(By tnlted Nm) Washlnrtoii,' Feb. 1. The proirresslv elementn the senate will lone a leader with i tb departure xf William S. Ken vnn. vbd la nnw a fdrml ciiicntt lude. The agricultural bloc will Xbne one of It moat uncompromising members and pernapa 11a principal leader. Since Kenyon entered the aenat in .1911 he has ben an outstanding figure. . Tnere will be a . distinct gap when he iroea to the bench. Kenyon haa ben consistently "un- reralar" and is one of the few men In the senate who have had the courage - to differ openly and emphatically with party leaders. He has spoken his mind and where principle and party clashed. . party was forsaken. He commanded uni . vet sal respect among his colleagues, even among those with whom he differed most violently. , TALKED OF FOR PRESIDENT ' . The realms of politics will lose a Tig ur whose prominence Would have In creased continually. Already there' was talk that Kenyon would be put forward a a presidential candidate In 1924 to oppose President Harding. The talk Increased as the administration's dis approval of the farm bloc became more apparent and more pronounced. Ken- yoti was somewhat of a malcontent and something of an iconoclast, but he was not an extremist. And tie had the sav Inf. grace of humor, which Is not common thing among objectors. He was gifted with no great ability M an orator, yet he commanded at ten tion when tie spoke from the senate . floor. : ' His denunciation against the seating of Senator Newberry was almost a classic. It was tvplcal of his attitude on other questions. His fight to retain high sur tax also was typical. So the rather ret"ulous "progressive win)?" among the ,: Republicans Is weakened. There are many In the capital who are sorry and , a few In the senate. Kenyon haa his ear close to the xrans roots and he spoke a language that the man in. the street knew and understood. HARDING'S MOTIVK SEEN Senator Pat Harrison. ; Democrat of . Mississippi, and chief mixer of political medicine for the minority, gave voice to a theory from the floor of the senate that will receive credence in some quar ters. He declared that President Hard ing offered Kenyon the judgeship to break upthe agricultural bloc. Nobody, of coursA, knows if this is true. But , Kenyon's friends say he had wearied s of public life and of service in the sen ate Which many an outstanding figure before him has done, and some believe that maybe Kenyon was not a fighter by Instinct, although- he fought. 'It will take a great amount of ex planation to remove that feeling," eald Harrison. "In the' West, the farmers, whose eyes are riveted on congress, will wonder If it wasn't the desire of the administration to rid the senate of the leader of the agricultural bloc when It selected Senator Kenyon to be a federal Judge." But, he added, "I don't blame Kenyon for leaving this body." WASTED JI DUKSHIP Kenyon had wanted to take a judge ship when one was offered him some time ago.- But there was some con fusion at that time over questions of patronage, and in addition other senators wanted him to contlnae his work as a legislator. Kenyan and Senator Cum mings, also from Iowa, were unable to . ag'ee on a Judge, however, and the re guf of the deadlock Vs Kenyon's nom ination. While a "progressive." Kenyqn never nu i member of that party. He sup ported CTaft In 191;!. 'although he had first gained prominence as a special 'attorney for the department of justice under Roosevelt : he was a "trist buster." It was characteristic of the?rnan that he remained a staunch friend -of Roose velt. Cummlngs In that election sup ported the new party, which had out a candidate against Kenyon.

''" AT ARCTIC CIRCLE By Clayton Whltehlll Cnited Kevi Staff Cormpondttit Washington, ,Feb. 1. Locked be neath the tablelands of Northern Alaska, near the Arctic circle, are thought to be vast reservoirs of petroleum which may lurmsn mture generauons with oil as the supplies now being utilized diminish. Recent Investigations In the northern wilderness have brought conviction that a great oil reservoir lies on the public domain. The matter lately has received the personal attention of Secretary of the Interior Fall and he has discussed the proposition with President Harding and his cabinet. Leading oil companies have become Interested and projects for exploitation are now being considered. President Harding. In his conference with news paper men at the White House. Tuesday, said an announcement would be made shortly of the discovery of natural re sources hitherto unknown. It was to Alaskan oil that he referred. DISTRICT UNEXPLORED The chief obstacles to getting out the oil. of course, have been placed by na ture. The region Is hundreds of miles to the north of the northernmost rail way. Much of it is unexplored. While It has a spring and summer, the warm periods are brief and the winters are bitterly cold. However, the tundra country . of .Alaska is more hospitable than the glacial steppes of Northern Si beria. Ocean currents temper the cold. "Already oil companies have prospect d this region," Governor Scott C Bon. told the United News in an exclusive Interview. Bone Is in Washington on his annual official visit. : . . . . . . . . . .-. v. .:... :... .-.-.. ::-.- ".nri lL-yF tJi j ; ! .

The cash register at the Elk? clubroom was rifled by bur glars and between $555 and $60 taken. Checks were left;- -but emblems were stolen. "As yet the exploitation of this field has not gone beyond the prospecting stage. . but: geologists are coming back with news of oIL 4 '. "Members of the United States geo logical survey have prospected there within the last year, and they bring back similar news of oiL . "The Standard Oil company baa stak ed some of the country and I understand & Pacific Coast company plans to epend $3,000,000 in prospecting this coining summer." This treasure country, according to Governor Bone, lies about 500 miles north of Fairbanks, the terminal point of the Seward-Fairbanks government railroad and extends probably to Point Barrow on the Arctic coast. INDICATIONS ENCOURAGE Government investigators have found seepage 'oil over a wide area and this fact, coupled with knowledge of the structural formation, has led them to believe petroleum exists there in large quantities and tHat the country1, is worth further and more Intensive exploration. The government report further acknow ledges exploitation of a petroleum resi due near Smith bay, 100 miles southeast oi roini narrow, wnere several large seepages were disclosed. "The climate allows nearly three months of work a year in a temperature approaching 70 degrees and at no time during the winter does the temperature fall below 40 degrees below ' aero," said ; Bone. ! "In short the climate is similar to that of Minnesota and North Dakota. This mildness is due to the ocean winds sweeping the coast The Interior of Al aska is far colder. "Therefore the working of these po tential oil treasures is entirely feasible "Transportation, however, is another matter. A pipe line alone can solve that problem ' and I think Is possible to lay pipes on the ground to the coast. From there the oil could be conveyed by steamer." TO INSURE TRANSPORTATION With Bone is Colonel Frederick Mears, United States army, who built the Sew-ard-Fairbanks railroad.
