NCANN PICTURE
To HANG IN
MUSEUM

THE Monarch of the Golden West. -
painted by the late James +. McCan
and acclaimed one of the greatest
works of twentieth century artists,
will hang in the Witte Memorial
Museum in Breckenridge Park for
the next seven years. it was learned
Friday.
Entering a contract with Claude
McCan, son of the artist. to sell 81
of his paintings, G. ID. Sanders, own
er of the Collins Art Shop, was in
strumental in obtaining the master
piece for the musem. Only twelve ot
the 81 remain unsold, AID Mr.. San
ders expressed confidence that he will
have buyers for the pictures shortly.
THE Monarch of the Golden West
pictures an American eagle sitting on
a lofty crag in the Rocky Mountains.
Vast timberlands are visible in the
valleys below.
With offers of nearly 100000 hav-
ing been refused by the owner of the
picture. Mr.. Sanders declared he be-
lieves it will bring as much as $780,
900 some day.
Mayor John W. Tobin expressed
appreciation for the efforts made BY
Mr.. Sanders to obtain the picture for
San Antonio. The mayor has viewed
the picture several times and believes
it is one of the most beautiful the
museum could boast.
The picture will have a double
meaning" Mayor Tobin stated. "be
cause it is the work of a Texas
artist

SETTLEMENT STILL
FAR in DISTANCE In
COAL MINE DISPUTE

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 29.-[R-
Peace in the hard coal fields of
Pennsylvania seemed as distant as
ever today as the joint committee of
miners and operators entered the
fourth day of the renewed negotia-
tions.
Every formal proposal has been
rejected and so far as could be sscer-
tanned the conference had no definite
plan before it as a basis for settle
ment of the five-month-old strike.
Both sides, however. maintained
their attitude of hopefulness that out
of the numerous plans suggested some
common ground for a settlement yet
may be reached.

Cummins, of Iowa, had the back
ing of the Administration and
proposed measures which have
as their purpose the untangling
of railroad difficulties. Whatever
chances the legislation had at the
first session of the 69th Congress,
the Nickel Plate decision put
aside temporarily.
The Department of Justice has
| also been active in hating the
merger of food companies. An
organization was formed to COM
bine the activities of several
strings of chain stores but a con-
sent decree stopped the proceed
ings. While business interests
are prevented from combining,
the farm organizations are not at
all discouraged at their prospects.
The farmers have a number OF
legislative representatives in
Washington working on plans to
bolster up the farm cooperative
movement. Several bills have
been introduced but the more
drastic measure contemplating
price control of products are
frowned upon by congressional
leaders. The situation in farm
districts is not so bad at pres
ent that emergency measures
will be necessary as was enacted
by Congress a few years ago.
The question of conservation
will undoubtedly be projected
into the political arena, particu-
larly in the West. Little publ
city has been given to the hear
ings ON the so-called Stanfeld
bill to set up local boards of re-
view, in districts where there are
national forests, for the purpose
of passing upon applications for
grazing permits. The Stanfeld
bill was bitterly opposed by the
Department of Agriculture which
has control of the Forest Service.
The Department put in a substi-
tute bill and acrimonious remarks
were passed freely at the hear
ings. The Government limited
rather broadly that the local
members would be inclined to
favor stock raisers and give little
thought to the conservation fea-
ture of forestry. The Department
wants the power to pass upon
applications in order that the
shrubs and growing trees will not
be destroyed by hordes of cattle
roaming through the forests in
search of food. Thus, the battle
between organized stockmen and
the Forest Service has been
brought to a sharp issue.
