WASHINGTON, Feb. 21—The senate Teapot Dome committee today preparing for two lines of inquiry when public hearings are resumed Monday. These are: 1. Questioning of Harry F. Sinclair, lessee of Teapot Dome, concerning the making of that lease with Albert B. Fall, former secretary of the interior and financial transactions with Fall and others growing out of leasing. 2. Investigation to disclose stock deals by other government officials besides Davis Elkins, senator from West Virginia, who admitted market operations in Sinclair oil, but said he had no tip and made no profit. Sinclair is now regarded by the committe as its star witness. Upon his testimony also the president’s special counsel, Atlee Pomeron and Owen Robert are depending for the clinching of their case showing fraud and corruption in connection with leasing of at least one of the oil reserves. Whether Sinclair’s testimony also will provide necessary evidence for criminal prosecutions. Recent testimony before the committee has tended to show that Fall and Sinclair were negotiating for Teapot Dome even before the reserves had been transferred from the navy to the interior department and that to prevent the negotiations from being upset, Sinclair paid or agreed to pay more than $2,000,000 in all to other claimants.
Dinner will be served at the Col lege Avenue church Friday evening from 6 to 7:30.

The large Reo truck owned by the Harris Milling Co. and Frank Peck, driving a Ford touring car, collided on State Road 32 Wednesday evening at about 4:30 o’clock. The accident was causes! by the slick roads and neither J car was damaged to any great ex- ! tent. The car of Mr. Peck was brought to the Franklin street garage I for repairs.
Since Mr. Colidge, up to now, has let it be known he would not ask for Daugherty’s resignation unless specific evidence finding Daugherty culpable in the oil or other scandals were produced, the line of argument directed at Daugherty is that he should resign to spare the party unnecessary
additional trouble.
Of Pearl Hammond Campbell, who passed away one year ago today, Feb. 21, 1923: The moon and stars are shining on a lone and silent grave, Where lies the one we love, but whom we could not save, How w*e miss you, dear wife and mother, as you quietly sleep and rest, But when we think of how you suffered, then we know that God knows best.
