MUSKOGEE SCRIBE IN BRAINSTORM,
FIGURES CHICKASHA AND ENID TO
BE UNDESIRABLE MEMBERS or w. A.

On the e.c OF the Western asso
citation meeting at Tulsa. billed fol
next Sunday. some Okmulgee scribe
has suddenly come 20 life with u,
idea that Chlekasha and Eaid ar,
not wanted In the Western asaocia
ten. that Chiekashn Wis not mem
ber of the Western association last
year and that teams lost money By
coming TO this city.
In a state paper today the Olmul-
see man who wields such wicked
typewriter, has. in part, the follow
Ing to say:
"Chickasha does not belong In the
Western association circuit. but was
retained in 1921 on account of the
large sum of money its citizens had
expended in 1920 to keep the game
going. Last year, the reaction set in
and baseball was dormant, the fans
refusing to support the club when
1t was winning the pennant Every
club lost money by going there.
Awakening is Sudden.
"The Chickasha moguls lolled along
Under the belief that they were in.
dispensible TO the circuit, and did
not wake up until they were drop.
red Now they propose to fight to
get back in. The representatives of
the club have been promised a hear
Ing next uSnday.
Frank Parke, secretary of the asso,
citation, is quoted as saying:
THE best thing that could happen
for Ghickasha and Enid too, would
be their retirement from the West
ern association and the formation
of a Western Oklahoma circuit.
Chickasha, Enid, El Reno, Lawton,
Shawnee, Ada Iloldenville aad Ard
more would make compact circuit
and there is sufficient rivalry be-
tween all the towns for every team
to be strong drawing card.
Railroads Would Suffer.
THE only one that would feel
the loss Of Enid and Chickasha from
the Western association would be
the railway companies, who would
get a far smaller proportion of the
earnings of the circuit. Their places
would be filled withing the territory
bounded by the six remaining cities.
"Rearranging Of the circuit is ex-
pected to be one of the most i'm
rcrtant matters to come before the
national association. This is the
principal cause of the dullness in
baseball matters. 1t is also expected
that there will be radical cuts in
the salary limits, changes in the
contract and that baseball will get
back to normal next season."
These wild statements are forcins;
local fans to ask just when Okmul-
gee or Ft. Smith became the capi-
tails of the Western association. AL

COUNTIES MATCH
FEDERAL AID To
span CANADIAN
Grady. Oklahoma. Mcclain and
kiowa Counties Complete Plans
For Post 100000 FOR Bridge
Near Newcastle.

Nothing apparently stands In the
way of the completion Of tho bridge
over the South Canadian river al
Newcastle. McClain county, according
TO Tom McElroy, chairma Of The
board Of county commissioners Of
Grady county who returned yester
day from Oklahoma City where ht
attended another conference regard
ing the movement to complete the
structure.
Money for the completion Of Tho
bridge is now available, Grady, Nc
Claim, Oklahoma and Kiowa coun.
ties having matched the 100000 fed
eral aid which has been available
for some time. The money was as
sembled at the conference of repre-
senttatives of the counties and the
state engineer in Oklahoma City yes
terday afternoon.
Sixty six thousand dollars Of the
money to match Tie federal aid has
been contributed by Oklahoma coun-
ty; $500 by Grady county and the
remainder by MdClain and Klowa
counties.
Work to Start Soon.
To start work on the bridge some
time within the next GO days is the
plan of the state engineer, Mr.. Nc
Elroy said this morning. Plans for
the work will be completed by the
engineer, he said. 1t is estimated
that the structure can be completed
at cost of approximately 100000
the amount available.
The contract for the construction
of the bridge was let four years
ago but the structure was never COM
pleted 1t is said that the company
awarded the contract hit the finan-
cial rocks and abandoned the job.
Mr. McElroy says the bridge car
now be completed at a much lower
price than was estimated two years
ago because of the big decline in
the price Of steel and other bridge
building materials, which, he de-
clares is now from 40 to so percent
cheaper than the market price at the
time the material for the Union
City bridge was contracted For this
reason, Mr.. McElroy explains the
Union City bridge will cost consid-
erably more than the ewcastle bridge
structure.
Just when the Newcastle job will
be completed has not been esti-
mated.
That the completion of the bridge
will mean much to tourists and will
materially increase overland traf-

IRELAND
WILL CONTROL
HER DESTINIES
Sim Fein Founder Declares
Liberty Won After Cen
turies of Struggle.

LONDON, Dec. 7.-"These proposals
establishing an Irish Free State do give
Ireland control of he rown destinies,"
Arthur Griffith, founder Of the Sim Fem
end one of the delegates who helped
draw up the proposals, declared today.
They (the British government have put
our future in our own hands.
1.-THE proposals will enable US to stand
on our own feet and to develop our own
civilization and national distinctiveness
I'm short, we have won liberty after a
struggle Of centuries"
1t was due to Grifiths untiring eff
forts and answering purpose that Sim
Fem was founded and developed into a
determined, insurgent, fighting force that
came to dominate Irish affairs and swept
aside the old school OF Irish National
lists which had talked for generations and
got no Irish settlement. Sim Fein acted.
After being organized in every section
Of the island Sim Fem, unable to get
its political bodies recognized after cleo
ton, took on a militarist program and
by guerilla warfare eliminated British
forces from most areas in Ireland, fore
ing an armistice which resulted IN peace
negotiations. It was Griffith who made

give full details of the revolt, but it is

WOULD ADVISE
IMMIGRANTS ON
AMERICAN LAW
Ellis Island Speaker Says
Limitation Ruling Is Not
Successful.

The need of Government officials at the
points of embarkation in Europe to in
struct the emigrants as to the require
ments of United States law, was stressed
by Miss Cecilia Rozavsky Of New York,
national secretary of the immigrant aid
department of the National Council OF
Jewish Women, who talked before the
local Jewish council at the Temple yes
terday on the immigrant problem and
her work at Ellis Island
Canada has government workers sta
toned in Europe" she said, who inform
the foreigner what the new country that
he is going into demands before he Will
be accepted into it's ranks, and 1t Is my
earnest hope that soon our country Will
be doing the same thing. Limitation OF
immigrants brings sad results, many
people come over who are not accepted
and most pathetic scenes result. A great
deal Of agony ad tragedy might be
averted by such an arrangement.
DESCRIBES RELIEF
WORK OF COUNCIL.
Miss Rozavsky told of how the council,
in conjunction with reconstruction work
was placing women at these embarkation
points to inform the immigrants. She
also said that councils have been formed
IN Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Geneva, Paris
and Antwerp. DR.. Robert Aley OF buC-
Ter College also gave a talk.
