AUSTIN, Nov. 2. — (P) — Walter
Woodward, state senator, of Coleman,
said Wednesday following a conference
with Gov. R. S Sterling that he ex-
pected a special session of the Texas
legislature will be called to convene
Thursday to enact laws to strengthen
the oil and gas conservation statutes.
Governor Sterling has been ponder-
ing the advisability of calling a special
session since a three-judge federal
court several days ago declared Invalid
orders of the Texas railroad commis-
sion by which the commission sought
to regulate oil production in the east
Texas field. The governor wss be-
sieged with requests to convene the
lawmakers in special session to enact
laws broadening the powers of the
commission in oil and gas conserva-
tion matters.
The federal court held the orders of
the commission were an attempt to
limit production to market demand.
The opinion declared this was contrary
to Texas statutes which, it stated,
limited the commission to promulga-
tion of orders designed solely to pre-
vent physics! waste.
Should the legislature be convened
it was likely that only laws dealing
with oil and gas conservation would
be considered and that the session
would be short, unless the legislators
became embroiled in sn argument over
contents of the remedial statute.
Many oil operators have urged pas-
sage of a law that would give the
commission the authority to limit pro-
duction to market demand. A similar
law passed by the Oklahoma legisla-
ture has been upheld by the United
States supreme court.

Governor Murray said last night
that he discharged a relative of an

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.—(P—Tempor-

of James Rowland Angell, president
of Yale university.

"We have been forced to make it

Doctor Shadid charged recently that
"the desire of the political machine
to protect Walton from the fire of
Socialist campaigners was one of the
chief motives behind the action of the
election board in keeping Socialist
electors off the ballot."

Thomas. In his telegram to Doctor
Shadid, also urged that Oklahoma
voters favoring him write his name
and the name of James A. Maurer. So-

next Tuesday.
"I have gladly accepted your sug-
gestion of urging Socialists to write
my and Maurer s name on the bal-
lot,” Thomas wired, "although I do
not think it my business to act upon
