when the contest closes. II
there is anyone in Chicago who
can pass this mark for indi-
viduals, he will have to do
some tall hustling.
Comrade PLAY, the mystery con-
testant no longer mystery, now
holds second place with score Of
1873. This can surely be considered
good average for the past ten
days, when PLAY started on the job.
While for a few days he threatened
Heinrichson for first place, he is
now in the position Of himself being
pushed to maintain second place.
With only six points to her credit
five days ago, Anna Fox Of the Dou-
glas Park English Branch is now
almost on the verge of passing the
100 mark.
Second place is by no means de-
cided. PLAY and Anna Fox are close.

The way the Douglas Park Eng

Investigators were so aroused they
threatened to carry the matter to

BURNS THINKS HIS
STOOLPICEONS
FINEST IN WORLD
No Body of Men Like
Them, He Says
BY LAURENCE TODD
tai Correspondent Of the Federated Press

tStAn Correspondent Of the Federated Press
WASHINGTON, March 7.-Brag-
ging, clustering, sneering in turn,
with the arrogant assurance of a
plantation foreman welding a black
snake whip, Detective Burns, direc-
tor bureau Of investigations, depart.
ment of justice, faced Senator Walsh
Of Motnana across the table of the
senate committee on public lands and
declared that he would have been
"glad and eager to make an honest
investigation" Of the oil scandal if
anyone had asked him.
Of the detective force under his
control, in the bureau, he loudly an
nounced that they were "the finest,
cleanest investigating organization
in the world" equal to any task, and
made up of "fine, straight, homes
clean men,"
His Agents Perjury.
He seemed so anxious to have this
statement accepted, and so uncon-
WINGED that anybody present believed
him, that Senator Dill of Washington
felt compelled to ask him whether he
read the testimony of his special
agent, Mclean, owner Of the Wash
ington Post, which amounted to a
confession that Mclean had commit
ted perjury in an attempt to mislead
the senate as to the Fall-Doheny cor
ruption payment.
Dill then asked him whether he
were quite sure of the honesty, pu-
rity and veracity of his staff. To
which the detective replied, that Nc
Lean was "only one of these dollar
a-year fellers; they don't amount to
much anyhow"
Burns Go-Between.
Mrs. Jessie Duckstein, special
agent under Burns since last Novems
Der, and for two years previously
his confidential secretary, told how
she had been called to Burns office
on Feb. 2 and told to inform her
husband, who is private secretary to
Mclean, in Palm Beach, that sena-
tors were inouiring into McLean's
being special agent of the depart
ment Of justice. She was to hint
that Mclean should resign.
She, took from Burns office a copy
Of the secret code used in ordinary
business in the bureau, and for the
first time in her life sent a message
in that code. The message read:
Special inquiries being made spe-
cial agent department of justice;
Burns thinks this important informa-
tion."
Mclean Still Agent.
Members Of the committee were
skeptical as to these words being de-
signed to say that McLean's status
as a special agent was being inves-
tigated. Burns, however, supported
the testimony of his special agent,
and said that he had thought to have
the hint of resignation conveyed to
Mclean in order that "none of this
Teapot Dome should be hung on the
attorney general; he had troubles
enough of his own" He confessed
that Mclean is still a special agent
and has a code book.
Francis H. McAdoo, son Of w. G..
McAdoo, sprung a sensation when he
testified that A. Mitchell Palmer was
described to him in a letter from
Mclean, his client, as being attorney
for Fall and Sinclair, as we'll as for
Mclean. Palmer, on the stand, a
few days ago, testified that he never
was counsel for either Fall or Sin
clair.
