not deal with quotas or other regula-

deals solely and specifically with the
expulsion Of aliens who are already

opens the doors to deportation in
many cases for trivial or technical
reasons and subjects every alien to

feel secure with these provisions in

motions flied by the attorneys.
The decision as it will be applied
to shale lands in the future means that
an actual discovery must be made on
each shale claim. On land back from
the escarpments and covered to cor
siderable depths by other formations
this can only be done economically by
the use of drills. Believing that the
geology of the county was sufficient
to prove the existence of the shale and
that no actual discovery was necess-
ary, thousands Of acres Of this land
have been covered by mineral claims
that will, in the light of this decision,
become void and the shale will revert
to the government to be held until such
time as the demand for its oil content
will induce operators to lease the lands
on royalty basis.

GOV. SWEET FAILS TO GUST CIVIL SERVICE HEAD

and number who have been at this

The dinner included turkey with all
the trimmings and was served at 1880

linen and silverware, to nineteen men,
one being served in his room. The
twenty-five pound turkey was donated
by Mrs. Mary e. Cunningham Of Dav-

The men. were also given fruit, candy
and cigars.
The men range in age from sixty
five to ninety one years, and the look
of appreciation as seen in their faces
by the twelve ladies present well re-
paid them for their efforts. One man
who has had no legs for a number Of
years was able to walk to the table
on artificial legs purchased by the club
with the assistance of the county.

SEEK REDUCTION
IN TAX VALUES

Sam G.. McMullen, well known At
torney of Grand Junction, this week
filed suit in the district court against
Alex Simpson, county assessor, in an
effort to secure for two Of his clients,
the Mama Corporation and the Home
Loan AND Investment company, the
former an Illinois corporation and the
latter Grand Junction corporation,
seeking to compel Mr.. Simpson in his
official capacity to reduce the valua-
tion on the real property in Garfield
county owned by these corporations.
Mr.. McMullen Gets forth in his
pleadings the claim that the valuation
of the property is excessive and un-
reasonable, and he undertakes to name
the amount at which the property
should be assessed. He recites that
the valuation placed by Simpson on
the property of the Miama Corporation
is $79,4s 5,whereas the full cash value
of the property is only $5s,s1o, the
claim being that Simpson has placed
an excess value Of $20,875 on the
property.
As to the Home Loan and Invest
nent company the claim is made that
the full cash value Of the property is
only $4,000, and that Simpsons ap-
praisemf mt of $23,455 against the
property is excessive to the extent of
$9,255, and the court is asked to order
these corrections made.
Mr.. Simpson has refused to make
: the reductioons as requested, claiming
that his valuations Of the property OF
these corporations are in proportion ia
the valuations he has placed on Other

the executive blaze kindled will be
quenched. Presumably the governor
is having lot Of fun as result Of
his childish maneuvers, but there is q
saying to the effect that he laughs
best who laughs last, and at the pres.
-ent time Roberts is- mot at all Down,
cast, according to the latest reports
received by The Post.
Judge Buffers ruling is to the ef-
feet that the bodily custer Of Roberts
at the instigation and on the positi' e
orders of Governor Sweet was illegal,
that whatever right the governor may
have had to make an appointment, he
lacked the legal right to induct his
appointee into office by force. This
means that Roberts is the winner Of
the first bout, and that Hicks must
seek his remedy through quo warranto
proceedings in the supreme court.

was enthusiastic over the camp.

STOCKMEN CONSIDER
ORDERLY MARKETING

Officials of the Colorado Stock
growers association called confer
ence for Jan. % in Denver to discuss
with stockyards representatives and
railroad men plan for establishing
system of orderly marketing of
livestock.
"Orderly marketing would unques-
tionably save shippers from enormous
losses from breaks in the markets, I"
declared Harry j. Capps, president Of
the organization. At the, annual meet
ing held last month it was estimated
that shippers lost almost 81 100000 in
one week last year because Of not fol-
lowing an orderly marketing program.
ofthis amount, shippers to the Denver
market lost 100000.
The loss came when more than 5000
head were dumped on the Denver
market on Nov. II. According to
stockyards officials, the market un-
doubtedly would have held from steady
to strong had the excessive shipments

By decision of December 20, 1924,
the department of the interior revers-
ed the general land office and upheld
the register and receiver of the local
land office at Glenwood Springs in
the we'll known Summers case. This
is decision of far reaching import
ance in the oil shale districts since it
was generally understood that this
vast to be test case that would ap-
ply to many thousands of areas of oil
shale lands where by geological infer
ence the shale is known to exist be-
cause of the continuity of the beds,
but on which no actual discovery has
been made since the beds are covered
by some hundreds Of feet Of higher
formations.
George l.. Summers, the contestee, is
a well known homesteader whose place
is located about 20 miles north Of
DeBeque, Colorado. He filed on an
original 32O-acre homestead and later
secured an additional stockraising en-
try. On applying to make proof his
entries were contested by J. D. Free
man and the Standard Shales Products
company on the grounds that the en-
tire homestead was included in what
they stated were valid oil shale min.
eral claims.
The cases came to trial in the Glen
wood Springs land office on Septem-
Der 5, 1928, occupying eight days dur
ing which numerous witnesses were in
troduced to prove or disprove the min
eral character of the land, the validity
Of the claims as to proper location,
discovery and assessments, and the
feasibility of utilizing the land for
successful farming operations.
Tho register and receiver rendered
decision favorable to the contestee,
Summers, on the belief that no actual
discovery of oil sha1e had been made
on the land in controversy as the valu.
able shale lay at depth of several
hundred feet under the surface of the
Summers place and had never been ex-
posed on this ground to constitute q
discovery. 1t was also held that the
assessment work done was insufficient
to validate she claims and that the
| question as to whether Sumers could
or could not make a living on the
place was immaterial, the validity Of
the mineral claims being the main
point at issue.
On appeal the commissioner of the
/ general land office reversed the de-
cis.on of the local officers, but on
further appeal to the secretary Of the
! interior the local officers were upheld
in every point with the one exception
Of the insufficiency Of assessment
work and on this point the depart
ment refused to rule since, if no dis.
covery had been made the claims were
| iHNhiiu anu Ihc aIHouHt OIL assessment
work done would be material.
Both sides of the contest were ably
conducted by well known attorneys,
G. w. Darrow appearing for the con-
testants and Frank Delaney for Sum-
mers. The evidence in the case was
voluminous, occupying about 140 legal
size pages of typewritten matter and
the complete record as presented to
the secretary of the interior included
several hundred pages of briefs and
