THOUGHTS OVER A
TEAPOT

Teapot Dome goes to Sinclair, says
the court. And promptly Sinclair
stocks go up-and Sinclair makes
some more money.
One court says DOheny can't have
Elk Hills. Another court says Sim
clair can have Teapot Dome. Courts
are queer things.
The supreme court will have the
last word on both cases.
Meanwhile the people wait and
wonder.
Meanwhile, also, Albert B. Fall
didn't do anything wrong when he
turned Teapot Dome over to Mr.. Sin
clair. That's another feather in Mr..
Falls cap, which is already fairly
we'll feathered.
Most of us, however, would rather
not have that kind of feathers.
But out of it all this much stands
clear, regardless of any court or all
the courts:
Teapot Dome once belonged to the
people, set aside as naval reserve,
so that the navy might have oil in
the event of some great national
emergency. Now that oil does not
belong to the people. 1t belongs to
Mr. Sinclair That is clear.
Whether Mr.. Fall and Mr.. DENLY
had technical legal right to turn
that great deposit over to Mr.. Sin
ciair, the courts will finally decide.
One court has said they had the right.
But this the people know: Once
they owned that oil; now they do not
own it. And perhaps when, and if
they ever get it back, it will in that
remote day not be worth having!-
