CONGRESS MAY PASS ON
PRESIDENTS DISABILITY
Senator Curtis Will Sponsor Bill
Providing for Information.

Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas,
Republican whip Of the Senate. Will
introduce ut the opening Of Congress
a resolution to provih" means Tor
determining the disability" of the
President OF the United states.
While the Curtis resolution Will
have no direct reference to Presi-
dent Wilson and would not become
operative while he is in office. IL has
been prompted by the situation which
has arisen in the course of his term.
Senator Curtis will propose that
hereafter any member of the Senate
or House or any member OF the Cab
met may raise the question: of the In
ability of the President to junction.
When the question is raised, IL will
at once go to the Supreme Court
which will decide whether the Presi-
dent is able to perform his duties.
Adverse decision would bring about
the retirement OF the President. at
least for the time being. His duties
would devolve on the Vice President.
But IL the President IL restored to
health, he may be restored to his
duties by the same process he WAS
adjudged disabled. That is. any
member of Congress or OF the Cab
met might bring to the attention OF
Presidents restoration to health and
thereupon the court would make in
quiry and IL satisfied as to the Presi-
dents condition would order him to
resume his official functions.

is apparently good news for local

which there are many. Sites says

goes on to say that every bucketful
of muck comes up thoroughly inn
pregnated with oil and water A leak
has developed in the casing which
will stop operations for from fifteen
to twenty-five days, and this will be
remedied at once, as the driller is
of opinion a commercial well can be
brought in with few feet more Of
drilling. The desire is to have the
well in first-class condition as re-
CARDS casing before any chance is
taken of bringing in well only to
lose it. The driller bases his opinion
on experience in Oklahoma fields and
elsewhere, saying the gas pressure is
far stronger than he had seen In
other valuable wells. Sites is very
optimistic as to other good signs.
