FUEL SAVING QUALITIES ARE
 SHOWN BY D0RT

"A pencil and paper is all that is re- quired to prove that it is a great deal cheaper to travel in a motor car than on railroad train,' says John D. Mansfield general sales manager for the Dort Motor Car company.
 Tn a recent competitive economy run from Los Angeles to the Yosemite val ley, distance of 370 miles, the Dort consumed but fourteen and one-half gallons of gasoline, costing at the gas station s2S5. In figuring that the car carries five passengers comfortably it brings the total gasoline expense per passenger down to 57 cents. The cost of the oil is almost of no consequence on such a trip-one quart being suf- ficient-and as the Dort had no tire trouble on the economy run whatever, the tire expense in this car is also re- duced to minimum In addition to l this, not a mechanical adjustment was made, which eliminates garage and re- pair expense.
 "The round trip fare from Los An gees to the Yosemite by railroad is S29.50 per passenger, and for the party of five the fare would be s147.50. Com | pare this with the round-trip fare for | five passengers in a Dort, which would be $5.70, or a total saving via the Dort way of over $40.
 | "The figures as given out by the of I ficials of the contest, which were care fully checked by competent observers, are as follows: The distance between Los Angeles and Bakersfield is 124.3 miles On this leg of the run the Dort consumed only four gallons of gas, an average of 31-17 miles per gallon. The heat of midday cut down the average | between Bakersfield and Fresno, but even there the Dort maintained an av- craze of 29.33 to the gallon. From Fresno to Yosemite the elevation rises to $500 feet, which means greater gaso- line consumption in making the grades and yet the Dort completed the entire run averaging 25.97 miles per gallon.
 Easing the figures upon these re- suits the cost per mile of travel fol
 each passenger would be but .001 # cent, or a total expense of 4 cent pei
 mile for the five passengers, an expense almost too small to be considered.
 Add to the economy the convenience
 of going when you please, where vol
 please leaving and starting at time'
 to suit your own convenience, and vol
 can see the reason why so many partie
 are making tours via the motor car.

Significance to the statement that extensive exploration will be carried on in the Chino valley oil fields near Jerome Junction. is found in the vari- ous reports coming to the city that rigs are being shipped in to the dis trict, and that the country for miles around has been taken up by the ever alert prospector.
 That the fall will see quite a num- Der of companies drilling for oil in the Chino valley is a foregone con clusioT.
 According to the latest advices from the district, the Chino Oil company is moving it's rig to a new location, and the Arizona Del Rio company will, 1t is generally believed, have a drill in operation sometime this month.
 A prominent oil man who has just returned to the city from the fiele states that a number of Wyoming oil operators are entering the Chino val ley district, and that transaction has just been closed at Prescott, which means that the Wyoming people will begin the early exploration with rig
 Colonel Frederick Bowler of Pres colt has just closed an important deal with Nevada people, who will explorr a tract of $40 acres, situated tw' miles to the north and half-mile t the west of the Chino Oil company well. Biologists have made a highly favorable examination of this prop erty.

WASHINGTON, September S.-whcn
conferences between Viscount Ishii and
Secretary Lansing are resumed Monday
neither tho question of steel exports
for Jnpan's shipbuilding industries nor
tho disposition of the former German
possessions In China and in the Pacific
will be discussed.
This was made clear to-day. as was
also the fact that In planning for her
more extended aid in the war. Japan
will not demand condition precedent.
The steel question. II was learned,
was taken UP before Viscount Ishii
came to America. and It will continue
to be handled by the permanent en-
bassy here.
Regarding her possession of Kiao-
chow, Japan takes the position that tho
subject is not one for discussion with
the United States. but should properly
be a topic for tho peace conference.
Whatever claims Japan may have in
China arising out of the war also are
considered not proper subjects for dis
cussion until the war has been ended.
This also applies to tho German islands
in the Pacific now held by the Japa-
nese.
II was also definitely stated that
while 1t may be impossible to avoid
touching China in general discus
sion Of Japan's position in the Far
East Japan's wishes and ambitions
will not be brought up at this time.
Japan has suffered greatly by Ger
man intrigue. both In her own country
and In China. In this respect, Japan
feels that, as the United States has
also suffered from this intrigue, the
two nations can. with propriety, con-
fer on the subject. Japan considers
it prime necessity for her. as we'll as

conditions In China. not only to en-
nance China's value as an ally at this
