will necessarily be one OF official back

that a citizen incidentally damaged
has no recourse against the state in
such an affair,
1t Is understood there Will be a
hearing In district court Tuesday on
the amended pleadlngs. Attorney
General West has filed further de-
nurrers and the Guthrie attorneys
have also put In an amended bill.
Judge Huston's injunction against the
governor and others will probably be
appealed to the supreme court at
once.
