ney for the distict, and NJ. J. Dowd
chief engineer of the district
1--WE are going into the upper
basin and consult with some of the
state leaders, simply that they may
understand the California point of
view," Pound said before leaving.
California has always taken an
fair attitude toward
the other states and when the Cali
tornia position has been understood
no difficulty has been encountered.
these other states are
very dcsirous of protecting their
future water rights. 1t is only
proper that they should be, and
certainly California has never had
any desire to stand in the way of
that protection.
California has on every occa-
sion conceded every request OF any
of the upper basin states that
would farther protect them. Every
they have ever suggest
cd to the Swing johnson bill for
their protection has been written
into it and Yet there are those who
are less Informed that still think
California is trying to be selfish.
We hope by this trip to clear away
some of those doubts TO the end
that river development may speed
ily go forward and all of the states
be fully protected.

BYRD MAKES Ell 1ABORATE PLANS
FOR FLIGHT OVER SOUTH POLE

. He hopes to be able to confirm
whether an extensive continent ex-
lists or if it is broken up by water
Plans for the trip are still uncer
tain, he said but he is thinking Of
trying to land at the pole with one
of the two planes to be taken on
the expedition, provided that recon
noitering before the final takeoff
shows the possibility of landing
and taking off at the pole without
great danger.
Bernt Balchen who will be one of
Byrd $ companions on the trip, al
ready has offered to land at the
pole and keep the motor turning
slowly while All attempt is made by
others in the party to find traces of
previous expeditions to the pole.
That feature of the flight, how
ever, will depend largely on the
weather at the time the flight over
the pole is made.
Premier Raymond Poincare to;
day personally decorated Byrd
with the rosette of an officer of.
the Legion of Honor-a degree
higher in the legion than that ac-
corded Colonel Charles Lindbergh.

[)0HENYS
AND fall.
LOSE OUT
Must Stand Trial For
Bribery in Oil Lease
Scandal.
TRIAL DATE LATER
Believe Case Will Not
Come Before Courts
Until October.
BY United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, July 6.-For-
mer Secretary of the Interior Al
bert B. Fall, Edward L. Doheny,
ST., oil magnate, and his son, E. L..
Doheny, Jr., must stand trial On
bribery charges in connection with
the famous 100000 oil transaction
of November 80, 1921, Justice Will
liam Hitz ruled in District of Co.
iumbia supreme court today.
Eitz overruled denurrers inter
posed by the three defendants at
tacking two indictments as invalid.
No date was set for trial. Due to
the summer recess. 1t IS unlikely
the trial will start before the Oc-
tober term.
One indictment charged the two
Dohenys with giving the 100000
to Fall, then secretary. The other
charged Fall with accepting the
same alleged bribe, intended to i'll
fluence his official acts.
Justice Hitz stated the grounds
upon which the indictments were
attacked were faulty. The oil men
argue that since President Hard
ing's executive order, transferring
naval oil reserve jurisdiction to the
interior department was invalid,
Fall was unauthorized to lease Elk
Hills oil reserve to Doheny's COM
pany, hence that since he had no
official power to act, he could not
be bribed to do something he was
pOwerless to do.
Hitz said both Fall and the Do
henys acted on the assumption that
the Harding order was invalid and
hence that a crime could be charg
ed.
Created Sensation
The revelation of the 100000
transfer which young Doheny
brought to Washington in fam
Gus satchel described as the little
black bag, or "a brown satchel, "
created sensation when it was
disclosed in 1923 by the senate oil
investigating committee.
Doheny admitted he gave the
money but said it was a personal
loan between friends. Fall gave as
security a personal note, which was
torn in two by Doheny as half of
it was given to Mrs. Doheny to
"protect Fall from embarrassment
in ease anything should happen to
u.s.
The elder Doheny and Fall al
ready have been acquitted Of con-
spiracy charges involving the $780,
900 transaction and Falls lease Of
the rich Elk Hills river in Califor-
mia to Doheny's Pan American oil
companies.

PARIS, July 6.-America and
the rest Of the world may be able
to hear by radio Commander Rich
ard f. Byrd announce from his
plane the moment he and his com
panions fly over the south pole next
December.
Byrd, discussing his plans for
the south pole adventure, disclosed
today that he has ordered power
full radio for the plane in which he
will make the flight.
A few minutes before he takes
off from the edge of the Antarctic
ice field south Of New Zealand to
fly across the pole he will notify
radio stations so they will be ready
to pick up his message when he
reaches the pole.
Byrd intends to take with him
portable radio sets to be installed
at his jumping off and his landing
bases at the other end of the polar
flight.
Thus, in case snow storms pre-
vent his navigator from taking
bearings from the sun, Byrd hopes
to be able to cross-check his posi-
tion by taking radio bearings from
two directions.
However spectacular may be the
idea of talking to the world while
flying across the mythical pole,
Byrd's principal interest in the
flight is scientific. He hopes
through the flight to be able to fill
in maps which at present give only
a sketehy outline of the south polar
regions.

United Press Staff C0TTespondeI

RAPID CITY, s. D., July g.
The 'ticklish though not critical
state of Mexican affairs and pro-
blems which may follow the ex-
pected resignation of James R.
Sheffield, Ambassador to Mexico
were presented to president Cool
idge today by news that Sheffield
would arrive here tonight for con-
ference.
a year ago Sheffield came to Paul
Smiths, n Y, where the president
was on his vacation and urged upon
the chief executive more string
cnt policy toward Mexico. Since
that time relations have been dis
turbed by refusal of Mexico to fol-
low the wishes of the United States
in her land law situation.
Likewise, expulsion of certain
Catholic clergy from that country
has resulted in protests from the
Knights Of Colum bus and other
Catholic organizations in this coun-
tiV.
Those close to the president here
make no secret of their belief that
Sheffield will resign and that Mr..
Coolidge will accept his resignation.
His health has not profited by the
climate of Mexico City. He wanted
to resign last year but was urged
to stay SO that policies then con
tcmplated could be developed.
Sheffield s health Is unimproved
and while Mr.. Coolidge is portrayed
as being entirely sympathetic with
all the work the Ambassador has
been doing there, the chief execut-
i've has indicated that he believes
the present situation will permit
