VOL. XXXII.
LATEST ADMINISTRATION SCANDAL
ROTTEN DEAL PULLE D OFF BY STANDARD
OIL SUBSIDIARIES.
Washington, May 5.—The latest ad-1
ministration, scandal, growing out of
the leasing of naval oil reserves in
California and Wyoming, to private
fntferests controlled' by subs|tdiaifles
4(of the Standard Oil Company, prom
ises to revive the former “Conserva
tion bloc” in congress find reveal per
haps the existence of a Standard Oil
bloc.
These naval oil reserves, originally
set aside by President Taft, and in
Charge of the navy department, were
transferred to the secretary of the in-
, terior, Mr. Fall, in May, 1921, by
an executive order by (President Har
ding. During the administration of
A Secretary Daniels of the navy depart
ment, many attempts were made by
private interests to obtain these naval
reserve oil lands, but in every in
stance they were frustrated. Recent
wild speculations on the New York
stock exchange in the stock of the
Sinclair concern, led to investigation,
which revealed these secret leases un
der the Fall administration of the in
terior department. The latest of these
naval oil reserves to fall into the
hands of the Standard Oil subsidiary
is the Teapot Dame district in Wyo
ming comprising between 6,000 and
7,000 acvres of virgin territory. Na
val reserves No. 1 and No. 2 are in
California.
Senator Kendrick (Democrat of Wy
oming) first introduced a resolution
fesking for information concerning this
alleged deal, which resulted in bring
ing to light the fact that the deal
had been consummated, with a state
ment from the interior department
%nade to the press that the reason for
leasing was that the owners of ad
joining lands had drilled wells with
in two hundred feet of government
land and were, draining the naval re
serve. It was alleged that such drain
age had been going on for Years. This
— sffftment' wwv cmirp'o«sJi3' disproved
by former Secretary of the Navy Dan
iels, who said in a public statement
that several times owners of adjoin-
j.ing land had threatened to sink wells
"close to the naval reserves, but he
had told them if this were done he
would put marines' into these fields
and tap their reserves, and the threats
of the owners of the private lands
were not carried out. The former sec
retary stated that all modern navy
vessels are oil burners and that these
reserves must be protected.
Senator LaFollette (Republican,
Wisconsin) came to the support of
Senator Kendrick and introduced a res
olution directing the secretary of the
interior to send to the senate a list
of all oil leases in these three naval
reserves, and all information relating
thereto, and it is upon this resolution
that a new alignment may be forced
in the senate with the supporters of
national conservation on one side and
the friends of special privilege and
Standard Oil on the other.
It is expected that the former sup
porters of Theodore Roosevelt in his
policy of national conservation will
support the LaFollette (resolution for
an investigation and that it will have
the support of the farm bloc as well
as the united support of the Democrat
ic senators.
It is already evident that fhe ad
ministration will resist this investiga
tion with all the power it can com
mand. According to a reliable Repub
lican paper, Senator Smoot and Curtis
have notified| Senator (LaFollette that
his resolution will not be allowed to
pass if they can prevent it.
Secretary Fall’s reason for making
the leases having been exploded by
former Secretary Daniels, a .new rea
son has been advanced both for making
the leases and for keeping them se
cret. The correspondent of the Re
publican paper referred to says:
“The only reason given for this man
ifest unwillingness to have the oil con
tracts made public is the declaration
that they are entered into as part of
the administration’s policy of military
defense and should, .'therefore, be treat
ed as confidential military informa
tion.”
It is pointed out that this military
policy does not comport with the
claims of the administration concern
ing the accomplishments in behalf of
peace resulting from the late disarm
ament conference; nor does it comport
with the administration policy of main
taining a large personnel in the navy
by turning over the reserve fuel of the
navy to private interests.
Secretary Full, ’iutla pointed out, Las
never been friendly to conservation,
and his success in obtaining control
of these oil reserves for his depart
ment, with the designs of his depart
ment upon forestry and other natural
resources, has alarmed the friends of
conservation of natural resources over
the present situation.
Senator LaFollette has already re
ceived assurance of the support of
many other Republican senators, and,
despite the opposition of the adminis
tration, it is expected that an inves
tigation will be made which wil bring
to light the secret transactions in na
val oil reserves and may operate to
head-off deals to exploit other natural
resources by the big interests.

Peking, China.—Heavy cannonading
at last accounts was in progress at
various points along the front extend
ing from Macbang, south of Tientsin,
across the country to the vicinity of
Peking. Severe fighting occurred at a
point along the Hun Ho river, thirty
miles south of this city, where forty
thousand troops of Gen. Wu Pei-Fu,
the central Chinese leader, endeavored
to force a crossing in order to gain con
trol of the Peking-Tientsin railroad.
Gen. Chang Tso-Lin, governor of
Manchuria, and head of the opposing
forces, from his headquarters near
Tientsin, ordered trains to convey the
main body of his one hundred thou
sand soldiers to the front south of the
great wall. Two Manchurian airplanes
flew over Tientsin and proceeded west
ward.
Later airplanes dropped bombs near
the station at Hwangtsun, only a short
distance from here.
Advices received by military attaches
here said that Wu-Pei-Fu was sending
troops northward at the greatest pos
sible speed.
Fifty thousand *eof his troops, con
centrated at Pao Tingfu are being re
inforced from the Yantze provinces.
Twenty thousand others, recruited from
Shantung, are marching afainst Chang
Tso-Lin’s southeastern stronghold at
Machang.
Two thousand dead and wounded
were found on the field after the bat
tle at Chang Sintien, outside of Pe
king. The booming of cannon was
heard in Peking, but the cannonading
ceased in the morning hours. Despite
the continuation of trench warfare,
many foreigners, including legation
legation guards, went outside the city
to view the hostilities.
Corporal Mason, an American ma
rine from Colorado, was shot in the
arm but was not seriously wounded.
French employees at the locomotive
works at Chang Sintien narowly es-
when a bomb, dropped from an air
plane, destroyed the works.
Gen. Wu Pie Fu is continuing to
send troops west of Peking in an en
deavor to envelope General Chang’s
northwestern wing. This precipitated
fighting which lasted an entire night
at Fengtai, ten miles from Peking.
STAND TOGETHER, MENI
LET’S KEEP OUR OWN RAZORS
Though Clothiers Report Sartorial In
vasion By Women, Men Still
Have Their Rights
Chicago.—What Julius Caesar really
meant when he uttered that immortal
line “Two can live as cheaply as one,”
was that In 1922 both husband and
wife could wear the same clothes.
And, despite the laughter of his short-
visioned auditors of that morning on
the Rubicon, the 'red-headed emperor
was right, as fashion leaders at the
convention of the United National
Clothiers’ Association convention here
can tell you. The sign on the door,
“Gents’ Furnishings,” doesn't mean
anything any more, they say.
Women, according to W. L. Mohr,
secretary, are buying all kinds of men’s
clothes for themselves*
They are buying knickers, hundreds
of them; they are buying men’s felt
hats; men’s shirts and soft collars and
string ties for their own wear.
“The only thing they aren’t buying
so far is men’s trousers,” it was stated.
“It may come to that. Athletic women
are buying all kinds of men’s acces
sories for sport purposes.”
New Orleans, La. — Reports from
Harrisonburg, La., recently that the
1,000 residents of that town, in addi
tion to 50 refugees from Catahoula,
Concordia and other flooded parishes
in that section, face starvation unless
food supplies arrive speedily, have
greatly itensified the gravity of the
flood situation, and every agency is
trying to overcome the difficulty of
transporting supplies to the stricken
people.
The most serious phase of the flood
situation is northern Louisiana at this
time, aside from the danger of con
tinually rising waters, is that of threat
ened food shortage. Many isolated
communities have been completely sur
rounded by water, and residents forced
to depend upon small stocks of food on
hand, when flood waters rushed
through the break near Ferriday.
Countless numbers are living on can
ned products that they are securing
from community grocers, but reports
from some sections indicate there are
other communities not so fortunately
placed, and that many people are very
little ahead of starvation. In many iso
lated farm houses, where residents
have remained in marooned or flooded
homes, there is very little, if anything,
to eat.
With depleted stocks of food re
ported from all the refugee camps in
the Louisiana flood area and a real
crisis existing at Harriso’nburg, ref
ugee workers recently expressed the
belief that those who remained in their
flood-swept homes may in the long
run be better off than those concen
trated in the refugee camps unless
some means of reaching the camp with
provisions is found without delay.

New • Beveridge Race In Indiana
Indianapolis.—Senator Harry S. New
and Albert J. Beveridge were running
neck and neck for the Republican
nomination for the senate on the face
of early returns .from the recent pri
mary. Compilations from 158 widely
scattered precincts throughout^ the
state gave New 9,083 and Beveridge
8,010.
U. S. Treasury Is Scene Of A Fire
Washington.—Fire was discovered
early the other morning on the roof
of the treasury building. A few min
utes after the first alarm the flames
were leaping twenty feet in the air
above a superstructure being con
structed on the roof of the old build*
lng. Following an explosion of chemi
cals stored where the fire originated,
the flames appeared to be rapidly gain
ing headway. Four alarms had been
turned in fifteen minutes after the fire
was discovered.
Washington. — A "littli Virginian
rebel,' 1 home from a cVfttfrokt of Brit
ain, recently urged her first love to
raise a league of nations standard. She
is Lady Nancy Astor, daughter, of Vir
ginia, member of the British Parlia
ment and lastly, warm defender of
Woodrow Wilson’s world society of
nations. “I was told not to talk about
the league," Lady Astor commented,
“All you have to do is to tell a Vir-
ginan ‘don’t’ and it’s sure to be done.
“There will surely be a League of Na
tions one of these days. I love Amer
ica, I love England, but I do not con
fine my love of these two, great na
tions. We must embrace all nations
in the family of our love. We don’t
have to call this world society a
League of Nations. We can call it a
league for peace. Call it anything,
for it seems to be positively jarring
to say League of Nations to your poli
ticians . But I think the League is
coming. You can never tell me that
the great heart of America wants to
progress alone.”

Genoa, Italy.—Soviet Russia must

from the alies, according to the terms
of the so-called ultimatum just finished
by the political sub-commission of the
conference.

Judge Howard, attorney for the state
highway department, in his address to
the county commissioners of Georgia,
in their eighth annual convention, held
at Bainbridge, the 19th and 20th of
last month, said:
“The (state of Georgia Is tacing a
crisis. We stand, as It were, at the
.patring of the ways. We cannot mark
time, under existing conditions. We
are going to move forward under
wise, constructive legislation: or, lack
ing that, Georgia wil certainly go back-
or interest, and will seek to have their |

amounts due from the Soviets.
Russia, however, must not only rec-

allies, if she expects to obtain any ul
timate reduction in her debt.
These are the provisions agreed upon
by the political sub-commission. They
probably will be ratified without much
debate by the allies and forthwith
handed to the Russian delegation. All
advance indications are that these
terms will be unacceptable to the Rus
sians. The Soclets not only must
abandon all their protestations against
recognizing the old debts, but they
must sacrifice the very valuable bar
gaining asset of counter claims against
the allies for damages incurred during
invasions of the White army and for
other attacks which the Bolshevists |
claim were financed by outside na*
tions.
The people of Fayette want good
roads, our county commissioners are
doing all that can be done for good
roads, Judge Howard, attorney for the
state highway department says. The
judge further says “that we must move
forward under wise, constructive leg
islation.” We’ve been moving forward
under that slogan; we've tried that and
found that the over-head somewhere
was too wise. Wayett’s appropriations
were inviting and somehow, some
where, by someone, they were badly
pilfered and plundered, and we already
have an elephant on our hands.
Perhaps Judge Howard can have
some influence with the “wise, con
structive legislation” that have appro
priated the monies ( that were desig
nated for the building “of the highway

ty line, including the cement bridges

Perhaps Judge Howard can tell us

Campbell county line on the map, and
why.
The $75,000,000 road bond Issue is
a big thing, and will be a bigger thing
to handle and the State Highway As
sociation has already said that Fay
ette county had been discriminated
against in the failure to give to this
county, what had already been appro
priated for its present highway sys
tem, and before undertaking a greater
program, we are more interested in
getting what already belongs to us.
Our appeal to legislation now is,
Help us get what has already been
appropriated for Fayette county, and
not to make a further debt to cover
a shortage made by misappropria
