Production of Petroleum
Was Record Breaker, Gas
Price Investigators Find
BY associated Press

Washington, D. c., Dec. 30.-Pre-
liminary estimates of the geological
survey on the production of crude
petroleum in 1915, which are to be
used in connection with federal in
quiry into the cause of advancing
gasoline prices were made public to-
day by Secretary Lane and indicate
an increase of about two million bar
rels over last years output which with
a total production of about 290, ,000,-
900 barrels was a record breaker.
THE present year began with a
surplus of petroleum in field stor-
age said the report, 80 that pro-
duction of crude oil was not pushed.
Under these conditions the small in
crease in marketed production was
significant.
The supply in the United States
is not unlimited but the decline in the
country's output of crude oil has not
yet set in. The increase in stocks is
in itself a fairly conclusive rebuttal
of any price-boosting plea of present
shortage. Furthermore, the better
market for crude oil which charac-
terized the closing months of the
year has already somewhat stimulated
drilling activity which may contribute
to next years production"

Coal dealers in this city, although

the anthracite coal operators. due to

NO hint has been received here
about the attitude of the operators on
the question, but should raise in
price be included in the bill for jan
uary orders, the dealers will not be
surprised. A corresponding increase
Will then be placed on the retail price
of the coal.

are being supplied, they said to-day. at
the former rates. If. however this is
added. the same amount will be added
to the cost of the coal to the consumer
The advance in prices Is not eX-

Foresees Women as
Drug on Market Soon

Washington. Dec. 30.-Prof. Emily
G. Balch. of Wellesley College. told
tho American Sociological Society. in
annual conference here yesterday, that
one of the effects of war on the status
of women would be to make them "a
drug on the market.
1T may be that in more primitive
times" said she, such a situation
would be cause of polygamy. In our
day it will mean a vast overplus of
women. Men will return not only
with Importance enhanced by the glory
of the battlefield, but with a scarcity
value.
"A second and conflicting effect is
that women, being more necessary,
become more important instead of
less. A third effect will be a great in
crease of unmarried women. Another
result is that there is forming under
our eyes a new sex-international
Someone has said: IF the brother
hood of man had grown as much in the
last two centuries as the sisterhood of
woman has grown in the last two
decades, this war would not have oc-

WIRE SERVICE
BEING RESUMED
SLOWLY TODAY
Big Gang of Men Working
Night and Day 10 Repair
Breaks

Telephone and telegraph communi-
cations from this city 10 outside
points which were cut yesterday by
the rain and sleet were gradually re-
paired to-day, although service on
all lines was not resumed at a late
hour this afternoon.
Trouble shooters" for both tele-
graph and telephone companies
worked quickly on the breaks, but the
great number of disconnected lines
made it impossible for the men to
repair them in one day.
Service was resumed slowly on
some of the lines and even systema-
tic working on the repairs did not
bring quick relief because of the
trouble all over this section of the
country.
The Cumberland Valley Telephone
Company lines at noon had been
opened on the north and west trunks
