AT THE VICTORIA.

The Victoria Theatre showed the
V. l.. S. E. attraction, "The Law De-
cides." to crowded houses yesterday
that seemed to appreciate the moral
lesson taught in this newest Offering.
Dorothy Kelly. the charming ard
naive wife. wrongly accused by her
irate husband. who condemns with
out giving the girl a chance to ex-
plain, was very convincing. Harry
r. Morey played the role of the duped
husband very creditably. Donald
Hall, as the former lover, made up
the trio of stars that characterize this
highly interesting production, and
they. with the strong casl supporting
them. deserve high credit for their
admirable. artistic work The lesson
taught in THE Law Decides" is one
wherein it is shown how the folly of
greed for wealth and love denied has
wrecked many a home, and proves
that the smallest hut can harbor love
and contentment, where on the other
hand, wealth and envy will wreck the
greatest stronghold. "The Law De-
cides" is one of those plays that

AS to the fact that supply and de-
mand are the dominant factors in de-
termining the price Of gasoline. the
report makes It clear that the pro-
duction Of crude petroleum for 1915
steadily declined. In fact, the supply
OF manufactured gasoline on hand az
the end OF the year was about l,OOO,-
600 barrels less than in January.
This decrease is accounted for ON
the ground that no new oil fields have
been found in the United States. The
only other source of supply for us
is Mexico. but the oil producers can
not get the ships TO transport the
crude oil At the same time, Mexican
crude does not yield the proportion of

FEDERAL TRADE
COMMISSION REPORTS

The Federal Trade Commission has
made public figures which explain the
cause Of the present advance in price
of gasoline. In brief. the report ex-
plains that supply and demand alone
regulate the price OF the commodity.
A review of the statement says:
A lessening supply Of crude petrol
Gum and consequent decrease in
gasoline production is the plain rea-
son for the prevailing price Of gaso-
line.
This fact. which explodes several
current notions, is made clear by the
Federal Trade Commission, Which is
investigating prices and has just
made a statistical report to Congress
Explanations Many.
A variety of explanations have been
given Of the steady upgoing of the
price OF "gas," but the finding OF the
Trade Commission is the first authen-
ic information as to the actual cause.
Autoists who have to pay the price
are particularly interested in the
Trade Commissioners findings-it al
least sets them right as to why the
Jump. Some Of the more inquisitive
have recently written to the Standard
Oil Company asking why the price
keeps going up and never down.
