Van Wert Fanners Warned On Leases Van Wert county agent L. C. Holtkamp has warned falners in that area concerning leases for oil rights, since there are indications that there may be oil in that county. “Don’t sign a lease until it has been checked by your attorney,” he* warned. The usual annual rental is SI an acre, and competition may force an additional cash bonus for signing the lease. “Try to deal with the dominant lessee, because intermingled leases will delay the plans of all concerned. Avoid selling to an independent speculator, or a small promoter, as danger of failure is great. “Leases should be automatically canceling, so as not to cloud the land title,” he continued. “The attorney should check all bank references of the lessee. The customary share is oneeighth of the gross selling price of oil or gas, and usually is better than a flat rate per well. “Leases more favorable to the landowner use the phrase ‘commence drilling of a well’ by end of primary period in order to keep a lease in force. Avoid ‘dryhole’ clauses which allows a lessee to retain the lease for the rest of the term without paying rentals ’ or conducting additional drilling,” he warned. “Look for clauses to prevent drilling within a certain distance of buildings, to bury all pipelines below the plow depth, and pay for damaged crops and improvements such as tile and fence,” he concluded.

Ruby Family Fires Another Attorney DAT JAS *UPI) — The family of convicted killer Jack Ruby, two high - powered lawyers already behind them, look today for a new one who might save their brother frojn the electric chair. Percy Foreman of Houston, the best-known criminal lawyer in Texas, resigned from the case Monday in a dispute with the family. He was hired last week when Ruby personally fired Melvin Belli of San Francisco because of Belli’s tirade against Dallas and the court that convicted him. “You can call it a clash of personalities; a difference of opinion,” Foreman said. “My idea is that when a lawyer accepts responsibility for a man’s life, he ought not to have to share that responsibility with a civil lawyer or with a number of unlicensed relatives,” he added. Belli declined comment on Foreman’s quitting. Foreman’s friendly threepage letter of resignation was delivered to Ruby ip his cell lat the Dallas County Jail by Sheriff Bill Decker, it was Ruby’s 53rd birthday. Foreman was hired by Ruby’s brothers, Sam. Earl and Hyman, and sister Mrs. Eva Grant of Dallas and Mrs. Eileen Kaminski of Chicago. Sam Ruby said he was sorry

Viel Nam War May Boost Foreign Aid WASHINGTON (UPI) — Foreign aid director David E. Bell told Congress today that the war in Viet Nam might rush U.
