SEQUOYAH COUNTY ANTI
D|PPERS DYNAMITE ALL
VATS;: WH|TEHURST HAS
APPEALED FOR TROOPS

Oklahoma CITY, May Ex-Governor
J. b. A. Robertson was asked today
by John A. Whitehurst, president Of
the state board of agriculture, to de.
clare martial law in a district OF
Sequoyah county, and send state
troops there for the protection Of
state property.
Mr. Whitehurst declared the far.
mers in three townships in that coun.
ty are sin open defiance of the law"
relative to dipping cattle for tick
eradication. He returned this morning
from Sequoyah county, where ne has
been investigating the recent destruc.
ton of several dipping watts.
In proclamation issued last week,
Governor Robertson declared that Ger.
tain persons had "conspired together
unlawfully and wrongfully" to inter.
rupt and interfere with the state
board of agriculture in its work of
carrying out the provisions of the
tick eradication law. He offered a
reward OF $3.50 for the arrest and
conviction Of any person found guilty
of dynamiting dipping watts erected
by the state or federal officials.
The proclamation was issued as the
result of reports to the governor that
eight watts had been blown up in
eastern Oklahoma and that local Off.
cials were unable to cope with the
situation. The attorney general was
ordered to send Representatives to
assist in the prosecution Of anyone
arrested in connection with the de.
struction Of watts.
Unable to reach the governor by
telephone, as he is in the southeast
part of the state on state business,
Mr.. Whitehurst made his appeal for
troops in a letter. He asserted that
as a result OF threats all of the in
spectors charged with enforcement of
the tick law have resigned The de.
struction of the vat Sunday night in.
creased the number so far destroyed
to Is. he reported.
The trouble, Whitehurst said. is in
the northeastern part OF the county,
farmers in other sections assisting in
the work. He said as means of pro-
lection TO the cattle herds in other
parts of the county he had ordered a
cattle quarantine Of the district
There is only one way left to en-
force the law" said Mr. Whitehurst
today "The state must send a reas.
enable number of soldiers to the dis
trict-fifty should be enough.
With two soldiers on guard at each
vat during night and day, the dipping
should proceed rapidly and without
further trouble"

GOVERNOR HARD Nc IN
OPEN LETTER ASSERTS
ECONOMY Of SPEND|N \ c
FOR H.C.L.

Washington, May 25-Economy in
individual expenditures, reduction of
non-essentials, increased production and
improved transportation are needed to
reduce the cost of living and dcflate
credits. Governor Harding of the
federal reserve board declared today
in responding to a senate resolution
of inquiry.
The board is not prepared to say
what are essential and non.esseutial
loans, Governor Harding stated. This,
he said, is a problem for local bank
ers familiar with local needs.
Governor Harding's letter, presented
to the senate today by Vice President
Marshall, came in response to the
resolution of Senator Mccormick, re-
republican, Illinois, adopted recently,
requesting scme outline Of steps to-
ward contemplated Imitation of cur
rency. and credits, and consequent
high prices" and what measures
were proposed to mobilize credits for
movement of the 1920 crop.
Referring to the boards warning
to federal reserve members against
extending credits and its increase Of
discount rates, Governor Harding said
the board for months has recognized
that the expansion of bank credits,
4 was proceeding at rate
not warranted by the production and
consumption of goods"
The discount rate advances, Cover
nor Harding said, have checked credit
transactions somewhat, but have not
been entirely effective in bringing
about the reduction in loans desired
and which might normally have been
expected during the early months Of
the year.
"On the contrary" he said, com.
mercial loans have steadily increased.
Thus. it appears that the public has
anticipated demands for banking cred
its which are virtually made later on
in the year.
"The average reserves Of federal re
serve banks are now little over AZ
l.2 per cent" he added, "as against
As per cent at the beginning of the
year, and about 81 per cent y
months ago"
Governor Harding told Of the recent
conference here of the federal reserve
advisory council and its recommenda.
tions for curtailment of credits, to-
gether with the opinion that conges-
uon of transportation facilities is
tieing up great quantities of food
stuffs
1.-The board is convinced" Governor
Harding continued. that if the ursold
portions of last years crops can be
brought TO market before the new
crop natures, the liquidation of cred
its which are now tied up in carrying
the old crops will be sufficient to off
set to n considerable degree the cred
il demands . in moving the
crop Of 1920.
In the efforts to reduce non-essen-
tial loans, Governor Harding said
banks were cautioned against drastic
curtaiments and advised to seek
gradual liquidation and to grant loans
stimulating essential production"
