 COLD STORAGE BILL
REQUESTS FURTHER CONFER ENCE ON CERTAIN FEATURES

WASHINGTON, Feb, 23-The House refused today, 139 to 51, to accept the conference report on the cold storage bill, already approved by the Senate. Further conference was requested.

BILLION DOLLAR
 SUIT THREATENED
STANDARD OIL COMPANY TO
 BE DEPENDANT

Kansas City, Mo, Feb.22- Fran cis J. Heney of Los Angeles has beer retained by Unkle Sam oil company, which has it's principal office here. to bring suit against the Standard Oil Company of New Jersy for damages aggregating $1, GOO, 900, 000 H. H Tucker, president and general manag- CT of the Unkle Sam Company, made this announcement today. It also was learned that on March a special meeting of the board of directors of the company will be held to discus the ways and means of prosecuting the action, said to involve the largest claim for damages ever known in the courts of this or any other country.
 It is probable that the suit will be brought in the federal courts, and acc ording to President Tucker it may come up for decision before Judge Landis, who imposed the stupendous 1 $29, 100000 fine on the Standard Oil Company several years ago.
 The basis of the suit for damages is alleged to lie in controversities be- tween the Standar Oil and theUnkle Sam Oil Company that led to con siderable criminal and civil litigation some years ago in Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri The principal bone of the contention was over the owner ship of the lease of430,000 of oil pro- ducing lands form the Osage Nation in Oklahoma The Unkle San Com pany officials claim original title to the leases and chare that through cer- tain government influences, these leases were diverted to the Standard Oil Company six years ago.
 The lands in question, MT. Tucker saws have produced Hundreds of mill ions" in oil both gallons and dollars, all of which should have gone, it is contended, to enrich the stockholders of the Unkle Sam Company.
