GAMAEIEL HARDING
BECOMES THE CAR

Washington, June 15.-Government
employees who actively oppose the ad-
ministEation's government reorganiza-
ton plan will be dismissed, the pres-
ident .and his cabinet decided today.
The decision was said to have re-
suited from activities Of some en-
ployes in spreading propaganda
against the reorganization policy.
Specific orders are to be promul-
gated Immediately by department
ha;lds. 1t is understood that they
will be aimed particularly at bureau
chiefs who are said to have been
bringing influence to bear on con-
gress to prevent a readjustment Of
their particular bureaus.
The president and his advisers are
said to have agreed that much Of this
opposition was due to a fear that the
reorganization would result in abol'
ishng many high-salaried officers.
Mr. Harding is understood to have
been emphatic in his instructions that
anyone using his official position to
|, tighten his hold on his salary envel-
ope should be di2missed Immediately.
At the very same time, the pres
ident is said to have declared that
he did not wish this policy to inter
fere with free expression of indi-
! vidual opinion.

based by noting the large flush produc.

Independence, Kan, June D.
Another cut of 25 cents in Mid
Continent crude oil was announced
today by the Prairie Oil and Gas
Company, bringing the new price
down to 81 barrel, the lowest

The reduction today follows a
25-cent cut made last Monday.
Since Jan. "a Of this year, when
Mid.COntinent crude reached the
peak of $3.50, the price has stead

from the Mid-COntineDt field sold
as low as 80 cents barrel. but
at the end Of that year ii started
on an upward swing.
