 Just what effect this action of the brothcrhoods will have on rail organizations which already have boiled strike votes is a matter of conjecture. But it is deemed likely, that, inasmuch as the rail unions are endeayornig to present a solid front, they will take referendum on the same question. This conclu- sion presages a new referendum by the federated shopcrafts, mainten- ance of way employees, signalmen and stationary firemen. These workers voted last month, but the results have not yet been officially an nounced It has been generally be- lieved, however, that they voted against acceptance of the wage cut

metalurgy in Little Rock. asking for an immediate analysis of the rich looking formation.
 One of the drillers Of the Preston company, who has had extensive ex- perience in oil fields in Oklahoma, is of the opinion that the find is very similar to a light OF thin strata found in oil well drilling in that state, but not in anything like tho vast quantity encountered in the Greene county well. He said the substance he has in mind is known as heliuIn. used by the government in coating airplanes and dirigibles tO make them fire and weather proof. According 10 statements of local chemists. little is known in the sceintific world just what agen- cies are represented in helium, chem ists having thus far been unable to fathom it's composition satisfac- torily.
 MT. Black, the head driller, in q further discussion of the find, told a Press representative that the quan- tity of the substance. undoubt edly is unlimited. When the strata was encountered Saturday afternoon, soon was suspended to exam inc the composition. When drill ing was resumed he said, the for nation had risen a hundred feet in the hole above the point of the strike, clearly indicating that the substance could very easily be bail ed or pumped out of the hole in enormous volume.

 .The bill in effect provides for a mdidleman between the producer and the consumer in foreign countries, and is intended to enable the farm CTS of the United States to dispose of their products to foreign coun- tries. The country is confronted with a condition that makes it i'm possible for the farmers to dispose of their products at price that will pay the cost of production, while at the same time there are millions of people in foreign coun- tries who are starving for the very food products that we have in such large surplus in this country. The foreigner is not able to pay cash
 for these products. He is exceeding
 ly anxious to buy, but must have time in order to pay.
 Tt is believed that the corpora
 tion will be able to take security
 that will make the payment of these farm products absolutely certain. Agricultural interests in this country are going to be bankrupt be cause there is no market provided in foreign countries. The nations of Europe are in dire distress for these eay products, but there is at pres ent no instrumentality by which the sales of these products can be prop erly financed.
 "The committee believes that this bilr provides the necessary maehin- cry by which the sale of this sur plus in America to foreign purchas- CTS can be properly financed, and the situation both in America and Europe thereby be relieved.

The most intense or rigid heat test to which the brilliant compost ton was subjected was performed this morning by means of all ace tylene torch by ". J. Fricke at his machine shop on North Pruet street in the presence of Mayor Middleton and others who requested that the most powerful application of heat be made. MT Frickc, it is stated, applied the full strength of the acelylene torch to q quantity of the substance, the intensity of the flame registering seven thou sand degrees. Apparently that ter rife heat had no effect upon the matter other than burning away for eign substances, leaving the original former state. The state of the mat ter. it appears, is in nowise at- fected by the application of either intense heat or the most powerful acids only to the extent of eliminat- ing foreign matter from the main body.
 Members of the drilling crew of the Preston company again came to the city this morning, bringing additional samples of the graphite aluminum-mica looking substance and are forwarding them to the de- partment of mines in Washington and to various other chemists over the country.

 Greene county may be nestling above the richest treasure in the world Who knows? It's certain the drill has been penetrating the greatest volume of something that glitters" that has ever been known,
 
 present time. Just what the com position may be will soon be deter mined, if research of science is capable fo unfolding the mystery. The drillers are awaiting with eager ness. The public is becoming much enthused and are anxiously looking forward to the time when thor ough analysis may tell it what the eighty-flve-foot vein may be-tcll whether the community is upon ths verge of entering upon an era of prosperity that would require wide stretch of the imagination to csti- mate.
 The drillers have said that no matter how great or valuable tho present mystery strike" may be, they are confident of bringing in an oil well that will cause Greene county to measure up to the fame enjoyed by the wonder-oil-field of union county, in the south part of the state.
 Mr. Black told Press representa- tive this morning that people are Hooking to the site of the test well and are carrying away the glitter ing substance" in buckets, cans and bottles. He said he was glad for everybody to get q sample of it and the public may feel welcome to visit the company's property The slush pit. it is said, is now assuming the appearance of a vast mirror The sun is drying the surface of the pit, leaving the peculiar mineral from a thousand-foot depth in bril- liant reflection.

TO PUSH PLAN FOR
 T. S. CORPORATION

Washington, July 6.-In spite of criticism of the measure by Secre- tary of Commerce Hoover and other government officials Senator Norris Of Nebraska, chairman of the Sen ate Committee on Agriculture, in- tends to force consideration in the Senate of his bill creating a $10O,- 000,000 corporation to aid in the exportation of farm products.
 The bill, which was introduced only a month ago, but has reached the calendar of the Senate after hearings lasting for two weeks be- fore the Committee on Agriculture, gives extensive powers to the pro- posed corporation. Under it's terms the governmental corporation not only would aid in the financing of exports of farm products but would act as marketing agency. The corporation is authorized to purchase farm products in the United States and sell them abroad and to act as agent for ny person or organization dealing in agricultural products.
 The corporation would be managed by board consisting of the secre- tary of agriculture and two addi- tional persons appointed by the president. The capital stock total ing $100,000,000 would be sub scribed by the Treasury.
 Although Secretary Hoover de- clared that the government should stay out of private business activi- ties as proposed in the bill, Senator Norris insists that the measure will help to relieve the present situation both in the United States and in Europe. In this opinion Senator Norris is supported by Carl Vroo- man of Illinois, former assistant sec retary of agriculture and by Her bert Quick of Virginia. a former Board.
 As result of criticism by l.. F. Clark, chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission, of provision in the bill which authorizes the cor poration to negotiate with the com mission for reduced freight rates on it's shipments, the bill as reported to the Senate has been amended by in cluding an additional section which grants authority for reduced freight rates on export shipments of all az rieultural products whether handled by this governmental corporation or not. MT. Clark objected to granting reduced freight rates to products handled by this corporation as dis crimination against private business.
 Senator Norris in a report to the Senate advocating the bill, declares that the corporation will be able to obtain security from foreign nations which will make the payment for farm products certain.
 The corporation is empowered to purchase agricultural products in the United States and to sell them in on time. taking such securities Tor foreign countries, either for cash or deferred payments as in the judg- ment of the corporation shall be sufficient to secure the payment of the indebtedness at maturity, to- gether with interest thereon, said Senator Norris. "These securities are held by the corporation, and on the strength thereof the corporation is authorized to issue it's bonds and ]
