Favorable Outlook
fer Water Works

The town council was in ses-
sion last Friday night and the
chief matter that claimed its at
tention was that Of the much
needed water works and sewer
system for the town. Just at
present the town is not able to
install a good system by itself,
and it is proposed that CO.. pora-
ton capitalized at @15,0 600 be
formed here to construct the sys-
tenn. Under this plan the corpo-
ration's stock would be sold to
the town and to citizens. firms
and corporations Of the county.
1t is estimated that the system
will cost $4,000, the amotnt at
which the proposed water works
corporation is to be capitalized.
The town as a body is TO take
about $500 worth Of stock in ths
corporation, it is planned, bond
ing itself to obtain this sum. 1t
IS believed that the rest of the
stock can be readily sold to cor
porations. firms and citizens
here. The High School Board.
It is thought. will subscribe for
$1,000 worth Of shares. II will
be very necessary for the high
school to have water works, and
rather than go to the extra eX-
ira expense Of installing a sepa-
rate system it is believed that
the Board will take fair amount
of stock in the proposed corpora.
tion.
The plan is meeting with pop
ular approval. Judging from the
sentiment toward the proposition
thus lar expressed, there will be
little difficulty in disposing OF
the other shares, since quite a
few have voluntarily offered to
subscribe for stock running in
value from 500 to $500

council. which is behind the plan,

PAVING RIVER BRIDGE
APPROACHES IMPEDED
Legal Difficulties Are Discov-
cred; Agreement" Was
Not Put on Record.

Because an agreement between a
guardian OF tract of land at the east
approach of the Arkansas river bridge
and city officials was not made mat
ter of record. difficulty has been
presented to the legal department OF
the city in preparing legal matters in
such a manner that paving on the ap-
proach to the bridge can proceed.
Already the city officials have signi-
fled their intentions of paving the ap-
proach. which runs alongside the
Tulsa Cold Storage plant but when 1t
was found that actual paving could
not be inaugurated until title had
been secured, the hitch was discov-
cred.
John Woodard, assistant city attor-
ney; Mayor j. III. Simmons and MEM
Fbe.s of the board Of county commits
sioners are now making an effort to
get the matter adjusted that the paw
ing can proceed as was originally in
tended, and thus complete a link of
paving which has already worked a
great hardship on the city and traffic
forced to use this approach in enter
ing or passing from West Tulsa over
the new bridge.

turning from Washington today At

ference with his assistants, at which
II was practically decided to ask for
a continuance of the investigation of
cotton gins and oil mills. scheduled
by the corporation commission to be-
gin Tuesday Of next week. 1T will
be impossible for US to prepare for
the hearing by the time" Attorney
General Freeing said today The
probe contemplates a proceeding the
extent of which cannot be foretold
new. 1t would probably require go
ing into every county Of the state to
secure information necessary to make
the investigation complete.
It has been suggested by Governor
Williams that some one in each
county to be designated could get de-
positions without expense to the state.
This plan NAV be followed, tho 1t has
not been definitely decided upon as
yet.
Attorney-General Freezing, how
ever, Is of the opinion that it will be
impossible to start the probe next
Tuesday, and therefore he says he
VIII ask for a continuance.
Officers of the Cotton Seed Crush
ers association declare there is no

ton seed, as complained, and that
there is no foundation for sucn
charges. It Is claimed they will be

homa- cotton seed compare favorably
with those of Texas and other cotton
producing states 1t was alleged that
other states paid more for the seed
than oklahoma mills. One officei
of the Cottonseed Crushers associa-
ton declared that the very fact that
different prices were being paid for
seed in the state showed there was no
combination to control the price. 1--WE

NORRIS CALLS MEETING OF
RAILWAY SUPERlNTENDENTS
Fuel Administrator Expects To Work
Out Plans for Bcttcring Car
Service.

Special TO The World.
ADA. okla, Nov. 22.-P. A. Nor
ris. fuel administrator for the state,
has called a meeting of the superin-
tendents of car service of all railroads
in the state to meet in Oklahoma city
on the afternoon of November 27. IT
Ia expected that the Representatives Of
the railroads, together with Mr.. Norris
and his executive secretary, j. w.
Hinton, will work out plans whereby
the shortage IN cars now so badly felt
will be partially relieved. Not only is
1t impossible to furnish Oklahoma's s
portion OF the national need Of coal,
but il is impossible TO keep parts Of
Oklahoma frsm shivering when the
cold is bitter. This condition is a di-
rect result of the lack Of shipping ia
clities.
That the people of the state are be-
ginning the use of wood and gas in
stead of coal. Mr.. Morris says, is evi-
dent from the reports from the coun-
ty chairmen. This is especially true In
the eastern part OF the state, where
there is much wood Many farmers
are offering to give the wood free
If the consumer Will have it cut and
hauled. The farmers want the land
cleared.
There are two objects In getting
wood consumption increased, Mr.. Nor
ris says. One Is the conservation Of
coal. Another is the clearing of land.
which means that more rich land IN
tho eastern part of the state viii be
put in food and feed crops next spring.
1--WE have thousands Of acres of
rich bottom land" he continued, ain
dozens of counties In Oklahoma. II
these were cleared and put into food
and feedstuff another year, the sup
