D. 437). Circular No. 672 and Sec. Pc of Circular No. 845, ap- proved August 12, 1922, (49 L. D., 247) are modified to make the following re- quirements.
 Where Permits Have Not issued
 l. All applicants must hereafter de scribe lands with reference to true cardinal directions and in cases where applications have heretofore been made and can conform to such direc- tiops without prejudice to valid inter vening claims said applications must be amended to conform to true cardi- nal directions
 2. In order to permit adjustment of conflicts the claims of all conflict ing applicants must be identified with reference to common monument which can be definitely ascertained and located upon the records and plats in this office.
 These conflicting claims fall into two general classes: (a) Those in volvirg lands located in the vicinity of the public land surveys; (b) those involving lands which are removed from such surveys.
 The following regulations are pre- scribed for the designation oi these lands in applications for prospecting permits:
 (a) In all cases where circum- stances permit, applicants for pros pecting permits for unsuryeyed lands must describe the lands applied for by metes and bounds connecting such de- scription by courses and distances to some monument of an approved pub lie land survey.
 The point of reference utilized may be the initial monument erected by another applicant who has described said monument by courses and dis tances with reference to a public sur vev monument, provided the location of said monument has been definitely established with reference 70 the pub lie land survey.
 In such case, however, the location of the adopted monument, with re- spect to such public land survey mon unlect must be stated or the field notes or calculations by which the To- cation of the applicants initial monu nent with reference to the public sur vey monument was obtained, must be furnished
 (b) In cases where there are nc available public land survey monu ment, must be stated or the field notes or calculations by which the location of the applicants initial monument with reference to the public survey

 (b) In cases where there are no, ments the applicant for permit must describe the land by metes and bOundsI designating the location of his initial monument by courses and distances, with reference to sues permanent monuments as will enable this office to identify its location from its re- cords and maps.

 3. An applicant for permit must state, under oath, whether his appli- cation is for any lands described in any prior application, or in any no-i tice posted on the ground within six months prior to the date of the filing of his application.
 In the event that there are any prior conflicting claims for permits the applicant initiating the subse- quent claim must describe the land desired with reference to the initial monuments of each prior claimant Where Permits Have Issued A. Numerous permits have been issued for unsurveyed land in cases where the Department could not de- termine whether conflicting claims existed, or the extent of apparent conflicts, upon the following condi- tions:
 'This permit is granted upon the express condition that the permittee will adjust any conflict with any prior applicant within six months from date | hereof"
 l In many cases where conflicts have apparently existed the permittees have failed to comply with this con- dition. Any extension of time for be- ginning or completing drilling opera tons, granted pursuant to the act of January II, 1922 (42 Stat 844), does not extend the time for compliance with the foregoing condition and these permits are subject to cancella- tion for default in this respect.
 5. All permittees who have receiv- ed permits upon the foregoing condi- tions and are in default must, within 90 days from receipt of this notice, submit:
 (a) Their affidavits that there are no conflicting claims initiated simul- taneously with, or prior to, their mi tiat1on of claim to permit, and where this office has stated that such conflicts apparently existed, they must furnish amended descriptions locating the claims with reference to the initial monument of the prior claimants, clearly indicating that such conflicts do not exist; or
 (b) Their affidavits showing an ad iustment of these conflicts or such eff. fort as was made to procure one which must be accompanied by such amended descriptions with reference to the initial monuments of the prior conflicting claimants as will enable this office to make such final adjudi cation or rights as the facts may war rant.

FORBES SAYS DR. SAWYER
 OPPOSED INNOVATIONS

WASHINGTON, Nov. z5.-Charles Forbes, in his testimony today said that Dr. Sawyer was constantly oppos- ed to conferences of scientific consul tants who came to Washington to as- sist the devising of means of caring for disabled veterans; that he wanted all patients housed together and that he insisted that homeopathic doctors be given the same opportunity to treat the cases are other doctors.
 He said Sawyer told him that he was going to see that homeopathic doctors had their innings, and always claimed he had the authority of the President for everything.
 T can say frankly" said Forbes, that Sawyer exercised more author ity around Washington than any sen- ator and he got away with 1t, by hay ing Harding's confidence. I do not believe the Veterans Bureau will function effectively until there is a change in the system. There must be more than one man to direct it and an unbiased, non-partisan board should run it."

WASHINGTON, D.

It was revealed that Mortimer found him and Mrs. Mortimer alone in an apartment, the door of which Forbes declared was wide open. He admitted he had given s3OOO position as me chanical engineer to George Tullido, 22-year-old brother of Mrs. Mortimer.
 John F. O'Ryan, general counsel for the Senate veterans committee, was deeply stirred by Forbes charges of bias by the committee. He announced that he expected to prove convincing ly that Forbes was one of a gang of conspirators tied together to defraud the government. He said, T expect to show further that this criminal con- duct is in consonance with the pre- vious life record of Forbes"

rieS Started Yesterday At
ternoon-Piedmont Flag

Ed "Blackie" Regain, member of
the Danville, Va, nine, second half
champions of the Piedmont league

take part in the second practice of
the Perth Amboy basketball team.

ahead of the Raleigh outfit, for the
second half title and the playoff Sc
ries with Greensboro, the first half
winners, was started yesterday. 1t
is not known whether the series will
be for five or sever games.
The Amboy ball tosser played a
prominent part in the showing made
by the second half champions. He
covered the center pasture in classy
fashion, hit well and was a flash on
the bases. Freddy Dorman, of New
ark, well known basketball tosser,
performed in the shortfeld for the
Tobacconists and his work also was
a big factor in the second half race.
Dorman recently was sold to the
Charlotte, N. c., team.
Local fans have been following
the doings of the Danville team all
season, because of the sensational
work of "Blackie" Ragen. The Wa
ter street tosser has been with the
Piedmont league club for several
seasons and if he continues the
brand of ball exhibited during this
season, he will soon be UP in higher
circles.
