niittee OF the council OF national de-

scrvation OF gasoline was ahso-
lutely necessary II we did not want
to face gasoline famine Mr. Bed
ford has recently changed his atm
tude and now makes the important
statement:
There is no shortage OF gasoline
for use In this country. As a mat
ter of fact as result OF the light
domestic demand incidentz TO the
winter weather. the stocks Of gRso-
line are increasing and will further
Increase before tho heavy summer
demand Ia encountered.
Experience and inquiry make II
clear that the petroleum industry In
America can and will supply all the
Increased demand for oil products
for the war. provided sufficient tank
steamers can be obtainsd. II Ia esti-
mated that I'm 1917 not over 20 per
cent OF the gasoline produced In this
country was exported. That fact
should be reassurlng 10 anyone who
doubts this country's ability 10 sup

the passenger and freight congestion

casloned by complete tie-up Of the
railroad traffic" says A. q. Seiber-
ling. general manager OF the Haynes
Automobile Co. KOkomo. Ind.
Not only does the passenger and
freight mileage OF the automobile
exceed that OF the railroad. but the
railroad depends almost exclusively
upon the automobile for the primary
movement OF freight from farms and
factories and the final distribution
In many cases, long hauls by motors
even take care Of shipments usually
sent by rail The government has
demonstrated conclusivsly the prac-
ticability OF such a move
Use OF the automobile has be-
come so general that even tho pas
senEer miles traversed exceed those
OF either steam railroads or electric
lines. And every mile traversed by
an automobile In carrying freight or
passengers where this service would
naturally fall to the electric or steam
lines means "A great saving OF coal
