CHRISTIANITY GODS
HIGHEST REVELATION
This is True. Says Rev. j. l.. Gardi-
ner. Because Spoken Through
Jesus Christ.

christianity is Gods highest and
best revelation to the children of
men, said DR.. James L. Gardiner
in his sermon yesterday morning at
the St. Paurs Memorial Methodist
Episcopal church.
Or. Gardiner was speaking on the
text, God. who in sundry times and
divers manners spake in time past
unto the fathers by the prophets,
hath in these last days spoken unto
us by His Son"
"Our text sets forth the fact that
God spoke unto the fathers by the
prophets. Read the Old Testament
The prophets were men who knew
God. They were preachers of right
eousness. They were men who were
moved by the Holy Ghost.
But our text also reveals the fact
that God has spoken unto us by and
through His Son. Jesus Christ. Jesus
was the worlds greatest teacher. In
the realm Of religion He stands
alone. He is a solitary star. Other
great teachers OF religion there
were. but we would not think for a
moment Of comparing them with
Him who 'spake as never man
spake'
The revelations that came
through Jesus. place His religion on
higher plane than that OF any
ether religion. Take for example His
doctrine of God No other teacher
ever revealed 10 US the true char
acter OF God.
"Other teachers said that God was
omnipOtent. They said He was ON

THE RISE OF GASOLINE
By Frederic J. Haskin.

The. price of gasoline has suddenly
leaped into prominence as a national
problem. Motorists are paying twice
as much for a gallon as they did a
year ago. The federal trade commits
sion may be called upon to investigate
or else a congressional committee will
probe the situation. Experts of the oil
companies say they would not be sur
prised II the price went to 35 cents in
the near future. The reason for the
rise is apparently shrouded in mys-
terry. A dozen theories are advanced,
and meantime the man with the auto
or gas engine continues to pay the bill.
The cost of gasoline affects the whole
country to an extent that few people
realize. The day when the auto was
rich mans toy is long past. The
motors of the United States have
passed the 100000 mark by several
hundred thousand--in other words
about 100000 people make daily use
of them IN some form or other. The
grocer delivers cabbages in an auto
truck, the farmer plows with an auto
tractor. Besides the motor cars there
are almost million gasoline engines
in the country. driving the belts of a
thousand industries. pumping water in
the barren plains of the west, saving
wood, baing hay. thrashing grain. Any
change in the price of gasoline fuel Is
reflected in every one Of a hundred diff
ferent quarters. -, ., .g.......I ....-
Why is the price Of gasoline rising,
despite enormous production? Is it be-
cause the administration has proposed
a reyenue tax Of l cent gallon on
gasoline and the oil men want to show
the country that the industry cannot
carry=it? Or Is 1t due to the storage of
millions of barrels of crude oil by the
interests that control its distribution?
Both OF these explanations have been

FRENCH STATEMENT.

PARIS, January q.
Nothing of Importance occurred last
night, the war Office announced this
afternoon.
Yesterdays French official communica-
tions read:
In Belgium we successfully cannonaded
the defensive organizations of the
enemy, particularly in the regions OF
Steenstraete, Hetsas and Boesinghe.
In Artois our batteries dropped pro-
jectiles on the railway station of
Bysleux, on the hill south of Arras,
during the passage of a train.
In Champagne, in the course OF an in
tense bombardment by our artillery
on the German trenches to the north
of the Navarin farm, We destroyed all
the material of attack by gases, sew
eral reservoirs being blown up.
In the course Of the night there was
slight activity on the part of the ar
tillery. In Artois. in the neighbor-
hood of the road to Lille, the enemy
exploded a mine. but was not able to
occupy the excavation.
Between the Disc and the Aisne we
took under fire enemy patrols and
workmen engaged in repairing the
trenches
In Champagne the bombardment car
ried out, yesterday by our batteries
at divers points on the enemy's front
was particularly effective to the west
of the Maison de Champagne, where
the German trenches were filled in.

LIMITS HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS.
Senator Works introduces Bill to
Amend Existing Act.

Senator Works of California today
introduced a bill to amend the act
regulating the height Of buildings. 1t
provides that no building in the resi-
dence streets or avenues shall exceed
seventy feet in height at the highest
point of the roof or parapet; nor shall
it exceed the width of the street on
which it abuts. less ten feet. but in the
case Of buildings on streets from sixty
to sixty-five feet wide the maximum
height may be sixty feet, and on a
street or avenue sixty feet wide or less
the maximum height may be equal to
the width Of the street.
The bill was referred to the District
committee.

No Safeguard for District
in Joint Committees Plan.
Is Mr.. Macfarland's View

No safeguard whatever for the citizens
OF the District, no assurance that Con-
gress will appropriate for the govern
ment's just share of the expenses of the
National Capital, is contained in the plan
recommended by the joint select commit
tee OF Congress on the fiscal relations be-
tween the United States and the Dis
trict. according to a statement issued
today by Henry b. F. Macfar,and, as
chairman Of the joint citizens committee
which contended for the retention of the
half-and-half plan. Mr.. Macfarland said:
1T is, of course. regrettable that the
joint committee did not recommend the
continuance of the half -and-half plan,
since without such definite proportion
there can be no assurance that the ma
tion VIII contribute regularly as much as
the District taxpayers, or as much as
the capital needs.
Bonded Debt Payments.
THE principle is recognized by the
committee in its provision for a continu-
ance OF the payment OF the bonded debt
on the 'half-and- half plan. Otherwise
the bondholders would have no certainty
OF payment beyond the amount of the
yield OF the District taxation. 80

ut is gratifying that the proposition
to cover the District taxes into the
national Treasury as miscellaneous
receipts of the government was re-
jected, and that the joint committee
recommends that District tax money
be treated as a trust fund for strictly
District expenses.
"In fact, the whole report with the
one exception of that portion dealing
with the half-and-half plan, which
seems incongruous, is admirable from
our point of view, since it adopts every
point We made in our brief and in our
arguments except that appropria tions
for expenses. should be made in
definite proportion.

| duNdHC6u, DuL q close scrutiny Ol The
facts hardly bears them out
The situation may be summed up by
saying that conditions Justify higher
priced gasoline, but the rise came
sooner and pushed the price higher
than was absolutely necessary. The
producers saw the increase coming, and
apparently forestalled it little. The
fact that they stored their crude oil
in anticipation of better prices was in
itself a factor that brought those prices
up. Thus in Oklahoma there are today
about so, 100000 barrels of oil in surface
or pipe line storage. Much of this can
not be bought from the holders at any
price. speaking in reason. They are
and they will not sell. The withdrawal
of great stocks of crude oil, such as
these necessarily forces the price up.
The Appalachian oil fields, where the
best grades of petroleum flow. have
also probably
Producers Tendency an immense
To Hold Their Stock. though tn e
holders are not giving out any figures
1t is no more than natural that these
companies should hold up their oil
when the price goes up as it has from
$1.35 for Pennsylvania crude in August
to sails for the same grade in Decem-
Der. The point worth noting is that
in any industry, the raw material of
which comes from relatively small
number of sources any general ad-
vance in price is always greater than
conditions seem to warrant, because
the tendency of producers to hold their
stock for a further rise quickly brings
on shortage.
Far-sighted oil men anticipated the
nj ,IxcSav linn fnf
three main factors. The first and most
striking of these is the Immense in
crease in foreign demand for gasoline.
The European war might be described
as a battle of motors. Countless motor
trucks, converted omnibuses, touring
cars, racing cars and host of spe-
cially built vehicles form the vital
means of transportation and communi-
cation on both sides. The fleets of
aeroplanes and ZeppeIins consume i'm
mense quantities of gasoline, though
the allied blockade has forced German !
to develop several substitutes. AS u e
worlds leading gasoline producer, tae
United States feels the effect of u lis
export business. The exports , ave
jumped from an annual hundred mil
lion gallons before the war to a gure
between three and four hundred mil
lion gallons year today. These latter
figures represent from 30 to 30 per
cent of our total production. and alone
explain quite a rise in price.

The normal domestic demanil for gas
oline also increases at a surprising
rate, ,as we adj

100000 internal combustion engines and
our 100000 motor boats. Each week
the domestic consumption of gasoline
is approximately $4,000 gallons greater
than it was the week before. Such in
creased demand at a time of shortage
is quite a factor in raising prices
though under ordinary conditions IL
might only stimulate the seS-Tch for
new wells.
The third cause of the current high
price, and perhaps the most important
of all, is the falling off in the flow OF
misunderstanding crude oil. This factor
is likely to be overlooked. because the
net production of crude oil for the yeal
1915 is estimated by the geological sur
