FIGHT OR CO HOME
GREAT BRlTAIN'S MANDATE TO
HER CITIZENS IN u. $.
Attorney General Smith Of Great
Britain in America 10 Help Put Fin
ishing Touches on Agreement Before
II Goes 10 Congress.

One of the most interesting ques.
lions that has engaged the attention
Of Great Britain and the United States
since the latter country entered the
war is the reciprocal draft. Public at.
tention is once more focused on this
subject by the arrival in the United
States of Sir Frederick Edwin Smith,
ihe attorney general of Great Britain,
who is here to put the finishing touches
on the tentative agreement between the
two countries before it is submitted to
congress for approval.
Great Britain" said Sir Frederick.
has made arrangements with practical.
~ nj! of her allies, whereby British sub.
iects OF military age may be returned
gn thSIi own country, with the evcon.
uon Of those who have already ,,,,iun.
teered for military service. II is the
hope oil the British government Ia make
a similar arrangement with the United
States so that every Britisher and Ca
madam in the United States VINO is in
good physical condition and Of military
age may serve his country. The people
worth while in Great Britain are de.
termined TO see this war through to a
victorious conclusion, and there is no
reason why every Britisher and Ca
madam in the United States should not
do his part, provided he is able to do
So"
The proposed draft convention be
tween the United States aud Great
Hritain does not give England the power
to conscript her own subjects in this
country, but il permits the American
government to conscript British sub.
1ects of war age, that is from eighteen
10 forty-onc, provided they do not vol
unfairly enlist in the British or Ca
madam armies. AS soon as the draft
convention is ratified by congress and
apparently it has to be thus ratified
notice will be given 10 all British sub
jects tleat they will have sixty DAYS in
which t9 enlist in the British or ca.
madam armies, and If they fail to do
50 they viii Immediately become sub
iect TO draft into the American army.
II they desire to claim exemption. they
must appear before the British and ca.
madam recruiting mission or else take
their case to the British ambassador in
Washington. If the ambassador ex-
empts them, they will be exempted un-
der the proposed ;act from colmciption

WHY OKLAHOMA CITY zSH|YERED 1
AND HAD NO. NATURAL GAS

Oklahoma City, Jan. S.--The di0iel-
ties that the Oklahoma Natural Gas
company. had in building Its pipe line
to the, Morrison field, how manufac-
turers turned down their orders for pipe,
how after pipe was obtained the gov
ernment cofnmandeered it, and how
manifold obstacles and obsuuctiops
of the line, were described to the state
corporation commission yesterday by r,
II, Bartlett, vice-president and treas,
urer of the company. .., ......
|. Bartlett's testimony took most of the
time of the afternoon hearing of the
petitions brought by Charles II. Ruth,
attorney. and Charles Il. Selby, county
attorney, rs a result of the recent gas
shortage here. Beginning with the fall
of 1915. when he said the company first
realized that its facilities for supplying
Oklahoma City and nearby towns were
inadequate Bartlett traced the efforts
that We're made to obtain more gas.
Continuance Granted.
Following Mr. Bartletts testimony a
continuance in the case was taken um-
til January II, upon agreement Of at.
torneys, to give the gas companies time
to prepare testimony of a technical ma.
ture. Ruth yesterday filed an amend
ment to his petition by adding l200O
complainants, patrons of the Oklahoma
Gas n Electric company.
Bartlett testified that in the fan of
1918 there was about 100000 900 cubic
feet of gas in the Gushing field avail.
able daily for the pipe lines of the
oklahoma Natural Gas company. Now
he said the daily output of the Gushing
field is less than lO0,00O,000 cubic feet
"On December l5, 1915, the board of
directors Of our company ordered 80
mics OF 16-mch pipe. which we planned
to use doubling back the present line
from oklahoma City toward the Cush
ing field" Mr. Bartlett said. "In order
ing this pipe we reserved the option OF
taking the tonnage of the pipe in a
different size.
Crockett Breaks Deal.
"Early in 1915 the first gas was struck
in the Morrison field. Succeeding wells
made this field one of promise and we
entered into a deal with \. p. Crockett
of the Fortuna Oil n Gas company
which controlled most of the production
We believed the deal with Crockett vir
tually closed and abandoned the idea
