clared that there was much land witn-

commissioner's communication:
"You will take notice that all com

June 13 will revert to and be re-writ-
ten at the manual rate.
"Further until the State Insurance
commission shall have established and
promulgated its classifications of haz-
ards . and premium rates and policy
forms the classifications by the com-
missioner of insurance shall remain tn
effect.”

of the Legislature of a bill reappro-
priating the unexpended balance of the
31.356.006 appropriated by the Thirty-
seventh Legislature for land acquisi-
tion by the University of Texas will
make it unnecessary tor the attorney
general's department to pass on the
validity of the bonds executed by a
citizens' committee of Austin guaraiv
teeing the purchase of 135 acres ot
‘and adjacent to the university cam
pus for 31.356.000.
When the state directed the univer-
sity land acquisition board to discon-
tinue the purchase of land there weie
about 65 acres yet to be purchased.
This action on the part of the state
tended to cause the citizens’ committee
to hold the bond void. Now the pass-
age of this bill reappropriates about
3440.006 that being the unexpended
balance and the land acquisition boai«
is directed to complete the purchase of
the remaining <l5 acres. The bill also
provides that the $440000 shall be-
come available on the contingent that
the citizens' committee execute a new
bond. This new bond is to be execut
ed within 90 days after the act be-
comes effective. The governor has yet
to approve the bill.

Washington June 14.—Employment
for every prisoner in a federal pen-
itentiary was recommended today by
Ih’ber H. Votaw superintendent of
prisons to the special congressional
committee appointed to investigate
prison labor.
Mr. Votaw favored enlargement of
the cotton mills at the Atlanta prison

machinery Lt Leavenworth. However
he expressed opposition to the gov-
ernment entering into competition with
free labor in the open market with its
products and to the operation of farms
by prisoners which he said would give
only seasonal employment.
After examination of Mr. Votaw’ the
committee adjourned until October.

GAS IS STRONGER
IN RAYOR WELL
BUT MUDDED DOWN
Drillers Hope to Get Pro-
duction in Near Future
Below 2800 Feet.
Luling. Tex.. June 14.—Considerable
trouble is reported in M. O. Rayor's
No. 1 Walker in holding back a strong
gas pressure. Great quantities of mud
placed in the hole at 2800 feet arc
necessary to permit drilling. This
well is in the Georgetown and accord-
ing to Mr. Rayor is expected to en-
counter the pay at almost any min-
ute.
The Rayor well has been gassing
steadily since it encountered a small
oil sand at a depth of about 2735 feet
where casing was set. This'oil sand
was eased off in hopes of finding a
richer one when drilling several feet
deeper. Before reacning the depth of
2800 feet drillers of Mr. Rayor's no.
1 Walker report the pressure of gas is
increasing steadily and that consider-
able trouble is being experienced in
holding it back so that drilling may
be continued.
It is believed by drillers of this well
that they are nearing a rich oil sand
and is encountered with the present
gas pressure the result will doubtless
be a big well. Mr. Rayor says.
With the indications of n big well
in the Rayor there has been consider-
able lease trading around the Walker
tract. Wednesday several big denis
were made and from all indications
there will be an extensive drilling pro-
gram launched with the bringing in of
the No. 1 Walker.
It is reported that the Magnolia Pe- I
troleum Company lias acquired 20h'
acres between the S. A. & A. P. and
the S. P. railroads east of Luling
where it will establish a tank farm.
Hain and Towns are reported to be
shipping n rig to the field where they
will drill on the Merriwether lease.
They hake a derrick up and drilling
operations probably will begin at once.
Paul Rogers of the Royal Oil Com-
pany announced Wednesday that his
company would spud in its No. 2 Ta-
bor offestting its No. 1 some time next
week.
HARRY LANDA LIKES
VALLEY AND HE MAY
EXTEND ROAD THERE
Makes Trip in Interest of
Possible Railroad Connec-
tion With Point Isabel.
Tlip Rio Grande Valley possesses all
the advantages and none of the dis-
advantages of California according to
Harr;*’ Landa president of the San
Antonio Southern Railroad. He has
just returned from the valley. It is
contemplated extending the San An-
tonio Southern Railroad to this ter-
ritory.
*’l was very much surprised when I
got down there. I hnd no idea that;
the valley was so beautiful and neither |
did I have any idea that the possibi- 1
ities were so great. Why ; n a few
years from now that country will be
the greatest cotton center in the
South; it will b- the greatest geve-
tabe raising country in America; and
it will be one of the greatest fruit
raising centers” said Mr. Landa. I
Regarding the extension of the rail-1
road Mr. Landa declined to make a '
statement. His favorable impression '
of the country however is expected to
be a point in favor of the exten-'
sion.
Mr. Landa in company with H. A.
Briscoe general manager of the rail-'
road arrived in the valley last Fri-’
day afternoon. Mr. Landa made the '
statement that provided sufficient in- '
terest i’ tak<*n by residents of the'
valley the San Antonio Southern will ■
extend its line into the Rio Rrande
Valley and make connections with •
Point Isabel.
Mr. Landa declared that he was very I
favorably impressed with the possibi-
lities of the development of Point Isa-
bel and that eventually it wil become i
the most imnortnnt port in the South
prinripaly because of its proximity
to Mexico ami because it is located in ।
the center of what is to become one ]
of the greatest agricultural centers in !
the country.

NOTE WRITING STOPS
Brief Mes«ne From British to Reds
Ends Ix»ng Correspondenre.
IG the A.*oelated rress.
IxmdiHi June 14. —A brief ><>te from
the British government delivered to
Leonid Krassin the Russian Soviet
representative brings to an end the
long eorrespondenee. beginning with
Lord Curzon’s ultimatum and termi-
nates the dispute between Great
Britain and Russia which at one time
seriously threatened a rupture of the
trade agreement between the two
countries.
That this has been avoided is con
sidered largely due to M. Krassin’s
diplomatic tact. That the British gov-
ernment now considers the incident
closet! is seen in the fact that it is-
sued to Parliament last night an of-
ficjal record of the whole correspon-
dence including the last note.
Russia yielded on many points in-
cluding withdrawal of the offensive
Weinstein notes granting co npensa-
tion to the seized trawlers and in the
Harding and Davison cases and permit-
ting fishing rights within the ewelve-
mile limit. On the question of Soviet
propaganda a compromise has been
reached.
