gress by Representative william II.
Murray is enacted into law.
The measure proposes to divide the
present federal eastern district OF Ok
lahoma into two separate divisions
Tulsa and Muskogee probably will be
included In the northern district
The state at present has but two
federal districts, east and west. The
headquarters for the eastern district
are all at Muskogee, but under the
rev arrangement proposed by Con-
gresham Murray Tulsa would get
some of the offices.
Federal Judge Ralph f.. Campbell
and United States Marshal Enloe are
both from McAlester while United
States district attorney resides at
Atoka. All of these officials being
from the southeastern portion OF the
state they would, under this act be
assigned to the new southern district,
which would necessltate the appoint
ment of an entirely new set of officers
for the northern district
Would Divide Offices.
The court for the marshalls office
probably would be located at Tulsa.
