RICO INDEPENDENCE PLAN

San Juas, Porto Rico, April 25.-
ress).-That congress is to take
greater interest in Porto Rico as a re-
suit of the visit of nineteen represen-
tatives who have just returned to the
states after spending a week here, is
the impression created here by the rep
resentatives themselves and by the
statement of Representative Towner,
of Iowa. chairman of the committee
on tnsular affairs in the house. that
committee for congress should visit
the island every two years.
The visit Just concluded was in no
way an official one, the representatives
having been invited here as the guest
Of the island by the insular Legislature
through Resident Commissioner Cor
dova Dvina. Their presence here was
taken advantage of by representatives
of all interests of the island to present
statements and two days were given
over 10 public hearings.
The representatives of the unionist
party, the ma ajority party of the island,
urged Porto Rico's independence ulti-
mately as the attainments of their
ideal but the visitors from Washington
We're not impressed with the idea that
separation from the United States rep
resented the real desire of the people
of the island.

FAKE OIL COMPANIES TO

INVESTORS ORGANIZATION

Dallas, Texas, May 1.-THE Texas
oil Investors Protective Association
has been organized to combat activi-
ties of irresponsible and fraudulent
stock selling oil companies. The as
sociation. composed of hundreds of in
vestors, will take action to force divi-
dends from fraudulent companies and
salvage from incompetents.
Association officers claim that many
companies have squandered funds of
stockholders. while many others are
failing 10 pay dividends when produc-
tion is ample to justify such payment.
Public interest was so great after
the discovery of new Texas oil fields
that nearly every one invested, associa-
tion officials say. Because of unre-
stricted stock selling. the situation has
become such that il is almost impossible
to dispose OF stock for the most meri-
torous development enterprises big
oil men say.
