WALTON THREATENS
PRESS CENSORSHIP
MUSKOGEE, Okla., Sept. 14.—Censorship of the press, Governor J. C. Walton's latest step in his campaign to "clean up" Oklahoma was in effect today in Tulsa and was threatened here.
"We have a man in the Tulsa Tribune to see that everything that goes into that paper is censored and we contemplate doing the same to the Muskogee Phoenix, if it becomes necessary" Dr. A. E. Davenport, state health commissioner, announced, speaking for the governor.
With the installation of censorship for the press, the resignation within 24 hours of W. R. Sampson, grand exalted cyclops of Muskogee Klan No. 3 was demanded by the governor through Davenport. Failure to comply with the demand will mean an order for the extension of martial law to Muskogee he said.
TULSA, Okla., Sept. 14.—The most drastic martial law orders ever known in any state were promised Tulsa by Governor J. C. Walton today if the Chamber of Commerce does not demand the resignation of the sheriff, police commissioner and jury commission.
The chamber promised him an answer today.
In conference last night with men said to be leaders of the state Ku Klux Klan, H. O. McClure, president of the chamber, called upon them to "take charge of the cleanup campaign to rid the city of a condition they are charged with bringing about."
The klansmen are said to have taken his appeal under consideration and advised him they would make a reply some time today.
TULSA, Sept 14.—An injunction in U. S. courts will be sought to prevent Governor Walton from interfering in the operation of the Tulsa Tribune, according to a statement by owners today.

TAKE ORANGE SHOW TO N. Y.—Ringling
Charles Ringling of Ringling Bros. circus is ready to aid in giving the east a peep at what the California Valencia and National orange shows are like, he declared in an interview. His show will be at Madison Square Garden, New York, Feb. 16-24. It is now showing in Los Angeles.
While I am a Florida booster on account of my interests there," said Ringling. "I am glad to say that I am also a great believer in the Golden West, and I only hope that some progressive Californians will follow my lead and take the San Bernardino Navel Orange Show and the Anabeima Valencia Orange show to New York.
By letting the east know what the two states are doing our future program of co-operative marketing will be greatly helped. You know, as a circus man, I am a great believer in advance work, and if I can do anything to help California to stage one of its shows in the east I will be pleased to give any suggestions and moral support to the movement."
"I was much interested when I met the California citrus growers' party at the South Florida Fair last February," he said yesterday. "And I had a long talk with Col. George C. Roeding, who was the chairman of that party.
"I believe that it is not long distant when the two states will be compelled to adopt some measures leading to a better method of marketing, and am gratified to note that steps along this line are under consideration by the leaders in the citrus industry in both the west and the south.
"California has shown the world what can be done in the matter of standardizing varieties, and Florida can learn an excellent lesson right here. They should cut out very many of the varieties they raise in the south and center on a few seasonable types of oranges and grapefruit that would give them a long marketing season and a fruit that is uniform in texture and size and quality.
"It will not be so far in the future when the annual production of citrus fruits in Florida will equal that of California. The last year's crop there was about 16,000,000 boxes and this will increase considerably in a few years, as many young groves are soon to come into bearing, and plantings have been going on most extensively during the last five or six years.
"Also the entire northwestern strip of the state has made progress."

Taking exception to a story yesterday in which he was quoted as saying that radio concerts would soon be a thing of the past, Dr. J. E. Waters today issued the following statement:
Anaheim, Calif., Sept. 14, 1923.
The Plain Dealer:
Radio Broadcasting of News, Music, and other entertainment, which a few years ago was first undertaken in Los Angeles by a considerable number of second rate broadcasting stations, has practically simmered down to two first class stations, the programs of which are gradually becoming more inferior as material suitable for broadcasting becomes harder to obtain. The benefits accruing to those financing the broadcasting stations are not great, whereas the initial investment in such a station runs into many thousands of dollars and the expense of maintenance is so great that only large institutions such as the large publishing companies, etc., can afford them.
Entertainers are becoming more difficult to obtain, as their time has heretofore been given gratuitously, and it is probable that before long their services will have to be paid for. In addition, a large broadcasting station in the east is now being sued to compel payment of royalties on copyrighted music broadcasted from their station. Some foreign countries have already found it necessary to license receiving sets to maintain the broadcasting stations. It is not, therefore, unreasonable to predict that, in the comparatively near future broadcasting will resolve itself into one large station only in a locality, sufficiently powerful to reach reliably all territory between it and the stations which supply adjacent territory. This will permit a concentration of all that is bost in one station, eliminate interference with each other's programs, and minimize investment and expenses of maintenance.
Leading at if the new force over arrives for it is bad will prevail teners as mutateurs are due that the man 'interference noisy receivecial spark teaching state and fig how broadcast re permitted in which forced listeners ofters and rai which receptive This results other fellow mences to c.

and cannot remain up late enough to work after 10:30 p.m., and are therefore eliminated so far as their greatest interest in radio is concerned, that interest being long distance communication.
Leading amateurs doubt very much if the new regulations remain in force over any great length of time, for it is believed that interference will prevail among the broadcast listeners as much as ever after the amateurs are quiet, cwing to the fact that the majority of that so-called "interference by amateurs" is static, noisy receiving apparatus, commercial spark telegraph stations, battery-charging stations, and worst of all and far more common, single-circuit broadcast receivers, which are still permitted in the United States and which forced to the limit as broadcast listeners often do, become transmitters and radiate on the wave or, which reception was being attempted. This results in a "squeal" in the other follow's receiver, and he commences to cuss that "amateur".

COOLIDGE PROBES ANTHRACITE PRICES
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—President Coolidge has ordered the federal trade commission and the United States Coal Commission to investigate anthracite prices all over the country with a view to eliminating profitering in hard coal; it was announced officially at the White House late today.
The purpose of teh investigations is to work out a method of facilitating movement of coal direct from the mines to the consumers.
While the government is moving to prevent profiteering, th administration also expects fullest co-operation of local and state authorities in this enterprise. In the final analysis, the president feels, profiting can best be eliminated by local authorities, who are more conversant with the needs and conditions of their communities.
It was pointed out that it would be difficult for the federal government to reach out in New York or Ohio, for instance, and say how business should be conducted, and what prices should be considered fair and just, but that this can be done by local officers.
The spokesman further said that the recommendations of the commission will depend largely upon public opinion for making the anti-profiteering suggestions effective.
The federal trade commission also will seek to ascertain if trade practices in the hard coal industry violate anti-trust laws.
