 BECOME ADM|RALS
Navy Dept, Promotes Senn, Leigh, Laws, Day and McNamee
ROBSON NOT ADVANCED
Holds Temporary Rank of Rear Ad- n1irai But Is Official Who Ap- proves Leasing of Naval oil Re- serves.

Washington, June 17 R--Promo- tion to the rank of rear admiral was announced today for Captains Thom- as Jones Senn, Richard Henry Leigh, George William Laws, George Cal win Day and Luke McNamee.
 Robison Not Advanced,
 Captain J. K. Robison, who ap- proved the leasing of the naval oil reserves, and who has been holding the rank Of temporary rear admiral, was not included in the list of those advanced. Secretary Wilbur an- nounced Captain Robison would be kept at his post as chief of the bu- reau of engineering of the navy un- til his term expires in October. The secretary would not predict what post would be assigned to him later.
 Captain Robison failed of promo ton 3 year ago. although at that time he was recommended. His friends, declaring developments in the oil trials had vlndicated him, predicted that he would win higher rank this year.
 The recommendation were made by the naval selection board and Secretary Wilbur and were approved by President Coolidge.
 In recommending promotions the selection board, in addition to Cap tain Robison, passed over the first five ranking captains, and two oth- CT captains little farther down the list. Robson still has a chance for advancement next year, but after that he will be retired by operation of the age limit.
 If Secretary Wilbur should decide later to reappoint him to his pres ent post he could be retired as a rear admiral.
 Captains Passed Over.
 The captains passed over included L. A. Riser, Dewitt Banner, E. T. Pollock. Waldo Evans. R. Belknap, c. F. Preston and w. D. Brotherton, who commanded the battleship Mississippi when the turret explo-

Another Teapot Dome
Chapter

r further evidence was needed to show
| i that the dismissal of the indictments
against Fall, Sinclair and Doheny was based
on mere technicality, and nothing more their
reindictment provides it.
The new indictments are confined to the
conspiracy charges against the oil magnates
and the late Secretary of the Interior. This
does not mean that the charges of bribery
could not be sustained. Those charges could
not again be used as basis for indictments
because the alleged crimes were committed
more than three years ago. The statute of i'm
itations saved the accused men.
Two District of Columbia grand juries
have now listened to a recital of the story of
the leasing Of the naval oil reserves, and both
have decided that Fall, Sinclair and Doheny
should be made to stand trial for alleged con-
spiracy against the public interest
The press agents of the accused men have
frequently stated they have little fear Of the
ultimate outcome of the cases once they are
subjected to the "cold scrutiny" of courts Of
justice.
There have been so many devious chap
ters to the Teapot Dome story and so many
difficulties have been placed in the path of
the Government counsel, that it is to be hoped
the courts will now be given real chance to
turn their cold scrutiny" on the methods en-
ployed by Fall in turning over the oil lands to
Sinclair and Doheny.

PROPER
MONDAY MEALS

"7HE Indiana State Medical
Association. in a recent
IL bulletin. warns people TO
watch their MONDAY meals. Ameri-
cans. 1t declares, are great lovers
of their IL o'clock meal and are
apt to overdo the matter.
Medical sharps are always
taking the joys out OF eating. One
would think from their criticism
that we are a nation of gluttons.
Yet compared with Dutch, Danes,
Germans, and rudy British the
average American hasn't the APP
petite Of canary.
True the American Is more
easily identified by his indigestion
than his accent. But that is less
the result of over-eating than
of consuming his rations in
simultaneously.
The MONDAY meal Of the manual
laborer and farmer is often a
monstrous thing with calories piled
on vitanins as far as the eye can
see. But who can swing a pick or
pitch hay on a nibble Of lettuce?
The lunch Of the average city
man. office worker, professional
and business man is at present
generally a very modest affair.
If such luncheons are danger
Gus, how deadly must have been
the MONDAY meals Of our grand
fathers! They gorged in the
middle of the day and then slept
off the effects. Yet they managed
TO lay the foundation for the coun-
try's present greatness.
OF course a harvest-hand APP
petite and a swivel-chair job aren't
compatible. Still most people will
doubtless follow inside informa-
ton rather than bulletins on the
subject OF monday meals. They
may dig their graves with their
teeth. but it will be pleasant dig
ging.
