OREGON { CALIFORNIA LAND
GRANT SALES ARE STOPPED

Washington, D. C.-By unanimous
decision rendered by Justice McKenna
the United States Supreme court Tues
day rejected the contention Of the gov
ernment and of cross-complaints and Of
intervenors in the Oregon & California
land grant suit; declined to decree for
feiture; held the actual settlers clause
to be an enforceable covenant" and
not condition subsequent and in
reversing the decree Of Judge Wolver-
ton enjoined the railroad company
against further violation Of the cove
nants. Going further, however, the
court says:
"In view of such disregard of the
covenants to gain illegal emolument,
and in view Of the governments in
terest in exact observance Of them, it
might seem that restriction upon the
future conduct of the railroad company
and its various agencies is an imper-
feet relief; but the government has
not asked for more.
"We think, therefore, that the rail-
road company should not only be en-
Joined from sales in violation of the
covenants, but enjoined from any dis
position of the lands whatever or Of
the timber thereon and from cutting
or authorizing the cutting or removal
of any of the timber thereon until con-
gress shall have reasonable opportun-
ity to provide by Legislation for their
disposition in accordance with such
policy as it may deem fitting under the
circumstances and at the same time Sc
cure to the defendants all the value
the granting acts conferred upon the
railroads.
''If congress does not make such
provision the defendants may apply to
the District Court within reasonable
time, not less than six months, from
the entry Of the decree herein, for 9
modification of 80 much Of the injunc-
tion herein ordered as enjoins any dis
position of the lands and timber until
congress shall act, and the court in its
discretion may modify the decree &C
cordingly."
This last and unexpected feature Of
the decision, again throwing the lane
grant case into congress. simply mean'
that the court did not feel the railroad
company should go unpunished for it,
deliberate and repeated violations O.
the granting act. While the cour
holds the railroad company is still en-
titled to receive $3.50 for each unsol'
acre of its grant, congress, having dis
played its concern over violations 0
| the granting act, is given opportunit
to say how unsold lands shall be dis
posed Of.
| There is no restraint on congress
other than it must guarantee the rail
road company $3.50 an acre for ever
acre sold hereafter. Congress ca
make appropriation to pay the railroa
this amount and assume full title t
and do with the lands as it pleases; !
can order the sale of the lands unde
any terms and conditions it deem
proper, or it can authorize the railroad
company to dispose Of them in an.
way it may prescribe, just SO long a
the railroad company gets its $3.50 al
acre. n

Urges Fleet Of 1000 AeropIanes

London.-H. G. Wells in an article
in the Daily Express argues that a
method for ending the war would be
for the allies to build and send tre-
mendous fleet of aeroplanes to the
rear Of the German lines and destroy
all the German ammunition factories.
He contends that it would be cheaper
to launch 1000 aeroplanes against Es-
sen than to risk one battleship.
