GUSHING
MAN SEES
BOOM COMING
BANKER RYBERG SAYS WAR
HAS BEEN A BLESSING
IN DISGUISE
Special to Daily Leader.

Especial to Daily Leader
Gushing, Okla. Feb "a. Vice
President Ryberg of the Oklahoma
Estate bank, and president of the
ICushing chamber Of commerce, said
to-day that bankers everywhere, so far
as he kaew, were growing more op-
timistic and were extending liberal
credits to manufacturers and whole
sale firms. He said the European
war effect on business today was a
| thing OF the past, and predicted that
by July 4th the business of this coun-
try would not only return to normal,
but far exceed in volume any previous
year in the history of the country
with the adjournment of congress
and the legislatures Of the several
states, business will boom as never
before. The cruel war with its dis
|astrous effects upon American bust
ness will prove to be blessing in
disguise, but it took business quite a
while to adjust itself to such unusual
conditions. Now that we have
reached the top of the hill we will
find the road easier to travel, and
predict unusual business activity for
the remaining year, and possibly for
several years to come.
"Our numerous oil refiner,ies
handling about 10000 barrels OF crude
daily, are running at full capacity, and
from the inquiries received almost
daily from capitalists in distant cities,
| should say it will not be long until
Gushing would be refining upwards
of 100000 barrels of crude oil every
"a hours These refineries are all
connected with the production by pipe
lines, but since large concern is
figuring on locating by-product
plant, it is quite possible thai union
pipe line will be built to supply a |
dozen or more refineries with high
grade oil.
Locally. our business conditions
could hardly be better. 1t is true that |
several hundred tank builders are out
On strike, yet there are thousands of
men employed in the nearby oil field |
At excellent wages. On the whole
Cushing is in excellent financial con-
iition and everybody is optimistic"
concluded the banker.

EUROPE CAUSE DELAY

Washington, D. G., Feb. 24.--The
United States has temporarily post
poned the decision on what the
country's policy should be in con-
nection with the negotiations be-
tween Japan and China. Pressure oi
the present more important European
situation caused the postponement.
Thus far, it was stated today au-
thoritatiyely, no representations or
notes have been sent ny the United
States to Japan or China, or any OF
THE interested powers. although Am
bassador Guthrie at Toxic and Min

and the version given to the same
powers by the Chinese Foreign Of

The diplomatic representatives OF
the United states have not been IN
structed to discuss the matter offic-
tally with either Japan or China, hut

is the basis Of negotiations.

been comparing the demands furnish
ed by China and those submitted by|
Japan to the United States, find that
the former list contained twenty -one

Physical culture stunts and rub-on

will make them fat. Yet their, case
Is not hopeless. A recently discover
ed regenerat.re force makes fat grow
after years of thinness, and is also
unequalled for repairing the waste OF
sickness or faulty digestion and sor
Strengthening the nerves. This re-
markable discovery is called Sargol.
Six strength giving. fat-producing ell

been combined in this peerless prep
arat.on. which is endorsed By emin-
ent physicians and used by promi-
nent people everywhere. IL is abso-
-sltely harmless. inexpensive and ef-
ficient
A months systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is
obtained from the food eaten. and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. A,l leading druggists
supply Sargol and say there Is large

While this new preparation has
given splendid results as a nerve
tonic and vitailzer, il should not be |
used by nervous people unless they |
wish to gain at least ten pounds OF |
