COMMITTEE WILL
INVITE HAYS TO
TESTIFY AGAIN
BY PAUL r. MALLON
Omitted Press Staff Corrcspcndent)

WASHINGTON, April 4.-The
Senate Teapot Dome committee will
invite Will Hays, former chairman
of the Republican national commit
tee, to testify again when he returns
from Europe in answer to evidence
which has accumulated in his alb
sence, Senator Walsh Of Montana
announced today.
Hays will be invited to tell the
purpose of his visit to Senator Len
root, chairman of the Teapot Dome
committee in 1924 when the com
mittce was attempting to ascertain
where former Secretary Of Interior
Fall obtained sudden wealth, Walsh
said. Lenroot has testified that Hays
came to see him here and asked him
what the committee desired to learn
from Fall. Lenroot added both he
and Hays agreed Fall should be re-
quired to testify. Hays will be asked
to comment also, if he desires, on
statements of former Senator Alva
Adams of Colorado that Hays invit
cd a subsequent chairman of the
committee, the late Senator Ladd
to take an automobile ride around
Washington to discuss the case
Adams charged in statements tC
newspapermen that Hays was al
tempting to influence the investigat
ors. Adams statements were corrob
Grated in part by A. II. Mac Arthur
former Secretary to Ladd and nov
Secretary to Chairman Nye of the
investigating committee.
Walsh does not believe the evid
cnce and reports warrant subpoena
ing Hays but an opportunity will
be granted him to tell his side.
The committee intends to delav
hearings wherever possible unit
after the Sinclair trial for fear il
might be accused of an attempt tC
influence the trial.

MIDDLE WEST
FARMERS BALK
AGAINST HOOVER
Serve Notice They Will
Bolt Party Lines Ii
Secretary Nominated.
BY United Press Leased Wire

DIES MONIES, Iowa, April A.
The corn belt committee, represent
ing farm organizations of l. states,
served notice upon leaders of the
Republican party here last night
that if Herbert Hoover is nominated
for president the farmers of the
corn belt states will igno7e party
lines in their determination to con-
sign him to private life for all time
to come.
The committee, meeting to con
slider its policy toward modified
farm relief bill, warned in a resol-
ution it would protest Hoover $ nom
ination as an "affront to the far
mcrs of the nation -
speaking for more than q mil
lion organized farmers reaching from
Indiana to Montana" the resolut
ion read, "the corn belt committee
hereby serves .notice upon Republi-
can leaders that if by any chance
Herbert Hoover should be nominat-
cd for president, the corn belt states
will be found solidly against him.
1.-The farm vote easily constitutes
the balance of power in such states
as Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa,
Minnesota, Nebraska and the north
west. Remembering the perfidy OF
Hoover to the farmer during the
World War and his sinister and re
lentless attitude toward farm relief
legislation during the Harding and
Coolidge administrations, nothing
is more certain than, in event Of
nomination, farmers Of the above
states will utterly ignore party lines
in their determination to consign-
this man to private life for all
time to come.
\ second resolution was directed
to leaders of both parties saying the
corn belt farmers would "took witt
disfavor upon any candidate whose
past actions brand him as
unsympathetic toward the Unequal
j ity under which the farmer has lab
+ ored for seven years. >
