FUGITIVE WITNESS
Two of the men whom the United
States department of justice wanted
as important witnesses in the Sinclair-Fall
Teapot Dome oil case went
to Europe after the indictments had
been voted and, despite persistent
efforts and rv.visit cf a representative
of the prosecution to the present
domiciles of these witnesses, it has
been impossible to induce them
I
to
return to this country and testify
One of the
rnisfing witnesses is
Harry M. Elackmer, chairman cf the!
Midwest Rrfin'-ns company. He has'
refused to make sny statement about
the case to correspondents or law-'
I vers. Ho knows that his government
needs his testimony, yet he deliber
ately stsys outside its jurisdiction.
Because of the escape of import
ant witnesses, in the Teapot Dome
case.. Congress passed an act which
provides, when a recalcitrant witness
seek- refuge in a foreign land, for
seizure and confiscation of Lis prop
erty up to S100.000 in v,3ue.
Under the law Justice Siddcns the
ether day ordered the confiscation of
$100,000 worth of prepc-rty "ooiong-
in to Elackmer. Thereupon Black-1
mer's attorneys came forward with I such emergencies as ncKncss or n
!an offer to deposit in a bank secur- j nancinl reverses.
! ites valued at the required amount,' Business always is better when
their purpose being to prevent the
; searching of P.lackmer's papers.
i This action does not entail sur-
render of the property. Blackmer's
attorneys assert that the law in ques
tion is invalid because, they argue,
1 no subpoena lawfully can be served
on an American citizen outside of the
United Stater- or its possessions, and
In due time, the United States
Supreme Court will pass on the issue.
Meantime impartial observers will
form their own judgments concern
ing the conduct of the missing wit
nesses, the reasons which impel them
to prefer Europe to their own coun
try, and the moral standards cf law
yers who abet willful obstruction of
justice.

minded people. Millions of us have
little financial sense. Apparently
millions of us are economic illiter
ates. We do not seriously strive to
gain financial independence. Many
people, especially young people, do
not save any money. Many do not
try to save.
j ue are criticize:! aa a nation 01 (
j money grabbers, but considering the;
enormous wealth cf this country and ,
its wide distribution, standards of
wages and incomes, and the general
level of intelligence, we seem to have ,
a great many people who cannot;
make both ends meet. Some do not ,
try very hard. If such people lived j
in a country of small resources and
few opportunities, they actually,
might get along better than they do;
in this country. They would feel the
necessity of being more thrifty. j
There c'ouhtioss is a close relation'
between the waning of religion and
the improvident way mi.ny people
live. The tendency cf many people to .
keep up with their neighbors, or a j
st-p ahead of them, robs millions of j
people of their chance to save
for
j people keep up their credit and ac-
cumulate financial reserve.
The
thriftier neome are. the more se:f
reliant they become, and fewer people
count cn their communities to carry
them through emergencies.
Many communities have too many
people chronically in need of assist
ance. Either there is something radi
cally wrong with them and their at
titude toward lifs. or else the fault
lies in our economic system.

Some critics say the world war
accomplished nothing; but we notice.
that Germany, which resisted every j

If a companionate remarriage will
give Mr. and Mrs. Haldeman-Julius
greater peace of mind, far be it from
us to pish-tush the ideal! That is,
so far as that particular couple Is
concerned.
