He accepted advice whole-heartedly on questions arising i their own departments, but there wwere not more than two or three men in the cabinet whose opinions he \alued on problems cutside of those departments. - It is unfortunately characteristic of the American system of govern- ment that cabinet officers become ab- sorbed in the details of tiseir own de- partments and have neither the time r the inclination to analyze other Men like Franklin K. , Secretary of the Interior, how- questions, for during peace | times there are various building proj- ects under the supervision of the ‘War Department and otaer admin | trative tasks in which a legal mind is of estimable value. And when Mr. Garrison resigned the Presideat chose another lawyer, Newton D. Baker, to become Secretary of W Lacked a Politieal Mind. Mr. Garrison did not have a politi- cal mind. His experience vn the bench had made him inflexible and logical. His deliberate opinion that a President should back up the rec- ommendations of a cabinet officer led to the subsequent break between the THE EVENING BTAR, WASHINGTON, SEIZE SINCLAIR MEN ON SAGHALIEN SLE Japanese Refuse to Permit 0il Survey Under Soviet Concession. By the Associated Press. 2 TOKIO, March 13.—Japanese military authorities have frustrated an attempt ;l-y J. P Mc(:ullnxh and D. F. Mac- Laughlin, American surveyors, repre- | senting Sinclair Oll interests, to enter {the northern section of the island of Saghalien, and have taken them on a gunboat from Saghalien to Otaru, in Hokkaido, it becamg known today. The Americans, accompanied by a Russian guide, entered Saghalien from the Siberian mainland. They were stopped at Alexandrovsk by . military officials, who declared a détermination Aot to permit .representatives of an American company to conduct surveys {under concessions from the soviet gov- crnment, whickh Japan does not recog- i 45 so7thing rash—get into a fight, B, somebody.” Pmator Walsh read into the rec- a letter sent to George B Christian, Seqretary ,to. the Presi. dent, by H. H. Tammen of the Den- ver 'Post, under date of August 1. 1922, characterizing tho situation in Teapot Dome as “an awful mess.” Letter Given to W¥all. Tammen called Christian’s atten- tion to an article in the Post on the ejection of the Mutual Oil Company from Teapot. Christian 'transmitted the letter to Fall ‘with a request for material on’which to base an answer, and Full' Yesponded with a history of the naval reserve and a discussion of the legal controversy raised as to titles upon it. Harding Asked Ouster. President Harding was acquainted personally with “a certain gentleman” | chiefly concerned in the Mutual OIl Company attempt to secure Dome oil and took a hand himself, the Fall letter indicated, in trying to dissuade his acquaintance from pursuing the enterprise, This “tertain gentleman” refused to yleld to the President’s rep- resentations. Senator Walsh asked who the “cer- | tain gentleman” was, but the witness | said he didn't know. Senator Bursum, republican, New Mexico, asked if there was any prece- dent for the marine activities, and the witness replied that none could be found in the records in the Navy not or H H | counties and D. ¢, ARLINGTON ASKS OPINION ON ROAD BOND ISSUE Virginia Attorney General Will Rule on Bonding Limits of Various Districts. Special Dispatch 10 The Star. CLARENDON, Va., March 1 Ar- thur Orr, chairman of the Arlington good roads commission, which is for- mulating plans for a proposed road bond issue in the district, announced today that he is in receipt of a letter from H. C. Shirley, chairman of the state highway commission, to whom the former body had addressed a let- ter requesting that he ascertain an opinfon from the attorney general of the state @8 to the bonding limits of districts for all pur- . The highway chdirman writes, ding o Mr. Orr, that the request has been transmitted to the attorney seneral. Stating that he belleved it would be inexpedient to call a meeting of the road commission until it is definitely settled as to amount of bonds that may be issued in the county and dis- tricts for varfous improvements, Mr. Orr said that he would not do go until the opinion is received from the at- torney general. The desirabllity of an opinion at an early date was ex- pressed In the communication to the state highway commission, Mr. Orr stated, but there is no telling when it ‘will be forthcoming.
