MONDAY, MAY .6, 1929 HARRY SINCLAIR'S JAIL COMMITMENT ORDERED BY COURT Oil Magnate Will Serve Sen- tence for Refusing to Testify Washington, May 6.—(#)—An order directing the commitment of Harry ¥. Sinclair, millionaire oil operator, to a common jail for refusal to an- Swer questions asked by a senate com- mittee was handed down today by Justice Hitz of the supreme court of the District of Columbia. Under the order, Sinclair in the next day or so must surrercer to a federal marshal and go behind the bars for ninety days and dc service the same as any ordinary mer. Sinclair was not in court at the time the order was issued. Just where he. is spending his few remaining hours of freedom was a matter unknown to the general public. With the expectation that Sinclair would arrive for today's proceedings More than @ score of newspaper pho- tographers and moving picture cam- €ramen gathered about Judiciary Square in which the major courts of the District of Columbia are located. Most of them, however, dispersed aft- er being advised by deputy United States marshals that the oil man ‘would not be present today. ‘Will Arrive When Ordered Mr. Hoover would not say definite- ly when Sinclair will come to Wash- ington. Court officials, however. thought the oil operator might arrive tomorrow or Wednesday. His attor- ney said Sinclair would appear when- ever Justice Hitz ordered nim to be present. Sinclair's surrender is to be made to Edgar C. Snyder, United States marshal, who, when the time arrives, will escort the wealthy oil operator to the Washington asylum and jail. It was indicated that Sinclair would Not go to the jail in an ordinary prison van, the marshal pointing out that his offense did not involve morai turpitude. The oil man, however, is not ex- Pected to give himself up until to- morrow or possibly Wednesday. No unusual preparations have been made at the Washington asylum and jail to receive the wealthy oil man. ‘Whatever his tasks, his day’s routine will begin at 5:30 in the morning and end with an early retirement to bed. Sinclair's jail sentence and a fine of $500 were imposed for his refusal five years ago to answer certain ques- tions asked him by a senate commit- tee investigating the leasing of the ‘Teapot Dome naval oil reserve in Wy- oming. He was convicted on March 16, 1927. Passes Through Courts From this conviction Sinclair ap- Pealed to the court of appeals of the District. of Columbia. This Tribunal asked the United States supreme court for instructions on certain points of law to aid it in reaching a verdict, but on motion of Owen J. Roberts and Atlee Pomerene, special government counsel, the case was taken from the court of appeals and the entire record Placed before the supreme court. The case was argued early this year and the lower court's ruling was af- firmed April 8 without dissent, the decision being read by Justice Pierce Butler, who also rendered the decision invalidating the Teapot. Dome leases made to Sinclair by Albert B. Fall as secretary of the interior. One more move was made by the oil operator, a petition for a rehear- ing, but this promptly was denied and the mandate was issued at the end of the usual 25-day period after the de- DEBENTURE PLAN I CALLED BIG WEAPON South Dakotan Thinks Idea Will Help Prevent Excessive Speculation Washington, D.
