Attacks Daniels.
A sharp attack on Josephus Dan
iels was made by Mr.. Doheny in dis
cussing the policies Of the former
Navy secretary in refusing to lease
the reserves.
"Mr Daniels knew there were big
companies on the outside taking oil
out" he said, "and that to lease the
lands would prevent them taking it
out.
"Do you think he was protecting
the big companies ?" asked the big
companies.
'That,s what said--take it or
leave it just as you please" returned
Doheny.
"Just what company do you believe
Secretary Daniels was trying to pro-
tect?"
"The Standard Oil company. He
never interfered with them taking
oil out just as fast as it would come"
Note Presented.
A note from which the signatures
had been torn was presented to the
senate committee by Mr.. Doheny
when the committee reopened it's
hearing as evidence Of the loan to
Mr.. Fall. 1t was dated at Washing
ton, Nov. 30, 1921, and was made pay
able on demand. MIR. Doheny said
that he believed it to be the hand
writing Of the former interior secre-
tary.
Explaining the absence of the sig
natures Mr.. Doheny said he and Mrs.
Dcheny had agreed to "tear it in
half, each to retain part" so thai
collection would not be forced by an
executor in the case of himself and
Mrs. Doheny. He said the loan was
"an accommodation one" and it was
not desired that it's collection be
forced. The witness said that Mrs,
Doheny had retained the signature
and he had retained the other part
He added that a larch had made made
for the part bearing the signature
but it could not be found.

Digestive Attack

CORNER STONE OF COMMERCE

Fire insurance has long been
called the hand maid of commerce"
but recently President H. H. Smith
of the board of fire under writers
rang a new phrase on the matter by
making it the cornerstone of COM
merce"
The public usually thinks of fire
insurance as protection against loss
of physical property by fire. The part
played by insurance through the in
vestment of its reserves and cash as
sets in other business and industries
is not frequently mentioned. Secre-
tary Louis T. Moore of the Whining
ton, North Carolina. chamber of
commerce called attention to the in
vestment side of insurance when
writing a letter of appreciation to
Carolina Insurance company which
submitted the most favorable Of Is
bids received for 100000 in City of
Wilmington bonds.
There is no difference between in
surance assets helping to upbuild a
great industry and helping to build
a great city, In both cases assets
that stand behind the protection to
business or community are used to
enlarge productive enterprise.
Thus, does insurance become the
cornerstone of commerce" referred
to by President Smith. Without in
surance today, the basis of CONNER
cial credit would be practically wiped
out Anything that interferes with
sound insurance policies automatical-
" weakens our credit structure.

SOME RADIO FACTS

Few people need to be told how
rapidly radio is penetrating every
part of our daily life. A writer has
contributed to June Century a most
comprehensive article on the subject.
More than 100000, perhaps s.
100000 radio sets have been manu-
factured and sold in the last three
years n this country with $50 broad
casting stations in operation in the
United States and 10000 amateur
transmitters send and receive by
radio.
According to engineers of the ra-
dlo corporation, 5000 manufacturers
are turning out parts or sets, 80 ra-
dio magazines have been started.
$50 books have been written, 10000
listeners constitute the present radio
audience and these spent S175,000,-
600 on their hobby last year, giving
employment in one way or another
to 100000 persons, There are IL
trans-oceanic stations which commu-
nicate not only with Europe and La
tin America but with 2700 radio
equipped ships.

In a talk which consumed less
than five minutes Mr.. Young paint
ed a word picture which impressed
on his listeners the wonderful posi-
biIities before the nation. His simple
statements which any school boy
can understand should be an inspira-
