MAY NOT CHECK
GASOLINE USE
FOR SOME TIME
Moderation and Stimulation of
Production Will Be
Tried First.

Face to face with an imminent
shortage of petroleum products. the
government mas two resources: 1t can
restrict consumption and it can adopt
policies which will stimulate produc-
ton. The first should fbe resorted to
only in SO far as the second fails to
relieve the situation.
Mr.. "A. C. Bedford, chairman Of the
Cooperative Committee on Petroleum
of the Advisory Commission of the
Council Of National Defense, recently
sounded a warning to automobile own
ers, and IL this warning results In
more moderate use of gasoline for
pleasure purposes the necessity of ar
bitrarily restricting consumption may
not arise. In the meantime, however,
there should be more general I'M
derstanding of what may increase or
| curtai1 production, because ill-advised
action on the part of governmental
asencies might do incalculable dam
/ age.
There Is ample basis for confidence
in the ultimate growth Of the world s
petroleum output, but the fact Pc
mains that unless now oil fields are
opened, the rate of production will
steadily decrease. With few excep-
lions oil pools have been discovered
! by individuals or small concerns
whose adventurous spirit has respond
ed to the lure Of wealth. The larger
concerns have engaged in prospecting

tions are confined largely to the care
full and economical development OF
areas which are known to be oil bear
ing. It Is to the "wild-catter,' the
man who pushes out into untrieo
ground and as an explorer risks his
all for proportionate gain, that the
world must look for extension OF
known oil areas. It s1noailN he appar.
lent that If hazards are to be taken

HOUSE Peters
DOES BIG WORK

House Peters and Adele Earring
ton, who are appearing together in the
feature picture of the weekend pro-
gram at the Liberty theater, will be
seen for the last time tomorrow. The
production has scored decided sue
cess in Honolulu.
The plot of "The Heir of the Ages
is carried forward before the specta-
tor in two parallel stories, both of
which have elaborate settings In the
first part of the picture conditions in
the early dawn of the worlds history
and the savage life of the age of the
cave man are pictured. In the other
part of the story the characters are
presented as they appear in modern
Gay life. This phase has its setting
in mining camp. The picture illus
trates that human nature is never
changing, and that whether it be cave
man or the man of today, brother love
remains the same, the stronger pro-
tects and shields the weaker. The
work of House Peters in the produc-
ton is reminiscent Of his part in 1.-THE
Lonesome Chap" in which he made
a tremendous success here.
The program includes the 14th chap
ter of the stirring serial, 1.-THE Secret
Kingdom" and the Pathe Weekly
News pictures.

are made the setting for a gigantic
plot involving a land steal from the

her rights, make an ideal theme for

of The girl who meets the scheming
villains on their own ground and with
the aid of a government investigator
outwits them after a long battle.
The picture is pregnant with the
outdoor life of the northwest which
calls for rugged men and strong
characters. Into this whirlpool of
plot and scheming is thrown the
daughter of a botanist who is proving
up on his claim. On her fathers

kAMEHAMEHA GIRLS TO
GIVE INDIAN 0PERETTA
ON SCHOOL TERRACE

Tomorrow night the terrace of the
Kamehameha Girls School will be the
scene of a most delightful portrayal
of American Indian life. The Feast
of the Red Corn" an operetta by Paul
Bliss, is to be produced entirely by the
girls of the school under the direction
OF various members of the faculty.
/ The story, whicr is interpreted by
action, song and dance, deals with the
sacred yearly festival of the maidens
of the tribe of Wanta. The trees of
the terrace form perfect representa-
ton of the heart of the forest. Here
the maidens gather for the husking OF
the corn and its attendant ceremonies.
To the maiden finding the first red
ear among the corn is given the fulfil
ment of her dearest wish. This year
the queen herself joins the maidens,
wishing to be assured of the safety of
her absent king. The action contin-
ues through day and night, embo-
ding comedy, near tragedy, ghost
dance, an arrow dance and many
beautiful musical numbers, both solo
and chorus. ,...
The costuming is one of the most
attractive features of the perform
ance.

Mexican side of the border, three
miles south of the monument No.
SO.
The bodies of the Americans
were found about fifty feet
apart, according to Spillsbury.
Each victim had been shot many
times in the head with rifles and
pistols, Judging by the bullet
wounds, Spillsbury said. Hugh
Acord's head was horribly mutt
lated, according to Spillsbury:
All of the bodies were stripped OF
clothing, hats and shoes, Spills
bury said.
Spillsbury said he located the
raiders trail early and came up
on the abandoned bodies late this
afternoon. From what he could
learn the Mormon scout said he
was convinced that the three muir
dered men had been taken from
American soil and then killed.
