PAGE Two. a fhe Casper Daily Cribune ALIEN PROPERTY CUSTODIAN. ON WITNESS STAND Howard Manington In Inquiry. WASHINGTON, May 15.—Thomas ‘W. Miller, the alien property cus- todian, gave the senate Daugherty investigation ‘committee some inter- esting sidelights on the conduct of the department of justice under H. M. Daugherty. Howard Manington, he sald, was introduced to him as “one af the big men” influencing the depart- ment. Manington had many times been mentioned as receiver of pay- ments in connection with liquor permits. . He also knew Jess W. Smith, Col. Miller sald, and had met Alfred Urion, John Todd and other per- sons previously mentioned in test!- mony as close ts Mr. Daugherty. His own official cuties and respon- sibilities brought him into touch with the department, he sald. “In the American Meta! company case, who appeared,” asked Senator Wheeler. “The National City bank was at- torney in fact,” Miller said, “and a man named Merte represented the bank. In that case, Senator, your representatives have been in my of. fice for a week or ten days."’ “My office passed on it and made ® recammendation to the depart- ment of justice," He added he was “not equipped with the details of the case. “Alfred Urion is a close friend of Mr, Daugherty?” Senator Wheeler asked. 2 “T would consider him so,” Miller sald.. Urion in previous records of the committee was named as attor- ney for the Dempsey-Carpentier fight film distributors. “You knew Jess Smith occupied an office at the department of jus- tie?” Senator Wheeler proceeded. “T so considered it,’ Miller replied. He testified that he had “located Smith-at the department of justice,” in telephone calls and persona! vis- its. Manington, he only saw at the Cepartment of justice on one occa- sion. “Manington came to my depart- ment once, early in 1921," Miller said, ‘representing a claimant.” “You knew Manington wasn't a lawyer, and had ng license to prac- tloo«before _governmental...depart- ments,” asked Senator Wheeler. ‘I did not. I've learned more about Manington since your hear- ings than before." “Didn't Jess Smith come to you many times and tell you what the attorney general wanted done?” “I won't deny that he told me on many occasions that Mr, Daugherty «t perhaps other people wanted romething done, but I did not take orders from Jess Smith in any mat- ter on how to run my office.” Miller testified that he had com- plained in 1922 to President Harding about appearance at his office of Jess Smith, Alfred Urion and other associates of Mr. Daugherty.

FOREST FIRE BEING DRIVEN BY HIGH WIND MISSOULA, Mont., May 15.— Driven by high winds, a fire on Pil grim Creek in the Cabinet National Forest, South of Noxon, Mont., was spreading rapidly today in a heavily forested section, according to infor- mation received at the forest ser- vice headquarters here. It has al- ready covered 600 acres and is the largest fire in Western . Montana. Forty-ight additional fire fighters were sent this morning to join the thirty men already on the ground, and it is hoped that the blaze will be checked soon. Sixteen fires, fanned by high winds are burning in the Kootenai forest, with 114 men combatting thelr ad- vance. The largest of these is on the upper Yaak River in almost in- accessable country. Crews fighting a fire on Wolf Creek have been successful so far in preventing it from penetrating into the flat head forest. Settlers in the Lightning Creek region in Idaho have been forced from their homes and one prospec- tor narrowly escaped when he was awakened by forestry patrols after the flames had almost surrounded his cabin, The Saddler fire {s the most dan- gerous flow in the Kaniksu.

The court ruled that she had fo right to a share in his property because the juridictal domicile of the Goulds was the United States where the rule of property of husband and © prevails. This decision was reached although the original divorce was granted in France lat belng confirmed by the New York courts. It was held that the French courts must main tain th American law inasmuch as the riage was contracted under the regime of separate ownership of property To Make Rich Red Blood Revitalize your worn-out ex- hausted nerves and increase your strength and endurance nic iron; not metallic iron take ¢ whieh people usually take, but pure rganic iron—Nuxated lrone—which like the iron in your blood and nin spinach, lentils and » dose of Nuxated Iron i to be oximately equiva Cin organic ting one-half quart eating ¥ iron is a ab- ready for alm immediate sorption and assimilation by the blood, while metallic tron is iron just as it comes from the action of strong acids on small pieces of iron filings.
