Investigator.

Paris. Feb. 21.-Dr. Alonzo Taylor.

interesting facts he reports:
American soldiers first Were re-
ceived cordially, but are now being
insulted by women in public places.
German soldiers no Ionser salute
their own former officers. but salute
American officers.
The morale of the Germans has
sunk so low that university men say
there is no hope in the present Ccner-
alton. Plays on degencracy occupy
the stage.
Crime of all kinds is rampant. The
answer of the police is that men can
not be trained for crime for years and
then be expected TO act as good citi-
zens
Nearly 100000 men are out OF work
in Berlin. The same proportion OBJ
tains in other places. The men do not
want work because they cannot make
as much money as the government al
lows them without work. The gov
eminent is afraid to stop these al
lowances.
Germany is willing to compensate
In money for the damage she has
done. She is unwilling to give up
Alsace-Lorraine. or to Cedo panzlS TO

thors of the war. save TlrpltZ and

The original discovery was made by a woman, and like the cyanide process, was simply developed and amplified by these interests. The use of cyani- de was known before McArthur or Forrest were born and the use of oil and other substances to float minerals was known many long years before the Minerals Separation company se- sured patents for the; process. It does not appear that any court will grant injunctions restraining the use of oil, except as set out in the order of the court, which provided for restraint of companies using less than one per cent of oil. The people who original ly made the discovery of the processes got nothing, but the fellows who "swiped" ideas made the poodle.

Toy Boats
(Eleanor Franklin Egan in the Satur-
 day Evening Post)

uos oott
 When Saint Paul was shipwreckeo in the Aegean sea the chronicler oi the incident wrote that fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day." The British inspector general of communi- cations in Mesopotamia liked to refer to this and he read somewhere once that because anchoring by the stern is against all nautical procedure this passage engaged the earnest attention of the wise men who made the King James version of the bible, and there was much discussion about it.
 The wording of it was regarded as either a mistake in the original trans lation or a slip of the pen on the part of the writer. But the subject hav- ing been referred in all solemnity to certain savants of the East was im- mediately dropped when it was learned that many ships ply up and down the Aegean coast and on the in- land waters of the ancient and un- changing world behind it that are identical as to bow and stern and can anchor either way.
 They are exactly like the toy boats you make for your little son out of sheets of notepaper.

specifications for gasoline and other petroleum prod uctS. .4.r..
 This committee consisted of the United States Fuel Administration and representatives of the War and Navy Departments, the United States Shipping the Director General of Railroads the Bureau of Mines and the Bureau of Standards
 The committee was assisted and advised by tech- nical experts from each of these departments and bodies.
 After extended discussions. exhaustive tests and experimentation, this Government committee adop- ted standard specifications for gasoline not only for aviation purposes but also for general motor use on land and sea. 7
 These United States Government specifications were drawn up with a view to providing grade of gasoline that would meet every practical require nent and yet allow maximum production. They deal with the problem the basis of the best utilization of our petroleum resources. and the maintenance of reasonable prices to the consumer.
 Drafted as they were by impartial Government ex- perts, these United States Government gasoline specifications are today being generally considered as the most practical standard for gasoline. They insure efficient and satisfactory gasoline and at the same time have due regard for the necessity of petroleum conservation.
 The gasoline being furnished today is more pow erul and gives greater mileage than the gasoline of ten years ago. Its use is made possible by the m- provements in automobile engines and methods of carburization To go back to the gasoline of ten years ago would be to accept more highly volatile but less powerful gasoline giving less mileage It would also result in decreasing the production and increasing the cost of gasoline.
 All Red Crown gasoline being supplied in the Pacific Coast states is refined to conform with the United States Government standard specifications. It has the ull uniform chain of boiling points essary for full-powered, dependable gasoline: Low boiling points for easy starting, medium boiling points for quick smooth acceleration and high boil ing points for power and mileage.
