LAND
Company Asks Injunction to
Prevent Prosecution OF
Suit BY Work

Suit was filed in the District SUI
preme Court today by the Standard
Oil Company against Hubert Work,
Secretary of the Interior to pre-
vent the prosecution of hearing
in California to deprive the oil COM
pany Of its title to land in Kern
county, which is said ito be within
the boundaries of Naval Oil Re-
serve No. 1, known as Elks Hills.
The company claims its title to the
property was acquired in 1908, long
before any mineral was discovered
on the land and. may not now be
legally attacked by the Government
Chief Justice Mccoy issued rule
requiring Secretary Work to show
cause october II why the injunc-
ton should not be granted.
The Standard concern tells the
court that the title to the land
was SURVEYED in 1903 and acquired
by the State Of California under
school.Iand grant in 1904. The COM
pany got its title from the State
Of California in 1908. and it was
not until 1919 that mineral deposits
were known to be on the property.
The title was Questioned and
hearing held before the Department
of the Interior. resulting in an or
der by e. c. Finneg, assistant Sec
retary to the Commissioners OF the
General Land Office, directing a
dismissal of the contest.

SERVANT SUES BROKER
FOR WAGES DUE AND LOAN

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The un-
usual situation of a servant bring
ing suit for the recovery of her life
savings loaned to her employer
along with unpaid wages totaling
81, 646.83, was disclosed when Mary
Timony filed a suit against Elmer
d. DER, bankrupt broker, who
failed for nearly 100000.
Alleging that she had been en-
ployed by DER since prior to Christ
mas, 1922, and was now employed
doing general housework for him
and his wife, Mary Timony re-
counts at length the manner in
which her bankrupt employer in
duced her to part with $1,000, her
life savings, and give her services
for nothing.
The suit was filed after the
woman had told her troubles to
Romano G. Hassrick, or the legal
aid bureau.

indicates that two things are
likely to occur. First, a turn
toward romance, and away from
the borders of dirt and stark
reality. Second, that the older
playwrights are about to be
turned aside in favor of young
bloods who can write nothing
but "wise-cracking scenes and
alleged humor.
With the war drifting farther
and farther away, with the
smiles of eternal peace favoring
us, and with the settlement of
such herculean questions as
roIl-top hose, the shipping-board
row, and the Mitchell affair,
we'll it's a safe gamble that
the theater will carry its own
and decide on one of the two
courses mentioned above.
At least, we know this to be
more than true: Jazz is fading
away. Even the Charleston,
once sensation, is losing its
punch. And "jazz" in comedy
such pieces as "The Fall Guy"
and "Is Eat So?"-simply can't
make anything more than a
short-lived impression.
Then, too, the trend of world
affairs is destined to influence
dramatic opinion. Creeping
nearer and nearer each day is
a big wave of religious thought,
started on it's way by the
Scopes trial.
Bryan is dead, but his mem
DRY is argumenting the adher-
ents to a national cause.
Unrest has become irritating.
Bad booze is looming as
pestilence. And - if you look
closely-there are a dozen fac
tors in daily life that promise
changes in the playhouse.
AS much as one tries, it is
impossible to divorce the stage
from the intellectual life of a
country. It invariably follows
the mass thought and taste.
America, if the truth were
known, is a very tired land. 1t
has been going a terrible pace
since the war, aided and abetted
in it's course by science and the
follies of mechanical epoch.
It is tired and wants to rest.
So does the theater.
And, wise-crackers to the
contrary, it WILL!
Before the first world series
got nicely seated on a soap-box
out at Griffith Stadium and be-
fore the world had eaten it's
bacon and cold-storage eggs, a
telegraph boy leaped into the
office with the following study
in belles-lettres from the emf
nent and dashing Jim Ring:
The rafters of the haciendas
in the Spanish Village rang loud
and long last night, in honor of
Monta Bell. AS soon as the
jealousy guarded portals of the
night club had been passed, one
might have known, without be-
ing told that a local boy had
made good and the largest
fatted calf obtainable was being
joyfully led to the block.
