luton which will provide that the state
hood bill shall be taken from the con-

This activity on the part of those in

taken to indicate confidence that the

house provisions. In this connection. II
is understood that the house is willing
to accept the amendment offered in the
senate which permits Arizona and New
Mexico to vote separately on the ques
ton of statehood. Should either OF
these territories reject the proposition
the provision for one state opt of the
territories of Arizona and New Mexico
would fail, but the union and admis-
sion of Oklahoma and Indian Territory
would be secured.
