NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS ? ' . ' , ? 'Attorney General Daugherty Resigns at the Request of President ~ Coolidge. , . . V - _> By EDWARD W. PICKARD ' AT LAST President Coolidge has rid himself" and bis administra tion of the incubus of Attorney Gen eral Dafcgherty. Last Thursday the PresM??t lir *rtlting askedotha resigna tion off.Daugherty from the cabinet The resignation was 'received nt tiie White House next morning and yes Immediately accepted. It went lflt<* effect at once. , Mr. Coolldge's Immediate reason for requesting Daugherty to get out was 'the position the latter had taken la refusing to open the confidential files' ' of the Department of Justice to the rooklrart investigating _? committee, augherty made good In his. expressed determination . not to, leave the cab inet unless the President directly asked him to do so. Now he and his supporters feel that he $&s not been fairly treated, in that 'the 'Investiga te into his conduct baa' not been completed. At JENNINGS, evangelist; politi cian and ? former ' train robber, presented to the sen^tfe oil committee his promised "whale of a story." It was, to the effect that In 1920 the late Jake Bamon, then Republican national committeeman from. Oklahoma, told him. that Harding was to.be nominated for president and' that it, had. cost Efemon $1,000,000. He said that 5260. 000 of this was given to the late Sen- 1 ator 1 Penrose of Pennsylvania and *25,000 to. Will Hoys. Hamon told him, continued Jennings, that be was to. be inade secretary of the interior and was to shore In ptibllc lands. However, he .was killed soon aftfer the election. Jennings also quoted Hamon'as hav ing said that with the money he would make' be eventually would become .president 'of the United States. "Wasn't Hamon for Wood at the start?' asked Senator Bursum. 'Tie never liked Wood," Jennings replied. "He sald.Wood was too much Impregnated With the d? d fool hon esty of Theodore Roosevelt. Rozle Stlnson told the senate com mittee Investigating Attorney General ?Daugherty a .lot more alleged facts damaging to the reputation of him and his associates, and some of theni, were confirmed from other sources. Her most sensational story was sbout a "<38,000,000 oil stock deal" carried oat In the fall. of 1922 by five men of no tlonal prominence, whom she declined, for the time being, to name. She said Daugherty and Jess Smith, her dl .vorced husband, were sorg because they were not .In 'on It. This alleged deal was In Sinclair stocks, but Roxle's story was so vague that It was re garded generally as fanciful. 1 Harry Sinclair's refusal to answer any more questions of the Teapot Dome committee was reported to the senate and {hat -body, by a vote of 72 to 1, decided to turn the, matter over to the federal grand'jury. The ques tion Is one of the constitutional limi tations of the powers of congress, and it , will ultimately be carried to the Supreme court for decision. C C. Chase, son-in-law of Albert Fall, also refused to testify, snd as be held the position of collector of customs at El Paso the senste voted for his Impeach ment for conspiracy by the house. It was informed that ChSse had already resigned, ' but, as 8enator Heflln boomed, "too late, too' late, the day of Judgment has come." The President still, to all appear ance, Is not disconcerted by the oil and ?Daugherty revelations. Last week, at the suggestion of the general hoard of the navy, be appointed a commissioner to determine the best means of conaervlpg the nation's oil supply. The members are George Otis Smith, director of the geological sur vey; Rear Admiral Hilary P. Joiips. U. 8. N.. president of the genernl board and former commander In chief of the United States fleet, and R D. Bush of the bureati of mineralogy of the state of California. ? ? . . / > ? >'? ' , Representative l'angley of Kentucky and . flve othet men were Indicted In Washington for con spiracy to Interfere with tlie operation of the prohibition law and to defraud 'the- goveriiment. JtTST aa plans for the 'peaceful set tlement of tlie reparations and other post-war , troubles of Europe were beginning to moVe steadily toward accomplishment, M. Lasieyrle, .French' minister of finance, "pulled a boner" last Wednesday and compelled Premier Polncare and his cabinet to' resign. There was considerable dis may In diplomatic circles, but this was allayed when M. Polncare, after con sulting the presidents of the senate and ch Amber of deputies, yielded to the. requeBt of ^President Mlllerand and consented to form a new ministry. The Incident, after all, -turned out ad vantageously, for the premier was en abled to get rid of several ministers whose tnpopiilarlty has .hammered him. La st eyrie's failure to control the financial .situation: had made him the object 'Of frequent attacks, and when on Wednesday he demanded an Imme diate vote by the deputies *on the gov ernment's pension Jt)ill the Chamber sent, it to a committee far Investiga tion. Lnstey rle thereupon 'tatted for a vote of confidence ? a parliamentary blunder ? and this was refused, 264 to 271. The resignation of the cabinet followed. as a matter of course. Poln care, however, felt that he must retain the reins of government until the re port ofj the committee of experts has been published and also believed he should carry on the series of conver sations with Prime Minister MacDon ald concerning French security. There for^ he undertook, the formation of a netf cabinet. THERE seems to be ground for the hope that the Anglo-French con versations will lead te on agreement Riving, security to France and, In con junction with the Dawgs plan, to a settlement of the reparations prob lem. ;Jt ls'taken for granted that Ger many will accept the experts' report, but It' will urge that the German rail ways be heavily mortgaged and put Id the control of a; board of trustees 'In stead of being Internationalized. The Berlin government announced that the agreement between the Ruhr indus trialists and France, which provided France and the allies with coal, In exchange for which' the manufacturers were allowed freedom of operations, could hot be renewed on April 15. when It expires, because the govern. m<nt could no longer pay for the- prod ucts delivered. The Association of Rhlneland Industries therefore offered the following basis for a new agree ment : v> The German Industrialists will de liver 12tt per cent of the coal output, as called for in the previous agree ment. provided France aDd Belgium In turn i facilitate Ruhr production by re ducing - the reparations coal tax and the cost for the transportation of freight on the Franco-Belgian con trolled railway system In the Rhine land and Ruhr. . Poln'care, according to Paris dis patches', has an ambitious program by which he hopes to save Europe. If a pact for French security can t>e ar ranged with Great Britain, he will soon meet Premier Theunls of Belgium to consolidate their positions, and then will call three great conferences. The first will Include the allies, the second the allies and Germany, and the third. Intended to make a com plete settlement of the European tangle, will include the allies, Germany, the United States and the larger neu tral nations. Prime Minister MaeDonald appears to be working along the snme lines, for It is stated that he bopes, soon after the experts' report Is submitted, to bring about a new allied conference. In which the United States would be asked to participate. AT THIS writing the Incomplete re turns from the South Dakota pri maries Indicate that Hiram Johnsm has defeated Coolldge for the Repul> llcan preference by a small majority. Belated reports may change this but I In any case the Ooolldge cnmpaltni 1 managers profess Indifference. Thej assert the President already bos 250 delegates In hand and .360 more In sight, outside of contested states, and that with this minimum total of 000 vottes he Is assured of nomination on the 'first ballot In the Cleveland con vention. Some of the Cool(dge leaders ijre talking , quietly of the advisability of nominating John Lewis, president bt the United Mine Workers, for the vice presidency. They believe .this would be good politics and would In ? meas ure offset the Influence of Samuel Gompera, who eact^year comes nearer to becoming a . Democrat Lewis Is held in high esteem by aU union Ifibor except the rabid radicals, and by the people of the country generally. There Is good ' reason to believe that he would accept the nom^ftation. ? TEN million dollars was voted by the house last week for the relief of hungry women and children In Ger many. Only 07 members had the nerve to vote against the measure, 240 vot ing for It. I'he bill stipulates that the money la to be expended for food stuffs In this country and the food is, to be transported in shipping board vessels. Wherever possible the sup plies are to be bought through farm ers' , organizations. Since the, house repeatedly has been informed that there is no real food shortage in Ger many, only a failure of proper. dl*V trlbutlon,' It n\ust be admitted thai Representative Tucker of Virginia had1' reason for his assertion that the measure was designed to consolidate the German vote. '"TMVO more monarch* have .been de <* posed? King George of Qreece and the shah of Persia, In the former case the Greek national assembly voted for. the deposing of the entire Gl&ck*-. bourg dynasty and Its exile, and In favot of the establishing of a repub lic, subject to the declelofi of the peo ple In the coming plebiscite. George Is quoted as 'saying that he will not abdicate because he believes the Greeks want hits and will vote to keep him on the throne. ' In Persia the assembly deposed the shah, who has spent most of his time In Europe of late, but thV republicans were for tbe present ? Outnumbered ?<> the shah's Infant son was proclaimed ruler der a regency. ' , ? ? . ?' i , y\ W/ u tr all the 'pomp and splendid ? V ceremony that surrounds such occasions. Archbishops Mundeleln of Chicago and Hayes of New/ York were elevated to the cardlnalate by Pope Plus XI. First came the secret con sistory, In which the pope proposed the names of the fw o Americans to the sacred college and the cardinals foftnnlly acquiesced, after which the new princes of the church were noti fied, appeared and delivered addresses'. Three days later, In public donslstofy, the pope Invested them with the pur ple cloaks and red blrettas. Seated on his scarlet draped throne, the holy father delivered a~ lofl); eulogy of America In which be declared that America's "miracle of charity saved millions from starvation, Just as the entry of the Uplted States Into the World war decided the fate of Europe and the world." G ROVER CLEVELAND BERG DOLL, draft dodger and deserter, <8 said to be on his way from Germany to America, ready to serve his sen tence In order that the estate of his family may be untangled. Maybe he will be met by a reception committee from the group of half-baked student pacifists of Northwestern university who so gratefully listened to an antl Amertcan lecture by a youth who served time In prison for refusing to serve In the srmy. and then hissed the American flag and it* bearer, an ex-service man. But the less said shout these young creatures the bet ter. for they are untouched by denun ciation and thrive on publicity. MEXICO'S revolution has almost wholly collapsed. De la Huerta, Its leader, has fled the country aboard a small vessel which may have been sunk In n recent storm. Nearly all the other ehleftnlns have run away or j surrendered, and the government | forces are proceeding to clenn up In | Frontera.
