unil that the coal strike settlement
effected ut Clevelund may be broad-
i ti'il an Hip result of the conference
of anthracite operators ami United
Aline Workers chiefs' opening In
Philadelphia tinlay.
Officials were making no predic-
tions of an early end of the rail
strike despite their liopi'ful atti-
tude. Tim president's ili'dsion In
postpone his message tame ufler
congressional o d v i s o r s strongly
urged such a course in the feur
that IiIh recital of the governmental
moves to bring peace and llui out-
line of the positions taken by the
two factions might prove some hind
ranee to the New York conference.
In the present situation with a
possible settlement pending; the
president has naturally decided on
wliitt measures he will suggest to
congress for ending the dispute.
It is known however thut 'when
lie does address congress he will
make recommendations for legisla-
tion that will tend to prevent a Te-
cum nee of the disastrous rail and
dial strikes In the future.
Harding also will ask that con-
gress grant Secretary of Commerce
Hoover's request for legislation to
check profiteering In coal this win-
ter when a serious Bhortago is cer-
tain to exist despite the coal settle-
ment and in this connection revival
of some sections of tin; war-time j
Lever food and fuel control law may
lie suggested.
Prompt action on the hill pending
in congress for a federal commission
to Investigate the coal Industry is
virtually 'certain to be asked such
an agency having been asked by
both operators and miners.
Fears Embarrassment.
Washington Aug. 18. Fear of em-
barrassing tho peace conference of
ihe railroad executives and tho big
four brotherhoods In New York
caused President Harding to postpone
his scheduled appearance before con-
gress with his summary of the rail-
road and coal strikes.

(By The United Press.)
Washington Aug. 17. The chil-

ington in April to secure the re-
lease of their lathers and brothers
serving sentences for violation of
tho espionage act during the war
are closing their cahiftuign here all

been released according to an an-
nouncement today by Airs. Stanley
J. Clark one o the leaders of tho
crusade.
iSlnce the campaign was started
here in April seven political prison-
ers fathers and brothers o the
child crusaders have either had their
sentences commuted or been paroled.
Herrick said by distributing gifts
of fish apples and automobiles.
He predicted Garber would be pro-
hibited from making the final race
for election In November as a re-
sult of the contest filed and the
order for the attorney general to In-
vestigate. "Right after the election I came
up here" Manuel said. "I told you
newspaper boyss that 'the taters
aint . ripe in this congressional hill
yet and I'll dig 'em when they get
ripe.' Now they are ripe and I
want the people to know.
'There will be a run-oft primary
between Charley Swindi.ll and me
and I will be re-elected. No doubt
but Charlie will run because Charlie
is a political maniac. I don't think
anybody but Charlie and me will
run."
In his petition contesting the nomi-
nation of Garber Herrick asked an
investigation so that "Newberryism
may not be allowed to disgrace the
fair name of Oklahoma."

DECLARES TRUST
Democratic Senator Says World-Wide
Monopoly Controla Crude Oil Sup-
ply; Will Investigate Al-
leged Workings.
(By Tin- Unil.il Frrt.)
Washington Aug. 17. Ramifica-
tions of an alleged gigantic oil mono-
poly extending throughout the world
will be probed by the senate commit-
tee investigating high gasoline prices
Senator Smith South Carolina rank-
ing democrat declared today.
Charges have been brought before
members of tho committee that three
monopolistic companies with exten-
sive holdings in America Mexico and
Kurope had acquired directly or in-
directly control of about three-fifths
of the world's crude oil supply ac-
cording to Smith.
With these vast holdings the com-
panies through an alleged interlock-
ing arrangement are able to fix arbi-
trarily the price of gasoline kero-
sene fuel oil and all petroleum pro-
ducts it was said.
If the charges of a gigantic mono-
poly are sustained a federal investi-
gation under the anti-trust laws will
be demanded Smith said.
In order that tho charges may be
brought before the public Smith said
that he would demand henceforth
that all witnesses before the commit-
tee be sworn and all documents of
the involved companies be placed
open before American consumers. Oil
men who have appeared before the
committee thus far have not been
tinder oath.
The committee does not plan to
meet again for ten days because
of pressing business in the senate
valuable informatiiig is being gath-
ered by government experts which
It was declared give weight to
charges of a monopoly in tho oil in-
dustry. .
"While we cannot give out details"
Smith said "we have on hand infor-
mation which will produce some sen-
sational effects in t lie gasoline and
oil industry. It is about time the
American people knew the workings
of some of the large oil producing
companies and wo will bring out the
full information when the committee
hearings are resumed."
American companies are Involved
in price fixing manipulations in Mex-
Wilmer Carr according to invest!-
tion tothe committee. Crude oil
which brings about. 11 cents per bar-
rel in Mexico is sold in this country
for more than ?3 per barrel it was
stated. Transportation charges are
less than $1 per barrel.

Issues between democrats and re-

would Btump the state with ut least
one agreed statement that "planlc
one of the Shawnee farmer-labor
platform demanding prosecution of
officials or private citizens implicated
in any tampering with the guaranty
fund of the state.
Walton's statement of yesterday
which reiterated his stand on the
farmer labor platform and did not
mention the democratic platform
held no further interpretation today
other than Walton intends to suffer
no limitations he feels were Imposed
by the democratic convention.
Paul Nesbitt keynote speaker nt
the convention and who is close to
Walton said Walton's statement
means nothing else than that Walton
will take the democratic platform a
far as it goes.
