MYSTERY SPRING
 PUZZLES TEXANS
32,OOO co Gallons of Water Flow Daily
 Source Unknown

Balmorhea, Tex (UP)--For three years government experts have been testing the mountains and adjacent territory around Bal- morhea in an effort to locate the source of a mysterious spring that flows 32,000,000 gallons of water q day and creates q fertile valley of 15,0O0 acres here.
 The government experts, if they crease the flow.
 Water from the spring runs into a 640-acre lake at Balmorhea after passing through probably tho finest swimming pool in the southwest.
 During the winter months the spring, together with surface drain- age from the mountains, fills the huge lake to a depth of 40 feet. In the summer the water is released

for farm lands. Cotton and alfalfa are the principal crops.
 Another mystery attraction at BaImorhea Is Phantom Lake, formed by q flow of water from the face of q mountain bluff. The water gushes out on private ranch property.
 Three is a legend at Balmorhea that three brothers discovered this flow of water from the cliff and one Of them determined to investigate.
 According to the legend. he dived Into the stream and swam under q ledge from behind which the water gushed, then came up on the other side to find himself in a large and beautiful cavern.
 Most Balmortheans doubt the story and. 50 far as is known, no present resident has tried to swim back under the ledge to verify It.

DIVIDEND
BY D. {. BANK
UNLIKELY
By EUGENE A. KELLY

ny EOOECNE "A. NELLY
Prospects for early payment of
another dividend to depositorS in
the closed District National Bank
are exceedingly gloomy, it was
learned from official sources to-
day.
This prediction is based on the
fact that the assets now held by
the bank are only secondary. the
prime assets having been taken
over by the Hamilton National
Bank. These secondary assets,
while normally good, would be
sold at a great loss if thrown on
the market today.
RFC Loans Blocked
Furthermore, the receiver of the
bank Is not authorized to ask the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton for additional loans on the
assets he now holds because of a
contract made with the Hamilton
National Bank. This contract ex-
pireS September Is. Under its
terms the Hamilton National Bank
can throw back any assets it has
taken over and take others in
their place.
The defunct institution still
owes the RFC approximately
100000. This debt, it is believed,
will be liquidated before additional
relief is granted the depositors.
Assessments Delayed
While some relief is anticipated
from the a SIS S S m n t s levied
against the stockholders, it was
learned today that much of this
money will be collected through
court procedure, which means pro-
tracted legal battles and conse-
quent delay in relief.
The receiver of the District Ma
tional Bank probably will ask for
. reappraisal of the assets given
as security for the loan from the
RFC. If there are sufficient as
sets, the receiver will be enabled
also to ask for new loans.
