P.)—The Government's suit to an- nul the lease of Teapot Dome to the Mammoth Oil Company, one of the Harry S. Sinclair group, opened in Federal Court here this afternoon, before Judge Blake Kennedy. Atlee Pamerene, associated with Owen J, Robert as special counsel for the Government, opened the read-. ing of the statement which reviewed briefly the transactions that led up to the granting of the lease to the Mammoth Company. Mr. Pomerene declared the Gov: ernment would seek a revocation of on two grounds, first, that s without any authority of law because it was left to the Mammoth without competitive bidding and without: having been advertised. He charged secondly, at the lease and the contract e “entered into as a result of conspiracy on the part of Sinclair and the Secretary of the Interior.” This alleged conspiracy, Mr. New York, March 9—-The New York state athletic commission wir- ed Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham- pion at Los Angeles, demanding that he reply within 24 hours to the chal- lenge filed by Harry Wills, negro contender for a title match here, Change Starts Row The commission, taking action t# force Dempsey to meet his negro challenger before taking on any oth- er opponents within its jurisdiction, notified the champion that Wills’ formal challenge had been filed Feb. 17 last, a week prior to the one filed by Tom Gibbons, St. Paul heavy- weight. The action on the heavyweight sit- uation followed an unexpected shift in the organization of the commis- sion by which James A. Farley, of Stony Point, N. Y., replaced George E. Brower, as chairman. Farley was elected by the votes of himself and the remaining commissioner, Wm. Muldoon, at a meeting which was not attended by Brower. Dempsey must accept or decline the Wills challenge or take his place among the blacklisted in this state. Chairman James J. Farley, speak- ing for the commission, said: “The commission has decreed that the, Wills challenge should be given pre- cedence over the Gibbons challenge because it was filed first. We have taken both challenges under careful consideration, and find that the only way we can get any action is by taking the matter right to headquar- ters. i “Dempsey must make.’ decision, one way or the'othér, on the Wills challenge now.” Pom- of the government. He charged that through fraud and secrecy the de- tails were kept from the Government officials. Edward C.

Rev. Bishop Paul Jones, who is a secretary of the World Fellowship of Reéonciliation, condemned the “mora! dualism” of Christianity today, the “empty ma- terialism” of prevailing philosophy, and war as a destroyer of spiritual vitality. By “spiritual death rate”. Bishop Jones explained he meant the way in which people go through the process of gradually losing their ideals, sell- ing out spiritually, and substituting other sets of values. As an example he cited a sign in a bank about suc- cess, in whichdollar signs are used for “S"s and cents signs for “Cs. “We worship numbers, the cost of things, speed, size,” he said, “the question of quality dropping out of our thinking altogether,” Few religions have been less in- sistent than Christianity upon the practical application of their ideals, continued Bishop Jones, And taking up several cardinal principles of Christianity, he proceeded to point out the moral dualism of conduct and principle which saps spiritual vitality. “You ‘heard everywhere,” he said, in connection with forgiveness, cit- 'g an example from the, last war, hat Germany had shown no signs yesterday morn-| prevents the public from ever. think- ing?” Asking the question, “what ate the conditions that pull down spiritual vitality, which must be changed?” he answered, the basis of producing sim- | ply for profits rather than to sat fy the real needs of society. “THe work of the world,” he said, “is done in an’atmosphere of combat.” tinue as the perfectly legal, respect- able and honorable way of settling difficulties between nations, where does human lif® and human welfare and with us?” he asked, | Bishop Jones emphasized the evils ‘of war, particularly im the destruc- tion of human standards of conduct, jand pointed out that “war has its latana (ap) in every country in the world, through every church “almost, and through every educational, in- stitution, the Government subsidizing practically only those institutiong that provide military training.” “We cannot have very much 3] tual vitality as long as things a: settled that way.” Conditions must be tested by the worth of persoi ty, of individual responsibility, and of Christian love, he concluded. Bishop Jones who spoke yesterday morning at St. George's Episcopal Church on “The Simplicity of God,” and at the evening service in the same church on “What is a first century gospel worth today?” will speak in St. George's Church ‘evéry evening this week at 8 o'clock, ex- cept on Saturday.
