OIL CASE JURORS
Resentment Possible--But

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-They tell
a story here about the last District
Of Columbia jury that was locked
up as the Fall-Doneny Jury Is now
being locked UP.
1t was an important case and
there was great public interest. The
turynlen were virtual prisoners for
several weeks.
When it came time for them to
take much time to mediate. In five
minutes they were back in court,
and their verdict was mot guilty"
They say it was rumored about
the court that bitter feeling toward
the prosecution for causing their
confinement inspired the verdict
Defense counsel for Albert B. Fall
and E. L. Doheny apparently be-
lieve that the jury hearing their
case Is going to react in the same
way and allow resentment at the
Government to govern their verdict.

vince Congress that it is not. but
will avoid long debate If possible.
Opposition to the project comes
from several sources.
Arizona claims all the waters Of
the Colorado River and her repre-
sentatives are working against the
bill
Private power companies, partic-
ularly in the West, however, offer
the most bitter opposition. Western
companies have filed applications for
all power sites on the Colorado and
want to keep the Government out
of the southwestern power market.
Their cotention is supported by all
enemies of public ownership.

made 1t clear to the Jurymen that it
was the prosecution that had
brought this about.
Missed Thanksgiving
The youthful jurymen have al
ready been kept away from their
homes on Thanksgiving. There is a
strong probability that they will
still be prisoners at Christmas.
When this same case was present
ed before Judge Paul J. Mccormick
Of Los Angeles in a civil suit for can
collation. of the Elk Hills lease, thir-
t. days were consumed in setting
forth the two sides Of the case.
If the same time were required
here, that would run the trial to
within three days of Christmas. But
already time has been lost selecting
a jury, and arguing what 1t shall
and shall not be permitted to hear.
At the end of the trial, the judge
must instruct the jury, and time
must be allowed for verdict by that
body. On the other hand, the time
may be reduced somewhat by night
and Saturday sessions, which the
court has indicated it will hold.
When the jury came into court af-
ter its Thanksgiving exile it did not
look resentfui or abused. 1t has been
amusing itself by organizing into n
glee club, and sounds as If 1t were
in good spirits.
Big Thing for Jury
After all, this trial, with its incon-
veniences, is a big thing for these
young men.
They are clerks and truck drivers
and steamf1tters. They earn small
salaries.
But now, suddenly, they have be-
come important.
They possess power over a man
worth many millions of dollars, that
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-12-03

is greater than the power Of all
those millions. They are going to
mete out punishment or absolution
to a man who has been intimate with
a President and has himself sat in a
seat of authority
This Is the nearest to greatness
that these young men will, in all
probability, ever come.
1t seems more probable that they
wilkrelish their brief moment on the
heights than be resentful over it.
