rates. II has shown steady growth
and has become q business OF largo
magnitude. Few people realize the
importance that the independent roe
filming industry sustaIus to the pro-
duction Of oil. Not only do the ok
hhoma rcfinors draw their supply Of
crude from Okluhoma producers, but
the Kansas rofincrs also have to come
to Oklahoma for their crude, us the
production I'm Kansas has ceased to
be of any Importance The Kansas
rcf.norlos that use oklahoma crude

NO "AD" FOR ELECTION, CITY
CAN'T GET ITS LIGHT PLANT.
City Council Says II Will Hold
City Clerk Responsible.

BURLINGTON, Aug 31.-Because
the proper authorities failed to adver-
tise the special election on a municipal
light, heat and power plant, ordered
by common council for September 6,
citizens of Burlington will be deprived
of the privilege of registering their
sentiment on municipal ownership.
Councilman Charles M. Scholey, ag-
gressive leader in the campaign for
municipal ownership of a street light
ing plant, declared yesterday that re-
sponsibility for advertising the cleo
ton rests upon city Clerk Thomas S.
Mooney.
Politicians opposing municipal owner
ship said last night that City Clerk
Mooney will make the claim that he
had legal advice to the effect that the
Scholey resolution was technically at
fault, as an excuse for not calling a
municipal ownership election. Coun
cilmen say that If any such legal
opinion was received they should have
been notified at once, but they knew
of nom

He Crossed Frontier and Visited
Young Woman in Switzer-
land, 1t Is Said.

PARIS, Aug. 31.-Has Katherine FL
k.ns, daughter Of the late multi-mil-
liCnaire senator from West Virginia,
made up with her duke2 +.
Paris thinks so. At least Paris hears
that the Duke of Abruzzi, when Miss
Elkins, her mother and brother, were
stopping recently at a Swiss resort
near the Italian border, left his nava
post at Venice one evening, was gone
two days, and declined, upon his re-
turn, to tell where he had been. 1t is
reported that he crossed the frontier
in an automobile and had a long visit
with Miss Elkins.
1t has been supposed that the dukes
ccurtship had ended with the death Of
Senator Elkins. but seemingly the ad-
venturous Abruzzi had an irresistible
longing to see again the woman who
had won his heart. The picture shows
the duke in his Observation-Disclosures
tcgs. He has scaled several of the
highest peaks in Europe.

INCREASE COST
IN TRUNK SEWER
PLAN APPROVED
Common Council Finance Conn
mittee Authorizes Signing
of Contract.

Mayor Haussling and the Common
Council will be empowered with the
right to execute a supplementary con-
tract with other municipalities for the
construction of the Passaic trunk
sewer If a resolution adopted by the
finance committee of the Common
Council is carried at the council meet
ing tomorrow night. Newark's share
in the cost of the giant sewer has in
creased from Sc, $50, 900 to $7,173,535 n
der the provisions of the new contract.
City Counsel James r. Nugent ex-
planned the increase was due to the
refusal of five municipalities 10 enter
the sewer plan.
After requesting information regard
ing the duties of a committee in charge
of the paving question, Alderman
Congleton declared that every member
of the Board of Works who voted for
bitulithic pavement for Market street
did so with an apology. 81 believe
that granite blocks, closely grouted,
would be the best for this street, = con-
tinued the alderman, land l will GER
tainly refuse to sign any resolution
providing for the issue of temporary
loan bonds to pay for this work" The
duties Of the committee will be out
lined in ar opinion by City Counsel MI
gent at the next meeting.
The secretary of the committee was
instructed to prepare a resolution APP
propriating the necessary funds to de-
