GOVERNOR'S PLANS STIR UP OKLAHOMA Executive Formally An- nounces for Senate and Hits Farm-Labor League. By the Assoclated Press. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, July 26 —Gov. J. C. Walton's formal an- nouncement that he will be a candi- date for the democratio nominatlon for United State senator I3 awalted as the next move In the kaleldo- scople events which have wrought a complete transformation In Okla- homa politics within the last few days. Dolng an “about fac tive has cast aside the Farmer-Labor Reconstruction League, the organi- zation that nominated and eleoted him on the demooratio ticket year. He also has moved his hq hold to Muskoges, in the of the state, where a legal would be required by the precedse! in, Jeking “the "senatorial race in 4. Surrounded by political advisers who are announced for and of the Reconstruction League, & plan has been laid by the governor to sup- plant the league as the political mouthpiece of the state farmer-labor movement. Council to Meet August 1. uncil of twelve, composed of and labor leaders selected governor, has been summoned to meet on August 1 and assume direction of the larmer-labor move- ment until such me, the executive explained, as the rank and file may make their votes heard through duly selected representatives. The break with the Reconstruc- tion League came definitely yester- day when the governor signed an order removing two league members of the state board of agriculture so that George Wilson could be ousted as president of Oklahoma A. and M . College. “ Wilson, who_has been the storm center of the Walton administration since his appointment June 1, will be removed at a meeting Agricultural board Friday to President John A. Wh “Bows to” American Legion. In gigning the warant for Wilson's removal the executive bowed to the demand of the Oklahoma department of the American Leglon, which was .pledged to unceasing war on the col- lege head and to Insistent clamor from many other quarters. Wilson formerly was a non-parti- san loague worker in North Dakota and the moving splirit in the conven- tion at Shawnee, Okla., in 1922, when the Farmer-Labor Reconstruction League of Oklahoma was born. Gov. Walton had consistently stood behind the new college presi- dent, urging that he be given a “chance,” until the break came yes- terday. But the league will fight for its place as “the sole political volcs of the organized farmers and workers of Oklahoma,” J. Luther Langston, state manager of the organization announced in taking up the guage of battle. Attacks Governor's Profect. Attacking the governor's project for “a council of twelve,” Lang:ton declared that the farmers and work- ers would not “fall” for the scheme. “This council of twelve is nothing but the last desperate atempt to de- stroy the Farmer-Labor Reconstruc- tion League and it ts doomed to fail- ure,” said Langston. Wilson, who hurried to Oklahoma City last night to confer with Lang- ston and other league chiefs, would not comment on the turn of events His friends, however, were preaict- ing that the Reconstruction Lesgue convention would endorse him next vear for United States senator. Summer Days For the hot, humid days that make vour feet swell and burn, Cantilever Shoes are a ‘welcome relief. Cantilever Shoes are pat- terned from the natural out- line of the foot. The result is such absolute comfort that you are never conscious that Cantilever Shoes touch the foot at any point. Good eir- culation keeps the feet from swelling in hot weather. There is ample toe room. The inner sole line, which fol- lows the line of the foot, al- lows the toes to point straight ahead in their natural posi- tion. The heel of Cantllever Shoes is eslightly tiited; it tends to distribute the weight evenly. The flexible shank is drawn up when the shoe is laced so that it meets and supports the arch of the foot at every point, The flexibility of the shank allows the muscles to exercise freely, which strengthéns the arch muscles and prevents fallen arches, Try “Cantilever Shoes for 6ur summer foot. troubles. ou will l{ke thefr good looks and their refreshing comfort.

THE EVENING STAR, Great, Active Horned Alligator, Says Hunter of Lake Monster By the Associated Press. OMAHA, Neb.. July 26.—By far the most vivid pleture of actlons and ap- pearance of the monster which for about' three vears has terrified tour- tsts, fishermen, farmers and others in the vlelnity of Big Alkall Lake, near Hay Bprings, Neb, was recelved by the Omaha World-Herald today from J. A Johnson, who signed his resi: dence as Hay Bprings. “I maw the monster myself while with two friende last fall” Johnson's communlcation stated in deseribing the monater, "I could hame forty other persons wha have alse seen the brute, But owing to itd apparent proference to nights, and apparently dark nights, few have had’ as good a view as 1" In telllng of his experiences, the Seen in Early Morning. “We had camped & short dlstance trom the lake on the night before and all three of us arose early to be ready for the early duck filght.
