. KHE DAILY WORKER DESCENT OF DAUGHERTY Hectic Secret Session Says He Must Co (Special to The Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.— Attorney General Daugherty will leave the cabinet; the only question remaining to be de- cided is when and how he shall go, it was learned today on the authority of those close to President Coolidge. An an- nouncement will be made with- in 48 hours. Conferences scheduled for today between Mr. Coolidge and his advisors and with rep- resentatives of the Attorney General are expected to cry- stalize an understanding on the date and manner of Daugher- ty’s withdrawal from public life. The attorney general is under- stood to be holding out determinedly for postponement of his resignation until after the senate committee to be named under the Wheeler reso- lution has given him a public hear- ing and an opportunity to defend himself against charges that he has not vigorously prosecuted offenders and that his conduct of the depart- ment of justice has weakened public confidence. Daugherty Stubborn. Conferences which lasted until late last night failed to bring the attor- ney general around to the view of those who feel he should get out now. It was suggested that Daugh- erty agree to withdraw if Senator Wheeler would drop his resolution for a senate investigation. This sug- gestion, it was understood, did not get far. _ The utmost secrecy was maintained at the White House and among Daugherty’s advisers regarding the White House conferences yesterday. First Paul Howland of Cleveland, Daugherty’s personal counsel, saw President Coolidge. Then Daugherty, Secretary of | War Weeks and Postmaster General New talked for more than an hour with Mr. Coolidge. Howland went ,back to the White House in the af- # ternoon and last, night Daugherty As Investigation done in oil today. made raw the nostrils of many an old political war horse. Daugherty Center of Attack. Just now Daugherty is the high light of the republican tragedy that is being enacted here in countless scenes and in- definite acts. Yet, the atten- tive observer feels that at any moment something bigger might break, new oil deposits might be discovered, and new Teapot Cabinet heroes or presi- dential secretaries might be un- covered. | The leadership in the present fight on Daugherty has fallen on the shoulders of the junior senator from Montana, Burton K. Wheeler. In launching the attack on Daugherty Mr, Wheeler has picked for himself the job of cracking the hardest and toughest nut in Coolidge’s whole hard-boiled Cabinet. The attorney- general knows the rules and ruses of the political jungle perhaps better than any man in the wild thickets of politics today. , Wheeler knows what he is up against, but he is determined to go thru with the fight. One of the senators who has been in the thick and thin of the Pp mt oil fight told me: “This time Wheeler is going to get him. This is a finish fight on Daugherty. And, by God, I know there is no- body and nothing that can stop this from being a finished fight, with | Daugherty being counted out. Wheeler won’t stop even if he has to draw Daugherty into all the pro- hibition scandals which may pull Mellon and others along with the wreaker-General Fights Back. The attorney-general has already marshalled his force for a fierce counter-attack. I have learned from most reliable sources that William J. Bu at the express orders of | Daugherty, has wired his numerous) agents in Montana to rush Wheeler's war record and ything else they have on him to Washington. Daugh- erty has sent out his entire squad of Burns bomb agents with strict orders to shoot to kill the truth about Wheeler in order to rattle a few skeletons in the Senators face.

With the unexpected summoning to the White House last night of C. Bascom Slemp, secretary to Presi- dent Coolidge, it was thought for a while that Daugherty’s resigna- tion would be announced then. Slemp conferred with the president, Wil- liam M. Butler, manager of Mr. Coolidge’s campaign for the prest- dency, and Frank W. Stearns, close personal friend and adviser of the president. The dating of Daugherty’s resig- nation sufficiently ahead to give him time to meet the chargey against his administration of the department of Justice, still seemed today to bé one of the most likely solutions. ¢ * * & « Emporia Paper Makes Statement. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 27.—Wil- Mam Allen White of Emporia, Kan- fas, here on a brief visit, gave out the following statement on the oil seandal yesterday: If I were a republican in the senate, I should offer an amend- ment to the Wheeler resolution calling for the investigation of Daugherty, and in the amendment I_should add the name of A. Mitchell Palmer to the resolution. If the democrats did not vote for the amendment their refusal would put the hand of insincerity on them. If they did vote for the amendment it would keep the democrats busy ban grveny| in the eampaign and prove that it is not one party or the other that is crooked but the loose and dis- illusioned times.

Daugherty and Burns Desperate Heads Their Way By JAY LOVESTONE WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—Everything in Washington is You can’t talk to anybody for even a few minutes without stepping into some oil cesspool. The scent of oil is everywhere and it has irritated and scorching publicity. The Attorney-General is now mak- ing full use of the elaborate, detailed card-index system that his bureau of investigation headed by William J, Burns has compiled on every “dan- gerous” progressive, Senator and Congressman. Daugherty’s first de- nunciation of Wheeler’s resolution was vociferous but undamaging. It was the hackneyed, old, thread-bare attack of Burns that Wheeler was a Bolshevik and was once the I, W. W. candidate for office in Montana. Crime For Wheeler to Know Dunne. Daugherty is planning to brand Wheeler as a pro-German and to lash him for his alleged failure to prose- eute certain cases during the war while he was Federal District At-|" torney. One of the worst crimes charged to Wheeler by the Burns blast is that he was “a firm friend of William F, Dunne, a publisher at Butte, who is known to have exceed- ingly radical tendencies” and now is serving as one of the editors of the DAILY WORKER. People here don’t take the Burns- Daugherty counter-offensive serious- ly. Everybody knows that Daugh- erty,should be the last one to say a singfe word about not trying suffici- ent war cases. The Attorney-Gen- eral’s own record in the war fraud cases, for instance, has, to date, been of not trying cases often enough and failing all too often when he did at- tempt to try such war fraud cases. And as to Burns, it is common knowl- edge here that his detective agency was extensively employed’ by the Im- perial German Government during the war. To Be Forced Out. “And what about Daugherty’s threat to take his case to the peo- ple?” I asked the Senator. “That’s all bunk. It’s rot. Daugherty once tried one of his cases before the peo- ple in his own state. of Ohio when his record wasn’t half as notorious as today and he was licked to a frazzle by an opponent, who was practically unknown, for the office of delegate to the Republican conven- tion. Daugherty of course, dare not go out to tell all he knows about almost everyone of his colleagues. His quitting is only a matter of days. We will force him out and rid the country of his baneful presence in the plain that Daugherty hopes thus to|high post which he now holds in the draw away from himself some of the | government.” WASHINGTON GOSSIP LENROOT ADMITS WARNING FALL OF HIS DANGER Smoot Also Joined in Yelling “Beware” (Continued from page 1.) the case.

McLean, Washington publisher, during his recent sojourn in Palm Beach. Official announcement that the mysterious “McAdoo” was the son of the democratic leader was made by Chairman Lenroot of the committee after the telegrams had been read today. 4 the messages made public showed how closely McL§n, pub- lisher of the Washington Post, was kept informed of Washington devel- opments regarding the naval oil scandal, Names of many persons who have figured in the inquiry were men- tioned in them.

Fred Starek, of the war finance corporation, was anxious to get in touch with McLean “on what he says is ‘an important matter,” Major wired on one occasion, adding he did not believe it was about “the main issue,” but about “a New York | transaction.” f The Federated Press) Ten VORA EARN ANAND. ene eu CORSE LO TUUBtY ANMIToM ated i —— e nation, e said Borah in an impa sioned talk to the Senate on the Daugherty scandal, the poents are distrustful of the head of the Department of Justice.

McLean, Albert B. Fall and Fall’s lawyer, Glasgow, at Palm Beach in December and January. He could remember that McLean, walking with him on the sand, had said “I’m going to tell ’em all,” but he had not asked » ea Wic- Lean to call him on the long ‘distance Major was also in communication with McLean, the telegram shows, over the departure of Wilton Lam- any questions, He remembered that Fall, after a dinner at McLean’s house, where they all met daily, said that he, also, was going to tell the whole truth. Still the secretary to the President asked no questions. And he did not report to Mr. Coolidge on the confessions’ of. the former cabinet member and the owner of the Washington Post that they had deliberately lied to! the Senate committee. The Innocent Slemp. He was just an innocent tourist, and an old friend of McLean! Word had run about the capitol that the foxy Slemp was to be ques- tioned as to certain telegrams of warning, from leading Republican senators on the committee, to pros- pective witnesses. There had been a “leak” of information that sub- poenas were to be issued, and the men wanted had had private infor- mation that they would be sum- moned, Slemp was not asked direct- KA as to whether he had heard of these private tips to witnesses, but Sen. Walsh did ask him how long before Walsh arrived in Palm Beach the McLean-Fall house-party had been informed of his coming. Slemp thought they learned it first from the newspapers. Really, they had been thinking of other things, talk- ing about the Volstead law and the weather, senators, and the oil case had not been much discussed! Worthless Checks. When Mr. Coolidge’s confidential man was asked how it happened that he could meet and talk with Fall in Palm Beach, while Senator Walsh, representing the committee, could not get at the ex-cabinet member, Slemp replied that he was “not. Mr. Fall’s or Mr. McLean's keeper”. He had never had anything to do with the oil leases, and did not care to ask questions. In the hope of locating the hidden funds against which McLean drew the alleged checks for $100,000 below $5,000 in any of them. The checks he says he gave seem to have been worthless if they ever existed, Doheny New Leader. | At the White House, the flag of ‘loyalty to Daugherty still flew, and much satisfaction was taken in the fact that Doheny had come to the political support of the president and Daugherty and Denby. But on the | Senate floar the daily offering of at- tacks on the Senate committee and on the Wheeler resolution aimed at Daugherty’s misuse of the Depart- ment of Justice, in McLean’s news- paper, was torn to tatters by Walsh and by Heflin of Alabama, Heflin pointed to Doheny’s “new leadership of the Republican party”, and to Doheny’s admission that he talked European oil, at the mil- lionaire Metropolitan Club here, with five members of the Harding-Cool- idge cabinet. He remarked that Doheny could not be expected to see anything but prosperity under Re- publican rule, since “he has got his, at the hands of this party”, and the bankruptcy and despair of the farm- ers and small business men doeg not touch him. - The Ghost at the Feast. Walsh of Massachusetts _inter- rupted him by reading a telegram from Fall River, begging for* federal aid because the cotton mills are all closed down, and suffering has fol- lowed general unemployment. H. Foster Bain, chief of the Bureau of Mines by appointment under Fall, was grilled by the committee as to the meaning of his letter,-previously put in evidence, urging that Daugher- ty be asked to give a favorable opinion on the sashes contract deals, since Standard Oil and other big interests had refused to bid be- cause they were illegal, Walsh asked him why he had not insisted on get- ting the opinion before the contracts were let, and why he had considered it unwise to seek an opinion after- ward, Bain, who proved adroit, stubborn Thursday, February 28, 1924 DAUGHERTY IN. FLIGHT; CHICAGO AND FLORIDA Left His Resignation with Coolidge? | (Special to The Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, Feb, 27,—Attor- ney General Daugherty today left Washington on a trip to Chicago and Florida. His office announced that the trip was taken on personal business. Daugherty’s unexpected departure came at a time when he was believed to be preparing a statement an- nouncing his intention to resign or remain in office. He conferred with President Coolidge twice during the day and announced he would have an important statement to make later in the day. Instead he motored to the station after his second conference with the president and took a fast train for Chicago which was held five minutes in order that he catch it, Some time after Daugherty’s de- parture, his office announced that he was going to Chicago on government business and then was going on to Florida on “personal business.” There was no mention made in the statement of his resignation other than to say the department was “functioning one hundred per cent.” The statement issued at Daugh- erty’s office"follows: “T have been called to Florida on a personal matter but I am compell- ed first to go to Chicago to attend to important government business which demands my personal atten- tion. “I will return from Florida as soon as I can. In the meantime, proper attention will be given to all govern- ment matters. The department of justice is functioning ™)0 per cent. Tho temporarily absent, I shall, nevertheless, be in constant touch with the department. Several im- portant cases and other pressing matters which require my personal attention will be taken along with me in order to facilitate action thereon.” Daugherty arrived at the station accompanied only by W. J. Burns, de- partment of justice director of in- vestigation, and his secretary. Burns did not take the train with him, It was reported at the White House that Daugherty had left his resignation with the president before leaving town.

Hence he helped to cover it)’ SACRAMENTO, Calif, Feb. 27.— most of this time his balance was! up, Pinchot Says Palmer Aided government. the highest officials in their For the continuance of this situation onl i Coolidge can be held responsible. As president mly Calvin of the United States he has sole responsibility for Daugherty’s continuing, from hour to hour, at the head of that vital department—the most important of all the ex- ecutive departments of the government—when the country is aghast at wholesale viola- tions of law. There igs a lot of senatorial cour- tesy and dodging of hard words, in any discussion of a cabinet member by a prominent leader of the same party, even when that cabinet member is Harry Daugh- erty and that leader is Borah. But the meaning of the Idaho senator’s talk was quite clear; he was warning Coolidge that Coolidge himself would soon be considered to be “oiled” and politically ruined if he did not kick Daugherty out and put a responsible and capable man into his place, National Chairman Adams might bf to bolster up Daugherty with what Senator Robinson called “a wild cry of rage” at Lodge and Pep- per and the republican member- ship of the senate, who had asked Coolidge to get rid of the attorney | general. Adams might claim that “blackguards and scandal-mongers” in the senate had conspired to ruin Harding’s fiend. Yet, Robinson said, the count#y was aware that the only activity to which the agencies and resources of the department had yet been devoted in this .gravest of all national scandals was to organize for defense of Daugherty. This fact of stubborn failure to uphold the law against lawbreakers, known to the people, would amply justify the instant removal of such an officer while official inquiry into the details of his official conduct was being ar- ranged. Daugherty was entitled to a fair trial, but he was not entitled to the privilege of blockin enforcement of law while ¢! is_in- quiry into his past offense should be | lib: in progress, Editors all over the country who have hastily guessed that the oil scandal is dying out, merely be- cause it is embarrassing to Calvin Coolidge, must revise their opin- jons. Denunciations of Senator Wheeler and crocodile tears for the physical collapse. of Senator Walsh are premature. The two senators. from Montana are get- ting at the stock gamblers names, and winnings or losses are being uncovered, and every day further names are being added to the list of politicians or public officials here who have been parties to the ol] graft orry. Doheny is just now attacking Wheeler for saying that Doheny went to Daugherty’s spart- | ment, but he is not saying that Daugherty did not visit Doheny’s apartment in the Wardman Park hotel here. The half of the in- trigue has not been told. Cabinet changes are rumored so frequently that it seems certain that a number of resignations will soon be filed. “ Hughes is said to have been ready to quit, for a month past. He wants to get back into the profit- able practice of law. Unlike James M. Beck, solicitor general and chief defender of Daugherty, who formerly was one of Standard Oil’s lawyers and attorney for the sugar trust, Hughes has not yet made a fortune. Hoover has recently found desir- able jobs, in private business, for a number of his friends in the depart- ment of commerce—the kind of pro- tection that a man generally tries to give his friends when he is leav- ing a big lic quarrelled with Wallace, head of the department of agriculture, and he has disliked the association with Daugherty in the cabinet. With Daugherty gone, he might take Hughes’ job if the latter quit, Wallace is ready to resign, be- cause he no longer agrees with the president or with Secretary Mellon or Hoover as to*help for the farm- ers. He has been driven to endorse the McNary farm export credit bill, which is to be substituted in con- gress for the more radical Sinclair- Norris bill for federal control of farm marketing at home and abroad. Friends of Borah wonder whether he will be a stampede candidate against Coolidge, in the Cleveland convention, A book of his speeches, just publish- ed, shows that he has drawn a sharp line between himself and Coolidge, on the Russian question, freedom of speech, constituti e rty, imperialism, and many other iss He will be page ag A, the Cleveland convention, He may even become a sort of salvage contractor to gather up the wreckage, after the oil scandal has battered the admin- istration to bits, The Old Guard is afraid of him, yet dare not read him out of its inner councils, He will probably make the one notable speech of the entire convention, Only a Barber Shop Fire.
