One excerpt showed Doheny as saying that he expected to realize a profit of $100,000,000 from the Elk Hills lease. Rear Admiral J. K. Robison, handled the oil lease negotiations for the navy, likewise testified before the senate committee and his testi- was mony went as government evidence ! to fix the dates during which the negotiations were in progress.
