While the campaign was on, and since, for that
matter, we were assured that we had little to
fear from European manufacturers after the war
is over. So far as England is concerned, this
is true for business as usual is reality and not
merely state Of mind in the matter of exporta-
ton to America. For example, from Nottingham
in the first three-quarters of 1916, ending with
September, the total of exports reached $9.0sd79l
an increase over 1915 OF nearly three and one-half
millions. This is for laces, cotton and wool hos.

Public utlities and Conditions q Labor.

One of the too frequently neglected faetnrs m
relations between the public and public service
corporations, that Of homs, wages md conditions
Of labor, is the subject Of veg interesting re
port to the National Municipal league at its an
nual meeting at Springfield, Mass The question
was taken up in its broadcast sense, and considered
in its general bearings as we'll as in its detailed
application. From the pubic's side, II was de-
tcrmned that service to patrons must be continu-
Gus, and furnished at as low charge as Is con-
sistcnt with other factors The companys side
requires the certainty OF reasonable return on
money invested. To the worlmen must be made
sure remunerative wages, and hours and condi-
tons Of employment that are fair.
The possibility Of disturbance Of equilibrium
by reason of this triangular relation is ever pres
cnt. To avoid this, the committee advocates de-
priving the employees Of the right to strike Is
the only way toiinsure continuity of service To
compensate for this restriction, the employees
should have protection written in the franchise,
under which reasonable wages and conditions will
be made certain. Settlement Of unavoidable dis
putes is to be attained through arbitration. The
simplicity Of the plan would recommend it. were
il not for its failure to give full weight to the
human element In order that ample protection
might be assured the workers against the desire
for low-priced service on the one hand and in
creasing dividends on the other, regulations proc
against public indifference and private neglect
must be adopted.

To Investors: This Company now con.
trolls over (3OOOO) thirty thousand acres OF
lands and leases In the real oil and gas belt
These properties have been carefully selected
and are well blocked into many different
properties, reaching into twelve different oil
counties. We have actual work started on
twenty-o new wells-four to seven OF which
should be completed during the next two
weeks, including several to the deep sands.
This Company may have over two hundred
million dollars of oil in these different prop
critics and is determined to put into operation

them going until the Company's production
reaches twenty thousand barrels per day.
II controls one great lease OF about twelve
thousand acres northwest Of the rich Heald-
ton oil pool on reported greater anticline
than Headton. Derrick is being moved in
and drilling will start at once at our choice
location on this property whore a great pro-
duccr can be expected. The Hoaldton field
covers less acreage and Is now estimated to
bee worth nearly a quarter Of billion dollars.
Also this Company has recently secured
lease Of nearly five thousand acres in Steph-
ems County. oklahoma, several hundred acres

once on our valuable property on this great
lease in stephens County.
BY Monday July 10, five to seven new
wells in different districts should be com
pleted. Some of them are certain to be
rich producers and will justify an advance
on the stock from 6 to - per cent. which
will Immediately follow on the advertised
