ing that city for several days, says La

Paris, Sept. Both. The inflamed con
ditions in the Adriatic region and the dis
solution Of the Italian Parliament for the
holding of general election on November
10th, as Rome dispatches have
ed, is giving the Supreme Council much
concern, in view OF the possibility of all
the Balkans becoming involved in the
turmoil. In peace conference circles the
approaching Italian elections are regard
ed as a struggle between the war
and peace parties, or rather between
the forces on the military side and
those of SociaIstic and Pacific tenden-
cies, while it appears that D'Annunzio
and Fume will be a chief issue. The
feeling IS growing In Paris that Dan
nunzio has acknowledged that his as
pirations include far more thrr Fiume.
The Italian situation is daily becoming
more Of an International question, the
view being expressed here that the agi-
tatIon might flame into war any day if.
for instance, a Jugo-Slav should happen
to be killed by Italian troops.

THE FUTURE OF OIL

expansion of the oil industry is not
well based. Last year the U. S. pro-
duced 341.OO0,O 900 barrels of oil but
this was 100000 barrels short of

war we find that the average annual
increase in consumption, If continued

refinery in the United States TO dou-
BILE its capacity.

Cured before the airplane and the
submarine began using large quanti-
ties, Before conversions from coal to
oil as fuel for ships become frequent
and while the automobile industry
was just getting into its stride. In
ensuing years the demand from these
sources for oil will increase tremen-
dously. The possibility in use of oil
as vessel fuel alone can be appreciate
ed from the fact that three 5000 ton
cargo boats burning oil can do the
work of four same size vessels using
coal and at less expense per boat"
Is 1t any wonder that far seeing

MORE INSPIRATIONS

Prospects for wet spell in the United
States before prohibition becomes abso-
lutte and complete are fading and offer no
encouragement to the liquor interests.
The hopes of those opposed to prohibition
scared high when news was received that
President Wilson had vetoed the prohibi-
bition measure. New York celebrated for
a few brief hours and one celebrant in
Kansas City shot up a saloon and wound
ed man in his glee.
We have been assured so often that
President Wilson is an inspired man
that Article x and the entire league of
nations as he brought it home was divine
ly inspired, that it is natural to suppose
he was also inspired on the prohibition
question, although there is some suspicion
that this inspiration came from brew
cry or distinery.
But the lower house leaped to its guns
with alacrity, repassing the measure ov-
er the Presidents veto. The Joy of the
vets was turned to gloom and the future
for the liquor interests was painted dark
er than before. The Senate has taken sim
liar action, so that the hope of the vets is
now pinned to the techicalities which NAV
arise with the ratification of the peace
treaty.
That the Presidents veto was roughly
handled there can be no doubt His DOW
ers as dictator have waned materially
since the rubber stamp Congress passed
out of existence. 1.-THE present Congress-
there seems to be feeling that since pro-
hibition is an established fact in the Unit

DIPLOMACY IGNORING GOD

LDmAAI lOINOTOAlNO OOD
Our attention is called to very serious
omission in the PLATFORM of the league of
nations; nowhere in the platform nor in
the proceedings that lead up to its pro-
mitigation is to be found any hint of Off
cial or public recognition of the act, gen.
orally accepted by civilized humanity, of
the existence of Supreme Being who
rules the destines of nations, nor any petit
ton for divine guidance in the most mo-
mentous crisis in the history of the world
This is no trifling omission nor is it mere
bigotry to refer to it. The founders of
tbs republic recorded in the Declaration
of independence their firm reliance upon
the protection Of divine Providence. This
sentiment was reiterated by Lincoln in
his immortal address at Gettysburg, 8,
well as in other addresses and staUe m
ers, and has been reaffirmed by every
President from Washington to Wilson.
During the darkest DAYS of the Civi! war
the motto "In God We Trust" was stamp
ed upon our silver coinage by acts of Con-
gress. When few years ago it was pro-
nosed to drop this motto from the coinage
the suggestions aroused such tidal wave
of protest that it was Immediately aban-
doned. There is no'reasOn to believe that
American sentiment has changed in this
regard since then. Our national anthem.
likewise declares that I'm God Is Our
Trust" and the national hymn "America"
expresses the identical thought in the
verse beginning "Our Fathers God to
Thee, Author of Liberty" Are these sem
timents woven into the verv fiber of the
Mo nt Ip
express the real heart beat of America?
Man proposes, but God disposes, and TN
less the league of nations takes in account
not alone in words, but in spirit-the
fact of God it is foredoomed to failure.
just as every previous plan and scheme
of men to insure permanent peace has
broken down under the pressure of ma
tional ambition, hatred or avarice-traits
that have not vet been banished from the
world. There must be something more
potent than bayonets or battleships, need-
full as both are, under present world cor
ditions, as the ultimate authority. Back
of the citizens is the state-using the term
in it's broad sense-and back of the state
is. or will be, the LEAGUE of nations. Back

Our finances must be handled on a
