Brookhart Says Evidence Shows Widespread Corruption
WASHINGTON, June 5.—The Senate, striking back at the recent Ohio court decision which upheld Mal S. Daugherty, brother of the former attorney general, in his refusal to testify before the Brookhart-Wheeler committee this afternoon passed a resolution instructing Attorney General Stone to carry the case to the supreme court.
WASHINGTON, June 5—A half million in graft was collected by Jesse Smith while he was intimately associated with former Atty. Gen Harry M. Daugherty, it was charged in the senate this afternoon by Senator Brookhart, Rep of Iowa, chairman of the Daugherty investigation committee.
The payments of graft to Smith, Brookhart declared, were made "chiefly by bootleggers" while Smith was living in Daugherty's apartment and acting as Daugherty's confidential man in the department of justice.
Direct evidence of a conspiracy to protect crime and criminals, he added, was revealed by the investigation.
"This was not hearsey evidence," declared Brookhart. "It was direct evidence against Atty. Gen. Daugherty himself."
Daugherty refused to testify and he made his brother Mel Daugherty, resist a committee subpoena by court action," Brookhart said.
Brookhart then reviewed Jesse Smith's association with Daugherty.
"The evidence clearly shows that Jesse Smith collected $500,000 in graft money while associated with Harry M. Daugherty," said Brookhart. "Most of it came from bootleggers. It was also proven that a conspiracy existed to protect crime and criminals.
"It was arranged so that these law violators were left undisturbed for a long while and then, if arrested, only fined a few dollars on some minor charge. This is not hearsey evidence. It is direct evidence against Daugherty himself."
Declaring Smith was merely an "agent" for Daugherty, Brookhart called attention to the estate left by Smith.
"Reports of Jesse Smith's estate shows it increased from $136,000 to $144,000 in the two years"
PUBLIC GOLF COURSE AT HARBOR
Orange Co. is to have a public golf links. This was assured today when professional Joe Szarfinski, of 421 South Lemon St., completed negotiations with Mr. James Irvine for the lease of the old Orange.co. Golf Club at the harbor.
Mr. Szarfinski takes possession July 1, and will conduct the club on the same general lines as the Long Beach and Los Angeles Municipal courses, charging a nominal green fee of 50e per day, and issuing monthly tickets at $3.00 semi-annual tickets $15.00, and annual tickets at $25.00, thus giving to Anaheim and surrounding cities equal opportunities with other municipalities for golfing privileges at nominal cost.
That such a course will prove popular and profitable is the belief of Szarfinski, who built the municipal course in Balboa Park, San Diego, and more recently laid out our own Fairway Country Club links. Registrations at Los Angeles Municipal links and at Long Beach Municipal links, indicate the need of more public courses.
The spacious club house is to have a new roof, according to the terms of the lease, and will also blossom out in a new coat of paint, making it one of the most attractive and best equipped in the state, situated as it is on the edge of the high bluff overlooking the bay and beach cities.
With the completion of the new highway thru the club property, it will be necessary to change several of the holes in the first nine, but will only add to the attractiveness of the course by making it more accessible, and it will remain the sportiest sand course in the county.
Many Grand Lodge Officers Will Be in Annapolis for Ceremonies
The ceremonies in dedication to the new Pythian temple on W Center-st will be held June 8 starting on Monday. As already announced most of the Grand Ficers will be present. Secret Jay Idior of the lodge said that at least a representative of the supreme body also would tend.
Details of the program, however, have not been worked out yet. The event will be in chair of the Uniform Rank, and grand officers of the Pythianers also are expected. It is hard to have the Dramatic Order of Knights of Khorassan also present but that is still uncertain. Branch corresponds to the M Shrine in Masury, Al B Temple, D. O. K.

The new building with site, nishings etc., cost approximately $125,000. Nearly all the was done by Knights, from to furnishings.
RE-ACT SCENE IN DENTIST'S OFFICE
A dentist's chair was placed in superior court here day so a 17-year-old Santa girl can re-enact in part exasults of an alleged incident in office suite of Dr. R. E. Whitta Santa Ana dentist, that for basis of the charge being there ed out against him.
The dentist, prominent in Anna, is specifically accused of a statutory offense against girl.
After most of two days been consumed in securing an and both sides and exercise their preemptory challenges girl was called to the stand yesterday.
During a rigid cross-examination this morning, Lacasse is of defense counsel sought procure an illustration of de in which a dentist's chair flips C. N.

It was arranged so that these law violators were left undisturbed for a long while and then, if arrested, only fined a few dollars on some minor charge. This is not hearty evidence. It is direct evidence against Daugherty himself.
Declaring Smith was merely an "agent" for Daugherty, Brookhart called attention to the estate left by Smith.
Reports of Jesse Smith's estate shows it increased from $136,000 to $214,000 in the two years he was here in Washington associated with Daugherty, although they lived in a sumptuous hotel apartment at an approximate expenditure of $50,000 a year," said Brockhart.
COOLIDGE TALKS TO REALTY MEN
WASHINGTON, June 5.—Mutuality of advantage whereby all parties concerned may profit in some manner, should mark every business transaction, President Coolidge declared today in an address at the White House to the National Association of Real Estate Brokers in national convention here.
"The deal in which 'one side gets the best of it' is not good business," the president said.
Formerly there was a curious notion that if one side in a business transaction profited, the other must necessarily lose. If that were true, all business would be under suspicion and wise people could stand aloof from it. The truth is that when two parties enter into a transaction by which each exchanges something which he needs less for something he needs more, both sides are benefitted. That is the ideal basis of all trade.
"It is particularly the opportunity and duty of real estate men to retain such a standard. Your profession has given largely to leadership to better housing and better homes movement throughout the country. Therein it has done much for the advancement of the community. We cannot hope that good citizens will come from bad homes."

FIVE BRANDS TOP $6 ON AUCTION
Five different brands of valencias yesterday brought $6.00 or better per box, including Anaheim Gloriana of the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Ass'n., Altissimo of the Placentia Mutual Orange Growers' Ass'n., Old Mission of C. C. Chapman, Dominant, a Tulare co., brand and Scepter of the Santiago Citrus Ass'n., of Orange. The June 1 estimate of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange is six per cent below that of May 1, not including the month's shipments, Chas Eygabroad, a director, declared today. Eygabroad predicted a further reduction of four per cent, making 29 per cent since Nov. 1. He asserted that small size valencias also were bringing better money, the price rising 25 cents a box this week.
The high prices contrast with a solitary instance of the $6 figure only two days ago.
More than 30 brands brought $5 to $6.50 per box, whereas a week or so back $5 was the exceptional price. There were several instances of prices close to $6.
These prices are appreciably higher than a year ago at this time, according to Eygabroad.
To date 23,338 cars of oranges have been shipped from So. Calif. this year and only 80 cars of varieties other than valencias remained to be sold. Nearly all of these are rolling. Yesterday 140 cars were auctioned. Last year this date 25,501 cars had been sold.

Walsh Declares no Moral, Legal nor Businesslike Reason Can be Found

(I. N. S. Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, June 5.—Leading of the Teapot Dome and Elk Hills naval oil reserves to Harry F. Sinclair and E. L. Dobeny by ex-secretary of the interior Albert B. Fall and former secretary of the navy Edwin B. Denby, cannot be justified legally, morally or from a good business standpoint, said Senator Thomas J. Walsh, unofficial prosecutor of the public lands committee, today in a report to the senate.
Walsh's report, covering 36 printed pages, exhaustively reviewed the naval oil reserve scandal, but failed to outline definitely any legislative recommendations for tightening up the leasing laws.
He explained that present laws were adequate to prevent a similar recurrence of the scandal, which the committee has investigated since last October. If federal officers in charge of the reserves will not delegate to themselves "unwarranted assumption of authority" or did not abandon the "settled policy of the government," compelling retention of the oil in the ground for emergency use by the navy.
Walsh announced in the report that there was no evidence of a conspiracy in the Republican national convention of 1920 contemplating the exploitation of government oil lands during the Harding administration and said that the committee has found no appreciable evidence of dealings by public officials in the stocks of the Sinclair and Doheny oil companies.
Fall, Sinclair, Doheny and Denby were savagely assailed in the report for the lease negotiations, which Walsh said were "repreheliable and tainted with suspicion."
The famous $100,000 loan by Doheny to Fall, the $25,000 loan by Sinclair to Fall, and Fall's use of a detachment of marines to drive squatters off Teapot Dome were particularly singled out by Walsh for bitter denunciation.
Pointing out that Fall entered the government in "straightened circumstances" but now has property involving from $100,000 to $200,000 Walsh said, speaking specifically of the Doheny loan.
The essentially corrupt character of a loan made under such circumstances requires no comment, as it would be impossible.

FEARED KIDNAPERS, LEFT SON
With One of Franks' Slayers
CHICAGO, June 5.—Another almost unbelievable quirk to the mental processes and reactions of Nathan Leopold, Jr., one of the youths now held in jail here, following his confession to the slaying of 13-year-old Robert Franks, was revealed here today when Mrs. Robert L. Stern, who lives in the neighborhood of the Franks home told reporters she had entrusted her nine-year-old son, Herbert, to young Leopold's care two days before the death of Robert Franks because she feared some harm might come to her boy thru the murderers of Robert.
Her eyes glistening with excitement, Mrs. Stern said she had feared to leave her children alone even with servants, when it became necessary for her to leave home, so great was her dread of kidnappers. She finally decided, she said, to send Prisella, her little daughter, to the home of some friends and get some young man to watch over Herbert. And of all the young men she knew she picked Nathan Leopold, Jr., who has confessed he was the kidnaper she feared.
What's more, Nathan consented to the plan and brot Herbert home safe and sound to his father after a day spent in Riverside park, where Nathan went to study bird life.

URGE LOWDEN AS NOMINEE FOR V. P.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 5.—Despite his seeming unwillingness to accept it, ex-governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois continued to rule a favorite toda in the Republican vice presidential reckoning. Unless Lowden takes some definite stand against his being named, or President Coolidge indicates he wants someone else, it seems entirely possible that the millionaire farmer of Illinois will be drafted to fill out the 1924 ticket.
It cannot be rightly said there is any vice presidential "contest," for there are no candidates in the avowed sense. A dozen men are considered available timber and of the lot, the former governor, who almost was nominated at Chicago four years ago in place of President Harding, commands the greatest following among the party leaders now in Cleveland.
Back of the Lowden strength among the party's lieutenants is the vague and haunting shadow of Senator Robert M. LaPollette and the havoc he is capable of wreaking in the northwest.
Members of the national committee and others are almost a unit in believing that someone must be chosen for second place on the ticket who will balance the New Englandism of Calvin Coolidge and, at the same time, have a speaking acquaintance with and a knowledge of the disgruntled wheat and live stock growers of the west and northwest.

HELD UNDER $5000 BAIL FOR STABBING
Joe Lopez was held under $5000 bail today in Judge Kuchel's court for the superior court following a preliminary hearing on the charge of having stabbed his uncle, Pedro Lopez. The quarrel and fight which resulted in the stabbing is said to have occurred on April 14, and to have grown out of a dispute over a violin. Joe is said to have struck Pedro with his fist, whereupon Pedro struck him twice, knocking him down. Joe got up and struck Pedro on the shoulder with a knife. The family intervened and stopped the fight.
"CHILD'S PLAY"
STATES COUNCIL
"Child's play" was the way city councilmen today characterized because one of their number, Wm. Lake, had been released from the office of city collector.
"It was not unexpected," declared Mayor E. H. Metcalf.
"After Lake had been asked for his resignation as assistant rate collector because the council felt he was not lending all the co-operation he might, reports can to us that he had declared he 'had the council over a barrel that some of the firemen would quit in sympathy if he was released.' It was then, of course, a case of whether the council was making its own appointments or was being dictated to by a half dozen firemen.
Councilman A. A. Slackback, chairman of the police, light and water committee, stated today: "We are glad to know now if there are any in the fire department who feel they cannot work in harmony with the council. We can put in 156 volunteer firemen tomorrow, if need be."
Fire Chief Dick Fischle denied a report that he or any of the rest of the department were planning to resign. He declared Sam Snodgrass, one of the six reported to have quit, would not do so. Fischle asserted he and others wouldn't leave life and properly to be endangered by fire "for a little thing like that." Fischle
CHICAGO, June 5.—Additional serious charges were lodged against Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard Loeb, millennial slayers of Robert Franks, when Mrs. Louise Hohl, $8 mother of three children, thrut her attorney this afternoon filed notice in circuit court that she would bring suit asking $100,000 damages from the youths.
Mrs. Hohl charged she was seized on May 8 by the boys, forced into their auto, assaulted and left in a ditch on the outskirts of the city.
Hattle lines were definitely thrown out here today in the "fifteen million dollar fight" for the lives of Leopold and Loeb.
Attorneys for the youths who said they killed Loeb's cousin "to get a thrill" visited their clients in their cells at the county jail for long conferences while the state attorney's office sent the last group of witnesses to the grand jury investigating the sensational crime. Seventeen persons who were to testify to statements in the confessions visited the jury room. Indictments were expected today.
The first indication that the affairs of the boys have passed definitely into the hands of the million dollar defense array came day when, following the visit of the Bachrachs, the prisoners finally refused to visit the state's attorney's office for further questioning.
"We refuse on advice of counsel," was the word sent back when Mr. Crowe sent a request to the county jail for the presence of the youths in his office.
Policemen and detectives who ferreted out the evidence and assisted in the arrests, scenographers who noted the conversations of the boys when they confessed were sent in to the grand jury room today.
State Attorney Crowe announced he will take the boys into court for arrangement and will demand that they be placed on trial July 15, the earliest possible date under Illinois state law. When Justice Carley was elected recently he promised speedy trial for those accused of murder. Several cases have been swiftly disposed of since then.

A check for $1850.73, which constitutes the two per cent, francise tax from the Southern Counties Gas Co. today was turned over to the city of Anaheim, by J. C. Hayden, district manager of the Gas company. This amount is for the year 1923, and shows an increase over the preceding year.
Roscoe Asserts We Pay "Three Prices" Until We Manufacture
In a long statement to the public, John Q. Roscoe, a member of the local Greater Los Angeles Industrial committee and a subscriber to the local fund, today asked why Anaheim was so "delinquent in support of the Greater Los Angeles movement?"
The committee, which has been working for a week, consists of "Doe" Barnes, C. C. Case, C. R. Harrison, M. Roy Easton, W. D. Grafton, A. E. Hargrove, Sid McGraw, C. J. Nenno, Bex Dickinson, Gus Theodore, Elmer Bowers, J. E. Schumacher, D. H. Sidnam and A. W. Panzen.
Californians pay "three prices" for goods, Roscoe contends, on raw materials bought here and shipped East to be shipped back as finished products, on transportation and the final retail price. He declares that "our portion here of the U. S. is logically a manufacturing country."
"Just so long as the people of So. Calif. continue exclusively to think in terms of farms, produce, fruit, oil and tourists, we will still be paying 'three prices' for everything we buy, and at the same time be deprived of the prosperity that goes hand in hand with legitimate manufacturing development."
State's Attorney Crowe announced he will take the boys into court for arrangement and will demand that they be placed on trial July 15, the earliest possible date under Illinois state law. When Justice Carerly was elected recently he promised speedy trial for those accused of murder. Several cases have been swiftly disposed of since then.
CHICAGO, June 5.—The tension which has held the grand jury for three days, while the prosecution Las presented what it terms, "perfect hanging cases," tightened today as the time approached to vote on murder and kidnapping indictments against Nathan E. Lospolo Jr., and Richard A. Loeb.
That vote will come late today. As a dramatic finale to the questioning of more than a score of witnesses in the grand jury room, state's attorney Crowe announced he would call the shorthand reporters who took notes while the young heirs to millions detailed the craftily planned killing of Robert Franks.
A third true bill against each youth, which the state plans to use as a stimulant toward trial if delays intervene, will be requested it was learned today. Conspiracy to murder will be the charge which the prosecution plans to hold in reserve when the report of the grand jurors is made to Chief Justice Carverly tomorrow.
Though Clarence Darrow chief of defense counsel, will make every effort to balk the trial of the two youths until what he calls the "mob hysteria" aroused by the case has simmered down, the state will demand trial July 15, the earliest date possible under Illinois law.
An overtime session of the grand jury may be necessary to complete the testimony of the shorthand reporters. Crowe announced he would ask the reading in full of the detailed confession made when Loch cracked and Kold's poise deserted him soon after midnight Saturday and talked without reserve any most dawn.
