These facts are an unanswerable
argument to the walls OF the pc
troleum preyaricator,' just as the
cooperative effort OF the petrole-
um industry as 4 whole is an ex-
ample to other productive enter
prises of the nation.
The Reporter editor then gives
facts and figures to show how every
field in the United States Is show
ing an increase both in activity and
in oil produced in the last few
months, and says that even Cali
fornia, which has been quiescent
for weeks, has come back with
signs OF improved conditions and
better response on the part Of the

Tulsa World. There are severa
recognized groups of prevaricator
among whom not the least has beer
the campaign liar but with the ad
vent OF the world war and the re
adjustment OF manufacturing anc
distribution conditions in the Unit
ed States has been born new type
OF the genus-the war industry
aarmist'
With these few kind words the
editor OF the Oil, Paint and Drug
Reporter, whose grasp on the OIL
situation as whole is unquestion-
ed, introduces an article aimed at
the war industry alarmists" who
know" or believe" that the gov
eminent is about to take over the
oil industry, the petroleum refiner-
les, the several other branches, and
says that there have been as many
suggestions for holding up the
petroleum industry as there have
been so-called prohibition bills.
For the first time in history the
oil men--producers, refiners and
distributors, are in absolute accord
with each other and just as long as
the industry can be depended upon
it will not be disturbed
Chester Narramore, chief OF the
petroleum division of the bureau Of
mines, reiterates Nh Requas pre-
viously made statements, and then
proceeds to tell why the rumor-
monger is without basis OF fact or
reason in reports to the contrary.
In a nutshell the reasons are these:
Why He Speaks Falsely.
"Gasoline is by-product in the
manufacture of fuel oil, and there
is such demand for fuel oil for
the navies OF the allies and for
other purposes that officials OF all
branches OF the government having
10 do with fuel oil consumption and
distribution believe there is scant
probability OF any gasoline short
age.
"Production and storage figures
from all the large rcfineries and
1abulating points show constant
ly enhanced output by the refiner- :
les and an appreciable acceleration
of stocks.
The reserve supply Of gasoline
in this country today is more than
twice what it was two years ago.
Then the editor gives 4 table, !
prepared by expert official statiSu-
clans" showing that the reserve y
stocks OF gasoline have been SO en-
Iarged since Sept. 1917, that they }
are now double what they were at
hat time. :

II became known today that the pres
idert and his immediate advisers re-
gard the threat Of strike as a seri-
Gus impairment of the government s

White House as stated to those who
conferred with the president is that

dent with authority to take possession

Postmaster General Burleson, Secre-
tary Daniels and Secretary Baker are
equally insistent that congress should

view to members who consulted with
them today, and urged that the reso-
luton be passed with the least pos
sible delay
