Rome, May 10 (?—A Pope of
the Roman Catholic church and a
-member of Britain’s Royal House
meet today for the first time in
more than a quarter of a century.
Pope Pius XII will receive pret-
ty Princess Margaret Rose in priv-
ate audience in his personal libr-
ary.
- Afterwards the Princess will
visit the Vatican museum's Sis-
tene chapel to see Michelangelo's
“last judgement”.
Some English Protestants had
asked King George to prevent her
audience with the Pope.

The last meeting between the
Pope and British royalty was 26
-years ago when the Princess’
grandparents King George V and
Queen Mary, were received by
Pope Pius XT, predecessor of the
present Pontiff.
 
Los Angeles, Aug. 28 (AP) —

A suit against E. L. Doheny and
the directors of the Pan-American
Petroleum Transport company by
etockholders of the latter corpor-
ation who allege that the share-
holders were the real losers in
the Elk Hills naval oil reserve
leasing scandal, was on file here
today.

The complaint, filed yesterday
in behalf of Frank H. Kunkel of
Cincinnati, and other sharehold-
ers, declares that the stockhold-
ers lost $10,000,000 as the result
of the cancellation of the fraud-
ulent lease. It asks that Doheny
and the board of directors be com-
pelled to render an accounting.

The $100,000 which was de-
livered to Albert B_ Fall, former
secretary of the interior, by E. L.
Doheny. jr., in the much discus-
sed “little black satchel,’’ was de-
clared in the suit to have been
the rightful property of the stock-
holders. An -aceounting of this
exchange, which the complaint
branded as a bribe, was demand-
ed,

The lease, which was negotiat-
ed in behalf of the government by
Fall, was cancelled by a decision
of the United States supreme
court after the Pan-American had
spent several million dollars to-
ward developing the Elk Hills,
Calif., oil reserve and on the
building of oil storage tanks at
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

Kunkel’s complaint sets forth
that neither he nor any of the
plaintiff stockholders had = any
hand in the leasing negotiations.
Some time ago, aceording to the
suit, demand was made upon the
board of directors of the company
for the accounting but nothing
was done about it.

The suit demands that Doheny
personally be compelled to reim-
burse the stockholders for the al-
leged losses.
