El senador Thomas j. Walsh, del Co
mite del Petroleo, Sc ha qrejado de
falta de ayuda. Dice que ha tenido
cue ser investigator, fiscal, juez y ju-
rado. Esto indudablemente ha estorba-
do su labor, pero, frente tantos obs
t&culos, ha demostrado un cello y ener-
gia infatigables. FL senador Wheeler,
del Conlite one ipvestiga la conducta
del Procrrador Daugherty, ha comenza-
do paso de carga y ha sido felicitado
hasta la fechs por algunos testigos que
estaban "verdaderamente ansiosos" de
echar fuera cuanto saben y cuanto han
dido. Al conite de Wheeler probable
mente SO lie esperan dias fatigosos, Guam
do los recalcitantes empiecen compa-
recer y ofrecer una verdadera reSis-
tencia. Y no deja de ser curioso que
el Estado de Montana haya proporcio-
nado los dos senadores que han estado

La ciudad dc Washington SO ha visto,
en- las iltimas semanas, llena de un

no termina. Empresarios de box, detec-
tives particulares, estrellas opacas de
la gran Via Blanca de Broadway, null
timillonarios del petroleo, ex-miembros
y funcioEarios del Gabincte... Pero, to-
dos ellos son iguales para el ''molino''
purificadcr del Sepado; todos son arro-
iados entire los engrsnes y los rodillos,
para exprtmirles algo. Estas medernas
investigaciones estan ests bleciendo un
c6digo de etica completamente nuevo
en- la capital.
Ahora, cuando un anfitri6n, sea hom-
bre o mujer, desea mandar una invi-
taci6n a cenar, necesita priinero inves-
tigar desentrsfiar todas cada una

Kasta la fecha Sc ha deiado en- hber-
