ing Of Germans in Scotland.
London, March 26.-Rumors which
have been in circulation for several
days OF the landing Of Germans in
Scotland or at a place on the English
coast received their quietus in the
house OF commons today. Chancellor
Bonar Law said that so far as 1t was
possible to give any reason for the
origin Of the rumors they probably
were due to the fact that the home de-
fense troops had been told to be ready
for an emergency. This report created
an unusual commotion.
Replying to Admiral Sir Hedworth
Meux. member Of parliament for Ports
mouth, Mr.. Bonar Law said the ques-
ton OF blockade had been fully con-
sidered by the cabinet.

Since Wednesday,, these watchers
stated, the sound of hammers has been

where the Prinz Eitel Friedrich and the
Kronprinz Wilhelm are moored.
For weeks the bands aboard both
ships have not played. On Wednesday,
however, they played for several hours
in the morning, and again at night.
Watchmen declare that in the silence
between selections the sounds Of heavy
hammerlng could be heard.
The marine sentries believe that the
machinery has been crippled or ruined.
and that a declaration Of war would find
the raiders worthless.

AUTOISTS SUFFER BY
TIE-UP OF OIL LANDS
Secretary Lanes Efforts to Re-
lease Supplies Interest
Automobile Owners.

Secretary Lane, of the Interior De
partment, is actively exerting himself
to secure legislation which is of in
tsrest to automobile owners through
out the whole country. There is good
reason to believe that the price Of
Easolene will continue to advance un-
less the legislation advocated by Sec
retary Lane is adopted by Congress
at this session.
The Secretary's> effort is to secure
the release of Oil supplies which are
now locked up by Government with
drawals of public lands and which
will continue locked up indefinitely
unless Congress passes the general
land leasing bill.
The Secretary has written a letter
to Senator Myers, chairman OF the
Public Lands Committee, in cunnec-
tion with plans for national defense,
and as a part of the subject he makes
4 special reference to the situation
concerning Gasolene.
-GasoIene Military Necessity.
In this letter, which was published
in the Congressional Record of Febru-
ary L., the Secretary said:
We have some 5000. 900 acres of possi-
Bile oil lands so Withdrawn that no wells
can be bored upon them. Only the lands
now held in private ownership are pro-
ducing- We should be about the business
Of discovering what these Withdrawn lands
contain. Gasolene is invaluable to the
army and 10 the navy. as well as to every
automobile owner and 10 the owner OF
every other gasolene driven engine in the
country. The development OF
th4se resources can be made effective by
tha passage of a leasing bill.
Secretary Lanes reference to a
leasing bill is based on the bill which
has twice passed the House of Rep
rasentatives and has been reported
favorabIy by the Public Lands Com
Tnittee of the Senate. The bill au-
thorizes the exploration and disposi.
tIon of coal, phosphates, oil 'and pot
ash deposits on the public domain
and opens up to exploration and de-
Nelopment some 6.000.0OO acres OF oil
lands, as stated in Secretary Lanes
letter, and also large areas of potash
and phosphate lands, the product of
which would be of inestimable value
TO the nation in peace as well as in
war.
Urges Need of Legislation.
In a previous letter addressed to
Senator Phelan, of California Secre-
-tary Lane>emphasized his desire that
there should be legislation. This
letter was published in the Congress
sional Record of January IL. In 1t,
among other things, the Secretary
said:
II had seemed to me that to withhold
such legislation as the proposed general
leasing bill and thus keep over 100000
acres Of oil lands locked up indefinitely
because there is doubt to the policy
that should BE- pursued to part OF one
naval oil reserve Is not the wisest course.
as it would permit one obstacle to master
. truly national need.
The matter OF the naval reserve,
referred to in Secretary Lanes let
ter last quoted, is entirely beside the
question in so far as the interests
Of automobilists and other consum-
ers of gasoIene are concerned, andt
should not be permitted to delay the
a. of the general leasing bill,
more especially as the question OF
the disposition of only 5000 acres
OF oil lands is involved.

This is due principally to our superior
powder. Europe did not realize this
fact until she began to use our powder
