Tolerated

Tom Paggett, champion rodeo rid
err, was relating some Of his expert
ences to prove his claim that horses
have human intelligence. "A horse l
had no business trying to ride, once
threw me into the Colorado river
and then saved my life.
"Now, l had never liked the horse
and the horse had made it plain he
didn't like me, but he evidently drew
the line at murder. When l went
into the river, the horse also fell In
and we were both swept downstream
In the swift current.
II couldn't swim a stroke and
thought l had taken my last ride.
But somehow the horse seemed to
know couldn't swim and came
alongside so that | could grab his
name. Then he dragged me ashore.
Then, when tried to thank him, he
darn near bit a chunk out of my
arm"

oil IMPORT ACTION
SEEN TOMORROW
Chairman Johnson Calls
Meeting of Committee to
Draft Decision.

The Senate Commerce Committee Is
expected to reach a decision tomorrow
on measures seeking to curb the flow
of cheaper foreign oil into the United
States.
Hearings on the subject were COM
pleted yesterday and the way cleared
for final action at a meeting called by
Chairman Johnson 10" tomorrow: In
the meantime the Senate Finance Com
mittee was instructing its chairman,
Senator Smoot of Utah, to move IN
the Senate to get jurisdiction of the
oil legislation and it became apparent
that dispute between the committees
is impending.
Mark l.. Reoua of California, who
was chairman of the petroleum confer
ence held at Colorado Springs, Colo,
two years ago. closed the hearings by
advocating establishment of commit
tee on natural resources WIN authority
to control operations.
Requa declined to take position on
either of the pending bills. Senator
Shortridge, Republican, California, has
proposed a tariff of 81 barrel, and
Senator Capper, Republican, Kansas,
seeks a limitation of 100000 barrels
annually.
Representative Nelson, Repuplcan'
Maine, joined the opposition to the
measures today, asserting it would re-
suit in an increase in prices for fuel oil
and put a number of industries out OF
business.
A close vote was indicated as in
prospect in the Commerce Committee
on the legislation.
Reoua Endorsed the suggestion of
Secretary Wilbur that authority be
given to the Federal Trade Commission
to limit oil importation on a pro rata
basis comparable to the limitation
agreed upon by domestic producers.

STREET HAZARD
LESSENED

Probably one of the most dan.
gerous streets for pedestrians in
Montgomery county. Sligo Ave
nue. in Silver Spring, will shortly
be made safe by improvements.
County authorities contemplate
widening the present 18-foot road,
way to a uniform width of "a
feet from Georgia Avenue to
Grove Street, and later to extend
the improvement to Flower Ave
nue., which will complete a dis
tance slightly less than a mile.
The plans call for 5-foot side
walks and standard curbs, with
the space between the curbS and
the existing 18-foot roadway to be
later built of macadam or con-
crete. The work on the side
walks and curbs, starting Mon
day, will be done with county day
labor.
