What Natrona County's percentage of this
fund should be is a question for the people of
Wyoming, through their representatives in
the Legislature, to decide. Many propose a 10
per cent allotment to Natrona County, while
the more conservative place the amount on a
5 per cent minimum basis. One thing upon
which all agree is that the present 2 per cent
allotment Is entirely inadequate to take care
of existing conditions of extreme traffic orig
mating from oil operations in the Salt Creek
Teapot district.
Immediate relief Is imperative.
Operators face a terrific handicap In their
efforts to transport men and materials to the
producing areas from the railroad centers.
Remember, that these operators are all
working for you, the taxpayers and citizens of
Wyoming.
There is no selfish aim involved. 1t Is SIM
ply a question of granting Natrona County a
larger percentage of the oil royalty funds so
that she may apply these moneys to improv-
ing the industrial highway system, which, in
turn, means greater development, increased
royalty income and further prosperity for the
people of Wyoming.
Based on facts herein briefly outlined it
would seem that prompt action should be
taken to remedy the transportation problem in
Wyoming's greatest oil fields. The taxpayers
and voters OF our state canTeadily bring about
a speedy REIMBURSEMENT of the situation BY in
Structing the worthy men whom they have Sc
lected to represent them in the legislature to
grant Natrona County an increase from Gov
eminent oil royalties. Legislation which will
bring this about Is a constructive step in the
right direction, benefitting not only the Salt
creek road, but all the highways and schools
which will participate in a greater income
from this source.

The cold wave is coming in
from the Northwest, the bureau

Senator Curtis Says Congress
Must Add Appropriation to
Treasury Fund,

Ansaddition to the District OF
Columbia revenues of no less than
$7,396,914 may result from the
report of the Joint Congressional
Committee on Fiscal Relations
made to Congress yesterday
Various lawyers in Congr IS to-
day made the B discovery That IL
the Districts free surplus III the
Treasury Is to- be expended 81
all, it must be appropriated under
the 6O-40 basis.
Requires Appropriation.
This would mean that when the
$4.438,154 District surplus in the
Treasury Is appropriated, 1t must
be used as SO per cent of total
to which the Federal Government
will contribute 40 per cent under
the existing arrangement between
the local and Federal Governments.
This would mean that Congress
would appropriate $2,958,760 as the
Federal share of the total.
Senator Curtis of Kansas is in-
clined to the opinion that the Dis
lIACL surplus Cdu OIlly NC dppIO"
priated on 6O-40 basis, and he
will urge this view in the Senate.
Urge Half and Half Basis.
A number. of local lawyers hold
to the view that inasmuch as the
half-and-half plan was in operation
when the surplus was being accu-
mulated. that it should be applied
in making the calculation as to the
amount the Federal Government
should provide. This would mean
that the Treasury would have to
match the District surplus dollar
for dollar, bringing the total close
to $4,000 900.
Until Senator Phipps, chairman OF
the Joint Committee on Fiscal Rela-
lions, drafts legislation carrying out
the recommendations carried In his
report, the management of this phase
of the question win be a matter OF
doubt. Senator. Phipps declined to
express any opinion of the issue
today. 1t is apparent, however, that
unless existing law Is ignored or in
some manner evaded the District au-
thorities will be able to present a
forceful case in asking that. Congress
appropriate 81 per cent of the Dis.
trict's free surplus in arriving at the
total to which the District identified.
Will Await New Congress.
While it is expected that the legis-
lation will be introduced before the
present Congress ends, there is no
prospect Of it's passage until the
new Congress Is called together,
which will be in December unless a
special session is called. The Senate
undoubtedly will be favorable to
recognition of the District claims,
but the reception to be accorded the
claims by the House Is matter of
doubt.
Congressman Evans declined ito
sign the report, and the other two
House members, Congressman
Hardy and Wright, signed the re-
port only after certain reservations
We're included in it. Congressman
Ben johnson, Cramton, and others
are certain to put UP a bitter fight
against the acceptance of the report
in the House.

Lord Curzon, British foreign secre-
