TAFT FOR
GOOD ROAD
MOVEMENT
Former President Says He Be
lieves Oklahoma Should Vote
$50,000,000 for Hard
Surface Roads.

Oklahoma City, April 28.-"Al-
though | am not familiar with, the
specific provisions of your road bill,
believe the people of Oklahoma
should spend S5O0OO,OOO0O on hard
surface roads. believe they should
spend it now, and | believe they
should spend it on a state wide sys-
TEN, as your present bill provides" !"
William Howard Taft, ex-Presi-
dent Of the United States, made this
statement Sunday morning as he
passed through Oklahoma City. after
spending a week in Oklahoma study
ing conditions and making addresses
for the League Of Nations.
Il am glad Oklahoma is preparing
to meet the road problem in the
proper way" Mr. Taft continued.
Experience Of ether states has
shown that if the building of roads
is left to the different communities,
or counties, not only will progress
be much slower but never will the
state have complete and well or
ganized system. The state plan is
better one
mo, I do net think $5O00O 10000
is too much to put into this invest
ment at this time. I am in favor Of
large bond issues for such projects.
and it seems to me that Oklahoma
should not delay the beginning.
Your state is rich now. Your farm
ers have in prospect a wonderful
crop. You have great oil fields with
new derricks going up every day and
with new fields being opened up.
You have large wealth coming
now, your oil fields viii be less
large some day. and I hope YOU will
not wait to do this important work
until tis great source Of your
wealth is gone. If the State of Ok
lahoma does not provide now in the
days Of state wealth for a good road
system, l fear you will not build
them.
Il hesitate to take sides on any
local question" Mr. Taft concluded.
but I do hope that Oklahoma will
not put of at this critical time a
matter that means so much to the
future growth and prosperity Of your
state

SELL Hub
CLOTHING
COMPANY
Probably Biggest Mercantile
Deal in History of Chicka-
sha; A. j. Hallum is New
Owner.

What is probably the biggest mer
camille deal ever consummated in
the history of Chickasha was an
nounced this morning in the pur-
chase of the Hub Clothing company
by A. J. Hallum Of this city from
VIM Reinheimor, who for IA years
has been proprietor of the big es-
Enlistment
The deal was closed Saturday
night and this morning the doors are
closed for an invoice of the stock.
Mr. Hallum, the new owner stated
this morning that he was not in
position to state the date on which
the store will again be open for
business but intimates that it will
be in the next few days.
Mr. Hallum needs no introduction
to the people of southwest Oklaho-
ma For years he was associated
with the Eagle Mercantile company,
selling his interests in that firm
some months ago to Ben Morgan,
then a partner in the firm Of Nor
gan and Crib. Associated with Mr..
Hallum will be his son, Ralph Hal
lum.
MY plans are not yet complete"
said Mr. Hallum this morning. "The
store will retain the name Of the
Hub while the firm name will be,
in all probability, the Hallum Mer-
camille company. Just at this time
we are so busy taking stock that !
am not in position to give out any
future plans"
Just say to the people of Chick
asha and southwest Oklahoma for
me, that this country still lookes
good to me" said Mr. Reinheimer.
1T looks better than it has in any
of the IA years l have been in bus
mess here. I certainly want to thank
the people of this section of Okla
hamo for the support they have
given the Hub in the past
"As for my plans, l haven't any
right now. am going to take it,
easy for several months. On events
Of the future depend whether I will

Report Is That Salt Water
Breaks In on Williams; Many

That the Cement field may be ex-
tended several miles to the north

the announcement of location in
the NV of 1853. This is mile
west and mile and a half north
Of the village of Laverty and only
about seven miles west of Chicka-
sha.
J. W. Mitchell is handling the
proposition and has blocked consid-
cradle acreage in this section At
one time, in fact until recently ru-
NOR had it that this was the Mag
nolia operations, but it is stated on
good authority that the Magnolia has
nothing to do with this proposed
test. Mitchell has a man Oh the
ground and is building tool houses,
preparatory to starting operations
for at least $500 foot test. This
location is SO far removed from
production in the Cement pool as to
open another pool, should oil be
found.

ports from the well state that salt

tically put the skids under the prob
ability of bringing in an oil well in

ly good sized gasser that can be
saved, however. 1t is said to be
