this economic necessity, it will not be possible for the producers of cotton to hold same until the market justifies the sale.
 Immediately after the holidays a campaign for membership will be in- stituted on the basis of the county or ganization formed at Ashdown Nov embers 30. At this meeting county of ficers were elected and directors in the various school districts appointed who will be the executive body of the organization. The dues for the first year will be three dollars per member, the most of which will be used in the organization of other counties, with the ultimate view of presenting a solid front in the cotton growing stat es of the South. After the first year the dues will be reduced to cover simply the ordinary running expenses of the association.
 "In this connection it may be said that of the dues collected this year one-fourth will remain in the county treasury for local expenses.

AN INCREASED SUPPLY
 OF OIL IS FOUND
White We'll at Ell Dorado Indicates Production of Over Twenty ......
 Five Barrels.

Fl Drado, Dec. 23-That the White Oil Corporation has an oil we'll near the Constantine No. l, about two miles from Ell Dorado, is generally admitted by oil men who have visited the we'll which came in three days ago. As the bailing process continued today, more and more oil was brought out of the hole, according to Homer Keeel, the driller. Estimates on the production of the we'll still varies from 25 to 250 barrels a day.
 When the bailing was resumed this morning the driller found more water and mud than oil However, mud soon diminished to small quantities and more than half of the bailer was filled wth oil each time it was brought to the surface.
 Operations at the we'll ceased at 5 o'clock this afternoon, to be resumed 1 tomorrow morning.

The principal object of the flight was to determine the feasibility of an aerial mail service between Mexico City, Pueblo and Vera Cruz, The flight was so successful that regular service probably will be established in February or March.
 It was neces sary for the airplane to reach height of approximately 1S,OO0 feet in crossing the mountain range in the western part of the state of Vera Cruz and the aviators said on arriv- ing here they had passed over the peak of Mount Oribaba.

it were possible to adopt all the state would have a constructive program that would mean much for it's material development For instance, the agri- cultural department will recommend strongly an act providing for geolo- gical and soil survey and the publi- cation of the unpublished reports of Dr. Branner when he was state geo. logist, as we'll as bringing down his reports to the present time, that the state may have the benefit of the most most thorough geological research. The development of oil and gas re- sources within the last few years will present another problem for consider ation of the lawmakers. Something must be done to encourage the devel- opment of this product for experts as- sure us Arkansas is underlaid with an indeterminate wealth that only awaits the drill of the prospector to make it available. One provision would be that the log of every we'll must be filed with the department as permanent record. An act was passed in 1917 re- quiring these logs to be filed with the county clerk, but there being no means to enforce it, no attention is being paid to it. It will also be recommended that some provision be made for the state to lease school lands and river beds, for gas and oil wells. At pre- sent there is no law under which this can be done. Should the state dew elop rich fields of oil and gas, this provision might possibly become a source of immense revenue for the state.
 The state is awaiting with much in- terest the inaugural address of Gov ernor McRae, in which he will out line his policies and program for the welfare of the state,

LEGISLATURE WILL MEET
 EARLY IN JANUARY
Legislature Will Meet January 10th For Session in Law Making.
 Much Business to Be Done. ........
(BY CLIO HARPER)


 Little Rock, Dec. 24.-(SpeciaD - The legislature will meet in regular session January 10. The prospects are still bright that this will be one of the warmest sessions held in many a year. There has been for several week an undercurrent of popular opin- ion gradually converging toward torrent that will break upon the heads of the lawmakers when they meet the second Monday in January. However, this does act mean that the reaction aries will necesst rilv be in the saddle, but 1t cannot be denied that there will be efforts for the enactment of legisia- tion radically affcting many conditions that now exist.
 At this time it appears that the out standing features will be efforts 10 repeal many of the special road laws passed by the sessions of 1919 and a movement for retrenchment in govern ment expen litury, which will be ex- ercised chiefly :n the abolition of ey isting commissions and offices. !: there is to b, anot5er outstanding fe. : ture of the session, 1t will probably ee the support of educational institute as and the adoption of measures which will strengthen the public school sys tenn of the srltr. As result of the re- cent legislative trip in the north, the agricultural schools will profit large ly in the newer and broader vision which has come to the law makers. There is not an institution of the state which will not seek increased reve- nues for its support. The University the State Normal, the agricultural schools and the elemosynary institu- tes will all ask for an increased mill age on the ground that present reve- nues are wholly inadequate and must be increased or the institutions be ser. iously crippled, if not forced to sus , pend entirely. By the time the legis lature meets, the people will have al ready initiated and filed petition fol an amendment to the constitution talk ing the limit off school taxation an( leaving the amount to be levied en tirely to the will of the voters in thu several districts. The legislature will be, therefore, relieved of this problem but there are others far more serious for consideration.
 Governor for Retrenchment.
 Governor McRae enters upon his ad. ministration thoroughly committed tc ' a policy of retrenchment and reform He will insist that the Highway Com. mission, the Corporation Commission the Penitentiary Commission and pro. bably other commissions be abolished as now constituted For most of these if not all he would substitute honorary commissions of state officials or pri- vate citizens who will agree to serve in such capacity. He will also insist that unnecessary offices and agencies of various kinds be eliminated as a matter of economy.
 Various departments of state will have their usual recommendations fo1 the betterment of public service and il
