CURRENT EVENTS STUDIED
 AT MEETING IN Y. ". (. A.
Mrs. Clarence r. Bennett Speaks on Inland Water Transportation
 and Wall Street.

Topics of the Present Day h. terests' was the subject of d talk by Mrs. Clarence r. Bennett at the Y. W. C. A. last evening. Two topics of national and international inter- est, "The Harnessing of the Ohio River" and "The Wall Street Panic,' were presented.
 The development Of the Ohio river has been a dream of the Unit ed States government engineers for over a hundred years. Nine hundred miles of nine foot channel with 5 locks. 90 Of which are convertible, for use according 10 the season have been constructed. President Hoover is deeply interested in water trans portation - the development of the Mississippi river system which now extends from Pittsburgh west 10 Kansas City and Minneapolis to the Gulf and the St. Lawrence system, Mrs. Bennett said.
 The Wall street panic was describ- ed as a prosperity panic" A con- parison of this with the panic of 1907 attested the strength and i'm portancc Of the federal reserve bank, she said. The government in various ways has strengthened con- tdencc in trade conditions.
 Two book reviews were. given. Hans Frost" by Hugh Walpolc, portraNs the revolt of age against that security which hampers crca- tive ability. Highly praised was "A Victorian 1dyI-Life of Robert and Elizabeth Parrett Browning" by David Loth of the New York World, One Hundred Years Old,' an Otis Skinner play was also reviewed.

BUS DRIVER CUTS WAY
THROUGH FALLEN TREE
Obstruction on Cathedral Avenue
Gives Him Chance to Show
Proves With AK.

A bus driver turned timberman last
night and chopped through 24-inch
fallen tree across Cathedral avenue,
near Massachusetts, avenue, rather than
inconvenience patrons in Wesley
Heights, including a number of night
students at American University.
Lewis Southland, operator of the owl
bus, refused to make a tedious detour
as persons along the route advised. The
self-styled lumbcIman borrowed an ak
from emergency power line crews, and
after an hours industry cleared away
the obstruction.
Southland explained he was raised in
the country and chopping trees was
no novelty to him. He told reporters
today that the obstruction was less
formidable than it seemed to certain
members of the urban population.

WILBUR OUTLINES
RULE IN OIL LEASES
Requires Definite Evidence
of Geological Surveys-Ex-
tensions Considered.

BY the. Associated Press.
Secretary Wilbur today issued an
order that where clear and definite evil
dence was filed showing that adequate
geological surveys had been concluded
applications for permits to prospect for
oil and gas might be granted, and that
where permits had been issued they
might be extended.
An interior Department committee
appointed to carry out President HOO
vers characterization program, in re-
port to the Secretary declared that
where such geological surveys had been
made in its opinion such a survey
should be regarded as an equity.
Text Of Recommendation.
The recommendation follows:
we recommend that in all cases
where clear and definite evidence is
filed showing substantial expenditures
for reliable geological surveys upon the
lands embraced in oil and gas applica-
tionS and permits, or groups of applicN-
tions upon the same structure. or where
the structure is not clearly defined upon
the surface, within an area not exceed
ing six miles square, that the same be
regarded as a sufficient equitable basis
for the allowance of the applications
pending on March IL, 1929, and issuance
of permits thereon, or where permits
already have been issued and requests
for extension are timely filed, that it
be regarded as SUFFICIENT equitable
ground for extension Of such permits.
Geological Work Defined.
Geological work may be distinguish
ed from ordinary preliminary expendi-
lures as the latter do not operate for the
benefit or enlightment of the Govern
ment, whereas geological work supplies
information which is to the advantage
of and may be used by the Govern
ment in the classification and DISPOSE
ton of public lands and their resources.
This is to be contingent upon a showing
of good faith and of responsible dill
gence on the part of applicants, per-
mittees. or those claiming through or
under them"
