TEXAS JUDGE PERMITS
TWO-HOUR OIL FLOW
Injunction Against Test of 10000
Wells Under Railroad Com
mission Modified.
BY the Associated Press.

BY tne Associated PresS.
SHERMAN, Tex, April 8.-Federal
Judge Randolph Bryant today gave the
Texas Railroad Commission permission
to conduct two-hour open flow test Of
the 10000 wells in the East Texas oil
field. An injunction issued March 20
against the test was modified.
Extension of the shutdown of the
field until April 81 was authorized. The
commission closed the wells for a 5-day
period Wednesday.
Neal Powers, assistant Texas attorney
general, said Judge Bryant had con-
tinufd indefinitely the hearing on a
contempt citation he issued against the
three commissioners two weeks ago.
The citation ordered them to show
cause why they should not be punished
for issuing proration orders In the East
Texas field similar IN import to those
previously held invalid by Federal court
decisions.
The commission planned the open
flow test and potential gauge to gain
data for use in compiling a new pro-
ration order.
The present order, based one-third
on per well quotas, one-third on sand
thickness and one-third on bottom
hole pressure factors, permitted an al
loweble of 100000 barrels daily In the
field.

CUTS IN BUDGET
HIT BY CITIZENS
Mount Pleasant Association
Also Asks U. S. to Pay
Larger Share.

A stand in vigorous opposition to the
proposed cut in the District appropri-
atoms for 1884 was taken by the Mount
Pleasant Citizens Association last night
at It's regular meeting In the Mount
Pleasant branch of the Public Library
A formal protest against the cut was
unanimously adopted and the secretary
was directed to forward copies to Con-
gress and the Federation Of Citizens
Associations.
I'VE keenly regret the apparent dis
position of the Bureau of the Budget,
and thus far the House of Representa-
tives, to 50 curtail expenditures as will,
In our opinion, seriously limit the nee
essary additions to and Improvements
IN our school system, curtail the service
Of our public libraries, discontinue the
use Of recently constructed modern in
Generators and affect detrimentally the
police and fire services, all of which
will close possible avenues for employ
ment," the resolution stated.
Called Inconsistent
In protesting against the proposed cut
In the Federal contribution to District
expenses, the resolution said:
II u PcrIifcuI 10 pOInC 10 the IN
consistency of this action in the cur
failing Of local expenditures only to
increase the surplus of the taxpayers
money now impounded In the Federal
Treasury. This inconsistency Is fur
ther emphasized when as it appears, in
our Judgment, that this curtailment
cannot in any wise effect the balancing
OF the Federal budget We earnestly
petition the Congress to reinstate the
estimate as originally recommended by
the Commissioners for the 1884 budget.
We further very earnestly petition the
Congress to increase the Federal con-
tribution to a more nearly just and fair
proportion Of the expenses Of this Fed
eral city"
Grant Commended.
The association adopted another
resolution congratulating Col. U. S.
Grant, Sd, for the splendid work" he
has done as head of the Once of Pub
lie Buildings and Public Parks. Col.
Grant Is to be transferred to the Army
War College here after June.
Thomas H. Braden, president Of the
association, announced that officers will
be elected at the May meeting. the last

ed lecture on the Hoover Dam by George

supervision of the Secretary of Com
merce. It was reported In reliable
quarters yesterday that 1t would be
absolutely an independent agency with
director Of transportation In charge.
Attorney General Cummings has let
1t be known he expects to save vast
sums through q general "house clean
ing aimed at dismissal Of "deadwood"
in personnel. This cleaning-out process
already has begun, with half hundred
minor officials as the initial victims.
Assistants on the stats Of United States
attorneys will be radically reduced in
number, the corps Of special assistants
to the Attorney General will be cut
and many other legal officers and cleri-
cal employees are to go.
The prohibition Bureau, under Maj.
A. V. Dalrymple, has felt first effects
OF general shake-up planned by the
new director. This bureau If tentative
policies are carried out, eventually will
absorb the Bureau of Narcotics and the
Bureau of Industrial Alcohol and may
be transferred from the Department of
Justice to the Treasury, in view of in
creasing importance Of revenue collec-
ton work.
Another plan involving the Narcotics
Bureau, said to have been suggested to
Budget Director Douglas. is the con-
solidation of such revenue collecting
agencies as the Bureau Of Internal
Revenue, the Narcotics Bureau and the
Customs Service into q new Bureau
of Revenue" under the Treasury.
Still another drastic merger pro-
posal understood to have been presented
to Douglas calls for uniflcation Of all
Federal policing activities such as those
of the customs patrol, immigration in
spection work, United States marshal's
office and Coast Guard This plan also
would call for inclusion of fngerprint
work of the Department of Justice, en-
forcement Of the Mann act and Dyer
act and certain other work OF police
nature.

economies In the Indian Bureau, once
