Recommendations Presented.

In addition Ia the above and with par
tic5iisr reference TO the United states.
taking into account the system of min
ing law there already established by long
Years OF precedent and custom, the fol

presented:
(AD The apex law should be abolished.
OBJ Mining claims should he located
regardless OF discovery" and held
only so long as tho specified deyelopm ent
work Is performed in good faith.
tCD Placer locations should be limited
10 deposits OF loose material above solid
bedrock.
(D) 4 statute % limitations should
esta blish a reasonable term of years be
yond which placer patents shall be i'm
mune from attack on the ground OF mis-
representation in the patent application
(E) Special statutes should be enact
81 providing for the location and work
Ing Of oil, phosphates, rare earths. ha-
1oids and other mineral sutstances not
specifically mentioned in the present
laws.
(Fl Existing titles should he fully rec
oznise1 and confirmed and effort

 USELESS OFFICES
Henderson's Statement That He Could Save State ThOus-
 ands Causes Comment

Montgomery. May 17.- Specially Discussion in official circles today has been largely in reference to the inter view of Charles Henderson. president
 of the railroad commission, on the abolishment of useless state offices as means of cutting down tie annual expenditures. The publication of MT. tHenderson's interview had the effect of a bolt out of clear sky. and all talk at once reverted to that subject. According to MT. Henderson. he can
 save the state sSo0.000 annually. with
 out imparing the efficiency of the yari- ous state departments, by abolishing
 useless state offices, by cutting down appropriations, and by q reorganza- ton of the states government
 While a large share of approval was expressed regarding MT. Henderson's sentiments, there was some disappoint- ment that the president of the railroad Commission was not little more spe- cific in reference to his claims. Many
 believe that the state is supporting too heavy burden. and that some of
 the departments could be abolished. but
