NEW YORK, July 1. The New
York Times today published a
copyright Intervley in which Ed
ward L. Dolreny, giving his own
story on naval lease discourses
what he indicates has been re
garded hitherto as a great mili
tary secret.
Protoctiiur Oil Land.
Rpenklng at Los Angeles to a
staff correspondent against the
advice of counsel, the Times says,
Mr. Doheny said there never
would have been an Elk Hills
lease, nor would his company have
undertaken Uie construction ot
the Peart. Harbor naval oil base,
had not Rear-Admiral John K.
Itobison, rhlcf of the naval bu
reau of engineering In Washing
ton, convinced hi in that a great
war In the Pacific threatened the
United States In 1921 and that
the proposed Hawaiian oil ban
was the one link In the defensive
chain on which depended victory
or defeat for the United States.
Will (io On Trial.
Mr. Doheny will go to trial In
Washington In October on a
charge of criminal conspiracy with
Albert B. Fall, former secretary
of tha interior, In connection with
the Elk Hills oil lease, which tlrn
government in the Los Angeles
Federal Court succeeded in in
validating. The story of naval officers'
fears of war In the Pacific, Mr.
Doheny aays, was contained in a
deposition by Admiral Robison
put In evidence in the trials ot
the suits to annul the Teapot
Dome and Elk Hills leiiw, but the
portion relating to tha military
secret was stricken out. In this
connection Secretary Wilbur, sub
poenaed to produce certain docu
ments, nnt a certificate that it
would be against the national In
terests to do so, Mr. Doheny said.
Ho called attention to remarks
by Judge Kennedy in the Teapot
IHime decision that there was no
further need for secrecy.
Itecnlls Horrors of War.
"Robison called to mind the
horrors of the Invasion of Bel
gium," Mr. Doheny said. "With
a force I shall never forget, he
asked me to visualise the result
of even a temporary alhen Inva
sion of the Pacific Coast.
"lie startled me with Informa
tion regarding orders which had
been given to foreign war vessels
and even to merchant ships In the
Pacific lor their mobilisation on
Incredibly short notice. He point
ed out that modern warfare had
reduced the efficiency of coast de
fenses so that the were no lon
ger to he relied on. He told me
that In an attack on- this country
by a navy In tire Pacific defeat
was sure to come to our fleet un
less there waa an adequate naval
oil reserve In Hawaii.
Treaty Kilstcl.
"He said every responsible na
val officer In Washington had re
ceived confidential bulletins
which disclosed that the oil re
serves of a great naval power In
the Pacific were adequate for war.
He called my attention to the fact
that there still existed a well
known treaty between this great
Pacific nation and tha most
powerful nation of the world."
Mr. Doheny said that every one
who hnd been Informed of this
situation had been warned of Its
highly confidential and secret
character because of fear that the
arms conference, then In session
at Washington, might be wrecked
by revelation of plans for a naval
base In Hawaii.
War Kenm lteeionslhle,
Mr. Doheny further discloses,
the Tlnres says, that the famous
executive order of President llnr
dlng which gave to the Interior
department administrative powers
Involving the naval oil reserves,
was suggested not by Mr. Fall,
but by live then secretary of the
navy, Denbv, that the war fpars
of naval officers had been com
municated to Secretary Denhy
who brought up the matter of
lolnt control In a cabinet meet
ing. Mr. Doheny was forbidden br
counsel to discuss the 1100.000
losn he made to Secretary Fall
and the letter signed by Mr. Fall
In which the latter wrote that the
loan had been obtained from Ed
ward H. McLean, publisher of tbe
Washington Post.

Mclean po.e as the nder of the

If signed and made public before
the senate coirnittee would clear
the political atmosphere.
Mr. Fall, the newspaper assert,
signed the letter, but not mailing
It, he returned It to the man who
brought It to him. A few hour
later It was In the hands of See

In the interview Mr. Doheny
charged that tvlegrama had dis

after the files of the department
had been ransacked by person In
