Navy testimony In defense at the oil leasing policy or 1822 was put on the dissecting table today by Government counsel In the Fall-Doheny oonsplraoy trial. The witness ohalr was occupied by Rear Admiral J. K. Robison, who spoke for the Navy Department In the negotiations which resulted in award of several oil contracts to Edward L. Doheny, while Albert B.

Fall was Secretary of the Interior. Owen J. Roberta of Government counsel conducted a cross-examination that brought the Admiral under a pelting storm of questions aboutf many vital features of his previous testimony. The witness conceded that he had made a mistake in saying In the Los Angeles civil trial for cancellation of the leases, that he had not mentioned the matter to Doheny in talks they had In New York. He also permitted Roberts to correct from the official record a statement he had made about what took plaoe at the leasing conference at the Navy Department, identified a draft of a letter in which Fall had Inserted the words or otherwise, after a stipulation that the leases were to be awarded by competitive bidding.

Estimates of Reserve Oils Worth Recalling Dohenye statement before the Senate Oil Committee that he expected to make 9100,000,000 out of the Elk Hills contract, Roberts pressed the Admiral to -estimate the value of the whole Elk Hills reserve. The witness replied that he valued the entire tract at half a million. You have testified that the Pan-American (Doheny) bid on the Peiyrl Harbor, Hawaii, project was $233,000 lower than the next best bid, Roberts said, and you knew that contract carried the preferential rights clause? Yes. Than you Valued the Elk Hills reserve at No; there are other savings to the Government under the Pearl Harbor contract. Well, how muchdld they amount to? Perhaps as much again Then in approving the Pearl Harbor bid you valued the oil in the Elk Hills reserve at amout Thats Just the figure thats the figure I used In talking with Secretary Denby, said Robison.

They got the contract on that basis. First Call on Elk Hills Contract Under the prreferential rights clause of the Pearl Harbor storage contract, Dohenys Pan-American Company was given first call on the Elk Hills contract, then still In contemplation. Robison said he had not discussed the value of this clause with the Interior Department officials. He previously had said he himself did not consider the clause very Important, being interested chlefiy in getting the oil stored at Pearl Harbor as a measure of national defense. Robison said he knew at the time that petroleum technologists of the Bureau of Mines placed a great value on the Elk Hills Reserve, but he never heard any specific figure.

Roberts attack was growing more and more fiery and the Admirals response more and more emphatic. Once he shouted at his interrogator: I never make any attempt to force one story to conform to anything I have testified before. I recite my best recollection of the moment, and if Lmake a mistage I have no hesitancy in changing the story. I never trim; I tell the truth, and thats 'the chief thing. Andthat is still your attitude? the attorney asked.

It is; I never trim, Oil Storage for Stragetic Reasons The Admiral already had described to the jury in general terms why the navy desired, for strategic reasons, to establish an oil storage depot at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Today the defense drew out additional details of the story, while the prosecution watched every opportunity to bring out evidence designed to show that the navys policies were not the compelling force behind the leasing of tne oil reserves. The Government la seeking to 'show that Albert B. Fall, Os Secretary of the Interior, Influenced the policy under which the Elk Hills and Pearl Harbor contracts were awarded to his personal friend, Edward L. Doheny, from whom he had received a loan, of $100,000.

These awards form the basis of the conspiracy charge pending against Fall ard the multimillionaire oil man. It had been suggested that Secretary Wilbur might be called out of this morning to explain why he had sent a letter to Robison, warning him that- confidential information must not be disclose i. Defense counsel said lab the outset of the days session, however, that a they interpreted the rules of, procedure, Robisons' testimony could not be interrupted to hear the Secretary of the Navy today. Why Leasing Pelicy was Decided Oa Mr Doheny was back in his usual place at the big. counsel table just in front of the bench today, despite the illness which caused hi3 physicians to order him to bed after.

Saturdays adjournments The 70-year-old oil magnate appeared to be in his customary good health. His physicians said the hand Infection which had been worrying him was yielding to treatment. Mr Robison began todays testimony with an account of the conversation which led the then Secretary of the Navy, Edwin Denby, to approve Robison's proposal to lease the Elk Hills reserve. Convinced that the first fellow to drill a well would get all the oil out of the reserve, Robison said he told his chief the Government should have an oil organization on the scene as sort of perpetual watchdog of its interests. The only practicable way to do that, he said, was through the leasing policy, which had previously been suggested to subordinate officials of the Interior Department.

Navy Department Demanded Secrecy Defense counsel required only a few mlnutes'to complete their direct examination of tie witness and then Owen Roberts, for the prosecution, began the cross-examination. Half a dozen sharp questions failed to shake Robisons story that only the desire to protect national defense plans dictated the navys policy of secrecy in the Pearl Harbor negotiations. He reiterated that the demand for secrecy originated in the Navy Department and not in Falls Jurisdiction. Roberts presented the first draft of a letter of November, 1922, from Fall to Denby, which Robison had helped draft, regarding the Elk Hills leasing The sentence in the draft regarding the method of leasing originally called for awards on the basis of public competition. In Falls handwriting, thei words or otherwise had been inserted.

Falls Statement, Not True When asked if he had presented a letter from Doheny at a Navy Department conference on Nov 29, 1922, Robison said he had not, to the best of his recollection. 'Robert then read the minutes of the meeting, quoting Robisons words In reference to this letter, which, the record indicated, had MRS MARY A. OSGOOD ACCIDENTAL GAS VICTIM, HAVERHILL, Dec 6 (A.

GROVES WASHINGTON, Dec 8-Plans and specifications forthe new Veterans I Bureau Hospital to be erected near Bedford, Maas, are practically complete, Gen Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans Bureau, announced this morning. Thfe complete hospital group will consist of 20 buildings comprising the hospital proper, personnel and service buildings, the primary facilities providing for approximately 350 beds, I while plans have been made to allow Cgr a possible increase up to 800 or 3000 beds as the need may develop in the future. All the buildings will be connected by covered aorrldors for use in inclement weather.

In designing this proj- ect and attempt has been made to take evepy advantage of the individual facilities offered and of the slope of the land, which is to the southeast. Upon approaching the hospital one will see first the administration building, which will house all of the business affairs of the hospital and will include offices for most of the executives. Adjacent to this will be the main infirmary building, providing approximately 340 beds for the more Infirm cases. This building will be provided with the most up-to-date clinical and diagnostic facilities obtainable, Including X-ray, phylo-therapy, operating suite and all other necessary clinical activities. A receiving ward will also be included in this building, where all preliminary study and diagnostic work will be carried on.

Each ward will have its own dining room and complete diet kitchen, so that service of hot food to the patients will be possible at any time, practically independent of the main kitchen. The main dining hall and kitchen will be erected close io the main infirmary building and the building for the more disturbed cases, so that such food as may be necessary to carry to these buildings may be de? livered there with the least possible delay. The continued treatment buildings, which will accommodate 313 beds each, have been designed especially with a view to providing the utmost convenience and comfort for the patients, and it is believed that when finished they will be far superior to any buildings of their type now existing. Quarters will be provided for approximately 11 doctors and for all necessary nurses and attendants. A recreation building which will seat over 500 will also contain a gymnasium And will be so plaoed on tne grounds as to bo most convenient both to the patients and their visitors.

The service group will consist of boiler house, laundry, garage and storehouse, and the spurtrack already on the property wilt be extended eo as to serve for delivering supplies to the hospital. Bids will be called for In January, 3927. DIVORCE GRANTED TO SALVATION ARMY WIFE Mrs Roseitna T. Ttfeer, a Cambrldgt Balvatlon Army lassie, was granted a divorce from her husband, Harold E.

BUCHAREST, Rumania, Dec 6 (A. King Ferdinand today underwent a surgical operation.

His physicians announced that the operation was successful. i The operation, for hemorrhoids, was not a dangerous one. His physicians say the King will be able to leave his bed within a few days. The operation was performed shortly after the publication of a medical bulletin published over the signature of six prominent doctors who have been treating him for a recto-sigmoial affection, that the King was officially convalescent. King Met Maries Train The Kings physical appearance when he went to the station to meet Maries train Saturday on her return from her American tour seemed anything but robust, but he walked "with out difficulty, and certainly did not appear to be a man in immediate danger of death.

The correspondent who accompanied Marie to Bucharest from the Jugoslavian frontier, failed to note any particular enthusiasm over her return, but the failure of the train to run on schedule and the several Inches of snow on the ground may have been responsible for this.

Robert continued. The record shows the facts, I presume, replied Robison.

The meeting developed objection to the leasing of Elk Hills reserve, as suggested by Robison, Fall and Do-henny. Fall was quoted as having said: "If we dont get this oil out now tnere won't be any three months from now. And, of course, that statement is not true? Roberts said.

Robison conueded that three oil company officials in California had informed Interior Department representatives' they in advance the legality of the Elk Hills and Pearl Harbor contracts, but he said he did nothing about it. because he felt that legal details were for the attention of legal minds. He was interested principally in the major strategic factors. Competition Not Destroyed, he Says The Admiral then was asked to ex Slain his testimony two years ago in he Los Angeles civil suit for invalidation of the Doheny contracts. The witness said he had testified to only one meeting with Doheny and his son in New York early in 3922.

As a matter of fact, he now recalled two meetings. At a dinner at the Rltz on New Years he had not discussed oil leases; but at a later evening at the Doheny home, he did broach the subject in general terms. He eaid this explana-tkm 'reconciled, his Los Angeles testi mony, that he had not discussqd leases with Doheny In New York, with his statement in the present trial that he had mentioned the subject during his New York visit. Admiral Robison did not agree with the prosecutors conclusion that the plan of Dohenys Pan-American Company to submit an alternate bid on the Pear! Harbor project, in addition to the bid specified in the Interior Department's Invitations for proposals, destroyed every vestige or competition in the bidding.
