TOWNLEY HAD SISAL
 BUSINESS FOR NEST
 EGG SAYS SECRETARY

BISMARCK, N. D., July 9. = The bankruptcy case of A. c. Townley came up here today on request of E. B. McCutcheon, trustee for the creditors.
 J. w. Brinton. Townley's former private secretary, testified that Townley did not reveal all his assets at the previous bankruptcy hearing in 1918.
 He told of Townley's alleged con- nection with the United States sisal trust in Florida. Townley. he said, had told him that he wanted the Flor ida enterprise as a nest egg.
 Brinton said Townley told him that he used funds of the Non-Partisan Publishing company, and that he in- vested from ten to twelve thousand dollars in the Florida sisal business Brinton testified Townley owned 160 acres of land in Florida at the time of his bankruptcy. but did not reveal l it.
 | Later the company was enlarged, Brinton said, and more than 22,000 acres of Florida land purchased. Ac- cording to Brinton, Townley's drafts on the Nom Partisan Publishing com pany were originally shown on the company's books, but NJ. w.

WITHDRAWING SHIPS. FROM MEXICO CLEARS EMBARRASSING POINT
Republican A. p. Leased wIre1

? MEXICO CITY, July 9.-The with drawal of the United States cruisers Sacramento and Cleveland from Tam pico has relieved a situation which officials here declare might have proved embarrassing any moment.
 But there is no apparent i tima- tion that the Mexican government intends to recede from the position it has taken on the recent increase in the export tax on oil. which prompted the oil properties to shut down. The tax became effective July l, and the government expects 1t to be paid when it becomes due, which will be August 25.
 There also is the question of the indemnities which it is understood the government wishes to secure for discharged employees of the oil prop critics. Mexican law makes provision for the payment of three months salary for peremptory discharge. Thus far this phase of the situation has not been taken up psthrough diplo- matic channels.
 Various government officials open 1y accuse the oil men of intriguing against Mexico and attempting to embroil 1t in war with the United States. General Gales. chief of the cabinet is particularly outspoken.
 The infamous machinations of the oil men have failed in. their purpose to alienate the workmen from the government" says the general. The department of industry and commerce issued a statement today by its chief petroleum inspector 1T Tampico, to the effect that two hun dred thousand tons of oil were ex- ported during the first seven days o
 July. representing no material de crease in such exportatioEs. The statement added that many request. were being received for permits tt dr-ll new wells and that not nor, than two thousand men now wer,
 out of work as a result of the shut down in the Tampico region Othe sources of information have estimate,
 the unemployed to number from ter to thirty thousand men.

 The two associations also adopted a resolution opposing regulation or intrastate railroad rates by the inter state commerce commission The resolution asked congress to amend the transportation act of 1920 to pre- vent the interstate commission from infringing on what the resolution termed state rights"
 Another resolution adopted by the two bodies asked a 25 per cent reduc- ton on the valuation of grazing lands assessed for taxation purposes A reduction of 50 per cent in the as- sessed valuation of livestock was recommended.
 The associations also adopted a resolution declaring that the state loan board should replace at the earl fest possible moment s692,923.60 which had been received as interest on de- ferred payments on state land sales and had been improperly segregateu and loaned along with money received as payments on principle. according to the resolution.

 FARGO, N. D., July 9.-Harmony in mittee of the Non-Partisan League of three days of conferences over the situation arising from charges by the editor of the league paper here, the Courier News, that the leagues fifty thousand dollar defense fund had been misapplied.
 Hopes of league leaders that a compromise might be reached within the committee and that the charges of criminal libel filed against C. K. Gummerson, the deposed editor, and George A Totten. Jr-, his business manager, who was also busted. might be dropped, apparently were slim to- night. Ole Kaldor. treasurer of the recall campaign fund and majority member of the committee, announced that he and his associates. Chairman A. A. Liederbach and Chris Leyang, had taken an uncompromising stand
 We will yield nothing" MT. Kaldor said. we have a criminal case and the charges will stand"
 The faction opposed to Chairman Liederbach and his majority associ- ates are understood to be seeking the support of the attorney general and Governor Frazier in their efforts to have the libel charges withdrawn and the matter dropped.
 Gummerson today claimed that he had the support of some league members in Bismarck and that they were starting drive to raise fund for his and Totten's defense.
