QUAKES SHAKE NORWAY,
BUT FAIL TO REGISTER
Some So Violent People Rush From
Homes, But Seismographs
Reveal No Traces.

BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
OSLO, February NORWAY hitherto
has been free of earthquakes, but
during the past week repeated quakes
have been felt In the central and
eastern part of the country. in the
Numedal. Hallingdal and Valdres val
leys Occasionally they were so
violent that the people had to leave
their homes.
The seismographs have registered
no earthquakes, to the bewilderment
of biologists. With the exception of
minor shocks, on the west coast,
earthquakes have been so infrequent
in Norway that there Is no record of
such happenings either in the Sagas
or in the writings OF modern times.
There are no eruptive mountains in
Norway.

THREATENED PULP
EMBARGO SCORED
Publishers Tell Borah Cana
dian Move is Obvious
Class Legislation.

A brief has been filed with Chair
man Borah Of the Senate foreign rela-
tions committee by the National Pub
fishers Association. protesting against
what it claimed was a threatened en-
barge on pulpwood by Canadian paper
manufact cturers, and asking what is tc
be the reaction against an embargo
which is obviously class legislation
such an embargo as that pro-
posed by the Canadian mill owners,
the brief said, will have the effect
not only of crippling the pulpwood
industry in the United States, but
also of giving Canadian manufac-
turers control of our paper market
thereby increasing the cost to every
user of the printed word in the
United States.
Mask of Conservation.
Under the mask of forest conser-
yation, Canadian manufacturers are
trying to force the Dominion govern
ment to stop the expectation of pulp
wood They are trying to
force American operators to move
their mills into Canada. where the
wood would be transformed into pulp
for the paper mills here. That much
accomplished. the next step would be
to embargo pulp, thus forcing
Americans to make their paper in
the Dominion and under the domina-
tion of the Canadian paper industry
The brief declared the continued
propaganda put forth by the Canadian
paper manufacturers, If carried to ar
extreme, will certainly result in
seriously interrupting the friendly
relations which have for so many
years existed between Canada and
the United States

SINCLAIR COUNSEL
HIT SENATE POWER
Argue Before Justice HoehI.
ing on Right of Client to
Refuse Answers.

Congress would strongly oppose an
attempt of President Coolidge to eX-
ercise a power asserted by the Senate
in its efforts to compel Harry f. Sim
clair. lessee of Teapot Dome, to lay
bare his private business before a
Senate committee. declared Martin
w. Littleton of New York and George
p. Hoover of Washington, counsel for
SINCLAIR, in their argument today be-
fore the District Court of Appeals to
set aside the action of Justice Adolph
A. Hoehling of the District Supreme
Court requiring Sinclair to answer
six of the ten counts of an indictment
charging him with contempt of the
United States Senate.
Counsel contended that IL Congress
has the right in the performance of
Legislative functions to inquire into
the private business of citizens,
like power could be exercised by the
Chief Executive in determining
whether TO veto a measure, and he
could compel members of Congress TO
appear before him and inquire into
the motives underlying their votes on
the proposed law. No such power has
eversbeen asserted by any President,
they said. but If it were II would
meet with strong opposition from
Congress.
Deny Scnate's Right.
The lawyers Insisted the Senate had
no such right to probe the private
business of citizens and claimed that
even if such power should be con-
ceded it could only be exercised in
furtherance of legislation and not
in an endeavor to elicit information
which might be used in litigation
The proceedings in the committee
meeting, counsel declared, made II
plain that Mr.. Sinclair was being in
terrogated regarding the leases OF
the naval petroleum reserves and the
committee. or some members of IT.
were seeking to elicit information
which might aid the United States in
prosecuting Jan equity suit for the
cancellation of the leases. The law
years averred that the claim of the
committee that 1t was looking for in
formation to assist 1t in the perform
ance of it's legislative functions was
not made in good faith
Atlee Pomerene and Owen J. Rob-
erts, special counsel in the oil pros
ecutions, defended the ruling OF
Justice Hoehling and asserted tina,
Congress had the right to ask the
questions which Justice Hoehlins
held to be germane TO the inquiry
then being conducted by the Senate
committee. The power of Congress
to compel answers to its legitimate
inquiries during legislative investi-
cations was asserted by counsel fol-
the Government Even if there be nc
specific law granting this power, they
asserted, it has been exercised by

Answering the argument of Gov
ernment counsel, SincIair's lawyers
urged that the Constitution of the
United States is a law for the rulers
and people, equally In war and In
peace, and covers with the shield of
its protection all classes of men. at
all times, and under all circumstan ances
and that no doctrine involving more
pernicious consequences was ever
invented by the wit OF man than that
any of its provisions can be suspended
during any Of the great exigencies of
government. They denied that any
such power could ever originate in
usage, and that inasmuch as no such
power is conferred upon the Senate
by the Constitution, 1t did not exist.
They further pointed out that Con-
gress has never, by practice or Gus
tom, adopted the policy of coercion of
citizens and search and seizure to aid
it in Its discharge of legislative du-
ties; that Congress by its practice and
custom in the making of laws over
whelmingly excludes tho claim of a
right to coerce citizens to testify and
produce private books and papers in
respect to legislative enactments
from time to time introduced in Con-
greSs.
