RAIL CONTROL
Advocate Of Government Owner
ship Confident Of Victory
During 1921.
BY DAVID N. CHURCH,
p.ssr-stfouaI News Service.

Advocates OF Government contro
Of the railroads are supremely con
fident that 1921 will see the raj
systems out Of the hands OF the
private owners.
George p. Hampton. managing d.
rector of the Farmers National
Council and a leader OF Government
ownership forces, today declared
public opinion will force the rail-
roads back to Government control
because 'the increase in freight
rate necessitated by the Cummins-
Esch law has been crushing bur-
den upon farmers and also upon
small independent manufacturers
and merchants as well as upon the
: consuming public"
ADVOCATES OPTIMISTIC.
This optimism is displayed by gov
eminent ownership advocates in the
face OF the fact that President-elect
Harding has announced his opposition
to government ownership of the rail-
roads Before he became even a
candidate for the Presidency, SEN
ator Harding thought government.
ownership OF the railroads inevitable
and placed a wager with a Senatorial
colleague that the railroads would De
returned to Government control
within five years.
, Now as President elect Harding he
Is so positive that there will not be
Government ownership that he has
agreed to pay the wager, which stu
has four years to run. I'VE have not
made any poll of the members OF
either the House or the Senate on
legislation to restore the railroads to
unified government operation similar
to the control under the Railroad
Control Act but with a rental at least
5000, 900. 900 a year less than was paid
in war time" Hampton said today.
"Our conviction that such iegisla-
ton will be enacted is based, how
ever. upon the fact that the in
crease in freight rates necessitated
by the Cummins-Esch law has been a
crushing burden upon farmers and
also upon small Independent man
ufacturers and merchants as well as
upon the consuming public.
FARMERS HARDEST HIT.
Farmers have doubtless been hard
est hit by the Cummins-Esch law, BE-
cause they have to subtract from the
prices they receive for farm products
the freight they pay the roads 70!
carrying their farm products to mar
ket, which amounts to close to 5000.
100000 a year. In addition farmer
pay at least 40 per cent of the gen
cral freight rates roads receive.
The return of the railroads undel
the -Esch law is therefore,
costing farmers about 5000, 900, 900 !
year more than would have bee,
necessary had they been retained
under unified Government operation
This actual additional cost to the
farmers of the Cummins-Esch Law;
added to the slump in farm prices
which totals at least three or fou
billion dollars this year has pros
.trated agriculture.
Members of Congress from agricul
tural States are hearing from the!l
constituents, demanding the repeal o
this law and the restoration CT tn,

Railroads Coming Back.
Washington, July 10.-The railroads
of the United States are travelling at
high speed back to financial health
and happiness. Their progress is the
brightest light in the business sit
uation today and augurs for a general
revival of all industry in the days to
come-days that are on the nearer
side of mex year than most folks i'm
agine. On the basis of past perform
ances of recent months and the wage

MID-NORTHERN WILDSCHULTZ
BROUGHT IN FRIDAY

Winnett, July 9.-The Mid-North-
ern Wildschultz No. A, which was
brought in last Friday at a depth OF
11O5 feet, is turning out to be a splen-
did producer, as the gauge give it a
credit of better than 200 barrels a
day. The Wildschultz No. 4 is located
in the NWA of section 13-15-29, and
offsets the Frantz No. ) Clayton tract
well to the east.
The Mid-Northern Co., like most of
the other larger operators, is now
curtailing both development and pro
duction somewhat and probably will
not extend operations much until
some time this fall, although it is I'M
derstood that very little, if any. re-
production in the present working
force is contemplated.
Work on the Mid-Northern Green
No. 6, in the NEA of the NEA of
section ~15-15-29, is continuing and
the belief is general that good pro-
duction will be obtained in the Sec
ond or third sands.
Zinc City to Spud
The Zinc City Oil Co., whose hold
ings in sections 3 and 4-15-29 are be-
ing operated by Grant & Walker, are
now already to spud in, as final ar
engagements for securing fuel oil and
water have been completed. A num-
Der of biologists who have examined
this area for the Zinc City folks pre-
diet that oil will be found in either
the second or third sands before a
depth of 1000 feet is reached.
Republic May Seek Lower Sand
There are again rumors to the eff
feet that the Republic we'll on Brush
creek will become active within a
short time. in an endeavor to secure
oil from the lower sands. Just at
present there is almost no activity in
the Brush creek or Kootenai dome
sections. although it is expected that
work will pick up there this fall.
