SERIOUS SHORTAGE OF
GASOLINE THREATENED

Globe. Ariz.. Sept. ga serious gas
oline shortage on the Pacific coast the
effect OF which would extend through
put the entire country during the next
year, was predicted here today during
the closing sessions of the convention
pf the American Institute of Mining
Engineers.
w r. Hamilton Of San Francisco
presented the gasoline industry data to
the engineers. According to Mr.. Ham
lton. the only possible means of in
treasing gasoline production are by
the increased production of either light
oil or casing head gasoline. lowering
the grade Of market gasoline, or by
successful innovations in refining
methods. Most of these solutions Mr.
Hamilton explained as impracticable In
The immediate future, although he said
that by lowering the grade of gaso-
line production could be increased
from 80 to so per cent. He attributed
the future gasoline shortage to de-
creased production of refinable oil (the
decrease amounting to 100000 barrels
in 1879. steadily increasing consump-
ton, the discontinuance of imports and
the heavy exports due to the European
war demands.

streets. San Francisco, at o'clock Sat
urday afternoon. July 20, just five days,
1874 hours after the car had left Co.
lumbus circle, New York. Bats miles
away.
This completed the most remarkable
and fastest journey ever made across
the United States in a motor car, the
average rate of speed being almost
equal to the schedule of the fast trans
continental railroad trains. The car
was a Marmon "a touring car of reg
ular production and was driven by Mr..
Stevens and other amateurs under the
auspices of the American Defense So
cety to demonstrate the possible speed
and reliability of motor transportation
across the continent This epoch max

pension, the self-oiling chassis lubrica-
tion system and other features.

Savage Tire Company Starts Work on
Lincoln Highway In Nevada

terested to such a point that the i'm
provement of the entire Lincoln High I
way in Nevada will soon become fact
THE nightmare spot of the whole
state is the Fallon Sink, particularly
the 12-mile section between Sand
Springs and Salt Well. Sink" is a
very appropriate name for this stretch
of road divided into the eight-mile flat
and the four mile flat, is at least a
foot deep with sand in the middle of
the summer, and the rest Of the year
it is a quagmire where a car often
sinks up to the hubs. Besides this
there is a great deal of heavy travel
from nearby mines, which keeps the
road cut up all the time. 1t Is nothing
unusual for an auto or truck to be-
come so mired that it takes 30 mules to
pull the car out.
1.-THE Lincoln Highway association
through their state counsel, Joseph E
Kane, Is doing excellent work in arous-
ing interest in the Improvement OF
this Nevada portion of the highway
and the association stands ready to
contribute large sum of money to the
rebuilding Of the section, providing

REMARKABLE DASH MADE
BY STUDEBAKER CAR

Racing SO miles in 81 minutes at
night, two Studebaker skies made a re-
markable dash a few days ago from
Elmira to Hornell, N. Y. One of the
drivers carried the government message
from the war department which was
being carried from Plymouth, Mass.
To Seattle. Wash, distance of 1886
miles, in 120 hours. The Studebakers
made their leg of the journey within
one minute of the time required by
the fastest train.

the state OF Nevada and others inter-
ested will cooperate. We hope that
this section OF road that the Savage
Tire company Is building will make it
so evident that It is perfectly feas-
ible to put the entire road in good
condition. that within a short time mo-
florists will no longer be forced to make
big detour or use next to impass-

The country schools have been han.
dicapped, as compared with the city
schools, for lack OF money. have
never begrudged the city schools one
cent OF their money. On the other
hand, one reason am supporting this
amendment is that II enlarges the OPP
portunity OF the cities to increase the
support of their own schools. The
fact remains. however that II the
country children ever come into their
own in the matter Of securing an ade-
Quate common school education, we
must have more money for the coun-
try schools. II is idle to say that a
six months term OF school with seven
grades OF work In a restricted course
OF study carried on In a ramshackle
school house without libraries or lab.
oratories, on a bleak and desolate
school ground, is adequate to country
children's needs. The county tax pro-
vided for In this amendment will 20
long way toward overcoming these
, defects.
Twenty.one states now provide for
county tax for the support OF
schools. The proposed amendment
does not In any way interfere with the
present state adyalorem tax for
schools, nor does II interfere with the
present methods or support OF com
mon and independent district schools.
but Il does provide that tax may be
voted on all tae property OF the coun'
ty for the support OF all the schools
OF the county. the proceeds OF which
will be apportioned to all schools OF
the county on per capita basis. This
proposition is Democratic, Just and
equitable and should receive the unan'
imous support OF all friends OF the
