Harding for the é y Former Oklahoma Bandit Says Harding’s Nomina- tion Bought by an Oil Man ME A MILLION” “CO! Quotes Jake Hamon as Saying That He Would be Made Secretary of Interior Washington, Mar, 27.—(By the A. P.)—The story about a big money deal at the Chicago Republican con- vention in 1920 was repeated with many dashes of color before the oil committee today by Al Jennings, who became famous years ago as a train robber and ist and politician, Jennings said he was passing on what had been told him by Jake Hamon, the Oklahoma Republican na- tional committeeman who was killed by Clara Smith Hamon late in 1920. ince has turned evangel- | Briefly Hamon’s ‘story as related by Jennings on the stand today was as follows: \ That Hamon had “nominated” War- presidency and that it had cost him (Hamon) $1,000,000. That the cost of carrying Oklahoma for Harding had been $500,000. That Hamon had paid Harry M. Daugherty $26,000; Senator Boise Penrose of Pennsylvania ' $250,000, and Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republican national committee, $: 000. That Hamon was to become Seere- tary of the Interior and share in the public lands and expected with the money he would make to become President. Had Known Him Jennings said he had known Hamon for a number of years and had gone with him to the Chicago convention. “We went to a room i.. one of the hotels, “continued the witness, “He told me Harding would be nominated he next day and that it had cost, rim a million dollars. He said he ind paid $250,000 to Boise Penrose nd in a conversation it was brought wut in some way,—I will not be per- ectly clear about it—that it was greed by Mr. Daugherty, Wilf H. Tays and he named somebody else /‘rait Ohio, that he would he Secre- ary of the Interior, TY RO)gaid it had all :been settled. Te said Mr, Daugherty was at first n favor of Senator Fall for the posi- ion but that he had bought them all wer but’ that it had cost him a lot f money to do it. That it about all know of it.” ; 25, 25,- Information Wrong “{ understand that Mr. Hamon told ou that in the make-up of the cab- net of Mr. Harding,” said Senator pencer, Republican, Missouri, “that {r.-Daugherty was in favor of Mr. all.” “Yes, but that it had been all ar- anged that he (Mr. Hamon) was to Secretary of the Interior.” “Do you think all the information e gave you turned out with the syme egree of correctness as that?” “That was the’ whole deal and that sas what he expected to get in on.” Replying to inquiries from Sena- or Dill, Democrat, Washington, Jen- ings said: “He (Hamon) wanted me to head me of his companies. He said the democrats had not left much of the ublic land but that he would get he rest of it.” “Did he speak about the oil serves 2” s “He said public lands—nothing hat I can’remember much about the il reserves. He said that money had veen very potent in Washington as vell as outlying districts of the U ‘d States. I have talked with people n Oklahoma about Hamon’s expec- ations and I do not think he kept it Jrom anybody.” : oe ASSAILS STORY Washington, Mar, 27.—The story old by Al Jennings today to the oil ommittee was branded as “false and vreposterous” “in a statement by veighton C. Taylor, former secretary to the late Senator Penrose of Penn- sylvahia, Declaring he had been in constant attendance upon the Senator while he re- ‘fhad been ill in’ Philadelphia before and after the Chicago convention Taylor said Hamon had never seen or communicated with Penrose nor had the latter ever mentioned Hamon’s name to his secretary.

The gray- ity of the landslide inthe vicinity of Amalfi yesterday grows hourly. Estimates here place the deaths ij the villages “along the coast at 5 but many of these places are cut off both from road and wire commun cation and the exact number of vic- tims is unknown. The bulk of the victims are reported at the village of Vettica (a Rome dispatch last night said there were at least 100 dead at Vettica). There is a possibility that Amer- icans-are affected as a large convoy left for Amalfi yesterday. The slide was caused by the under- mining of the shore by recent violent storms. eLater news’ from Amalfi was that the American and German tour- ists at the Amalfi hotels had left the danger points when the slides came. Drowned In Missouri, Belief Watford City, N. D., March 27.~ Word of the probable drowning of W. H. Paterson, residing’ on an island in the Missouri river north of this city, has just reached here. Mrs. Paterson’ was unable to~notify neigh- bors of her husband's disappearance for the reason that she was unable to get to shore owing to water on the ice. Paterson left home with the intention of going down the river several miles to the home of his Mother-in-law, Mrs. Wilson, to ar- range for getting a boht to the island for use during high water. It is thought probable that Paterson fell through an airhole into the river. calendar was adopt- ed by Tapaa in 1873, by the Chinese Republic in 1912, by the Turkish par- liament in 1917, by Soviet Russia in \ the Gregorian FORGER GETS 8-YEAR TERM —Judge M, J. ed a sente of cight yeurs in the state peni- tentary upon A.
