PRIVATE ENTERPRISE.

Lane Opposes Withdrawal of Lands
Containing Deposits of Oil-Bear-
ing Shale.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Tn decid
ing today not to recommend to the
president the withdrawal from entry
of large areas of lands in Colorado and
Utah containing deposits of oi-bearinp
bituminous shalc, Secretary of the In.
terror Franklin X. Lane announced his
belief that private enterprise should be
unhampered in finding way for de
veloping these resources.
Although it is reported by the geo.
logical survey, which has been invcsti.
eating these shale deposits, that under
present methods the cost OF extracting
oil from them is greater than the pres.
ent cost of petroleum. Mr.. Lane believes
it possible that methods will be dis
covered for utilizing these deposits in
way that will result in the building
up of II great new oil industry
These oi.bcaring shalc lands, so far
located, are mainly in northwestern
Colorado and northeastern Utah.

CHANGES TO BE MADE.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 27.-Organizs
tion of permanent government for
the Panama canal zone TO supersedc the
isthmian canal commission on April
was authorized by President Wilson to-
day, with the announcement that the
nomination of Colonel George w. Goe-
thals to be governor of the Panama ca
nal would be sent to the senate within
a few days.
Colonel Goethals' s idea that the gov
eminent of the canal should be "one
man government was carried out in
the order.
Official notification of his selection
was cabled to Colonel Goethals at Pan
anna. Secretary Garrison said he was
confident there would be no question
about acceptance. The change in title
will mean loss of $4,000 year to the
head of the zone. as the governor 8 sal
ary will be $4,000 and he now receives
$4,000 as chairman of the commission

proposed to resolve the members Of the
commission with the exception of Col.
onel Goethais into new commission to

necessary legislation.
AS today's executive order not only
terminates the existence Of the canal
commission on April l, but also the
present organization of the working
force in the zone, many of the army Of
increased pay which they have been re-
ceiving under the commission form of
government. The order authorizes the
designation of number of such officers
Of the army as we'll as few naval Of
fcers for duty in the various depart
ments of the permanent canal govern
ment, but the act of congress provides
that they shall serve at their regular
army and navy salaries. II has been
assumed that some of the officers now
on the isthmus would be appointed to
new positions created by the order.
Reasons for the Plan.
President Wilson sent out his reasons
for adopting the plan of government
provided for by his order in the follow
ing memorandum:
In constituting and carrying out
the foregoing order, I direct that it
be done with the following consid-
erations in view:
1 have deemed it advisable, for
reasons Of efficiency. economy and
good administration, to have all the
activities connected with the Pan.
anna canal under the supervision of
one cabinet officer
The troops which will be sta
toned on the canal zone for the
protection of the Panama canal are
under the secretary of war; the
Panama canal act provides that in
time of war, an officer Of the army
shall upon the order of the presi-
dent have exclusive authority over
the operation of the Panama canal
and the government of the canal
zone; tho construction of tho canal
has been successfully carried on uu-
der the supervision Of the secretary
of war; the logical conclusion is,
therefore, that the supervision of
the operations of the Panama ca
nal under the permanent organiza-
tIon should be under the secretary
Of war.

| indorsed here tonight at the dinner given
by the Weber club to the members OF the
Salt Lake Rotary club.
These suggestions were broached in
formally by speakers at the dinner and
the acclaim with which they we're re-
ceived was followed by the unanimous
adoption OF q resolution pledglng the
hearty support and cooperation Of the
Weber and the Rotary clubs in further
ing the success OF tho proposals.
Fred J, KIesel OF Ogden. who has long
been power In the National Irrigation

make great effort to secure the next
meeting Of the congress for Ogden. Fur
ther. he declared that at the meeting Of
the congress he would ask that the per-
manent headquarters OF the congress be
esta blishcd In Ogden and that hence
forth this great gathering be convened
annually at Ogden instead OF meeting
at different cities each succeeding year.
Speaker Cheered.
Mr.. Kiesel's proposal was received with
cheers and the members of the Rotary
club magnanlmousIy declared that Salt
Lake would surrender it's claims for the
congress TO Ogden and appear with
representatives OF the Weber club before
the executive committee OF the Irriga-
ton congress to urge that the next ses-
sion of the congress be held In Ogden.
The suggestion that the people Of Utah
mako an effort to have a statue Of John
Browning Of Ogden placed In the Hall
OF Fame with the statues OF other great
Americans was made by Stephen H Love
OF Salt Lake.
Mr.. Browning's inventions have revo-
lutionized the arms Of the world. He
Is the inventor of the repeating rifle, the

and of hundreds OF improvements In va

Mr.. Love had been introduced ss "the

to MIR. Browning. He said that among
the statues Of the great men Of the na-
tion TO be found in the hall Of fame there
was none OF u man OF Utah. For this

Old Granny Fox Has a Bad
Dream.

| old Granny Fox was dreaming. Yes.
sir, she was dreaming. There she lay

looked the Green Meadows. and ii was
a fayorite mapping place for Granny
Fox. You see, jolly, round, bright Mr.

down right there so that it WAS very
comfortable place indeed. So when

| over there for a little short nap and
. sun bath.
This morning Granny was unusually
| tired She had been out all the night
| before. and then before she could reach
| home Bowser the Hound had md her
| tracks, and, of course, she cot in t 20
| home then because that would tell
BowSer right where she lived. she
had led Bowser far away across the
fields and through the woods. and then
after a while she played a smart trick
which mixed her tracks up so that
Bowser could longer follow them,
and while he was smiling and snutfng
as he tried to find out with his Won
/ derfui nose wne~e Granny Fox had
! gone to she trotted back through the
Green Forest to the sunny knoll. and
there she curled up to rest. And right
away she fell asleep.
| Now Granny Fox. like most of the
Other little people of the Green
Meadows and the Green Forest, sleeps
with her ears wide open. Her eyes
may be closed. but her ears are on
guard and at the least unusual sound
open fly her eyes and she is all ready
to run. If it wasn't for the way her
sharp ears keep guard she wouldn't

Nov Old Granny Fox had no sooner
closed her eyes than she began to

one. Yes, indeed, it was a very bad
