JUDGE HITZ
: TO HEAR
PLEA

Special Oil Prosecutors Owen j.
Roberts and Atlee Pomerene and
United States Attorney Leo A.
Rover today filed a formal mo-
ton that the bribery trial of
Edward L. Doheny. multimillion-
aire Los Angeles oil man, be set
for Monday, January 13.
Doheny is under Indictment
for giving 100000 as bribe to
Albert B. Fall. former Secretary
Of the Interior. Fall was recently
found guilty of accepting the
bribe from Doheny and was SEN
fenced to serve a year in jail and
pay q 100000 fine.
"A date for a hearing on the
motion has not been set. The
arguments will be heard by JUS
tice william Hitz, who presided
at the trial Of former Secretary
Fall. Frank j. Hogan, Doheny's
counsel, is expected to oppose the
January trial and it is believed
he will seek to delay the trial
until March, due to numerous
other court assignments in which
he is interested.

Happy confidence" that the
bill providing free text books for
District high school pupils will
be speedily enacted at the regu-
lar session Of Congress was cx-
pressed today by Senator Arthur
Capper, chairman Of the Senate
District Committee, in comment
ing upon the favorable report sub
mitted on the bill by the District
G Commissioners.
"The favorable report by the
District Commissioners on the
measure constitutes an important
step toward the enactment Of
this progressive legislation at the
impending regular session OF Con-
greSs," Senator Capper said.
"It will be recalled that at the
last session Of Congress this legis-
lation was enthusiastically in
dorSed, not only by the tax pay
ers of washington, but also by
the Bureau Of Budget, the Board
Of Education and the CommiS-
sioners. There is every reason to
believe that at this time the bill
is more strongly supported than
ever before.
However, the District should
have had this legislation long ago.
At the present, no less than Is
states furnish free text books to
all high school students, whereas
the District under existing law
may extend this benefit only to
pupils of the elementary grades
up to and exclusive of the ninth
grade Of junior high schools.

ton that this legislation would
lift an unwarranted burden from
District parents and at the same
time would effect no substantial
drain upon the financial resources
Of the government impels me to
the happy confidence that the
bill will be speedily enacted at the

S AND QUOTATIONS OF THE FINANCIAL MARKETS
MARKET 7
IS HOOVER
TOKEN
By B. c. FORBES

You will recall ell the newspa-
pers told you before the presiden-
tial nomination that Wall Street
didn't want Hoover. Now Hoover's
inauguration Is hailed by Wall
Street as calling a wild demon
stration of bullish exhuberance!
Almost two months ago nm.
ber of the Durant group Of ope.
rators said to me:
Don't sell before the inaughra
ton. You can look for a demon
stratlon in honor of Mr.. Hoover's
entering the White House. IT
might be we'll TO take advantage
to turn paper profits into cash."
Well. the demonstration is on.
Each individual must decide for
himself whether to take advan-
tage of 1t to cash in profits or
hold on in the hope of seeing the
market continue to soar towards
the sky. The writer is not dis.
posed to go into debt to climb
for stocks : which have been
marked-up extraordinarily spectaca-
larly.
What kind of a President is
Herbert Hoover likely to make?
First of all, it can be concluded
that he will be the actual Chief
Executive. that he will dominate
his Cabinet, that he will be the
real boss.
The caliber of the new men
chosen for Cabinet portfolios in
dicates, in a sense, that Mr..
Hoover possesses self-reliance.
President Harding. less strongly
equipped to run what is in many
respects the greatest business or.
ganization in the world, choose
veritable giants from the world of
affairs as his chief heutenants.
Some of them lowered over Hard
ing as experienced executives.
Not one of Herbert Hoover's new
aides towers over him.
In a greater degree than any
predecessor. President Hoover
combines infinite sympathy for
underdogs and brilliant business
ability born of worldwide expe.
rience.
Few men have ever been in
closer grips with human distress.
He has been an eyewitness of
the worst of human tragedies
starvation, homelessness, wreck
and ruin. He could not have ac-
complished what he has ccom.
plished to relieve human woes had
his heart not been in his work.
