Washington, Juna 19. The
Doueny case in which the govern

pealed and government counsel
have given notice that they would
carry the Sinclair catie to the
highev courts in the event their
efforts at Cheyenne resulted in
failure.
Although the siluiUion presents
an apparent conflict of judicial
opinion, it is pointed out here that
some t)f the circumstances In the
two cases differ, and they will be
fought out on their individual
merits.
Ono Question, however, on
which a sharp division was pre
sented In the decisions of the
judges who heard the two rases
was that involving the president a
right to transfer the oil reserves
to tho interior department. In
the Doheny case this right was
denied while today at Cheyenne it
was upheld. This point Is (
pected to furnish a basis, Tor

The decUioji at the outset set
tor i, i the lit.o of tho suit and the
government'3 pleading? that the
executive ortter of President Hard
ing ot May 31. 1921, transferring
the naval Oil reserves from th:
navv to the interior department
was grunted in excess of executive
authority and that Harry F. Sin
clair, lessee, and Albert H. fall
lessor, couspired in negotiating
tho lease.
The government's allegations of
fraud and the charge that tn.
leasins of tho tig oil reserve was
illegal were set forth at length 'n
the decision tna Juuge Jvenneay
then plunged into his findings of
fact.
Power Pt'legnted
"We have no quarrel with theory
that the congress should have and
has the constitutional power to
regulate the manner In which the
property of the United States snail
he handled by the executive
branch," said the conclusion of the
decision, "but we do maintain in
the exercise of tbut power it may
direct appropriate legislation by
authority of congress of that de
partment to handle government
property In- an umestricted way
and in accordance with a vested
discretion."
"Therefore it is not only poa
sible but very probable in this
case, that the action taken by the
secretary of the navy, If the con
tracts are fairly and honestly car
ried out, will actually conserve oil
which would overwise have been
lost had not such action been tak
en. for. as to how far reaching
drainage may bo and how far oil
pools extend under ground, is at
present little known, even by geolo
gists themselves."
"In reacning a conclusion in this
case," says the conclusion, "we
fully realise the degree of unpop
ularity with which It will be re
ceived. This is true in the nature
of things, because the great gener
al public la reached only with the
sensational features surrounding
the transactions Involved and be
ing largely in the dark as to all
the other muititudo of circum
stances with whttfh the case is sur
rounded nnd knowing perhaps less
of the great legal principles which
the experience of the ages has
tn uk tit mankind must control In
dealing with the rights of persons
and property.
'The fact that this appears to be
a good contract for tho govern
ment as testified to by those wit
nesses who are qualified to spoak
of its character, coupled with tho
fact that the courts should be con
cerned in sustaining formal grants
upon which the rights and welfare
of many depend, impels the con
clusion that such contracts should
not be set aside for light or friv
olous reasons, unless fraud in con
nection with their execution Is
clearly shown."
United States District Attorney
Albert B. Walton of government
counsel declined to comment on
the decision. Appeal of the c.isc,
ho said, will depend upon the
course which Owen J. Roberts and
Atlee r'omercne, special counsel,
decide to take, but he Intimated
that the case would bo carried to
the nppellate cfturt.
Whether the decision will allow
continued development of the re
serve by tho Mammoth compnny,
