THE coming Congress will be one of
the most critical in the history of our
country and it remains to b. seen
whether our representatives will con-
tinue on the steady march in the di-
rection of Moscow or turn TO the safer
paths of the fathers Both political
parties were responsible for the agri-
cultural relief bill and both should be
responsible for its repeal.
1T cannot be done by any one party.
Let one party propose repeal, the other
will think it good politics to oppose re-
peal. I have said elsewhere and now
repeat that in this world crisis the best
men of both parties in Congress should
form a patriotic coalition. To say that
this cannot be done on the eve Of a
presidential election is to impeach the
capacity of the American people for
self government. The best men of each
party, who value the interests of our
Nation above the temporary advantages
OF party politics. should unite to pre-
serve America from the destructive fol-
lies Of state Socialism. ."

HANFORD, Calf, March 14.-The
financial embroglio surrounding the in
cTeaSing estate Of Washington Henry
Ochsner, former Stanford University
professor Of geology, deepened yesterday
with the filing Of a new legal action.
More than 40 persons in Fresno
County, appearing as plaintiffs, as
serted half of the estate had been held
in trust for them under a contract
drawn 81 years ago. Under this old
contract they claimed half interest
in 1885 acres of the rich north dome
Of Kettleman Hill oil fields, which they
valued at $500, 900 an acre.
The complaint set forth that the
Morrow family and others residing near
Sanger filed a mining location in 1910
on more than a section Of Kettleman
Hills. Under a contract with Fresno
financiers they were reserved half in
terest in the profits. Ochsner signed a
contract to carry on development work
In 1920 Ochsner obtained a prospect
ing permit on the 1855 acres. Although
It vas in his name, the plaintiffs con-
tended he obtained it in behalf Of the
plaintiffs in so far as their interest was
concerned
Three former wives of the geologist,
who died apparently in moderate cir
eumstanceS, are fighting for his estate.
All suits were filed after it was dis
covered Ochsner had become post
humously wealthy.
