there are very few good reasons for
believing that the administration

President Harding-is dead, SO far
as the present congress is con.
cerned
Prospect of congress being called
upon to hurry through legislation
giving the government the power to
cope with the twin rail and coal
strikes is the latest obstacle which
has bobbed up in the path of SUBJ
sidy enactment. If strike legislation
is to be put through, that with COM
pletion Of the tariff, will be about
all that could be expected from Cap
itol Hill before the December adj.

senatorial investigation of high gaso-
line prices.

This was Indicated today as re-.
ports TO the special committee tend
cd to show that "tacit agreement"
existing among so-called standard
producers IN regard to arbitrary
price setting. -
Though representatives OF large
oil concerns testified that the re.
ports were "manifestly unfair and
unwarranted," the attention of the
committee nevertheless was called
TO the fact that until q. few days ago
retail prices Of gasoline advanced
almost proportionately to an in.
creased domestic production. II was
pointed out that under ordinary eco
nomic conditions and under the law
of supply and demand retail prices
should have gone down while pro-
duction increased.
Then, on the eve of the opening
of the inquiry by the senate, gaso-
line dropped about two cents a gal

tion and consumption figures have re-
mained unchanged, 1t was explained
by government experts to the com

If further inquiry substantiates al
legations Of a price fixing combina-
tion in the mid-continent oil field,
entered into by five large companies,
the committee will press for drastic
legislation, aimed to control and
establish stable and uniform retail
gasoline prices, according to ind-
cations by Gilbert e. Roe, counsel for
the committee.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 1O.--General
strike of the powerful big four
transportation brotherhoods, involv-
ing over 100000 men, was threat
ened here today.
The brotherhoods, their officials
make plain, would not join the strik-
ing shopmen in a sympathetic walk
out but for the following reasons.
Threats made against the lives
of their members by guards on duty
at the railroad centers.
danger of loss of life due to
handling defective equipment, caused
by inability of the roads to employ
sufficient forces to maintain rolling
stock in good condition.
Following the sanctioned strike of
1000 members Of the big four broth
erhoods employed by the Elgin,
Joliet an dEastern railroad, orders
were issued by the brotherhood
chiefs to employees Of the yards OF
the Rock Island railroad to stay out
of the trouble zone at Joliet where
state militiamen are on duty. This
order virtually means that many en-
ployes of the Rock Island will stop
working. The situation on the llli-
nois Central railroad, one OF the
largest in the country, grew serious
today. Union leaders of employees
of the carrier notified brotherhood
chiefs here that they had been
served with the following ultimatum
by striking miners: stop carrying
non-union coal or take the conse-
quences"
Immediately upon receipt of the
message the brotherhood leaders got
in touch with their representatives
in Chicago Whether or not strike
will be authorized could not be
learned.
"Now that the walk-outs have
started it is very difficult to pre-
dict where they will end" D. B.
Robertson, head Of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men said today.

Passenger trains Nos. AT and AS,
from Oklahoma City to Vernon, Tex,
via Chickasha, Lawton, Snyder and
Frederick, have been discontinued
it was announced today at ne com.
pany's local offices.
The order to discontinue these two
trains went into effect this morning.
Although no reason is given in the
notice received at the local offices
of the company, the prevailing coal
shortage together with the shop
mems strike are said to be respon-
sibIe for the discontinuance of these
two trains.
Train No All was scheduled to
leave Oklahoma City at 9:45 o'clock
p. m. and to arrive here at 1880 p.
M. This train, it is said. cared for
as much, if not more, Chickasha

people who spent the day in the

especially convenient for their re-
turn trip.
Train No. Ais, east bound, was due

points. This train, it is said, did
not accommodate as much Chicka-

Another probability in connection
with the local baseball situation is
that the league will finish with four
clubs-Duncan, Clinton, Eel Reno and
Guthrie. 1t is known that the cof
fers of the Wilson club have been
low for some time and it is believed
by President Daniels that the Will
son club owners might be induced
to suspend operation during the re-
mainder of the season if the board
of directors vote to finish with four
clubs.

matter to the board of directors and

CHAMBER ENDORSES EXTRA LEVY

interests can be protected, than
to vote the extra mill levy said
Mr.. Bingham.
After thorough investiga-
tion, we find that the net ex-
pense of operating the city gov
ernment is not increased over
last year, but by reason of the
fact that the valuation is but
slightly over seven million dol
lars, this extra levy is absolutely
necessary to provide the money
for operating the city govern
ment. The directors of the Chick
asha Chamber of Commerce hope
that a large vote will be cast and
that the people will sanction the
extra levy.

new business era. The city must
go forward. To do so means that

piled with the necessary funds of
