He is u. S. Marine! His name is

tion of being whale of a man.
but it wasn't until he got to lodging
Boche shells in France that his fell
low fighters fully realized just how
big he is.
The first time an "alert' was sound,
ed after his company got up front.
Grealy made dash for dugout and
got wedged tight in the. entrance,
All efforts to get him out were of no
avail, until six former football stars
in the company were called upon to
rush him through.
They had to enlarge the entrance
before they could get him out.

Mr.. Sherman, in the employ of the
United States. government and sent
out by Mr.. Day, in charge of the
United States shale oil experimental
bureaus, arrived in Elko some time ago
for the purpose of completing arrange
rnents for the erection Of govern
ment test plant on . section of EIko's
shale beds. The plant to be erect
ed under Mr.. Sherman's supervision
is one OF chain of test plants being
put up all over the west wherever the
shale deposits are extensive enough
to warrant the expenditure.
The plant to be installed at Elko
will be an adaptation OF the Scottish
process. Mr.. Sherman las recently
completed the construction OF a ro-
tary screw process plant AT Santa

Maria, Cal. 1t is the purpose of the
ierent style process at each point in
order TO finally discover the method
best fitted to extract the product
in this country.
Yerington times. [volume] (Yerington, Nev.) 1907-1932, 1918-07-20

The plant will probably be built
on q section Of shale land adjoining
the Catlin interests.
The particular purpose of the gov
ernment in erecting so many differ
ent styles Of plants is to discover the
best process and to encourage the
investment of private capital in the
method which il found best adapted
to the needs of this country. Private
capital has thus far been slow to take
up the shale oil investment, and il is
in the hope that successful expert
ncnts by government experts will
tend to stimulate the p.ivate product
ion of shale oil and its by-products
that the United States is taking the
initiative in this regard.
In tie event that matters are sat
isfactorily disposed OF with reference
to the location OF the plant its erect
ion will begin at once and it is expect
ed that it will be in operation within
very short time. Some 100000 will
probably be expended in the building

TO SPEND MILLIONS ON
LINCOLN HIGHWAY.

Millions are being expended in al
parts of the country for the improve
ment of the Lincoln Highway, the
main road between the east and west
through the country. The need Of the
nation is good roads, now more than
in peace times, because of the huge
amount of freight being moved over
the roads for long distances in motor
trucks and the great number of pass
engers travelling every day IN passen-
ger carrying automobiles.
"The government is encouraging
the movement to improve the roads,
says a local dealer. Here are some
data received by us from the Lincoln
Highway Association that tell in hg-
ures the amount of road work that
is being done in this country along
the big road.
I'm the face of labor shortage, high
cost OF material and other retarding
influences, more work is to be com
pleted upon the Lincoln Highway in
1918 than ever before.
Estimates compiled by officials OF
the Lincoln Highway Association in
dicate that between S5,000,00O aud So
0C0.00O will be spent IN improvements
upon the route from the Pennsylyan-
ia Ohio line to the Pacific Coast

Wednesday evening.
DIR. Margaret Long, daughter OF
former Secretary of the Navy Long.
who is driving Miss Martin over the
state in her car. spoke briefly OF the
importance 10 the whole country OF
having women in the Senate at this
time.
Miss Martin in her speech pointed
out that il had been real handicap
to the government in its conduct OF
the war not to have women IN ad-
nlinistrative positions.
AN example" she said. is the
Food Administration. The price OF
wheat was fixed, but other commod-
tiles were LETT uncontrolled. Women,
with their experience in household
economics would have seen that to
prevent the profteering that resulted
in the case OF corn and other wheat
substitutes, other prices. would have
70 be lix.d also. Then there was the
case OF the shipping program winch
was nearly wrecked because while
the government made all other nee
essary arrangements, they neglected
10 provide housing facilities for the
working men. Women would natural
Iy have thought of this
Miss Martin declared tha, IN her
platform she stands for support OF
the President and the government to
win the war: for the welfare OF NO
n1cn and children: for promotion OF
the interests OF labor; for public own
ership OF public utilities and Tor the
opening up OF Nevada land IN the IN
terest OF the people as opposed to
private monopoly.
The land problem. she pointed out
could be solved by further irrigation
projects, by dividing up the big land
holdings into small farms. and giving
the small farmer equal privileges in
the public range; and by greater fed
eral aid to the new settlers than has
been given in the past
1--WE must also.' she declared" pre-
pare for the period of denobilization
that will follow the war, and prevent
wide spread unemployment OF the men
who are set free from war industries
who are set free from war industries;
by providing farms for returning SOL
diers.'
Miss Martin came out strongly for
state and national prohibition. NE
vada has responded SO we'll" she said,
TO the Red Cross, Liberty Loan and
Thrift Stamp campaigns, that am
sure we will put through prohibition
as patriotic measure. | believe in
it now as a means of conserving food
and man power, and as permanent
measure after the war"
Miss Martin has now completed
her first tour OF the state in the in
terests Of her campaign. She has
spoken in every county seat and many
towns besides, AMI formed committees
OF men and women to boost the cam
paign in every county.
During the past week she has spo-
