HIGHWAY PROPOSED FROM
RINGLING TO OKLA. CITY

Ringing, Okla, June IA state
highway from Oklahoma City to Red
River, through McClain, Garvin, Ste
phens and jefferson counties, travers-
ing the center of the wide territory be
tween the Rock Island and Santa Fe
railroads, may result from enthusiasm
now manifest over the voting of bonds
for good roads purposes.
In the southeastern township of
Stephens county of which the town of
Loco is the approximate geographical
center, it is proposed to vote about
$4,000 in bonds. Should this be done,
a part of the money will be used in
building a north-south highway across
the east side of the township to con
meet with the one now under con
struction in jefferson county which
will soon be completed to the Ste
phens county line.
81 believe" says Percy w. Newton,
cashier of the state bank of Loco,
that our people are ready to vote a
road bond issue. Loco needs better
roads throughout its trade territory
and connection with state highway
from Oklahoma City and other roads
into the oil district. We shall hold a
meeting soon and make plans for petit
tioning the commissioners to call an
election"
Garvin county already has modern
highway across the western side OF
that county, but that county also is
considering bonds to improve that and
other roads. A better roads move
ment is on also in McClain county. A
few township bond issues would build
a modern state highway to the bridge
Oklahoma City men are assisting in
building across the South Canadian
river near Newcastle.
A north south state highway
through this region would give people
of Oklahoma city and the northern
part of the state direct access to the
southern Oklahoma oil fields and the
people of north Texas the same ac-
cess.

the amount of royalty oil is equal to

selling privilege has been eliminated
Heretofore producers have been al

by holding it 80 or so days. but now
the sales are made daily at the posted
price. The company evidently has a
reason for promulgating the rule, but
what that reason is, is not known.
