BILL
is DUE TO PASS
BUT IS MODIFIED

r. p. Jackson, secretary Of the
Petroleum Conservation Board OF
Montana, returned Friday night from
Washington, D. c.. where he has
been appearing before senate and
house committees with regard to
the proposed new leasing bill.
Since his departure from Wash
ington, Mr.. Jackson reports, the
house public lands committee has
reported out the Greever bill which
is the same as the O'Mahoney bin in
the senate, with some notifications.
The bill of the late Senator Cutting,
who was killed in an airplane acct
dent this week, failed to gain suf-
ficient support to substitute 1t for
the O'Mahoney bill, an admintstra-
ton measure. The latter measure
provides a minimum royalty OF
12hgs on a lease rather than a
permit system. with an annual
rental.
Under the recent ruling Of
Ickes. all permits which
were to have expired this month,
under the maximum OF ii years
allowed by the old law, are extended
10 August 1. Thereafter, In place
of extensions, the government Will
give leases with no allowance Of
preferential" wherein the govern
nent accepts only five per cent roy

IN CUT BANK

The development prograxn o.

Bank field In 1885 Is seventy.
five wells.
This means the further I'M
yestment Of 1880, 900 in drill
ing operations in Cut Bank
daring the present year.
The estimate OF rs wells Is based
on a survey conducted during the
past week by A. r. Wilson, vice
president and manager OF the Rocky
Mountain division of the Texas
company. Mr.. Wilson interviewed
Cur Bank operators with a view 70
determining the probable new pro
duction that may be expected this
year. The only drilling to be done
by the larger operators is that de-
by obligations which cannot
be extended. Mr.. Wilson stated.
Figuring an average Of so bar
rels per we'll. we face the possibility
Of $3.50 barrels of new production"
he said. Allowing a decline Of
900 barrels from our present pro-
iuction Of 5000 barrels, we will
have a total production OF nearly
900 barrels daily by next year"

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-You may
have gone over Niagara in a bar
rel, bailed out of a burning plane
at midnight, and been married five
times, but until you have talked
over the telephone with James Joy
Johnston of Madison Square Gar
den, you haven't fully lived.
If Alexander Graham Bell had
happened to get Jimmy on the other
end of the wire when he tested out
his first telephone, he would have
thrown the whole contraption out
the window and started work on
something else. For Mr.. Johnston
makes the telephone device OF
horror. He answers it with a bel
low which drives the receiver an
eighth of an inch into your noggin
and, going on from there with ev-
er-increasing violence, reaches
peak along toward the end OF the
conversation which has the poles
and wires swinging like trapeze
swing. When talking with Mr..
Johnston from distance under
mile it is much more satisfactory
simply to poke your head out OF
the window and listen.
1 talked to him today concern
ing the heavyweight championship
situation, and he was in excellent
voice, if voice" is the proper word
for the trumpet of bull elephant
on stampede. I wanted to know
what Madison Square Garden
planned to do with Champion
James j. Braddock, now that Joe
Louis had snubbed the offer of a
title fight. He gave me an an
sWer-in spades. And doubled and
redoubled. He talked for 10 min
utes, but after eXpurgation his an
sWer boiled down to this:
Louis is yellow, a fraid-cat, and
sissy, and wants no part OF
Braddock because he knows Brad
dock, of all the fighters in the
business, is not afraid of him and
will walk alertly from his corner
and knock his ears off.
Offered Chance
"If Louis isn't afraid of Brad
dock. why won't he fight him?"
Johnston demanded. when h e
started fighting what did he want?
The heavyweight championship,
What does he want now-what's
his goal? The heavyweight cham
pionship. Well, we're offering him
a shot at it-anytime he says-and
if he thinks he's such a hell OF a
fighter, why doesn't he take it?
