OKMULGA COUNTY, OKLA, NOW UNDER M RTIAL EDICT
Governor Declares County In a State Of LaWIessnesS
 And Terror

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. June 26.- J. C. Walton today placed Okmulgee county under martial law, declaring in his proclamation that state of .lawlessness and terror existed there. Announcement of the issuance of the proclamation was made by Aldrich Blake. the governors secretary.
 The proclamation, he said. asserted that "a state of lawlessness and ter TOT" exists in Okmulgee county as a result of the neglect of the sheriff to enforce the law"
 John Russell, democrat. Is the sher- If. He was elected In the general elections last November.
 The governor acted, Blake said, on the strength of signed statements submitted to him by three we'll known Okmulgee county citizens, which, he said. detailed lawlessness in the county.
 They are, according to Blake. the Rev. J. c. Curry. pastor of the Meth odist Episcopal church. South. at OK- mulgee; James Stormant, chief of po- lice at Henryetta. and W. L. Sullins, an Okmulgee automobile dealer.
 Military control probably will be confined, for the present at least, to the sheriffs office, the secretary said.
