PIPE LINES ARE
COMMON CARRIERS
oredred to File Schedules of Rates
With Interstate Commerce Com
mission Before Sept. I.

Washington, June 13 = The inter
state commerce commission today held
the pipe line companies transporting
oil between the states are common car.
riers with the obligations of such and
orders thirteen of the largest oil pipe
lines to file schedules of the interstate
commerce act.
| The commission holds:
That the obligations OF a common
carrier are impressed upon a pipe line
engaged in the transportation of oil
in interstate commerce even though
such pipe line was built over its pri-
vately acquired right of way and trans
ports only its own oil.
That such traffic is not divested of
its interstate character by placing the
ownership of the pipe line in different
corporations in each state through
which the transportation passes, or by
transferring title to the oil to each
OF such corporations as the oil enters
the pipes OF that corporation.
That no state statue declaring pipe
lines to be common carries can be
effective, because if the federal act is
ineffective, a similar statue of an in
dividual state is of no avail.
That pipe line is not common
carrier, merely because it utilizes the
right of way of common carrier rail-
road.
The pipe lines against which the
commissions order is directed are:
Oklahoma Pipe Line company, Prai-
RE Oil and Gas company, Standard
Company Of Louisiana, Ohio Oil COM
pany, Standard Oil company of New
Jersey; Tidewater Pipe company, Ltd.
Producers and Refiners Oil company.
Ltd, U. S. Pipe Line company, Pure
Oil Pipe company, National Pipe Line
company, Uncle Sam Oil company and
Uncle Sam Oil company of Kansas.

Frank Long was universally known
and liked by the students. If a stu
dent went broke" Long was in the
habit Of taking him in and giving him
room free and work at the Rub
to earn his board until he got on his
feet again
/ Bishop Theodore Payne Thurston
of the Episcopal diocese for eastern
Oklahoma delivered the baocalaureate
sermon at the university. His address
was virile and won the large audi
ence from first to last Among other
things he declared that the churches
of Oklahoma were making a great
mistake in lavishing money in build
ing and maintaining UNCONVENTIONAL
universities over the state. He said
such universities should be maintained
only for preparation for the ministry
and the bulk of the money should be
spent in supporting denominational
homes and clubs for the university
students near the campus at Norman.
His argument was that this plan
would strengthen the university, unity
and upbuild the educational system of
the state and bring the proper religious
influences to the university where in
future years It would be most needed
and could do the greatest good.

GEM BILL MAKES BIG HIT.

Sergeant Mears and his tiny wife,
Naranka, are the hit of the season
at the Gem. They have an act that
Isl unique in It's conception and stag
ing and one that has taken wherever
1t has been.
The Sergeant is hugler par excel
lesne and has adapted his instru-
ments to many forms. He will take
an ordinary rifle, place a mouthpiece
in the muzzle and blow any call
asked. His canteen trick is good
one as are all of his acts.
No small part of the act, is the
violin playing of tiny Naranka'
Dressed in gypsy costume she looks
the gypsy to perfection. Her care

slight difficulty she has in getting
