Oklahoma City, Okla, April 23.-The
message of Governor j. b. A. Robert
son to be delivered Monday to the ex-
traordinary session OF the Oklahoma
legislature, will be very brief and con-
tain but four or five recommendation
for consideration by both branches, ac-
cording to an authentic statement made
in circles close to the executive office
here.
Contrary to reports that the extra
session would delve into all bills thai
had been passed by the eighth legisla-
ture, but which had died from lack Of
signature by either of the heads of the
two legislative branches, the state
ment made today limited measures TO
be considered to legislation in which
the welfare of the state is vitality con-
cerned. The two appropriation bNls.
departmental and institutional, soldier
relief, an extra appropriation for the
attorney generals department made
necessary through the states activity
in the Red River boundary case, and
deficiencies we're the measures out
lined today as those TO be included In
the governors recommendations.
With the announcement came express
sions of belief that the session would
be shorter than anticipated. Conserva.
tive followers of state house politics,
who, after calling Of the Legislature,
predicted that there was left the pos
sibllty that an extended session might
result from the words used in the pro-
clamation, today placed the length of
time to be consumed at from 10 days to
two weeks.
Governor Robertson himself stated
that his message would be ready for
delivery some time Monday, probably
at joint session in the morning.

A cabinet crisis appears imminent
here as result of the discomfort
aroused by the governments failure to
consult the Reichstag before asking
President Harding of the United States
to mediate between Germany and the
allies relative to reparations. The po.
sition of Or. Walter Simons. foreign
minister, is particularly imperiled.

London, April 23.-British govern
ment authorities awaited with keen in
terest today the announcement at Ber.
lin of Germany's policy relative to re.
parations. DR.. Walter Simons. German
foreign minister, was expected to voice
the last word of his government on
this subject which is considered as
the most vital question before the en-.
tente at the present moment and there
was evidence in this city Of an inclin-
alton to see Germany make an offer
reaching decision as TO what future
steps the allies would take in enforcing
their demands upon the Berlin cabi-
net.
Germany's appeal TO the United
states to act as arbitrator in the re-
parations problem and the American
rejection Of that role, brought into the
situation certain complexities which
seemed to place before the British and
frehch premiers, questions of consid-
cradle delicacy. The view that the
answer OF the Washington government
had intimated readiness to act as in
termediary in bringing about new me-
gotiations gained ground here yester-
day, and added considerably to the pre-
occupation felt in official circles over
the reparations settlement. II appeared
certain that Mr.. Lloyd George and NJ.
BRAND would be called on at their
meeting at Lympne tomorrow. either
to reject the good offices of the United
states. or reopen negotiations, but TO-
day there seemed 20 be IA feeling that
the announcement of Germany's poll
cies might clear the way for the prem
iers to reach decision without rejec-
ting any offers that might come from
the American capital.

WEST ARDMORE MAY HAVE PRE-
FIX OF MISS OR MISTRESS;
COMMISSIONERS MEET.

The necessity of citizens of Ardmore
appearing at the gas hearing, which
will be conducted in this city by the
Corporation Commission of Oklahoma,
was emphasized by members of the
board of city commissioners at the reg
ular weekly meeting, Friday night.
The date Of the hearing has been set
for April 2Sth, at 1000 a. M, in the
district court room at the county court
house. The hearing will be held on
complaint of the Ardmore Chamber of
Commerce against the Consumers Light
and Power Company, in which excess
sive and inequitable rates for natural
gas are alleged.
The commissioners state that unless
citizens appear at the meeting and en-
ter their various complaints, the cor
poration commissioner will return to
Oklahoma City and no adjustments will
result.
The commissioners removed the
charge which has heretofore existed
whenever the city engineer made a
grade for a sidewalk for citizens Of
Ardmore. The charge had been against
the owners of properties for which the
grade was made. The commissioners
were unanimous in their opinion that
the work should be done gratis. In
speaking of the matter, Mayor Dyer
stated that the city should encourage
the laying of good sidewalks. and should
aid the property owners in every man.
ner possible with the least cost to the
property owner. Commissioner Hen
don pointed out the fact that the cti-
zens are now paying the salary of the
city engineer and should not be re-
quired to pay additional for work which
will be Of great benefit to the progress
sive development Of the city.
The city attorney was instructed to
draw up an amendment to the ordi-
nance controlling city pound fees. II
is the intention Of the board To reduce
the fees, all the commissioners being of
the opinion that the present rates, IS
for horses and SO for cattle. are too
high. 1t was pointed ont that whenever
horses or cattle stray out OF bounds
they do so accidently and without the
knowledge or intention of the owners
Of the livestock. The new rates will
not be fixed until the meeting next
Friday night.
The appointment by Mayor Dyer of
Mrs. c. u. Ringer. of S02 Carter ave.
