Colossal Infdnly"

CIXTEEN months ago Senator Walsh
~ wormed out of II. l.. Doheny the
startling information that he had secretly
delivered n little black bag containing
100000 TO Secretary of the Interior Fall,
while the two of them were in the midst
of negotiations for naval oil leases.
That was the high spot in the Teapot
Dome investigation. The country suddenly
awoke TO the full significance of the
sordid story which the senate committee
had been unfolding little by little for
some months before Doheny was trapped.
But as time wore on, and as Dohenys
and Harry Sinclair's commercial relations
with Fall receded into the past. the public
was deluged with propaganda from the oil
magnates' headquarters to the effect that
the oil investigation was nothing but pol
ltlcs, that once the oil cases were re-
moved from the biased atmosphere Of the
senate, Doheny and Sinclair would stand
revealed as patriots who had done the
country great service. The public was
asked to withhold judgment until the
court had spoken
And now the court has spoken A fed
eral Judge, after many months of study
OF the Doheny lease, has found that "the
injury done the nation can not be over
estimated This colossal infamy, regard
less Of whether IL was bride, gift or
a loan, requires this court in conscience
TO strike down the deals which are con-
nected with it."
And what is Doheny's answer? He in
structs his lawyers to appeal to still
higher courts. And yesterday Doheny,
after being reindicted in Washington for
alleged conspiracy against the govern
ment, could only take refuge behind his
old plea that the oil cases were born
of politics"
The lease which Judge Mccormick has
ruled fraudulent was made over three
years ago. The delays of the law have
been extensively resorted to to postpone
judicial action
But, still it is heartening to know that
even at this late day the court is placing
its judicial stamp of disapproval on what
all intelligent and fair-minded men d.
vined from the beginning to be one Of
the baldest pieces of malfeasance in the
history of the government.
The Sinclair lease decision and the
criminal trials Of Fall, Doheny and Sin
clair are next in order.

Takinq the ~ Ont Of Aircraft

Taking the Air ont of AircrdJ
no our eyes deceive us or can il be
II that at last we are really 90 reach
the end of our perennial aircraft scandal?
For some years now there has been
far more AIR" than aircraft in this coun-
try, rs one congressional investigation has
succeeded another.
Now, il appears, committee of
congress plans to recommend that a COM
petent board of engineers be appointed
to clear up the muddle and outline n
program for us TO follow.
This board, we understand is 20 be
composed of experts of such high stand
ing and known diSintereStedneSs that its
findings can not be questioned.
This paper welcomes the news. We
have long advocated just such a step, and
for several reasons.
In the first place if the country is TO
have adequate national defense, il must
have an adequate air force. Aircraft will
play far bigger role in the next war;
both on land and sea, than it did in the
last.
In the second place it is perfectly plain
that something is the matter with our
aviation. Just what is wrong is not quite
so clear. But we can, and should,
find out
The way to find out, however, is not
the way congress has gone about it thus
far. Some of the Investigations have
had politics, not the truth about aviation,
as their objective. Others have merely
given a chance to aircraft enthusiasts,
or aircraft scofferS, to parade their
widest hopes, fears and opinions rs
scientific facts.
During the World War the country
called to its aid its best scientific brains
to help win it. Thomas Edison and
scores of others were conscripted. II
our understanding of what the latest
congressional committee has in mind is
correct, then some such solution to the
aircraft puzzle is now intended
II so, more power TO the committees
elbow.

Campers Hotels

GONE years ago nationally known
~ writer, after touring across the coun-
try in his car, said that the great need
of the motor tourist is a chain of hotels
scattered thruout the country. The idea
was impractical as it appealed to the
cultivated tastes of this de luxe camper.
In its place are coming tourist hotel
camps where rows of neat little cottages
are offered at reasonable rates to the
tourist who does not want to sleep out
in the open but who has all equipment
for camp life.
Two of these already have opened
along Victory highway and are receiving
liberal patronage. As long as they are
operated decently and in a business-like
way they will prove an asset to the COM
munity. But being of public nature,
with a transient patronage, abuses and
vices are apt to develop. There should
be an immediate effort to provide proper
police regulation, for the benefit of pa
irons of the places as well as the owners.
