Washington. - After introduc-
tion of further testimony of rela.
tive Importance, but which lacked
the thrills of the disclosures of the
last few weeks, the Senate's oil
lease and Daugherty investigating
committees is nearing the end of
the long inquiry trail.
This forecast is given support by a
formal statement issued by Senator
Joseph T. Robinson, Of Arkansas,
minority floor leader of the Senate, in
which he said there was no disposi-
tion on the part of the Democrats "un-
duly to prolong the inquiries"
Senator Robinson. while suggesting
that the investigations are not inter.
fering with Senate legislation, urged
that both parties turn promptly to
legislative matters
Both the naugherty and the oil-lease
committees have additional witnesses
under subpoena and they have yet to
round out several phases Of previous
testimony, but the end is not far dis
tant. The special committee investi-
eating former Attorney-GeneralD Daugh-
erty and the Department Of Justics
intends to carry on its inquiry until
Mr.. Daugherty has had chance to
put in his defense. Should Mr. Daugh-
erty say he has no further interest,

not stand on teehnicalities in the con-
tempt proceedings, but would base his

Teapot Dome lease is now before the
courts for cancellation and has passed

itself in the senate. It seems TO me
that it is the duty of the Democrats

the senate back to Its legislative func-

unavoidable, that four months Of this

Early in the week the committee unan-
