very pleasing program of Rotations

sented the different numbers. Misses

Francis Thompson sang solos, and
pianos selections were given by
Misses Twila Stansfeld, Blanche
Bengtson and Corda Weller. Misses

"The taxes are not the only thing"
said Mr. Chandler, "the election laws OF

so that the Republican party can be

can be stolen after the votes are cast.

Brief Facts

(By GLENN CoNDoN)


Expenses of government arc
the biggest factors in raising or
lowering the rate of taxation.
The first five legislatures Of
Oklahoma appropriated S3S,l61,-
S2l.76 to cover the expense OF
state government for period OF
3 years. months and IA days.
The last regular session appro-
priatcd 30.246.34.
The expenses of the legislative
sessions alone have been quite an
item. The ten sessions held since
statehood cost the taxpayers a
total of sl,07l.353. The state as
whole would have been greatly
benefited had the various legis-
latures passed fewer laws and
adjourned long before they did.
AS II Is the ten sessions cost the
state on an average of 100000
session and Oklahoma is bur
dened with too many laws in
tended to keep one party in power
and too few laws to benefit all
the people.

Three Jitneurs Take Out
Licenses to Run Over
New Ruling.
OTHERS MAY FOLLOW
WHERE THEY LEAD
Other Operators Growing
Dissatisfied With Pres
ent Condition.

THE iitney operators show signs Of
giving IN to the ciyt commission
,rs. Indications yesterday were that
within another week jitneys would
again be in operation on the routes
abandoned last Thursday.
Three applications for licenses un-
der the new jitney ordinance were
made to the city auditor yesterday.
This is the ordinance so strenuously
objected to by the iitneurs. 1t limits
the number of passengers carried by
iitneys to two more than the regular
car capacity and fixes a license fee of
$15 a year.
Among those who applied for n IL
cense under the new ordinance was
Warren Boyd. who has operated jit
ney on Admiral boulevard for several
months. He paid for a license to the
first of the year. Applications also
were made by j. S. Abrams and Mar
tin Lass. Abrams proposes to operate
"A jitney on Admiral and Lass on North
Main and North Denver
No Licenscs Granted.
The applications were received at
the auditors office shortly before clos
ing time yesterday noon. There was
not sufficient time to grant the license
yesterday, but probably they will be
issued early Monday morning.
The secretary of the jitney union
said last night that 1t was still the
intention OF the union members to ask
an Injunction against city officials to
prevent them from enforcing the new
ordinance. Similar action has been
previously threatened by the jitney
operators. but nothing came of 1t.
Some of the operators are said to
be growing dissatisfied with the pres
cnt situation and are willing to resume
service If other iitneurs will join them
