US Wins Suit Against Doheny Over Elk Hills Contracts
The federal court ruled to cancel Elk Hills naval oil reserve leases and Pearl Harbor storage contracts with the Pan American Petroleum and Transport company. The decision voids agreements tied to a 1921 executive order and a $100000 payment from Edward L Doheny to Albert Fall, finding improper delegation of authority and fraud upon the United States, while ordering a full account between the United States and the defendant corporations. Doheny plans an appeal to the Circuit Court of Appeals.
