HITCHCOCK BELIEVES THERE
rs OIL IN NEW MEXICO

/ The former postmaster general gave
the following opinion the other day
while In Santa Fe:
II am firmly convinced, basing my
conviction ON the report of experts
in whom l have full confidence, that
oil will be struck In paying CONNER
cial quantities In New Mexico and
that IL win be the greatest thing
for the development OF your state that
ever happened"
This statement was made today, not
by an oil stock salesman, but by
Frank II. Hitchcock, former postmas-
ter general. now extensively engaged
In mining In southern New Mexico and
affiliated with some Of the largest
oil operators now feeling out the New
Mexico field. Mr.. Hitchcock is con-
servative business man not given Ia
reckless statements and his prediction
as to New Mexico oil is perhaps one
OF the most encouraging utterances
yet made on the subject
Mr.. Hitchcock let II be plainly un.
derstood that II oil is found he is go
ing to be one OF the heaviest investors
in its development here. "And l am
not only hoping. but expecting that
you are going to have an oil field" he
said.

advocated by Senator Robinson,
Democrat of Arkansas today in the

''The time has come" he said.
when congress must protect the pub
lie against loss Of life and property
and widespread suffering which will
inevitably result If the railroads should
be tied up by general strike. The
right to strike has heretofore been
recognized in our laws. particularly in

be forbidden"
