Purchasers at Pri-
vate Sale; High Bid
Considered Unsafe

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-(P)-Sec-
retary West today rejected all bids
for government oil from the Salt
Greek Field, Wyo., because the high-
est bidder refused to make bond and
give information requested by the
department, and then entered into
contract with tn White Eagle Oil
and Refining company and the Texas
Company for the oil at private sale.
The interior department announced
that the sale of the oil to the White
Eagle and Texas companies for 21 3-4
cents per barrel above the highest
posted field price at 8 private sale
was mandatory under the law by
which the Royalty Oil contracts are
made.
The highest Of the bids submitted
was by William l.. Walls of Chey-
enne, Wyo., ~ cents per barrel above
the posted field price.
The department had asked Walls
for a full statement Of his financial
ability and the name Of an accredited
surety company willing to write a
three year bond for S250,000. Mr..
Walls, after further communication
with the department, did not satisfy
the secretary that his bid should be
accepted under the advertisements.
Mr.. West therefore asked for bids

Resolution Requir-
ing District Keep in
Own Bounds

ANY ship channel to be construct
ed by the Brownsville navigation dis
trict must run direct from Brazos
Santiago Pass to the proposed turn
ing basin near Brownsville, accord
ing to the terms Of resolution
passed by the Cameron county COM
missioners court Friday morning.
This resolution would eliminate
any project proposing construction
Of a channel direct from the pass to
a point near Point Isabel and thence
to the Brownsville turning basin.
The resolution was presented by
Commissioner S. III. Bell Of the
Brownsville precinct and received
the votes Of Commissioners j. K.
Baughn and Constant La Roche.
Commissioner a. v. Logan Of San
Benito did not vote, stating he was
neither protesting against nor ad-
vocating the resolution and that he
did not consider it a matter which
should properly come before the COM
missioners court.
Members of the port committee,
when interviewed, stated that the
only opposition TO the bond issue,
and the district, except at Los Fres-
nos, was voiced by those who fear
that the funds from the bond issue
will be used 70 develop Point Isa-
bel and not Brownsville. The pur-
pose of the order, they stated, was
to bind morally, and as far as possi-
bic, legally, those delegated with
authority TO spend the districts
money to develop a port at Browns
vile, a Brownsville mainland chan
mel, and Brownsville channel
through Laguna Madre. In other
words. to develop Port Brownsville,
