INPEACHER SCOE AGANST IOHNSTON ' Oklahoma Governor Loses Preliminary Skirmishes as i Trial Opens, By the Assoclated Press. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., February 12—Victorlous in the preliminary skirmishes in its prosecution of Henry 8. Johnston, suspended Governor of Oklahoma, before a Senate court of im- hment, the House of Representa- ives’ board of managers today planned to speed up introduction of evidence to prove the 11 charges against the chief executive. 4 ‘Three times yesterday defense ob- Jections to testimony of H. E. Sulli- . van, private secretary to Johnston, cen- tered about the Dewey Crossthwaite pardon—upon which one article of im- peachment is based—were overruled. Sullivan testified that James R. Arm- ‘strong, Johnston’s adviser and uncle of Mrs. O. O. Hammonds, the governor’s former confidential secretary, had called the chief executive by telephone and advised him to grant the pardon, that . medicine’ was to be made by it.” “What did the words ‘good medicine’ mean to you?” a member of the court asked. “I suppose it meant for a good cause,” Sullivan replied. Sullivan testified that Johnston had demanded that he shoulder responsi- bility for the pardon and that he re- fused. Mrs. Hammond's name was brought into the trial when Sullivan told of her activities in the governor's office. He saild she was wont to resort to tears when thwarted by Johnston, and at other times exhibited anger. — Auto Injury Damages Asked. Thomas H.

By the Assoclated Press. Robert W. Stewart's name has come before Congress again, but this time it has no connection with oil leases. A resolution introduced in the House by Representative Sproul of Kansas accused some oil refining companies of violating the prohibition laws, asked an investigation of this and also asked an_investigation of whether Stewart had any knowledge of these violations.
