Albert Fall gave oil drilling rights away in exchange for monetary gifts.

Albert Fall was the Secretary of the Interior under President Harding.

Albert Fall was in control of federal oil reserves in the US. He leased drilling rights to a company for the reserves in Wyoming. When the lease came under investigation by the Senate, it was discovered that Fall had received money in exchange for the monopoly drilling rights he granted the company. This was an abuse of power and led to the removal of Albert Fall. Harding was not implicated by the scandal but it left a mark on his presidency.
