secure recognition from congress in
the not far distant future.
Mr.. Daniel thoroughly investigat-
ed the Tulsa federal building propo-
sition while in Washington, and he
is OF the opinion that If a delegation
Of prominent men can be sent from

The first of this money will be avail
able for use June /. 1912.
Mr.. Daniel confirms the report

Tulsa delegation and Mr.. Daniel, had
decided to confine the location of the

in spite of the fact that the commit.
tee was greatly impressed with the
oIfer made by Tulsa, through its able
representatives.
