Yellow Gasoline az Good "a White

II motorists realized that their preju-
dice against yelloWish gasoline was un-
warranted the gasoline supply might be
Increased considerably. In the early
days OF the oil industry poor refining
methods were responsible for the pro-
ductiOn of yellowish kerosenes and
gasolines, which were sometimes dan
gerous. This led the public to demand
that gasoline be water white" and the
prejudice has hindered the develop
ment OF cracking processes which pro-
duce perfectly safe gasoline with a
slightly yellowish tinge.
Another handicap In the industry. ac-
cording to petroleum experts, is the
necessity for refiners treating gasoline
with sulphuric acid and caustic soda
to remove unsaturated hydrocarbons,
which have high fuel value In an ex-
plosion engine. 1t is estimated that
there Is loss of $1O,000,OOO a year In
the United States through these preju-
dices, represented by 100000 gallons
of gasoline, $4,000 tons of sulphuric
acid and $500 tons of caustic soda.

The way in which the LOndoner

often been commented on, and one of
the latest incidents described is
worthy of special recognition. A wom-

oiI-YieIdinq Plants in Denmark,

At large meeting of farmers as
sociations recently held in Copenha-
gen. there was much discussion about
the planting of oil-yielding plants, such
as flax and hemp. There has been q
general tendency toward increasing the
areas planted to grain, but on account
of the growing scarcity of fats and
edible oils, it now seems to be desir-
able to grow more oil-yielding plants,
especially as the residue left after
pressing out the Oil (Oil cakes) will
help to supply the great deficiency In
cattle feeds.

TOO MANY TONGUES
Language of the United States Is
Urged for All.
Suouestion Is Offered That All OF the
Earth's People Learn to
Speak English.

The next thing that must be done In
the way of world efficiency is to get
rid Of a lot'of languages that are float
ing around to the restraint of trade.
1t will be the most difficult feat of
ALL but it must be done, just the same.
This thing of every bunch of people
across a river or over mountain
speaking a different language from
their near neighbOrs is the biggest
handicap the world has to contend
with today, asserts a writer in the Los
Angeles Times Magazine.
Moreover, this surplus Of languages
is the one thing, above all Others that
has caused misunderstanding wars,
strategies, spoils, hell-raising, and
hatreds generally.
The biggest bar against the friendly
relations Of one people with another
has been the difference in their mode
Of human speech. 1t started with the
building of the Tower of Babel when
the Lord confused the people on pur-
: pose because Of their wickedness, and
} -ze took the best way possible to ac-
complish the result of the divine will.
But, now that Gods people have been
making fairly good stab at getting
right with him again-all of us, and
our fathers before us for centurieS-it
is reasonable to suppose that God will
let us ditch that Tower of Babel stuff
if we make real good honest try at it.
America itself-the melting pot of
natfons-is a striking proof that the
thing can be done. Here have they
come from every land and all the seven
seas, the children of all races, speak
ing every tongue known to man, and
before they know it they are all speak
ing good United States.
Then, why not start a serious move
ment to get the whole world, here and
elsewhere, speaking United States-or
English, If that's a better way to say
it?
1t won't be easy, but it certainly can
be done. And when it is done, this will
be happier, a more peaceful, and a
more prosperous earth on which to
live.
We recommend English-that Is to
say, the way we speak it here in Amer
ica-as the universal language, because
1t is, without doubt, the best language
, of all, If only for the reason that it is
made up of almost all the others.
In French, Russian, German, Span
ish, italian, and all foreign tongues it
:. usually requires IL words or more to
= say what we say in one. The Welsh
for instance, have word with 19 let
ters in it that we can put in four let
ters. These other folks fog up their
larynges and wear out their nasal pas
sages saying things what we say better
with mere breath and touch Of the
tongue against the teeth.
Unless you were born to it, or unless
they caught you very young, you might
as well try to learn to be a circus
tumb1er as to learn French or German
and earn living in the bargain. The
thing will take up all your time while
the potatoes go to pot and the cObwebs
grow across the store door. And, in
the end, you will find that you haven't
learned these lines Of talk, anyway.
The thing to do is to make yourself
as nearly master of English as pos
sible, and then force the other fellows
to speak our language for their own

Resolution Adopted
 By Council of Defense

To Senators Joe T. Robinson and w. F. Kirby, Washington, D. C. Gentleman:- At reg ular meeting of the Franklin County Council of Defense held tonight the following resolution was adopted: "Whearas, In the adjustment of the many impor- tant issues which must be passed upon by the treaty of Peace to be formed at the Versailles Confer ence wide diversity of interests will necces arily appear, and
 Whereas, unless a spirit of compromise prevails throughout all it's deliberations, 1t will be impossible to secure a workable arrangement of the affairs of the manyNations whose interests are involved without incurring the lasting resentment of one or more peoples, and
 Whereas, our own past history has shown that a loosely con- structed Confederacy of States is not sufficiently strong to compel an observance of laws beneficial to the whole, but that in a union of States there must reside pow CT to enforce upon any one State hose principles w' 'ich promote the general welfare of all,
 Therefore be it Resolved, That we urge upon our Senators that they suggest to ourDelegates to the Peace Conference the wisdom of securing a strong Confederacy of the Nations before attempting tn settle the conflicting claims of those Nations that they assist in constructing a World Govern ment before making the laws under ~hich that Government is to operate.

 Dear Home folks and family: I will try and write you again but don't know any thing new to write. This leaves me well and enjoying life. We are having some nice cool weather here at present. saw Stevil last night and Ed Stewart today. They both got letter home yesterday. 1 have not seen or heard of Earl yet but will probably in the near furture. 1 hope so any how. There is some probability of us being placed near each other and I hope we will. 1 am at the Y. NJ.

Some peo- pie will tell you we are not half fed or treated we'll over here but l want to say that the one who tells that is sadly mistaken, for 1 have never been hungry or mis- treated since 1 have been over here and l have been over here long enough to learn a whole lot about this country and the ways of the French people.
 Have just been reading the newspaper and 1t seems that the game is coming to a close, but you know we can't be worried if 1t stops tomorrow. George has been setting up his shoe repairing out fit to day. He will soon be busy repairing shoes. When he gets out of the army he will be a shoe cobbler. Has there been any more of boys drafted from around there lately?. Tell Charley liar man not to think hard of me for not writing to him as l promised but 1 have hardly had time to write home since l come over here. If all of the Arkansas people were over here l would like to stay but they are not over here, so when the war is over am coming back to the LISA. 1 have got to close and go get me some tobacco, So don't forget to write often.

Roy wrote home that it would be impossible for him to get a fur tough to home and sent gifts for all the family, and the news that he would not get home for his mothers birteday, which comes on Christmas day, brought dis appointment to the entire family. But the nearer the time came the more anxious Roy was to see his mother, and he. just picked up and came, but not without a furlough. He arrived on the night train and staid with his sister, Mrs. J.
