THE GAS MASK
IN CIVIL LIFE
limited Press serxicel

WILLOWS, March 24.-To prove
that the United States army mask
could defy the deadly fumes of one
of the largest gasoline reservoirs as
well as the. Huns poison gas, Ira
Woodruff cleaned out an empty tank
here belonging to the Standard Oil
company.
The work of cleaning out these
tanks has heretofore been too dan
gerous to attempt since the fumes
would in a minutes time suffocate
any workman lowered through the
small opening provided. The result
of Woodruff's experiment was imme-
diately telegraphed to company head
quarters following the completion of
the feat. It is believed that the
Standard Oil Company may try to-
buy some of the gas-helmets to use
for such purposes.

Every Club of S25 In Campaign Collections Turned In
Before Saturday Night March 20, Will Give You
175,OOO Extra Votes-Bring In AS Many Clubs
as You Can-Take Advantage of This Offer

field you should be able to not only
win a prize, but win one of the big
gest. No restrictions are placed upon
you. Votes may be gathered and
subscriptions secured wherever you
may secure them.
Small Payments
Here is an idea that may prove
of assistance to you. No doubt you
have approached subscribers at the
start of the campaign, and they have
given a subscription for six months.
Visit these people again and get them
to pay the balance of years SUBJ
scription. In majority of cases
subscribers are very willing to do
this because they want the paper any
lway and are willing to help you by
paying in advance for this period.
For example: A person who subscrib-
ed to The Daily Morning Oasis for
six months and paid 81, receiving
5000 votes for the subscription. By
getting this person to pay the $3.50
additional to make up the years sub
scription of $3.50 you will be given
the difference between the votes al
lowed on a six months subscription
and those allowed for the full year,
which in this case would be 1900
votes. When turning in these always
mark your stub second payment"
Second Extra Vote Offer
Every candidate who bring or sends
in $25 in campaign collections before
9 pm. Saturday, March 20, will be
given a vote ballot good for $4,000
EXTRA VOTES in addition to the
regular votes. REMEMBER, you can
bring in as many clubs of $25 on this
extra vote offer as it is possible for
you to secure, and you get 175,000
extra votes on every club. If you
will bring in $50 you will get $4,000
extra votes; if you bring in $75, you
will get 525,0000 extra votes; if you
bring in 500, you will get 100000
extra votes, and so on.
Closing of Second Vote offer
Do not lose sight of the fact that
the big 175,000 extra vote offer closes
next Saturday night at 9 o'clock.
Make every minute count from now
until then, and don't lose a second
of it. If you have secured one club
start right out after another. Get
as many clubs as possible.
Kampaign KOmment
Keep plugging along ALL the time.

do likewise if you hope to be success

THE SITUATION IS
FULL OF DYNAMITE
Peace Conference Blamed
Germany to. Be Manda-
tory in Central Europe
lUnited Press service)

PARIS, March "a Many officials
here express a belief that the world
faces now an indefinitely more SER
ious situations than year 40 when
Gernany's big offensive was launch
ed in the west. They declare that
now there is threatening great fl
nancial, economic and social collapse,
instead of the military defeat which
seemed so imminent a year ago.
Experts agree that every days de-
lay in signing peace treaty brings
a general crisis nearer. There is a
tendency this morning to view as a
real crisis Hungary's action in form
ing new Soviet republic in alliance
with the Russian Bolshevik govern
ment, and that thereby the Bolshevik
menace has increased one hundred
fold
One leading authority here called
attention to the fact that year ago
everyone in the world was either
working or fighting, and he pointed
out the alleged fact that now every
thing is tending toward stagnation
and disorder unless speedy counter
action is taken. He criticised the
Peace Council for the constant ten
dency manifested to drag in extran-
eous questions.
Other authorities expressed be-
lief that Hungary's present action
has furnished an explanation why
Germany has been dilatory obstruc-
tive in her attitude towards the peace
conference. 1t is believed that Ger
many will offer now to protect Eu-
rope against Bolshevikism, in return
for milder peace terms.
1t is admitted here that the situa-
tion is full of dynamite, and that it
may get far beyond Allied control
unless immediate action is taken.
One solution of the problem sug-
gested is formation of an inter-Allied
expeditionary force to operate against
Hungary and Russia. Another plan
proposed is to permit Germany to
handle the situation, virtually MAX
ing Germany mandatory for Central
Europe.

BORDER PATROL TO
USE AEROPLANES
United Press Servicel

Ell PASO, March 24.-The report
ed killing of five Mexicans in battle
with United States cavalrymen, who
chased bandits into Mexico, has CIV
en- a new impetus to plans for re-
storing order along the border.
Use of airplane squadrons for bor-
der patrol is the outstanding feature
OF plans nav being formulated.
The necessity of new steps to
handle the border situation is brought
forcibly forward by this latest raid,
also by strong denials of the Car
ranza governments claim that Lo-
pei, Holguin and Hipolito Villa, not
ed bandit leaders, had been killed.

WORLD CONDITIONS ARE
DECLARED VERY SERIOUS
INTERESTING CASE
: IN SUPERIOR COURT

Yesterday afternoon in the Super
ior Court, Judge w. A. O'Connor, pre-
siding, there was heard a case that
had been appealed from the justice S
court in Vaughn precinct, wherein
there arose some interesting points.
The title of the case is "Sonoita Mer-
camille Company VS.. Brookings." In
fact it was two cases.. The plaintiff
had sued upon two accounts, and had
been granted judgment upon both.
Jointly the two accounts exceeded
5000, which sum is the limit of any
claim or account that a Justices court
can take under it's jurisdiction.
Plaintiff had been given a judgment
in each case and defendants had five
days in which to appeal to the Super
ior Court. But appeal was not taken
in that time. Ten days after judg-
ment counsel for defendant appeared
before the justice at Vaughn, and
presented written motion asking
rehearing. That motion was denied.
Upon denial of that motion counsel
for defendant entered an appeal. The
case yesterday consisted IN argument
upon the question whethr the court
could take jurisdiction, the contention
of counsel for appellee (Sonoita Mer-
camille Company being that a motion
denied in Justices court is not ap-
pealable.
While not brought seut in the case
at this time one of the points invol-
ed, perhaps, is that the cases are real
ly one, and that in the magnitude of
the amount claimed, if it were put
into one case, it would have been
beyond jurisdiction in Justices
court, and would have had to come
to the superior court at the begin
ming.
Attorneys S. F. Noon and Duane
Bird appeared for the appellee, and
the appellant was reresented by Bar
ry & Barry.
