Icke3 today fined the Utah Oil Refining Co., Salt LakejCity, $5UO for building a pipeline across the public domain between Fort Laramie, Wyo., and Salt Lake City without obtaining his approv al in advance. Jckes said that the company's action was not an intentional violation of the 1935 federal gas and oil leasing act which requires his approval for7, pipelines over public domain. He added that he now will approve the application for the right of way. It was the first action of its kind under the act.v -, Contract Last July The company had obtained a contract for oil last July from the Lance Creek field in Wyoming, which is under the public domain. In August It applied for permis sion to build a pipeline over 140 miles of public domain. Before approval ap-proval of the application, the company com-pany constructed the pipeline. "No one has the right to appropriate ap-propriate public lands for private use without specific statutory authority au-thority so to do and then in strict compliance with the terms of the statutes and regulations," Ickes said. "Although there wa3 careless 'wrong doing in this case, the application ap-plication will not be denied because be-cause of the trespass committed. However, the facts do warrant the imposition of appropriate conditions condi-tions to the granting - of the application ap-plication which will indemnify the United States."-' Ickes said that approval of the application, is in the interest to the public of Utah and Wyoming. Ilental Ffcted In addition to the $500 fine the company was ordered to pay $620 as annual rental in advance for the right of way. The rental payments pay-ments begin as cf last August when the pipeline was constructed. Ickes announced that oil and gas prospectors on the public domain do-main no longer will be required to furnish $1,000 bonds as a condition con-dition to issuance of federal leases. . Under previous regulations, the bond was required primarily to secure payment to the federal government gov-ernment of yearly rentals under leases. The first year's rental is paid in advance and the new regulations provide that submission submis-sion of the bond may be deferred until 90 days prior to the due date of the rental payment. The new regulations, however, provide that tiling of the bond may" now"be deferred" from year to year if annual rentals are paid DO days in advance of the due date, thus permitting lessees not to post the bond if tney pay, their annual rental in advance. Ickes emphasized . that .the regulation was designed to relieve re-lieve prospects who found difficulty dif-ficulty in raising ihe bond but noted : that it doe3 not relieve lessees from the obligation to furnish fur-nish a $3,000 general bond before beginning to drill.

John ;Rv Edwards, state and local Workers Alliance officer, whose "suspension" was recently ordered by a state executive board, won support from the members of the Provo local, at a meeting Friday night. With only one dissenting vote, the members present voted to continue Mr. Ed wards as president of the Provo local. 3tlr. Edwards presented his own case after the action of the state board in voting his suspension had been defended by Grant Ottley, Murray, Who succeeded Mr. Edwards Ed-wards as state ; president and Wallace Talbot of Sandy, former state president. Carl Hope, vice chairman, was in charge. According- to Mr. Edwards, the whole trouble is that the ProvV delegation has dominated the state conventions during the past few years because of greater paid up membership in this country. Mr. Edward3 presented a letter from WPA district officials to the effect tha he did not solicit the appointment of foreman for the Provo school grounds improve ment project. During his service as foreman fie carried out ' the rules and regulations of the WPA and performed his work in a satisfactory satis-factory manner, according to' the three officials who signed the letter, let-ter, Carl Simmons, supervisor of assignments; R. G. Heath,- zone engineer and Lloyd A. Conyers, senior engineer. . The action taken by the , membership mem-bership Friday, probably means that Mr. Edwards will continue as president of the Provo local, at least until the next regular election elec-tion in January. In the meantime he will press action for a referendum refer-endum of all the locals in the state regarding his displacement as president of the state organization. organiza-tion. . - :7 ' V Manganese Ore To Be Stored At Ogden WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 - IIE The treasury has issued its second sec-ond invitation for bids for manganese man-ganese - ore which the government govern-ment is accumulating under the program to .store strategic war materials.
