STATUS OF POPE
Vatican Rights Will Be Estab-
Iished When Peace Comes.
Germans Claim Italians Inter
fere With Church Affairs.
SCHWEPPENDICK.

BY GUSTAV SCHWEPPENDICK
Berlin, Nov. ACCORDING to an ex-
ecutive statement given to me by the
foreign office, the status of the pope
will be fixed by the peace negotiations
after the war is ended
A high state officer told me Off
cially that the world status of the pom
tiff and his immunity from interfer-
ence by the worldly powers will be one
of the most important matters to be
settled when peace is concluded.
Count Hertling, the Bavarian prime
minister, has issued statement say
ing:
German diplomats have
had the greatest difficulty in COM
municating with the pope on account
of the war. These conditions must be
altered. The assurances given by
Italians were repudiated the first time
they were put to the test
Count Hertling cited the pope's cir
cuiar letter of November 1, 1914, in
which Pope Benedict says:
'All far and near who call them
selves children of the pope have the
right to demand valid assurances that
the common father, in the exercise
of his apostolic office, be free and ap-
pear to be free from the influence of
worldly potentates. Therefore, with
sincere longing for a peace to come as
soon as possible, we add our wish that
the head of the church should remain
no longer in this unnatural position, a
position detrimental to the peace of
nations in more than one respect"
Italy granted certain privileges to
the pope when the Italians took Rome.
Among others was the guarantee that
his communication with the digni-
taries of the church should be abso-
lute1y free.
German papers now charge that the
German bishops are unable to COM
municate with the vatican. Letters
to and from the pope fail to reach
their destination. German and Aus
TRAN diplomats were forced to leave
the vatican because their lives were
threatened by an unruly mob. This
in spite of the fact that Italy had
promised safety to all diplomatic
agents accredited to the vatican.
In an editorial on this subject the
Vossiche Zeitung says the independ-
ence of the pope cannot be left to the
matter which concerns the Catholics
of the whole world.
The paper continues:
1.-The Italian law guaranteeing the
independence of the pope is worth no
more than the scrap of paper it is
written on. The Catholics of the world
and the governments of all the states
have the right to demand that the
pOpe's independence be better safe
guarded than by single state which,
bandit like, has just now stabbed in
the back its ally of many years
standing"

archbishop of Cologne but failed.

SUE CREECH ESTATE
State Would Have Inheritance Tax of
Harrington Man.

Suits will be filed by the attorney
generals office against the estates of
the late J. w. Creech of Harrington,
Dickinson county, and Rev. Peter For
tier of Cloud county to collect under
provisions of the inheritance tax law
Collections totaling 1851 under pro-
visions of the old tax law are sought
by the state.
From the estate of ]. w. Creech of
Harrington, the state will seek a judg-
ment of $4,000. Creech died four
years ago. He was one of the most
wealthy men in Dickinson county and
was former member of the state leg
islature. The inheritance tax law of
1909 was repealed by the 1913 legis-
lature and no collection under the law
was made from the Creech estate The
suit which will be filed in the Diclin-
son county district court will seek to
collect $1,000.
A claim for $215 will also be filed
against the estate of the late Rev. Pc
ter Fortier of Concordia. The Cloud
county minister died during the time
the inheritance tax law was on the
statute books and the estate has failed
to make settlement under provisions
of the old law.

A Sure Way To
End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need, apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in

By morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will COM

every single sign and trace of it, no

have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better-Adv

Prospective New Pool.

The Gypsy Oil company has un.
loaded at its well in section 1928
"A set of } 5-l6-inch casing, which
will be used in drilling in the big
gas well. The gas will be braden-
headed between the 5-16-inch casing
and the 6 5-S-inch casing and drilling
will be begun about next Friday. This
is the most likely looking location in
the entire state and there will be
an intense interest manifested in
the result Of that drilling throughout
all the oil belt of Oklahoma. The
Gypsy well looks better than the
Wildcat Jim well, for this reason:
That the drill in the Wildcat Jim went
directly from the redbeds into a
sand producing a heavy grade of oil,
which indicates a field like the Santa
Fe field at Oil City, which will be
probably series of small wells. This
was not the condition in the Gypsy
location, but the redbeds were got
ten out of at a depth of between 500
and 900 feet and the drill went into
a fine blue shale and went out Of
the blue shale into the sand The most
conservative oil men are of the opin-
ion that a great field of oil will be
developed in the Fox district.

HoMA CITY Is HELPING MANY
UNFORTUNATES.

1ohn Casteel, county Judge of Mur
ray county, was in the city from his
home at Sulphur yesterday and while
in conversation about the Harrison
drug act which has deprived so many
of the addicted ones of their daily
potion and caused intense suffering
in many cases, stated that there was
one institution in Oklahoma City that
was deserving Of great praise, and
he thought the press of the state
should be very generous with him
for the reason that he is taking many
of the unfortunates and where they
are unable to pay is giving them
treatment and putting their back on
their feet once more. He referred
to the McKenna Institute for the
treatment of drug hends, in Oklahoma
City.
Judge Casteel stated that he knew
of several cases that had come under
his personal observation where DR..
McKenna had hunted out the vic
tim and administered the treatment
free, even paying the board of the
patient, in order to give him a new
chance in the world. Some OF the
grateful ones will pay afterwards, but
a lot of them will not They will
either soon forget # or be unable to
ayp, and for this reason Judge Cas-
teel states that the press Of the state
should assist the McKenna institute
