NEW PLAN TO SELL
OIL IS PROPOSED

Chronicle: On July 18th, the an
niversary of the battle of the Boyne.
the Independent Producers Agency
will hold a meeting for the purpose
Of deciding whether the original agree.
ment with the Union Oil Company
to market their product along certain
lines laid down at the outset of the
organization shall be perpetuated or
abrogated, and whether a new plan
shall be adopted to take the place
of the old. Whether the meeting
shall resolve itself into a Donny-
brook fair of Kilkenny cats, or wheth-
er harmony will be restored, no man
is able TO say. This is matter that
touches the pocket-the tenderest
spot in the commercial anatomy-and
sentiment will be at discount at the
meeting, Business will be the keynote
and facts will be sought rather than
words or elaborate and speciously
woven arguments.
The disaffection which recently
threatened to disrupt the organization
was intensified by the unpromising
condition of the oil market and the
Midway.
Charges were made by many of the
smaller operators that the Union Oil
Company had been guilty of Partially
toward the larger producers in the W ~
of the marketing arrangement, and
that the conditions under which it had
been agreed to pro rate the sales
worked unfairly as against the smaller
fry.
President L. P. St. Clair of the eX-
ecutive committee of the Independent
Oil Producers Agency has issued a
letter to members of the organization
dealing with the subject He begins by
stating that the committee has receiv-
ed requests from several members
for cancellation and return of the
contracts by which the Agency under
took the disposition of their oil. Their
reason for so doing is that the Agency
appears to be unable readily to dis
pose of their entire product. st. Clair
admits that this condition is due large
~ to the enormous increase in pro-
duction and inability to find market

Japan,s Navy Declining.

Japan's Navy Declining.
With the view held by so many men
OF experience and ripe Judgment IN
politics that Japan is preparing for
war with the United States as fast as
her financial position will permit, it is
hard, says the Globe, to reconcile the
fact that our ally in the Far East has
actually been dropping back in the
amount of warship tonnage construct.
ed and under construction during the
last two or three years. Realizing
this, there now appears to be a strong
desire on the part of some of her
statesmen to make a squirt that will
place the Mikados fleet in a better
position to cope with the work that
may possibly lie before it. This de-
sire rests rather more with the pro.
gressives than with the more moder-
ate politicians in Japan. That there
may be some connection between this
awakening and the fact that an order
has been placed in Great Britain for
d 27,000-ton battleship is possible, and
even probable, but it will take some
time, even with an accelerated pro
gram to restore her to the position
from which she has slipped back at a
time when her friends believed that
she was executing a secret program
which would result in her steadily
gaining ground instead of losing it, as
appears to be the fact. One of the
means to be adopted to compensate
for her decline in tonnage production
lin new construction is that of in
creasing the dimensions of battleships
and cruisers in her present program,
ii the most forward large navy" men
manage to get their way. Japan now
holds the fifth place among the navies
of the world. There are certainly in
building program may be a marked
feature of Japans naval policy at no
distant date, and a battleship carry
ing 14-in. guns is only the first indi-
cation of undoubted earnestness in
this direction. Her statesmen have
the will, and a financial way will be
found.
Commodore Filmer Is Grandfather.
San Francisco Call: There is prob
ably no other skipper in service on
the Pacific Ocean that manages to
make his arrivals at San Francisco
as appropriate as that of the veteran
Commodore w. E. Filmer who was
on the bridge of the japanese liner
! Nippon on her arrival two weeks ago
and will be in the same place today
when the liner sails for the Orient.
The Nippon arrived on June 29th,
and on July 10th at one o'clock p. m.
the commodore became a grandfather
for the second time in his experience.
On August 6, 1909, when the old salt

the hour of the ships arrival. Cap
