Judge G. K. Sutherland and Oscar
Petty of Hominy, Lloyd Evans and Hel-
mer Drake of Fairtax and H. C. Adkins
Of Barnsdall were the guests from other "
cities at the Pawhuska Chamber of
Commetce luncheon Monday noon, for 1
a discussion of the future of Osage :
Hills State Park, which was abandoned I
recently by the CCC, with considerable 1
construction work unfinished. Judge 1
Sutherland is chairman of the County ‘
Chamber of Commerce committee on 1
Osage Hills and Evans and Adkins are <
members. Ralph Tolson, member cf 1
the county committee, is chairman of 1
the Pawhuska chamber committee also. '
Information, thus far received, was 1
reported: that probably it will be Im-
possible for the CCC-ID to occupy the
park camp; that the idea of the park
being used for military training pur-
poses is doubtful, although Congress-
man Disney had thought at one time
that might result; that the state park
commission doubts it will have enough
money to complete Osage Hills con-
struction unless it might be with a
WPA or NYA set-up; that the state
park commission has named men as
caretakers for the area, and that the
state park commission will meet on
July 18 to consider the Osage Hills pro-
position.
It was the Idea of Judge Sutherland,
endorsed by other speakers, that only
a small committee should be sent to
Oklahoma City on July 18 to confer
■With the state board, and that the com-
mittee should include State Senator
Curnutt, and Representatives Bacon
Mahan and Holliman. Sutherland, Ad-
kins and others endorsed the state-
ments of J. Corbett Cornett that lie
park is worth saving and that every I
effort sl.o-ild be trade to do so.
The result of the meeting was the;
naming of a committee to attend the
state commission meeting on July lx.
namely, Ralph Tols, 'nd Charles
Gray of Pawhuska; Mtyor R. J. Daugb
erty «f Bartlesville; Judge Sutherland
of Hominy and the four members o.‘
the legislature. The point is stressed
that this is the only state park within
the entire northeast quarter of the
state. Rowland Blanc gave the esti-
mates of $6,000 to complete the recrea-
tional building at the Osage Hills park
and $2,000 to complete the five cabins.
Mrs. Susan Gray, the county home
demonstration agent, was present and
announced the 4-H Federation county
encampment at Camp McClintock in
eastern Osage county next Saturday
and Sunday, with citizens invited to vis
It the camp while the boys and girls
are there. Wm. S. Hamilton gave the
Invocation at the dinner and Dan Ryan,
the new Ford manager for the Cham-
berlin Motors tier'’, was presented as
a new citizen. The Hominy, Barnsdall
and Fairfax men in attendance were
also introduced.
J. Corbett Cornett made a report on
the pending NYA training school here
for girls, explaining that while defi-
nite results have been reached the dis-
trict supervisor W. M. Siegenthall of
ulsa. will be here In the near future
with the necessary contracts to be sign
ed.
The secretary announced a dinner »o
be held soon in Bartlesville, at the
suggestion of the Enid Chamber of
Commerce, to discuss the completion
Of VS highway 60 east from Nowala
to a conjunction with highway 66.
Fred Ahrberg stated that fair dates
had not yet been named because of
the failure thus far to secure a proper
carnival company for that event, but
that he was advertising in the "Bill-
board" this week for such a carnival.
The dates of the Tulsa fair were an-
nounced as August 31 to September 5.

Well, we wonder who it retpon-
tible that Oklahoma it short of
skilled labor? Had Elmer Thomas
and Josh Lee been on the Job,
looking to the interests of Okla-
homa, their constituents, instead
of parading throughout the east,
boosting their own stock in trade,
we would have had defense pro-
jects and skilled labor would have
stayed in Oklahoma, instead of go
ing to other states, where there
were jobs, and where they were
getting defense projects.
Oklahoma has been betrayed by
their own Senators, in that they have
not taken an Interest in the welfare of
Oklahoma. Now that fire is being built
under these two distinguished (?) gen
tiemen they are getting on the line
and trying to do something. At least
they are on the defensive, and making
excutes, trying to hoodwink the people
of Oklahoma into believing we cannot
take care of any of the programs of
defense. If we could get something,
skilled labor would soon return to Ok
lahoma, but just so long as we relax
and let these two gentlemen tell us
■ we can’t get .■'nyUiing, iust co long
are we going to be without our share
of these projects.
The entire state of Oklahoma
should awake to the necessity of
letting these two gentlemen know
just how we feel about their laxity
and indifference. When election
time rol's around, Oklahomans
should, and we predict will, be
just as lax voting for either of
these men, as these men have been
lax in caring for the interests of
the people of Oklahoma. When elec
tion time comes around Sena
tors Lee and Thomas will find
themselves replaced by high-class
men, who have Oklahoma's interest
at heart. It’s high time
people of Oklahoma take
ter in hand, and see to it
have representation in
ton, instead of rubber stamps
