NAVY DEAL, OIL FIELD
 IS pR0BED
Conira(t win Standard Oil Called Illegal,
 Invalid

WASHINGTON, June 18. An agreement between the Navy and the Standard Oil Company of Cali fornia to develop the Elk Hills oil reserve is termed as Illegal and invalid by Assistant Attorney Gen. eral Norman M. Littell
 Littell made this remark during House Public Land Committee hearing.
 Rep Alfree J. Elliott of Califor- mia termed the deal as something of an inkling of the Teapot Dome scandal of some years ago"
 He suggests that the committee take a free ride to California to study the situation.
 Littell told the committee he had made an exhaustive examination of the contract and has submitted a report to James F. Byrnes.
 The contract called for the pay ment of $1,748.4 by the Navy to Standard Oil in return for title to equipment and 8,297 acres of land the company owns. The company could operate the works for five years and would be permitted a daily production of 15,OOO barrels of oil.
 An authoritative congressional source says he expects the Presi- dent to order the contract cancelled in view of the findings by the Jus tice Department.

ROOSEVELT SIGNED TT

Despite this, however, MT. Roose- welt, as President, signed his ap- proval of the contract, and returned it to the Navy Department ln one day. Actually it would have taken him a full day to have read 1t, ano obviously he leaned heavily on his Secretary of the Navy, Frank Knox who signed it as principal.
 Tn the Harding oil scandals, il was the Navy Department which opposed transferring it's oil lands to the Interior Department-unti weak-kneed Secretary of the Navy Denby came into office. The In terior Department, on the other hand. had pressed for transfer oi the precious oil lands so Fall coulo lease them to his pals, Doheny and Harry Sinclair.
 But in the current lease of Elk Hills. the situation is reversed. Sec retary of the Navy Knox was the one anxious to lease Elk Hills this time, and Secretary of the Interior Ickes knew nothing about the deal except by accident. For some

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON tMajor Robert s. Allen on active dutyD

GTON.-Assistant Pres ident James Byrnes has just stepped in, at the instance of the Justice and Interior Departments to stop a deal that, in it's back grounds, recalls the Teapot Dome oil scandal
 The deal is a contract between Standard Oil of California and the Navy whereby the Navy's choicest oil lands, Elk Hills, Calif., are turned over to Standard in toto for five years, and after that operated for the Navy on a percentage basis.
 Elk Hills is the same oil reserve which the late Edward Doheny leased from Secretary of the h. terior Albert B. Fall in the Harding days, in return for which Doheny sent him $1O0,000 in bills in little black satchel. In this case there is no suggestion of little black satchel.
 However, Elk Hills, totalling 43,- 900 acres, is considered by long odds the richest oil reserve in the United States and the second rich est in the world. Only one other, in Arabia, tops it. It had been held by the Navy for the day when the nations oil reserves should become depleted. and had been jealously guarded by Josephus Daniels and his Assistant Secretary, F. D. Roo- sevelt.

 For Records
City Refuses 10 Allow Re. p0rier Access 10
 Public Books

The Empire, through its attor- ney, will apply to the United States District Court here Monday for q court order which will allow Elm pire reporters access to Juneau City Police Court records
 Although all such records are deemed public records and open to any citizen who wishes to inspect them, Chief of Police John Mon- agle and Mayor Harry I. Lucas both have refused to allow report CTS to look through the books for items of news interest
 Other citizens have reported to the Empire that they have been turned down by city officials in re- quests to inspect the records.
 Not The Custom
 When an Empire reported asked to see the records this morning, the Chief of Police said he was not accustomed to showing them. He said it would be all right if the Mayor authorized it.
 Mayor Lucas said the City Coun- cil hadn't authorized this procedure as yet.
 The Mayor said 1t would be all right to give list each day of arrests and fines, the information which was requested by the re- porter, and also said there was nothing to hide. He then went down to the jail where the records are kept and tried the door which was locked. but the Chief of Police was only a few feet away and probably had key
 Ninnis Says No
 The Mayor then asked Council man Elroy Ninnis, who was pres ent. if he thought he should allow a reporter to see the records and Ninnis shook his head, no.

Museum Receives Copy Of Historic Telegraph
 Trail Epic Here Today

Copies of the Bulkley Telegraph Trail Journal were presented this afternoon to the Alaska Territorial Museum and to Gov Ernest Gruen- ing of Alaska by Col. K. B. Bush, chief of staff of the Northwest Service Command
 This journal was kept in 1895 by Colonel Bulkley who led the cele- brated exploration which strung telegraph lines from San Francisco to British Columbia and on through Alaska
 Said Col Bush, Tt is, highly fit- ting that copy of the frontier colonels journal and letters should come at last to the capital of the Territory which he was so influ- ential in adding to the domain of the United States"
 Canadian Friendship
 Speaking of Canadian American cooperation, he said the "Bulkley Journal underscores only one phase of the historic friendship between the United States and Canada. This friendship has made possible in North America the longest unforti- fled boundary in the world.
 Some day our alliance in this war will also be a part of the his- tory of the two lands And I feel sure that the construction of the Alaska Military Highway, a pro- iect of great importance in both war and peace, will be one Of the brightest chapters"
