rights and that it was part of the
agreement that neither would dis
pose of any of bis interests with
out the consent of the other.
Trowbridge claims that Morgan,
In violation of this agreement, at
tempted to dispose of certain inter-
ests and that the title to a part OF
the leases has passed through the
hands of many others, whom Trow.

action, until at this time the Ken.
lucky Oil company is claiming title
to the interest that once was Nor
gan's.

land owned by w. G. Payne ant
eighty-four acres owned by Nors

SENATOR URGEs GOuERN-
MENT TO SEIZE the MINES
Action Should Be Taken In 80
Days If Strike is Not Set.
tied, Says Lenroot.

Washington, June s. Govern
ment seizure of the bituminous
mines as final step TO end the coal
strike was predicted today in the
Senate by Senator Lenroot, Reppb-
lican, of Wisconsin, a strong Ad-
ministration leader. Mr.. LenrUot
declared the Government should
take this unparalleled action within
thirty days IL operators and strik-
ing miners failed to reach peace
full settlement.
Conditions in the coal industry
in the United States must inevita-
bly, lead the public TO believe that
it is mo longer conducted from
motives of service, but motives. of
greed and profit" Senator Walsh,
Democrat, of Massachusetts, de
clared in the Senate today.
1.-The difficulty with the industry
is in its organization" Senator Walsh
said. 1.-Two serious consequences
have followed: Those operators
who have labor trouble are unable
to supply the demand and produc-
ton is curtailed and those operators
who have no labor trouble are TAX
ing advantage of the curtailment Of
production to outrageously increase
their prices"
The legislative machinery of
Congress was at the command of
Secretary of Commerce Hover to-
day for use. in preventing price ex-
tortion during the nation-w wide, coal
strike.
The action of Senator Borah, Re
publican, of Idaho, in placing the
Senate Labor Committee at the dis
posal of the Government to draft
anti-profiteering laws put the next
step squarely up to Secretary Hoov-
er. If the Government were help
less under strike conditions, Mr..
Borah declared, Congress would
soon put teeth" in a law to protect
the American consuming public.
The legislative programme which
Mr.. Borah asked Mr.. Hoover to sug-
gest, it was said, would be outlined
as soon as the Secretary returns TO
Washington from the West.

OF KENTUCKY
TO HAVE RADIO
BROADCASTING STATION

Lexington, Ky, June Ga large
radio broadcasting station will be
installed in the department OF
physics, University of Kentucky,
work beginning next week, it was
annouced this morning. The end
ing station was authorized at
meeting of the executive committee
and will be installed within two
months. The station will be used
for instruction purposes and gener-
al brOadcasting work, and courses
in wireless will be given to stu
dents.
The apparatus will compete in
size with the large sending stations
Of the East, and will have a radius
of 600 miles in favorable and I'M
favorable weather conditions. I'm
der most favorable circumstances
messages may be broadcasted as far
east as Washington and New York
and west to San Francisco. Under
any conditions it may be used for
broadcasting in all parts of Ken
lucky, parts of Tennessee, Ohio,
Indiana, and neighboring states in
the Mississippi valley. The depart
ment OF physics has already applied
for license to the department of
commerce at Washington.
Financial strain at the univers-
ity, caused by Governor E. p. Nor
rows veto of the appropriation bill
makes it impossible for the institu-
tion to finance the undertaking, al
though il will be able to maintain
the station. Professor w. S. Webb,
head of the department of physics
plans to raise funds from outside
sources, and assurance of support
has come from so many sources that
success of the attempt is said to be
certain, and plans for the installa-
tion have been begun.
The station is expected to
strengthen the relations of the uni
versity to high schools, as many OF
them now have receiving sets in
their physics and 'science depart
ments and hundreds of others are
expected to follow suit this year, az
the radio movement grows. The
university will recommend sets Of
such power that will enable stat,
institutions and schools to communi
cate and will arrange its program I,
keep in touch with educational in
stitutions, especially in this state.

FORD OFFER ON MUSCLE
SHOALS RECOMMENDED

Washington, June 3.-The House
Military Committee voted today to
report the Ford proposal to the
House and recommend its adoption.
! Recommendation however, will be
made by the committee in reporting
the Ford proposal that the Gorgas
Steam Power Plant. wnrcn is sought
by the Detroit manufacturer be
eliminated from the properties dis
posed of by the Government.
The action of the committee fol-
lowed discussion of differences in
the offer as made by Mr.. Ford and
the model proposal evolved by the
committee after inquiry into the
offer of the Detroit manufacturer
and others. Complete agreement
was reached by the committee men,
bers and representatives of Mr.. Ford
on the fertilizer provisions, which
had been in dispute.
The committee in deciding to re-
port the offer to the House complied
with the request of Mr.. Ford that
the House itself be permitted to
vote upon acceptance or rejection of
his offer.
What action Mr.. Ford might take
in the matter should the House
vote to accept the recommendation
OF the committee for elimination of
the Gorgas plant was problematical.
w. b. Mayo and J. W. Worthington,
representatives of MIR. Ford, had
been accused by the committee dur
ing the latter part of its discussions
and were waiting to learn the COM
mittee's decision when the doors
were opened.
There is nothing that l can say"
Mr.. Mayo said, referring to- the
elimination OF the Gorgas property.
He called attention, however, to the
letter Mr.. Ford submitted to the
committee Thursday saying the
plant was essential to his plan OF
operations at Muscle Shoals and
that his offer should be accepted Sin
whole and not in part"
! Both Mr.. Mayo and Mr.. Worth
ington emphasized the letter was
final"
The committee agreed to meet
again Monday morning to discuss
preparations of the reports that will
be submitted to the House with the
offer. The majority report, it was
said, would contend for the elimina-
tion of the Gorgas property, while a
minority opinion, probably signed
by nine Of the twenty-One members,
also would be submitted urging that
the Gorgas plant be included in ac-
cordance, with Mr.. -Ford's final OFFER.
The vote Of the committee to re-
port the offer with the Gorgas plant
eliminated and with the fertilizer
amendment as agreed to today was
understood to be IL to 8,
The other proposals for Muscle
Shoals development made by the

discharge from the service. In no
event, however, could the total ex-
coed $500 in the case of those who
had only domestic service and 1926
for those who had both domestic
and foreign service.
The adjusted service certificates,
payable at he end Of 20 years from
the date of issue, or sooner upon
death. would have face value OF
s.O15 times the total amount of the
adjusted service credit. Until Janu-
airy 1895, banks would be authori-
zsd to lend to the veterans an
amount equal to so per cent OF the
adjusted service credit plus inter-
est at the rate to Al per cent COM
pounded annually from the date OF
certificate After January 1, 1926,
the government would make loans
on the certificate in varying
amounts according to the times
negotiated.
One Plan Eliminated
Chairman McCumber said in his
report that the committee had rec
commended elimination of the re-
clamation provision of the House
bill for three reasons.
ANY reclamation scheme will be
exceedingly expensive and will
necessitate the expenditure of
millions of dollars; it will be many
years before a veteran will be able
to determine whether he could Sc
cure any rights under such plan and
where the projects will be located;
and, in making an application for
such aid the veteran would not
know anything relative to the loca-
ton, cost or advantage of the pro-
ject."

Bringing in of good producer in
sand at 2t30 feet in the Graham dis
trict and two good wells in the 2,S0O-.
foot sand in the Bayou area (Hewitt
southeast extenslon) marked the high
spots of development in southern Okla
homa during the past week. Opera
tions in the proven areas and on the
wildcats and important tests were prac.
tically at standstill due to the heavy
rains which made the roads almost i'm.
passable and access to field properties
very difficult A dragging campaign
over the big stretch of highways will
be required to get the roads back in
shape.
A dozen completions We're noted in
the Hewitt field. No news of impor-
tance was reported in the Fox area,
which has a number of wells cemented
on top of the sands. The recent an.
nouncement of the consummation of a
deal calling for the drilling Of a test in
the Criner hills, one and one-fourth
