Magnate Late Today or
Monday.
By KENNETH CLARK.

An indictment charging Harry F.

the Teapot Dome oil lease. with
contempt of the United States Sen
ate. probably win be handed down
here late today or Monday.
A grand jury, whose life expires
Monday, today examined the evi.
dence In the case, aud heard from
an array Of Government: counsel a
plea that the oil magnate be in
dicted. The Governments case was
presented by Atlee Pomorene and
owen j. Roberts, the Governments
special oil counsel, and Peyton Cor.
don, district attorney.
Sinclatr's attorneys declared to-
day he would fight the case to the
United States Supreme Court If an
Indictment is returned, and the
question OF q Senate committee's
power thus be determined for all
time. They commended that it ID
ridiculous and unlawful" for q
Senate committee to compel wit
ness to testify to matters which
are already in the hands Of the
courts.
The Senate oil Investigators did
not meet today. When they resume
their investigation next week they
win delve further into the financing
OF the Republican campaign Of
1920, and Senator Walsh declared
he expected to produce several wit
nesses who would corroborate the
story Of Al Jennings, ex-train rob
Der, that Jake Hamon, late Okla
homa political boss, paid $1,000, 00(

Washington Whispers
By POLLY PRY-.

Here's epot news. The oil COM
mittee spoke of 'oil'' yesterday.
l thought It was rather fitting,
but the public walked out in dis
gust, deprived Of Its scandal. AS
remarked to Senator Adams
after the hearing, "Wssn't 1t kill
ing how bored tho spectators got
when they did not hear any back
stairs gossip or personal mud
singing oratorical contests?"
Brother John Walsh" was
brought into the llmelight when
he appeared on the witness stand
in answer to Spencer's subpoena.
I'll bet he will give his brother
the Senator a dressing down for
getting him mixed up in it when
they get home. Brother John

They do say that Brother
John" Ia the master mind" in
the Walsh family, but the only
way 1 noticed his alleged supe-
riority was that ne exhibited bet
ter control Of his temper. Only
preliminary questions were asked
him, but be gave his address
meekly for the next subpoena
which Senator Spencer promised
him.
Prays for Subpoena.
I am just praying that some
body will suggest my name for a
Senate subpoena. Not that I
know anything about the oil scan
dial, because the only stocl6 ! own
is the Pennsylvania railroad stock,
which pays me the large annual
income Of $12. / never met any
of the principals mentioned, but

Coolidge at a reception and at

Eat homes" I do not know
whether that would make me
eligible for a subpoena or not.
The reason / want q subpoena
Is that unless you are in one OF
the camps Of the oil investigation,
either as investigated or investiga-
tor, you might as well depart from
from the Capital City, for no one
wants uninteresting people at
their parties. The only hope you
have, If you are entirely out of
the "oil" is to know some one
who knows "all about It" but Is
afraid to tell for fear Of being in
Nolved.
/ must admit my sympathies
were somewhat with those who
left in disgust. Fancy going to
an oil investigation and not hear
ing at least a detective version
Of how "violet eyed lady slipt
down the back stairs Of a high
officials house." That is the
very least we have been led to
expect. Having trained us to

that must have been born Of a

His was the pedagogic air and
he conducted a class in oil, the
senators becoming temporarily

his oil school. There may have

Senator Walsh seemed to regard
his remarks as Soporific after
all his excitement during his fight
with Senator Spencer. o, yes,

Spencer was awfully sarcastic to
Senator Walsh and Walsh kept
getting madden and madden until
I was almost afraid his Irish
temper would explode again and
poor Senator Spencer be carried
out on a litter.

AUTOMOBILES OR BOOZE

Pueblo Chieftain:-
Late statistics show that SIS per
cent of the automobiles in the world
are owned by the United States. This
is wonderful fact. It means that
the American people, because Of their
possession and mastery Of this and
other labor-saving machines, are able
to do more and therefore to have more
than the people Of any other country
in the world.
The automobile is something more
than q machine to increase production
and business efficiency. II is an in
strument Of pleasure, that surpasses
the means Of pleasure possessed by
the people Of any other country, an
cient or modern. Think Of the pleas
ures and Injuries Of Rome or other
classic cities, of London, or Paris or
any other modern capital, but our own
end compare their pleasures, Injuries,
dissipations, il you will, with the
American delights Of gasoline, the
smooth surfaced road and the rolling
wheel.
It is the outlawing Of the saloon and
Of alcohol that has made II possible
for the people Of the United States to
own 65 per cent Of all the automobiles
in the world, and to use them for busi-
ness and for pleasure, in a manner
that has never been recorded else
where ut any time.
