PLAN GASOLINE THRIFT.
Fuel Authorities Hope Conserva-
ton Will Avoid Curtailment Rules.

Preparatory to any shortage that
may arise in the gasoline supply.
plans are being considered by the
oil division of the fuel administra ton,
in cooperation with the automobile
industry and the national petroleum
war service committee. to determine
the most satisfactory method Of
gasoline conservation.
Although there has been a sufficient
supply of gasoline in this country,
up to- the present time, the fuel ad-
ministration is convinced that it's fu-
ture consumption must be closely
guarded to prevent shortage. 1t Is
not expected in any event that it will
be necessary to restrict normal con-
sumption for freight vehicles. Pro-
vided there is reasonable conserva-
tion by all concerned. the fuel
authorities say it may not be neces-
sary seriously to interfere with
pleasure cars and motor boats.

Training Should Be Finished.
Our boys in schools and our young
men in college should heed the words
of the nations leaders" he said.
They are insistent that the best serv-
ice our young meH can render is IN
completing their educational training,
so that their service. when rendered,
shall be that of trained men, fit to do
mems work in leadership
Turning to. the young men he said:
You may well take. TO heart the
satisfaction that, in pursuing your
studies In college for business and en-
xineering after closing your train
ing as boys in this great school, you
have the highest authority Tor feel.
ing that you are serving the national
need, a need as great as that calling
men to the military front, and that
on you doubtless will rest the duty
and privilege Of carrying out great
national and world service In placing
at the call of the nation the training
You receive as students.
1T is we'll to remember this-that
the call to the colors does not mean
necessarily to step out at once and
follow the flag to battle-that the
service as educated, trained men you
can hereafter render will be of in
finitely more practical value to the
country than any service you can
