposal of the pub
fishers was a reduction in wages of
from 2 to cents per hour and a
change in shop conditions that would
devitalize the union and make the
compositors abject slaves of every
whim of the publishers as regards
working hours and speed Of work.
Employers Giving Way.
A deadlock was soon reached by the
local scale committee and President
Charles P. Howard was called in. He
succeeded in breaking the stubborn
resistance of the employers and got an
offer of three dollar per week raise
in wages, all other conditions remain
ing the same. This not being a pro-
position Mr.. Howard felt he should
recommend to the union, special
meeting was called for today and
three propositions voted upon. They
were:
Ito accept the proposal of the
employers for a $500 raise.
2-To submit the controversy to
arbitration.
