Government Loser In Noted Teapot Dome Oil Case
Teapot Dome leasing to Mammoth Oil and Sinclair was upheld by Judge T Blake Kennedy in Wyoming. The ruling cleared Roosevelt and others, including Rear Admiral Robison and Interior officials, of blame while affirming Fall’s secrecy and the Navy’s rights to store and manage naval oil reserves. The court discarded bank-exhibit lines and held no congressional consultation requirements. The ruling maintains government authority over oil reserves and ongoing secrecy pending Pearl Harbor storage leases.

Senator Byrd Defies Highways Contractors Association
In 1922 Virginia, a powerful coalition of highway contractors formed a corporation to influence state road policy, funded by contractor fees. Senator Byrd publicly condemned the group, faced a $100,000 lawsuit threat, and exposed dangers of privatized control over public road building. The association sued and then dissolved after a court ruled Byrd could publish his views.
