stagnant pools, never covered with
slime or cattails. Their being filled
with fish is one of the mysteries CT the

planned is that the spawn of the fish

results of the firing have proved that
sailormen are as good marksmen as

In February the battleships visited
the Barbados and the Canal Zone,
while the destroyer force visited ia
maica and the Canal Zone. Here the
crews of the warships were given
an opportunity to make trip through
the Canal and view its modern won

particularly fortunate, in that they
had an opportunity to so through
the Canal on board ship and return

the guests of the Panamanians during

the sailormen. making an unique and

sailors took part in observing Pana-

The Red River Border Question

Oklahoma City, Okla, Feb. Pc
tition for 4 writ Of injunction To pre-
vent interference with his admnis-
t,-ltion OF the Burk Divide oil prop

trict court here before Judge Robert
+. Williams, by A. p. Marsh, receiv-
er for the property appointed by the
district court of Tillman county, A.
NJ. Stuart, of Grandfield, attorney for
the oil company said today.
Granting of the injunction would
mean the elimination of Texas claim
oil property, it is understood. Federal
troops could be called If necessary
20 enforce tho order Of the court.
Texas rangers at present are hold
ing the property by force, according
to the report made to Governor Rob
ertson by Adjutant Geteral Charles
T.. Barrett, on his return from the
the Burk-Divide Company and Okla
homa deputy sheriffs We're withdrawn
from the vicinity of the disputed prop
crty, the adjutant general reported, as
n measure toward avoidance of blood
shed.
1T was my judgment that the part
les litlgant would lose no rights By
withdrawing the armed guards and
would be able to pursue their remedy
in the state and federal courts" the
adjutant general said in his report.
Under these circumstances, l find
no necessity for calling on any por-
ton of the national guard at this
time TO insure the preservation OF
peace in connection with this contro-
versy."
Judge Williams took u1der advise
ment in federal court here today the
petition of the Burk. Bet Oil Company,
another claimant Of property on the
disputed river boundary, asking for
a mandatory injunction to obtain for
it possession of property now held
by Texas rangers. Announcement
