stopped In the midst Of his speech,
raised his hand and declared:
Il charge President Coolidge

The audience sat silent and tense
as the senator went -on to declare
that the president, in keeping ''the
arch criminal, Harry Daugherty," !"
as attorney general during the oil
inquiry, and in failing to turn over
the facilities of the secret service
and grand jury for assistance, had
neglected to do his duty.

ELECTRIC APPLIANCES SHOULD NOT
GIVEN COOKING RATE, RAILROAD
BOARD RULES IN DEVILS LAKE CASE
Burden Of Correcting Situa-
tion Is Left With Utility
Companies, But Warning Is
Given That If They Do Not
Act, the State Board Will

Revision of the practices Of elec-
trio companies furnishing current
for electric cooking stoves and sell
ing such appliances was ordered by
the state railroad board today.
The fact that electric companies
have sold electric stoves with the as
surance to the consumer that other
electric appliances, such as flatirons,
toasters, vacuum cleaners and wash
ing machines could be attached to
them, thus obtaining the low cook
ing rate for the current used, con-
stitutes All abuse, the railroad board
said. The ruling affects every user
of electric current in the state and
more particularly those having cleo
trio appliances.
The decision resulted from the
protest Of the Devils Lake Steam
Laundry and II. j.. Schultz and COM
pany, Devils Lake, that they were
paying more for power than domestic
consumers paid for electricity for
cooking. The cooking rate was
shown to be four cents per XVIII
whereas the power rate was slid
ing scale beginning at TIT cents per
XVIII and grading downward. In its
protest the laundry contcnded that
women could do their washing and
ironing at home and obtain the four
cent rate whereas it had to pay near
ly double for current consumed in
much larger quantity.
Voluntary Action Wanted
Classification Of electric consum-
ers for rate purposes and low rate
for cooking to develop business was
held by the commission to be sound
practice. 1t was further held. how
ever, that "the consumers Of Devils
Lake and other cities, who have pur-
chased and operate electric ranges
upon representations by utilities that
they could attach all appliances and
obtain preferential rates, have been
made parties to a practice which we
believe results in discrimination. We
feel that the burden of correcting
this situation is upon the utility and
not this commission. We will re-
spcctfully direct the attention of the
electric utilities to this recommends
tion and request their earnest con-
sideration with view to voluntarily
taking action. Should the desired
results remain unaccomplished, we
will have no alternative but to in,
vestigate upon our own motion"

SENATE GROUP
STILL IN DARK
ON OILPROFITS
Hays Testimony Throw s
Some Light on Subject,
But Not Enough

Washington, March 2. - R -
While some additional progress has
been made, the senate Teapot Dome
committee still was in quandar to-
day as to the final resting place of
the major portion Of the $3.080, 900
in profits from an overnight oil deal
consummsted in this country by the
Continental Trading company Of
Canada.
Testimony yesterday by Will H.
Hays, former postmaster general,
that Harry F. Sinclair had given
him $3.50, 900 in liberty bonds, but
got back 100000 for use by the
Republican national committee in
1923 after the oil operator had
leased Teapot Dome. led the invcsti-
eating committee to believe it had
ct last partially traced more than q
million dollars Of the profits.
Hays testified yesterday that
Sinclair handed him the $500 900 in
liberty bonds in 1923 after the Con-
tinental had gone out Of business,
but he knew nothing Of the Canadian
company at that time.
Remembering that the former
cabinet officer had testified in 1924
that Sinclair had contributed but
$4,000 toward the Republican def
icit, Senator's Walsh, Democrat,
Montana, and Bratton, Democrat,
New Mexico, questioned Hays close
~ on the point. Hays explained
that since he was not asked before
the court about further amounts and
planned ct the time to return all Of
the money to Sinclair, he did not
volunteer information beyond that
about the SIS, 900 donation.
OF the total, 100000 was re-
turned to Sinclair % not needed,
Hays said, adding that Sinclair had
not contributed during the 1920 cam
paign because Of the national COM
mittee's decision to keep individual
contributions below $1,000. He de-
clared he knew Of no one who had
given as much as Sinclair toward
wiping out the party deficit.

Tweed Sports Coat Is Smart

1t is, indeed, a tweed-clad public
which is cheering the football teams
on to victory. The grandstand dis
play of tweeds is as bewildering in
array of weaves as it is in unuSualness
of color The new tweeds feature first
and foremost browns in combination
with yellow followed by wondrous
wine shades, grape, bottle green's,
fuchias and a very stunning gray blue
which is quite the latest.
Then, too, the patternings are wide
ly diverse, including nubbed effects
and in some instances colorful bor-
ders worked into the very weave of
the material. Add to color and design
the bewildering array of new fur
treatments applied to these smart
woolens, and you have three of many
reasons why tweed is receiving a land
slide vote as the fabric ideal for fall
outdoor activities.
The tweed short-jacket suit is the
sensation of the day. These suits,
each of which consists of a skirt
lOppCu WIN JlNhCl may way
from hiplength to kneelength, are dis
tinguished with handsome and unique
fur treatments.
The furs employed include beguiling
novelties in both long-haired and flat
types. There is really nothing in the
way of sports costume which eX-
ceeds the smartly furred short-jacket
tweed suit. The shaggy furs usually
are expressed in shawl collars with
deep cuffs while the fat pelts are used
in endless novel ways, often like fab
ric, being tied in bows, made into kerr
chief capelets, and staging endless
unique effects.
Many of the full-length tweed coats
adopt self-fabric scarf treatments as
pictured. The fur which cuffs this
model is badger, pelt which is more
than popular this season. Note that
it is placed so as to show border of
the tweed about the wrist. To so po-
sitiOn fur above the wristline is one
of fashions outstanding whims.

Make Shoes Waterproof

Shoes that are 70 be worn in WIN
