Express Tangle Settled

A misplaced tariff supplement ac-
counts for the apparent discrimination
IN charges that have been made from
Hood River to points in southern and
southeastern states. Under old tariffs,
before the amalgamaton of all express
companies into the American Railway
Express Co., points served exclusively
by the old Southern Express Co. de
manded charge materially in excess
of that on shipments to cities and
towns served by other concerns. The
charge was equalzed when the anal.
gamation was effected, but the amend
ed tariff supplement for the local office
was lost.
The apparent dissemination caused a
complaint from Hood River to the In.
terstate Commerce Commission with
the result that the extra charge will
not again be assessed. and the sum of
$l.s6 per, box will be refunded on all
boxes already shipped under the old
tariff.

GASOLINE MAKES
ADVANCE IN PRICE

The announcement appearing below
as well as the advertisement Of other
columns. should have been printed IN
last weeks Glacier but arrived too
late. due To interrupted railway ser
Vicel.
Elsewhere in this paper the Standard
Oh Co. announces an advance in the
price Of gasoline of Il cents per gallon
effective December Z. 1919. Ii is said
that this advance is necessary TO meet
the extra cost of refining ana handling
special gasoline required under the eX-
isting Oregon state law.
j. +. Balslev, district sales manager
Of the company saws;
ITO meet the requirements of the
I existing Oregon state law, which spec
ities that gasoline shall be of SO de-
grees gravity BaGme test, to be sale
able in the state. il is necessary for
/ the Standard OIL Co. 10 make a special
| gasoline. This special gasoline, al
/ though of no greater efficiency than
I the gasoline regularly refined by US
and sold In Washington, California and
elsewhere, IS more expensive to furn.
ish because il requires special refining
and handling. Also there is a lower
4 yield of this special gasoline from the
crude oil than there is Of our regular
l gasoline. with consequent increase in
the cost of the special gasoline. The
advance in the price does not fully
/. represent the additional cost to the
Standard OIL Company Of manufac-
turing the special gasoline. At the
same time the higher price of the
special gasoline does not secure for the
user any greater value than IS given in
our regular gasoline.
\ The Oregon state law establishes
gravity specification for gasoline.
This is in itself mistake. for gravity
-ells nothing about the conclusive, or
power. qualities Of gasoline. This was
clearly pointed out by the United
States fuel administration committee
on standard specifications for gasoline.
As a result the government adopted
boiling point standards for aviation
and all other motor gasoline purchased
Oy the government.
"Our regular gasoline comes within
the United States government standard
specifications. 1t is refined to a set
/ specification of chain of boiling points
determined by our experts as being
that which will give the maximum
power and mileage consistent with due
regard to gasoline conservation and
the maintenance Of reasonable prices
to the consumer.
Another lsmentable phase of the
Oregon state law is that it limits the
possible extraction Of gasoline from
the crude oil and thus operates direct
ly against gasoline conservation, max
ing less plentiful and more costly the
supply. The demand for gasoline is
growing faster than the supply and it
is unfortunate that anything should be
done to decrease the production Of
good gasoline.

points out that French has been the
language of diplomacy since the eight

French is not superior to other IAN
guages, 1t is recognized as peculiarly
adapted for clearly and unambiguously
expressing fine shades of thought.
The Matin recalls that at Karlstnr

BIG APPETITE FOR
SAFE INVESTMENTS
Between Twenty and Twenty
Five Million Bond Buyers
Take Billions IN Short Pc

Pessimists who shake their heads
and Join the chorus Of II dunno" boys
at the prospect OF floating a fifth Lib
erty Loan in April are administered
knock out by figures which have re-
Gently been compiled by officials OF
the Treasury Department at Wash
ington.
The figures give an idea OF Just
how big an appetite for safe investment
thi. country has attained in its war
year Some OF the more striking OF
. the figures referred to follow:
A bond market which had less than
300, 900 customers two years ago had
at the close Of 1898 between 10000
600 and $4,000 600 buyers. The army
OF buyers absorbed $11156 565,S5O
worth OF bonds in Liberty Bonds alone
IN 1918.
In the two years on the war-couht-
ing the first and second Liberty
Loans which were foated in 1911
these bond buyers digested total OF
sl6.974329.S50 in Liberty bonds.
This healthy condition OF the bond
market is explained. perhaps, by the
fact that the entire Indebtedness OF
the United States today amounts to
slightly less than per cent OF the
estimated national wealth. The ma,
tional debt amounts to only about
$40 per capita.
Some Of the national debts are:
Great Britain, 44,3 per cent cent. OF

France, 4125 per cent Of national
wealth or $4,000 per capita; Austria,

French girls who have had an oppor-

appreciate the easy camaraderie be-
tween the sexes, and they come to the
conclusion that a good comrade must
make good husband.
Some fair writer's say that French
Romeos are given to talking overnuch

appearance. The question as to
whether a man ought to shave or not
