Fight Wild Animals.

kinssyille. Tex, March 60. l..
Coleman, assistant predatory ANNA
inspector for Texas, with headquar.
tiers at San Angelo, is in Kleberg
county for the purpose of inaugurat-
ing a campaign for the poisoning of
coyotes in this and adjoining coun-
ties. The work will be carried on un-
der directions Of the government.
He met with a number of represen.
tative farmers and the county demon
strator in the commercial club rooms
in Kingsville Saturday afternoon and
outlined the plan Of the poison cam

will not reach a vote at this meet
ing. 1t may be discussed and then
passed on to the next conference, with
a three-year truce in the interval.
The subject of league of American
republics, suggested by Uruguay, will
probably not be brought up unless
some of the other delegations urge in
joining it:
1t is expected that a definite move
ment will be launched early in the
conference for the establishment Of an
American court of justice located, pos
sibly, in the city of Panama.
The United States delegates will
keep their hands off any political
questions coming before the conference
in accordance with the instructions
which, it is believed, they received
from the State Department in Wash

Priest Will Halt Gunmen'S Feud

st. Louis, March 20. - A mild.
hammered priest here has undertaken
as one of his parish duties the break
ing up OF desperate revolver war
between two rival groups of gangstcrs
which already has cost more than 80
lives.
The priest is the Rev. Timothy
Dempsey. pastor of st. Patrick s
Church. The two gangs are the Rats
and the "Jelly-Rolls." Father Demp-
sey once led them BY peaceable per-
suasion TO sign an armistice and now,
he'll do it again.
The original dispute started over a
political argument and was given i'm
petus by an alteration between a
RAT" and a "Jelly-Roll" as to how
many aces should be found in a deck
of cards.
Later bank robberies, train hold
ups and safe blowings. in which profits
were unfairly divided, heightened the
luminosity.
A climax was reached two years
ago when William 7. Esan, RAT"
leader was shot and killed.
Then the pendulum swung back and
forth until the gang annals of st.
Louis were nothing more than
double entry ledger kept by death with
the blood Of the Jelly Rolls" on one
side and the RATS" on the other.
Priest Calls Truce.
Then Father Dempsey arranged for
q meeting between the gangsters.
He was highly respected by all
classes. Even the gunner admired
him.
The priest pledged the gunner to
lay aside their "gats" and forget the
feud. They agreed. They kept their
promise until Abe Goldfeder. Jelly
Roll" adherent, was shot and
wounded.
Then came reprisals and the fcud
was on again. even more bitter than
before. The latest outrage was the
murder in broad daylight Of Jacob
Mackler. an attorney who had de-
Tended members of the "Jelly Rolls"

OIL AT KINCSVILLE
Humble's We'll Sprayed 100 Barrels
Then Sandcd Up.

kinssville, Tex, March 26.-wurk
OF tearing down the derrick of the
Humble Oil 4 Refining Company,
which was seriously wrecked Thurs
day night when Humble well No. /
blew the drill stem out, twisting ii
into a letter s, is in progress today,
and q new derrick will be erected as
soon as possible. Sightseers who have
been visiting the well returned to
town with bottles filled with oil,
which has been gathered from the sur
rounding country.
The wind was from the southeast
when the well came in and oil was
sprayed for almost one mile. Ruts in
the road showed a generous amount
of oil, while little pools of it could
be seen everywhere, especially in a
patch OF mesquite timber adjoining the
well on the north. 1t is generally con-
coded that the well is an oil we'll. not
a gasser, as first reported. A close
lid has been placed on all employees
OF the company and no information
is being given out. But every one
who has visited the well is convinced
that it would have taken perhaps one
hundred barrels or more of oil to have
covered the country as it was covered
the morning after the blow out.
After blowing for four hours II
sanded up, but those who were on
the scene stated that the oil spray was
much more noticeable at that time
than when it first came in. Lease
holdings have jumped and a number
OF Oil men have been on the ground.
IL is believed that as soon as the new
derrick is erected, that the well. will
be drilled few feet deeper, q strainer
set and the well brought in. 1t is re-
ported that the core bit penetrated
thirteen feet Of the oil sand and did
not get through it. Hundreds Of cars
have visited the scene since the we'll
blew in and there is excitement
around Kingsville.

Coleman stated would be sufficient for
a campaign this spring.
Many farmers were present and the
annual loss from chickens, etc. from
coyotes, amounted in some instances
to as much as $50 on a single farm.
1t is reported by these farmers that
the coyotes and bobcats are on the
increase since the allowance for boun-
ty was stopped about five years ago.
and that unless some steps were taken
that the poultry industry. which is
fast becoming one of the leading in
dustries in the county, would be Sc
riously handicapped.
Mr.. Coleman came here from the
Panha ndle country where he has been
conducting similar campaign and
which, according to his statement had
proven very satisfactory.

Copyrieht 1929,

Santiago, March 26.-In his ad-
dress opening the Fifth Pan-American
conference, yesterday, President Ar
turo Allessandri, of Chile, held that
among the things that would be help
full to the American republics and
in line with the purposes Of their
union, were prohibition, close atten-
ton to the social welfare of their
peoples, expenditures, for armament
reduced to the minimum, the codifi-
cation of international law and the
establishment Of an international

The reference in President Alessan-

President Harding and his move for
the reduction of armament was loud

While the Chilean executive urged
the reduction of ornaments in ac-
cordance with the need of protecting

by accommodating batteries Of
anti-aircraft guns placed with mathe-
NAUTICAL precision so that their ranges
would interlock and allow solid
barrage to be shot into the air on
an instant's notice.
The greatest defect of anti-aircraft
guns today lies in their comparatively
short range which is wholly made
quste TO reach planes flying above
$4,000 feet. New and powerful
searchlights developed since the war
add tremendously to the danger Of
crossing the British coast line at
night but heavy mists or fogs offer
insuperable Obstacles to searchlight
protection. Should actual competition
in aerial construction begin between
France and Great Britain both would
undoubtedly place enormous mobile
fleets of anti-aircraft guns combined
with searchlights both ashore and
afloat capable of concentrating quick
ly, small destroyers dashing along the
coast waters while powerful motor
trucks speed along on specially built
coastal roads.
London may become under compe-
titive pressure one of the most strong
" fortified cities in the world against
air attacks, encircled by long range
"archies" disguised in every possible
manner to confuse observation from
the air, and dotted with aerodromes
making possible continual traffic into
the heart of the city. The same pro-
tective measures could be developed
in every town in southern England
but under present conditions London
only is considered.

No Prosecutions.
In none of these killings has there
been any prosecution. The police
are unable to get witnesses and the
gang code of an eye for an eye and

to avoid the law and settle their own

Coy. Hunt Scores One on the
Colorado Pacists.

Gov. Hunt scored the fol-
lowing on the pacists in his
recent speech at Bisbee which
is respectfully dedicated here
to Mu1ford Winsor, the King
man Miner and Carl Hayden:
The Colorado River Com
pact is bargain between 7
states, and if you will recall,
the figure seven has very
fateful place in the history of
the world closely connected
with agriculture and water.
Do you recall the story in the
old testament about the sev
en- years of plenty in the land
of Egypt which was followed
by seven years of famine?
And do you recall how the
47th chapter of Genesis tells
the story of how a certain
gentleman Of Hebrew persua-
sion went to the Egyptian
king during the years of
plenty and induced him to
buy and store up all of the
grain IN the land? and when
there was no bread in all the
land and people were faiuting
aud dying of starvation and
destitution, how Joseph then
demanded all their money for
which he gave them grain;
and when their money was all
gone he demanded their cat
tie, and finally their horses,
herds and asses-Egypt is
not the only place where asses
have suffered as result of bad
bargains-and when they had
nothing left he traded their
lands in exchange for grain;
and then Joseph said unto the
people: "Behold I h ave
bought you this day for Phar-
aoh!" Arizona is having not
seven, but seventy times sew
en- lean years, because the
great Colorado river flows to
the sea and the waters are
wasted.
But about Joseph who put
the money back in the sacks
of grain sold to his brothers.
He brought his father and
the entire tribe Of Israel to
Egypt, gave them plenty of
land in Goshen and Pharaoh
allowed them to handle his
herds of cattle. Joseph was a
provider and a benefactor.
He was not suspicious OBJ
jector. He believed God sent
him to Egypt to preserve life,
altho his brothers sold him
as slave. Joseph of the old
Testament is a much better
character than the doubling
