General West today filed an amended
answer and motion to dissolve the in
junction in the case of the Natural
Gas company of Kansas and other cor
porations and capitalists in Ohio,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia
against the state of Oklahop? and
It's officials as decided by Federal
Idge Campbell two months ago. The
answer sets up general denial; many
.of the grounds on which the temper
airy iniunc ion was granted, but ad-
mits there is a shortage in the gas
fields of X nsas as set up by petit
TONERS, due to piping gas to large
cities and q reckless waste West
AYERS that the purpose of the petit
TONERS would bring about similar con
di ions in Oklahoma and it was to pre-
vent this that the legislature enacted
p law prohibiting piping gas out OF
the state of Oklahoma.
