Refuses to Tell Source of Bonds in Teapot Dome Case
Washington October 27 AP Part of the testimony of Harry F Sinclair before the senate oil committee was excluded from the Teapot Dome trial by a district court ruling. The judge held that testimony given before a congressional committee could not be used as evidence in the trial. The government sought to place statements by Sinclair and Albert B Fall before the jury. The ruling curtails the government’s effort to connect bonds and payments to the Teapot Dome leases.

Clergy vote says Prohibition a failure in temperance drive
New York Oct 27 AP Reported by Rev Dr Charles Livingston says twenty five hundred Protestant Episcopal ministers in the United States voted by almost two to one that Prohibition has failed as a solution to intemperance. A national poll by the National Episcopal Church Temperance Society found ministers favor modifying the Volstead Act and repealing the Eighteenth Amendment, with willingness to cooperate for practical temperance legislation. Half of 5000 rectors and curates returned surveys, showing clergy as individuals oppose the Volstead law though they do not want saloons. They argue prohibition should go for morality, noting beer has been removed but distilled poison remains.
