The farm bloc, however, does not admit that Fess' onslaught has killed the bill's prospects, and this group today was seeking to reorganize its battle lines with the assistance of the new farmers' champion, Vice President Dawes.

Dawes was called into conference by Senator Watson, Republican, Indiana, who, since his victory in Indiana, primaries has grown constantly more anti administration in his position on farm relief. Though Dawes was taking a tion on farm relief quite opposed to President Coolidge, and though the Iowa primary has modified some anti-farm relief spirit here, the White House announces that it still opposes the equalization fee plan, because of. the reform posed by the Dawes Watson ment.

There have been few cases in history where the government has spent so much money and patience in running down a band of criminals. Cause of the Osage "reign of terror" was an a act passed gress in 1922. Without warning the Indian title to oil and gas rights, reverting to the land in 1931, was extended to revert in 1946.

Unprincipled men had spent years obtaining surface rights Indian lands in expectation that the rights would revert to them in 1931. When the time was extended to 1946, these men found themselves "holding the sack," and the word went out, "Kill, Kill, Kill." 20 Indians Die Over 20 wealthy Indians died mysterious deaths before the U. S. awoke to the "reign of terror." The entire W. Smith family at Fairfax was marked for death.

When government agents began their investigation possible witnesses in the Osage were so cowed they would not talk. The first U. S. probe did not result in any convictions. Six months later Edwin Brown, U.

S. attorney from Washington, was sent to the Osage to re-open it. Ten secret service men were put under his charge and at times as high as 30 worked on the case. For another six months they worked in the Osage, and then came the Federal Grand Jury which indicted Hale and Ramsey. Federal Judge Cotteral twice dismissed indictments against the two, last time because he believed the U.

S. had no jurisdiction. The U. S. Supreme.

Court recently reversed his decision. How the government agents worked in their Osage dragnet never will be entirely known to the public. The state filed murder charges largely on evidence gathered by federal operatives. Many have likened the Osage murder ring to the Italian Mafia, famous blackmail organization which marked people death and then made them pay for their lives. Some of Detectives Operatives who spent their full time in solving the Osage murders are F.

Lange. The secret service men attribute Burkhart's confession the fact that the government just wore him out in the trial. After the trial had progressed 14 days he appeared haggard and nervous. Seeing that conviction was dent, he broke down and confessed. BRAZIL BREAKS WITH LEAGUE Wants Permanent Seat; Otherwise Through Sept.

20 By United Press GENEVA, June will not continue as a non-permanent member of the League of Nations council after September, Mello Franco, the Brazilian council member, announced today. Mello Franco intimated that Brazil may await the final of the committee on re-organization of the league council before finally admitting that a permanent seat is an impossible aspiration. The precise scope of the Brazilian declamation is not ciear, but it seems to mean merely that Brazil would decline to occupy a permanent council seat after September. It would not be willing to withdraw from the League of Nations, to announcement vacate a puts council seat. Brazil's, future status in the League of Nations up the league itself.

The league meets in September and it will be possible then to make Brazil a permanent member of the council, which is what Brazil desires.
