There were other matters which the Government would have liked to introduce but could not, notably the U. S. Supreme Court's unanimous verdict in a civil suit, that Sinclair's lease was "shot through with corruption," and that Fall was "a faithless public officer." Lawyers Atlee Pomerene and Owen J.
