OIL LANDS VALUED
AT SI6,OOO,OOO Held
BY .COLORED GIRL
Especial to The Tribune)

L
New Orleans, La, March 17.-Six-
teen million dollars worth of oil land
is a lot Of property for most anyone
to acquire in lifetime Especially is
this true when the owner is a Negro
girl who few years ago was trotting
unconcernedly about the dusty roads
on the outskirts of New Orleans.
However, two courts, the district
court of ClaiLourne parish, Louisiana,
and the United States District Court
for the western district of Louisiana,
have declared Lille Taylor, Negro
girl of 29 years, be the owner of about
200 acres of the richest oil lands in
Claibourne parish on which twelve
producing wells have been sunk. The
property has been leased to the Gulf
Refining Company, which now oper-
ates the holdings, and is valued at
about $16,OOO,OOO.
Nevertheless there is a cloud on
the title of Lille Taylor. Several per-
sons including her natural mother,
Iona McGee, one George West, who
claims through another line Of title,
and also the State of Louisa now
seek recognition of their righ the
property The whole matter which has
been in the courts for several years
under consideration by the supreme
court of Louisiana. Decision is ex-
pected this month

ANOTHER WORLD WAR
IS PREDICTION OF AN
english CLERGYMAN
Special to The Tribune }

Especial to The Tribune.)
London, March 15.-"The world to-
day seems to be moving with no un-
certain steps toward the abyss Of
revolution.
Russia has deliberately modelled
herself on the French revolution and
has repeated on a vaster scale the
excesses of the past.
THE world is waiting with indie
scribable apprehension for the ap-
pearanee of a Russian Napoleon who
will complete the sinister parallel"
Dr. Hensley Hensen, bishop of Dur
ham, thus pictures a dark and threat
ening future for the world. Further,
he sees the world of today in a psy-
Geological mood of Indifference which
raises no barriers of public opinion
against the revolutionary idea or
against revolutionary excesses.
England now. as at the time of the
French revolution" says DR.. Hensen,
holds position Of detachment. Her
insular position still counts for some
thing, her long traditions of a self
government count for much more, the
wide diffusion Of Christian principles
among the people counts for most
But notwithstanding these advant-
ages, there is a revolutionary spirit
abroad which, unless II can be exer-
cised and restrained. will sweep us
into irretrievable disaster.
"In Ireland an orgy of murder has
been proceeding for some time with
out apparently provoking any genuine
horror, either in the Roman Catholic
Hierarchy or the religious people that
hierarchy controls. It is only when
treacherous murder at length pro-
voked the most deplorable reprisals
that we heard some half-hearted re-
marks.
"The deadness of the public con-
science in the race of extreme and
evident weakness is the most dis
quleting feature OF the times"
