OIL FAMINE is SEEN

New York, Jan. IL. -"Gasoline

gasoline was quoted at 40 cents per

Harry f. Sinclair, millionaire Oil man,

this time" added Sinclair, and unless
new fields are opened within year or
so there may be an oil famine The
output of all the old fields is decreas-

gasoline is increasing every day.

the largest in the world, show an av-
erage daily decrease of 100000 barrels
in comparison with the output of a
year ago. A barrel Of oil averages AZ
gallons of oil or 81 gallons of gaso-
line. This means that the average
yearly decrease in gasoline production
In Oklahoma alone is 1916. 250,000 gal

Other fields have been affected the
same way as Oklahoma. and dare
say that the average decrease in the

G. w. Perkins, Chairman of National
Executive Committee, Says candl-

Colonel Sends Message.

Chicago, Jan, 12.-As a political
entity the Progressive party will have
no existence in the national campaign
OF 1916 V the Republicans grasp the
olive branch which was pro8ered to
them by George w. Perkins and other
Bull Moose leaders in the meeting Of
the Progressive national committee in
Chicago.
That the Progressives in their peace
advances are willing to forego pres
idential nomination for Theodore
Roosevelt, If amalgamation and har-
mony can be brought about thereby.
was revealed in the following state
ment by Mr.. Perkins, made at the end
of the committees session:
I'VE are all hopeful that both par
ties will agree upon somebody, and it
need not necessarily be Mr.. Roose-
Welt"
Roosevelt for Peace.
This remark was made after Colonel
Roosevelt had sent a message to the
Moosers in which he asked them to
subordinate party to country and to
join with other forces in waging a
conflict to GUST the Democrats from
control at the national capital.
There is crying need" said the
colonel, that we shall cast aside all
purely partisan considerations and dis
regard all but the vital issues affect
ing the national life, and shall strive
intellectually for a sound American
ism, which shall insist that every man
within our borders shall be an Ameri-
can and nothing else"
Convention Here June 7.
Immediately after the message had
been read the committee decided upon
Chicago as the place and June as
the time for holding national conven
ton. This is the date which the Re
publican national committee has Sc
lected for it's 1916 convention in Chi
cago.
Mr.. Perkins enlarged upon his
earlier statement by issuing another
one in which he defined what he re
CARDS as the issues in the coming
campaign and the relation which the
Progressive following holds to them.
He reiterated the party declarations
Of 1912 and then proclaimed the
! proposition of national military and
naval preparedness as the prime issue
of the campaign this year.
AmaIsamation Is Fought.
Because of the failure of the Viii
son administration to deal adequately
with national honor and industrial
welfare this country faces problems
of q graver and more far-reachine
consequence than any since the CiVi
war;" he said.
1T has stood by while the law o.
nations disappeared from the earth
without adequate protest or effective
resistance"
. He added that the 100000 Pro
gressive voters will follow only {
leader whom we know stands for an
tional honor and integrity and is abl'
to put them through"
