COOLIDGE USES
VETO ON INDIAN
OIL LEASE BILL

WASHINGTON - A bill author
izing oil and gas mining leases on
unallotted lands within executive
order Indian reservations was We
toed last Friday by President Cool
idge. The measure was the second
returned to Congress at this ses-
sion without the Presidents ap-
proval, the other having been of
minor general Importance.
The measure vetoed Friday would
virtually have validated title to
some 20 permits in Arizona and
Southern Utah fields, while shut
ting out 400 other applications. AL
though it would have provided pay
ment of certain moneys to Indians,
the President said that could be
taken care of in a new bill at a
later session.
Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho
opposed the bill after it's passage
because of the situation surround
ing the permits, which are said to
be held by some Of the large oil
companies.
1t did not appear, the Senator
said, that the legislation so far as
the Indians were concerned, was
Objectionable, nor did it become
apparent when the bill passed the
Senate that there was anything OBJ
jectionable in reference to the per-
mits.

Corporation Com
missioners Report
Record Collection

PHOENIX - Receipts in the Of
flee Of the Arizona Corporation
Commission for the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1926, totaled more
than a quarter of million dollars
according to a statement issued by
Loren Vaughn, chairman of the
commission
The statement compiled by Glenn
D. Grant, cashier for the commits
sion, showed that the total collec-
tions of revenues of all kinds by
the various departments of the
commission for the year beginning
July /, 1925 and ending June 80,
1926, were $25S, ,488.74.
The collections for the year are
the largest annual collections ever
made by the commission, the rec
ords show. It was estimated by
the members of the commission a
year ago when asked for state
ment of the revenues for the fiscal
year by the state tax commission
for use in computing the taxes,
that the receipts would be approx
imately 100000.
The close of the year showed that
the collections were approximate
ly $68, 500 more than the total esti-
mated receipts. The collections for
the year have been turned over to
Vernon Wright, state treasurer, at
the end of each Is days period
during the year for credit to the
general fund of the state.
The report made by Mr.. Grant to
Mr.. Vaughn shows that the total
collections for the last Is days of
June amounted to $11 ,250.53, max
ing the total for the year $258,488.-
"a.
The report shows the total col
lections in each department for the
year to be as follows: Motor We
hicle division, $25, 5,365.70; invest
ment division, $15,12291; insurance
division, $159,934.98; and the in
cooperating department, $58,065.51
An indication that the state is in
prosperous condition, Mr.. Vaughn
said, is shown by the fact that the
receipts in the insurance division
for the year were $159, 9,934.98 or
much in excess of the receipts OF
that department in past yearly per-
iods.
The receipts in the insurance de-
partment are derived from a tax oi
two per cent of the premiums paid
in the state for insurance levied
upon the companies doing bust
ness in the state and from a So pei
capita license tax assessed all in.
surance agents writing insurance
The bulk of the receipts in the in.
surance department, Mr.. Vaugh1
stated, represent the tax on the
premiums paid for insurance.

The COmparatOr

One of the interesting and Incl
dentally one Of the most useful
pieces of apparatus is the com
parator' by which photographs
taken at intervals, which may
range from an hour to months or
even years, may be compared. The
two plates are attached to suitable
arms on the instrument and each
Is brought into the field of view
alternately, by a clever arrange
ment of mirrors and prisms, the
interval between the alterations
being but a fraction of a second.
Looking through the eyepiece, one
sees but one plate at a time and if
there has been the slightest change
in the position of the star under
observation, the rapid alienation
of the sights causes it to appear to
more. Motions too small to be OBJ
served otherwise are made perfect
ly apparent by this wonderful in
Strument.
1t is also of the greatest use in
discovering new" stars, those that
suddenly appear and which blaze
for a few hours or weeks and then
disappear again The astronomers
at Flagstaff have discovered not a
few of these, one quite recently.
At the Flagstaff observatory Wis
itors are made welcome although
the institution is not a public one.
DR.. Slipher and his associates are
always glad to show visitors around
if they have the leisure to do so
and a visit to Mrs. Hill is an edu-
cation in itself.

SHARP DECLINES AFFECTING STOCKS
Disappointment At Dividend Ac-
 tiOn Is Blamed

New York, Dec. 2S P>-Disap- pointment dividend action to specu- lative interests by the Allied Chemi- cal and American Can Companies was held responsible for the sharp decline in prices in today's stock market, instead of making the stock dividend distribution that had been expected, Allied Chemical directors raised the annual rate from s4 10 SC and the stock broke below 136 for an overnight loss of nearly six points. Failure of the American Can directors to declare an extra dividend induced sufficient selling to carry that stock down 2 points.
 Oil, motors and merchandising shares, which had shown signs of strength in the early trading, quick ly sold down with the rest of the list. It was apparent that the re- cent buying movement had been based, at least in part, on expecta- tions of further melon cutting calling of about s20 100000 in loans to strengthen the reserve position of the banks also had a discouraging effect although it caused no change in money rates which are expected to soften again after the turn of the year.
 Liquidation in some issues appear ed to be of an urgent character, one block of $500 shares of Radio com- mon changing hands at 55i2 off 8 points. Dupont, Atlantic Coast Line and U. S. Cast Iron Pipe all sold down four points or more and American Ice and Austin Nichols Pfd., three each.
