The battle between Robert W. Stewart and John V. Rockefeller for control of the Standard OH company of Indiana, again came before the senate Thursday as Senator Norris, Republican, Nebraska, called upon Stewart to explain his share of profits from the extinct Continental Trading company.

A. Stewart was acquitted of the perjury charge. Norris also asked Mr. Stewart "in his next effusion to the press" to explain why the extinct Continental Trading company of Canada was organized and to comment on the language of the supreme court, which declared this company was "created for some illegal purpose." Recalling the senate's Inquiry into this transaction, Norris said that Stewart, Harry P. Sinclair and Henry M.

Blackmer and James O'Neil of the Prairie Gas and Oil company, had organized the company and that they had bought oil through It at $1.50 'a barrel and resold it to their companies at $1.75 a barrel.

"O'Neil," he continued, "kept his profits three years and in a fit of remorse returned them to his company. Blackmer kept his and fled to Europe.

Like a man without a country he cannot come back. Sinclair used a part of his money to give to Albert B. Fail, former secretary of Interior, and $260,000 of it he gave to the Republican national committee. "Stewart put his share In a safe In his office. He didn't tell the board of the Standard Oil company of Indiana about it until fiis years later, after he was driven into a corner by the senate's Investigation.

Then he called a meeting of the board and surrendered the bonds. But there never lias been any explanation of his failure to surrender the bonds earlier or of why he went into this Continental deal."

7. P) American Jazz has failed to conquer France completely. There are increasing signs that old-fashioned music can still make Itself heard above the noise. Youth still dances to Jazz tunes, but there has been a distinct revival of old favorites in hundreds of restaurants and concert halls. Thunderous thumping of drums in boiler symphonies by forward looking composers Just under the voting age still startle applause out of listeners, but the lilt of familiar airs is once more heard throughout the city.

"In reality." says a critic, "there is In twain American music too much of cleep melancholy, too much despairing tendcriiCES. too greet a throb of soul, for us. Our light music is infinitely more r.uperficial. It renders us the great serv-ico of preventing us from thinking. Under Its apparent frenzy jazz, on the contrary, full of the sobs of the saxophone, deeply stirs our subconscious selves.

The American can amuse himself while listening to it, but the Frenchman is troubled and ill at ease and his Joyous-ness is stilled." To test this theory some musical souls recently arranged with one of the best 1-nown cabarets, where a good many French go, to bar Jazz for the evening and play the old familiar European airs. i Columbia's STAR OF THE WEEK LEWIS AND HIS BAND Coats Boys' sheeplined coats with large fur collars; extra long.
