By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—Certain members of j congress seem to he attempting to make it appear that guilt iu any matter is partisan rather than personal. Some congressmen, some senators particularly, possibly are hurting the cause of party by their violent and virulent attempts to involve not only persons hut parties in the oil lease scandal. Atlee Pomerene of Ohio and Silas H. Struwn of Illinois, the attorneys named by President Coolldge to conduct the civil and criminal Investigation into charges of delinquencies or worse, can be depended upon probably to walk the chalk line of non-partisan-ship. If either shall step over the line it will hurt one way or the other, but seemingly everybody In Washington believes that both men will keep eyes and feet on the line until its

end Is reached.

It does not seem to be generally known that It was almost Immediately after Albert B. Fall's confirmation ns a cabinet officer that he sought to obtain an executive order transferring the oil reserves from the Department of the Navy to the Department of the Interior where they would be under

his Jurisdiction.

Now there are two ways of looking at this almost precipitate action of Secretary Fall. All through the years he was known as an advocate of capitalistic exploitation of government ,

lands, always of course supposedly j for president,

with proper reservations safeguarding the government. Therefore, Mr. Fall’s request for the transfer of tho oil Jurisdiction to his department was not at all unexpected by the conservationists ef the country who had, rightly or wrongly, looked upon the New Mexico man as an enemy to conservation

as they believed in It.

Serious From One Viewpoint. Now another way the thing U looked at Is of course a much more serious way. A suspicion, right or wrong, la that Mr. Fall wanted to obtain Jurisdiction over the reserve fields In order that they might be leased to persons who were friendly to him. The mnlp thing, of course, Is that the executive order was issued and Mr. Fall’s department was given the Jurisdiction that he sought for It. The step by step history of tho affair is fairly

clear.

The transfer was made by the order

of President Harding un May 3, 1921. There was objection from many naval officers, notably from Admiral Griffin,

chief of that branch of the

INDIANAPOLIS LIVESTOCK INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 21 - Hog prices broke sharply 20 to 25 cents here today when reecipts crossed the 12,000 mark as the result of improvement in highways after the recent

Cattle prices were practically unchanged. Some good stock was received. Receipts were 1,000. Steady quotations ruled in the calf market, choice veals commanding a top of ?15 and the bulk $14 to $14.50. Receipts were 400. Native-fed lambs ruled steady with Wednesday’s late advance of $1, selling down from $15, while sheep were unchanged at $7 down. Receipts were

50.

TAX REDUCTION REMOTE WASHINGTON, Feb. 21—Pros-

pects of tax reduction this year were more remote today as the house, after adopting the Gamer Democrat substitute for the Mellon plan continued its discussion of the tax bill.

A probable veto of the Gamer bill

by Prseident Coolidge and danger that the house and senate will not be able to agree on a compromise acceptable to tho president were the dangers ris-

ing in the path of tax reduction.

It will be seen that President Harding ordered the transfer within two months after his induction Into office.

It was not, however, until nearly a year later that the secretary of the Interior turned over a lease of the Teapot Dome reserve in Wyoming to the Sinclair interests. It was nine months later, in December, 1922, to be exact, that the Interior department gave a lease to what is known ns Re-
