Albert Bacon Fall may never serve day in prison. He may never pay one cent of his SlOO,00O fine. However. John Jones. Henry Smith, etc, will continue to enrich city, state, and federal court coffers with fines imposed upon them for violation of the liquor laws. Mir Fall, who was secretary of the interior when the late Warren c. Hard ing was president was so unwise as to accept $lOOOOO bribe from E. Doheny in ex- change for lease on the Elk Hills oil reser- voir. It was related to the famous Teapot Dome oil scandals Found guilty Mir Fall has thus far managed to steer clear of all pri- son walls; also he has been reported as both physically and financially broken The S1OO000 fine was the equivalent of the bribe he accepted. Perhaps some one had better find the little black bag which figured SO prominently in the trial of Fall. Doheny. and others Oddly enough it was fellow cabinet member of Falls who denied his supreme court appeal. Chief Justice Hughes was secretary of state under Harding and also under Coolidge, For that matter President Hoover was also a member of this i'll fated cabinet, serving as secretary of commerce until 1928. We reterate that Mir Fall may never enter prison nor pay one cent of his $lOO.OO0 fine. but John Jones and Henry Smith will continue to decorate the board

UTILITIES INQUIRY
WILL RUN INTO 1882
Recess Begins After Hearing on
Affairs Of Alabama Power Co.
Is Completed.
By the Associated Prsss.

BY the Associated Press.
II will take the Federal Trade Com
mission at least a year longer to COM
plete the comprehensive inquiry into the
publicity and financing methods of pub
lie utilities ordered by the Senate early
in 1928.
The investigation reached the hearing
stage in March Of last year, and COM
mission officials said today it would
probably not be over until late in 1882.
An inquiry into the publicity activi-
ties OF the utilities was completed first.
1t included revelations of retainerS paid
to college professors, utilities material
introduced into text books and wide cir
culation in newspapers of material ia
vorable to power companies.
The financial phase of the inquiry has
heard many charges of "write-ups," or
increases in valuation without an in
crease in physical assets, during mergers
and consultations.
Power officials, however, have replied
If the work done before the mergers is
taken into account and the exhaustive
inquiry made into the history and de-
velopnent of the companies the in
creases will be found in most instances
to be justified.
Hearings in an inquiry into the af-
fairs OF the Alabama Power Co, and
associated corporations ended Yesterday
ana recess began today which will con-
tinue until February as. They will re-
sumo then with officials of the New
England Power Co. on the stand.
