HAYS RECALL R 3 I It was peculiar reasoming that was advanced by Will Hays, former Chairman of the Republi can National Committee and now “Movie Czar,’ to explain his failure to fully inform the Walsh Investigating Committee regarding the Sinclalr donations. Even admitting that the excuses he sots up are genuine, it would seem that he was more anxious to keep certain facts, whether im-| portant or not, concealed than to enlighten the| " committee in its efforts to find out what had happened with the millions involved in the Tea- pot Dome Oil deal. In Mr. Hays told the committee that Sinclair had donated §75,000 toward defraying the Republican campaign ex penses of 1920. So far as he informed the com- mittee at that time that was all of Sinc ].-|~‘ donations. Four years elapsed in which Senator Walsh held doggedly to the slimy oil tr 1. Fact after| fact was uncovered; that there were $24,000 in bonds from the famous Continental Oil deal went| to the Republican National Committee; that an-| 4 other $75,000 went to Semator T. Coleman du Pont, who helped liquidate the 1920 campaign deficit estimated at $1,600,000. Again Mr. Hays was called. And this time he tells the Com- mittee that Sinclair handed him $260,000 in bonds after the lease to Teapot Dome had been | awarded to him. Of this sum, Mr. Hays now| & says $100,000 was returned to Sinclair and the 8 remainder applied to the campaign deficit. He # explained he had remained silent in 1924 be-| : cause the Commiftee only questioned him about the $75,000 deal and, further, he had expected to return the entire $260,000 to the " wealthy ___oil man, Granting that such was his intention, S~ the fact remains it was not done and no word about the transaction was said by him voluntarily although the committee has been working con- tinuously since that time to uncover the financial transactions regarded as suspicious, unethical and possibly illegal. Whether consc: fously or not, he| made the work of the investigators more difficult and in the end did not add to the prestige of either himself or the party which he represented e O et PES CONVICTED OF LIBEL. | In 40 minutes the other day, Rev. Marna Superintendent of the Anti- Foulson, New Jersey Saloon League, was found guilty by a Newark of having criminally libeled thr ark Judges on November 4, last year. At that time he linked the names of three judicial officers with ‘“the vicious combination of organ- jzed vice and disorganized law enforcement.” The Anti-Saloon head was fined $500. Pend- ing an appeal, he has gone baek to his job ot bossing the wo of the League in the State The Judge presiding over the trial, before pro: nouncing sentence made a few remarks that Rev. Poulson, and others like himself over-zealous to impose the “fanatical will on unsympathetic citi- zens, might well take to heart. He said: You have borne false witness against your meighbor. You have injured the reputations of three men, who, through long years of effort, have raised them- selves to positions of dignity and im- portance. No matter what you do, no matter what this court does, they can never entirely free themselves in the public’s estimation of the taint you have so unjustly placed upom them by your libel. Instead of manfully ad- mitting your error a long time ago, you have come here in court and pre- tended to produce evidence to support your charges. In this you have utterly failed.

But where false testimony * is glven by one, the damage i8 greater than were the false witness not a “man of the cloth.” Perhaps Superintendent Poulson has learned his lesson and, through him, others. Perhaps the realization of the truth of the Judge's words— . “from now on you stand before the world as a man with a record—one previously convicted of & crime. That knowledge will be an unbidden 'nut at your fireside throughout the years to ‘oonc '—will_indeed be a punishment much great- _er than any the court could have imposed upon TAMING THE SHARK. ] Van Campen Heilner, Spring Lake, N.

(Engineering and Mining Journal.) From a thoughtful address delivered recently by Dr. C. R. Richards, of Lehigh University, at the Nashville meeting of the American Asso- clation for the Advancement of Science, one might evolve yet another definition of engineer- ing: The application of fundamental science to the constructive and industrial arts. Doctor Rich- ards maintains that no industry can feel secure until it is fully aware of the scientific basis of its activities; that additions to knowledge result from scientific research; that developments in industry follow the adaptation of such knowledge as a result of industrial research, and that on the combined outcome of scientific research and ilization and the improvement of the status of man. It were illogical to dispute the fact that the great majority of engineers have neither the background mnor the time to study each of the manifold advances in scientific thought. Doctor Richards suggests that the sclemtist and the en- gineer can be brought together to the advantage of both by widening the scope and defining the program of Section M of the Association. Rep- resentatives of the various branches of engineer- ing should, at the meetings, summarize the latest applications of scientific knowledge to the indus- trial arts; and the pure scientists might well interpret and present the possible applications of the latest discoveries in their fields. The technique of engineering is already ade- quately covered by the various engineering so- cieties. What is needed is‘'a more orderly and systematic contact of engineers with those versed in theoretical and scientific fundamentals. A new journal is suggested, designed to publish in these ideas have merit and deserve consideration. the well-fitting title.—(Milwaukee Journal.)
