REGISTRATION OF WOMEN.
Purpose Explained by COMMITTEES OF
National Defense Council.

Because of the many inquiries
which have come to the woman's com
mittee of the Council of National De-
fense from the state divisions, con-
cerning the registration of woman
service, the committee makes the fol-
lowing statement:
"The registration of the women of
the United States is entirely volun-
tary, and will be made for the pur-
pose Of definitely discovering what
each woman can do to the greatest
advantage of her country and herself
during the war. Plans have been
made with the Couneil!of National De-
tense and the Census Bureau to have
the cards of the right size to tabulate
one the machines of the Census Bu-
reau These cards are recognized by
the United States as official. The
fact that England has taken a regis
tration of it's woman power and that
france and Canada are now engaged
n such a registration would seem to
prove that the countries that have
been at war for three years have
found it necessary to know definitely
what they may call upon the women
to do. We feel, therefore, that no
further arguments for registration
are necessary"

Wild Gas in L.ouisiana.

Engineering feats, comparable in
the ingenuity required if not In ex-
penditure of effort with the closing
of the Salton Sea. have been called
for in recent years to close wild gas
wells in northwestern Louisiana. An
immense amount of natural gas has
been lost in wells that have gotten be-
you'd ontrol in the Caddo and Red
River fields, and the loss consists nos
only in the precious fuel wasted but
in the lowering Of pressure on the 81
sociated oil, which is rendered there
by more difficult to recover. Indeed.
it is asserted by some that the ulti-
mate yield Of oil from a pool ID con-
siderably less if the gas is allowed to
escape than if it is closed in until as
much oil as possible is taken out. The
U. S. Geological Survey has just is
sued report (bulletin 661-C) on tbs
De Soto-Red River oil and gas Acid,
which describes in detail the under
ground conditions in this field, and
discusses the quality of oil and yield
Of the wells. Maps and diagrams
show the location Of wells and other
features Of interest. The larger Cad
do field was described in similar re-
| port issued year ago.
