INDEPENDENTS AaE
ON SOLID GROUND.
Refinery and Pipe Line Projects VIII
Succeed IN Spite of Deelsion-Un-
Gle Sam Company Busy.

cherryvale, kas., July l3.-Now that
the supreme court has rendered the de-
cision IN which an Kansas is so greatly
Interested. the tension has been some
what relieved The why's and whra-
fores have been discussed al every cross
road and on every farm. Not only have
the newspapers Of Kansas c6anmented on
the ruling. but practically every paper
in the country has had its say on thN
subject
Here in the heart Of the oil country
producers are very much alive TO the sit
uation. While the loss OF Che state re-
nnery is deplored. s'AI q is a fact that
the ruling does not AFFECT other iegisla-
ton designed 20 help producers--such
for instance. as the anti-discrimination
law. common carrier bin. etc
The Independent rehaers, and pipeline
men win stand on solid ground just the
same. regardless OF the state refinery bill
As matter OF fact producers and con-
sumers are both sanguine Of the sue
cess Of the Uncle sam refinery and pipe
lineS and are assured that the company
win make good every proinise. Work Is
being pushed vigorously on the Kansas
City pipeline. and IN a few months re-
fnery No. 2 win loom up along the river
at Kansas City
The next move is the location Of a re-
hnery M the heart OF the territorial oil
fields. with pipeline 70 cherryvale con-
Meeting with the Kansas City line. This
indicates that the uncle sam company
Is planning on broad Ines. and every
stociholder morally certain that what
ever this company sets out 70 DO will be
accomplished.
The Uncle sam refinery ls now run
ming and wiz shortly be IN market with
the Uncle Sam Oh That these 0in be-
the most popular brands OF Oh ever sold
