Petitions seeking the removal of
Mayor Blinn and three councilmen
were filed Thursday afternoon with
the city clerk.
They contained charges of general
inefficiency, incompetency and dis-
regard of the will of the people
against Blinn: J. E. Taylor, ward two;
Grover Pendleton, ward four, and A.
H Jacoby, ward three.
The accused officials have five
days in which to answer the charges.
After that, their answers and the
charges are printed on petitions which
will be circulated calling for a city
wide recall election. At least 7,000
signatures are necessary on the final

A compromise meeting of Oklahoma senators and repre-
sentatives with Governor Murray Thursday resulted in this
split of his long fought-over, three-point tax program:
INCOME TAX BILL is dead and will not be revived.
CIGARET TAX BILL will be dropped from the program.
SALES TAX BILL will be passed as a 1 percent, general
tax with no exemption, and then will be referred to the
people for approval.
With Murray’s efforts to attach the emergency to the
income and cigaret tax bills failed, these two measures as
passed by the regular session will go before the people on a
ballot in the same election, sponsored by the Citizens league
and th retail merchants in moves to repeal them.

King's Opinion Is Asked
The quick turn of events at the
capitol supported the belief that the
special session would be over by next
week. .
Anglin asked J. Berry King, at-
torney general, whether it would
be necessary for the legislators to re-
main in session for five days after
passage of the sales tax referendum
measure.' _ '
Constitutional provisions require
that a revenue-raising measure muat
be on the governor’s desk five days
before adjournment The question
raised was whether a referendum of
a revenue raising measure also would
have to be on the chief executive’s
'desk five days before adjournment to
be legal.
Legislative leaders indicated no
chances would be taken and that fi-
nal adjournment probably would be
delayed until the period runs.

NEW YORK, June 22.—
(AP)—The American dollar
slumped sharply in foreign
exchange markets Thursday
as currency stabilization
plans apparently were mak-
ing no progress. The Brit-
ish pound sterling, up nearly
6 cents to $4.23%, was at
another new high level since
England shelved the gold
standard in 1931. French
francs, with a gain of nearly
1/10 of a cent at 4.901
cents, had reached their
peak price since the postwar
devaluation of this exchange.
LONDON, June 22.—(P)—
The American delegation to
the world economic confer-
ence said in a statement
Thursday that the United
States government feels cur-
rency stabilization now would
be untimely and possibly
would “cause a violent price

the conferences.

Civilian and governmental aviators
redoubled their search Thursday for
two Spanish trans-Atlantic fliers,
long overdue on a flight from Havana,
after men returned from a fruitless
hunt in mountains southeast of here.
President Rodriquez's office re-
ceived information Indicating the
fliers, Capt. Mariano Barberan and
Lieut, Joaquin Collar, might have
been forced south of their course by
storms and had continued westward
through Tabasco state over the Sierra
mountains in such alcase they might
possibly be far from Villar Hermosa
where they were last seen and the
focal point of the search hitherto.
A department of communications
official Wednesday night said he had
confirmed reports that the Spanish
plane, Curatro Vientos, or four winds,
had crashed on La Malinche moun-
tain, that Lieut. Collar had been
killed, and that his companion was
seriously hurt. The Spanish ambassa-
dor declared, however, that the re-

NEW YORK? June 22.—
(P)— Charles E. Mitchell was

counts in the indictment
which charged him with in-

Jury which had heard the govern-

chairman of the National City bank,
had cheated the government in 1929
and 1930 of more than $850,000 in
income taxes, took the case st 11:25
a. m. Wednesday. It returned the
verdict a little more than 24 hours
later.
Sham Deals Charred
The charges against Mitchell, who
for many years was one of the most
powerful figures in the bsnklng world,
were that he had illegally failed to
