Dear CustOmers:-

Dear CustOmers:-
You are doubtless aware of the activity of the
banks in calling in their loans the automobile in

accustomed to extending thirty day credits, and
then letting them run from two to four months be-
fore collecting
Now with the present conditions and follow
ing the activity of the banks in this manner
asking everyone to either make their settlements
promptly when due or to pay cash at the time of the
purchase. This will enable to meet our oblga-
tons promptly, and carry on busnessn way
that will mutually benefit all of us.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, Feb. 3.-Three months
Of pickering and an almost unbreak-
able deadlock on the oil land leasing
bill have ended through agreement by
House and Senate conferees on the
legislation. Senator .Smoot Republi-
can Of Utah, chairman Of the Senate
managers, announced the conference
report would be submitted to the
House and an effort made to obtain
immediate consideration.
The agreement of the conferees is
expected to be approved with little op-
position by both the House and Sen
ate. thereby completing legislation
which has been pending for the last
ten years and which would open up for
development approximately $4,000, 600
acres Of public domain In western
states. Last session, similar bill was
passed but the lSenate's failure to
adopt the conference report in the jam
Of legislation at the close of the ses-
sion prevented final enactment.
AZ now proposed the bill affects oil,
coal, gas, phosphate, sodium, and oil
shale lands and is strictly leasing
measure, all provisions for. outright
sale having been eliminated. Under
the measure approximately A. 90. 600
acres Of government coal land alone
would be opened for development as
well a. about 100000 acres Of oil
lands.
As agreed on by the conferees the
bill specifies only minimum royalty,
the Senate provisions providing maxi
mum royalties having been eliminated.
In the matter Of contested claims on
oil, the conferees agreed upon 20 per
cent Of the royalty received on past
production going to the reclamation
fund, 20 per cent to the states In which
the oil was produced and 10 per cent
to the government.
Under another compromise all roy
alties derived from oil, gas. coal, phos-
phate and sodium produced in the fu-
ture will be distributed 52h per cent
to the reclamation fund, 37h per cent
to the state and 10 per cent to the gov
ernment. r
The compromised measure also pro-
vides that the total amount of the roy
alties to be paid shall be determined
by competitive bidding or by methods
to be prescribed by the secretary of
the interior. For oil lands q maxi
mum Of $500 acres may be leased at
minimum royalty Of 12h per cent.
The maximum for coal lands IL 1850
acres with q minimum royalty Of 8
cents per ton. The same acreage II
prescribed for phosphate and sodium,
but 5,120 acres Of oil shale lands can
be leased.
The Senate remedial provisions over
which deadlock developed and which
is designed to permit an adjustment
Of differences over claims growing out
Of the development Of the naval re-
serves in California and Wyoming
were in part retained. Under COM
promise proposed by Representative
Sinnot of Oregon, chairman of the
House managers, and accepted by the
conferees, however, sales Of surplus
oil lands by persons holding more than
1900 acres, the maximum allowed un-
der the bill, and made after last Oct.
/, would be invalidated. This modifi-
cation Is designed to prevent land
juggling.
