AND SLIGO, =? p?

The attitude of the secretary Of
the navy toward oil producers and
refiners, is beyond understanding.
The whole world is crying for pct
roleum products. Various depart
ments of the government are sen lag
out volumes of statistics showing how
production is unable to keep up with
demand and congress is about 10 com
plete legislation which viii permit
development of thousands of acres of
withdrawn oil lands. The fuel adj
ministration increased price of fuel
oil to producers 25 cents a barrel at
the well so that marketing compan'
les and refiners now pay the proouc-
er S1.23 barrel for his oil. All
this was done to encourage increased
production. Then out of a clear sky
the secretary of the navy orders Cal
ifornia oil companies to deliver fuel
oil for the navy at tidewater points
for SO cents, barrel when the mar
ket price paid by the largest con5uIn-
ers is s1.6O a barrel and when the
marketing companies pay thousa uds
of oil well owners $1,23 a barrel for
the crude oil at the well.
During the war fuel oil was re-
Questioned by the government Mt
$1.40 per barrel with the provision
that the seller could accept rs per
of the price offered and sue the SO ..

basis individual compapies are still

THE VOLCANO SMOKES

The conservative workmen of the
United States should begin to do
some thinking.
Radicals of the l. w. w stripe
threaten to do the abuse of honest
labor unspeakable harm, 1t is no
longer a question of work or of wag-
es. 1t is question of taking the
industries of the country by the
throat and compelling them to recog-
nize, whether they wish to do so or
not, the sovereignty OF few radi-
calls who claim to represent organ
lied labor.
The American workingman has al
ways been distinguished above e~-
Ierything else for his common sense,
his good Judgment and his patriotism.
All Of these make a burning appeal
to him at this hour to denounce I'M
sond leadership and everything o.

any just compensation which may be
decided upon for them and II they
don't sign 1t would appear that their
properties are subject to confiscation.
The point for every citizen to con-
slider is this Should a public -otn
cial in peace times have the absolute
power and authority to set aside mar
ket prices, make his own arbitrarilv
figures, require private citizen TO
sell at ruinous price under fear of
confiscation and in general exercise
lautocratic control over private indus
try of any kind in the United States
Such procedure is basolutely un-
called for, unjust and unAmerican.
II IL is allowed to pass unchallenged
there is no reason why the naval or
military departments cannot require
a farmer, fruit grower. manufactures
or producer of any kind to deliver his
goods at half price subject to such
adjustment as the buyer sees tit to
make at some future unspecified
date.
The navy department should be
held to strict account for the unwar-
ranted action and full publicity Civ

THE SURRENDER HABIT

Some unknown nation forced President
Wilson to surrender our right to pass our
coastwise traffic through the Panama
canal free of tolls; Columbia forced him
to surrender $25,00O,000 of good Ameri-
can coin as the price Of her friendship;
Japan forced him to surrender principle
in order that Shantung might remain un-
der japanese domination; the railroad
brotherhoods forced him to surrender un-
der threat of destruction of industry in
1916; the militant suffragists forced him
to surrender on the equal suffrage am
endment; but now, without any apparent
forcing, he voluntarily proposes to sur
render American sovereignty to league
of nations, in which Great Britain will
have six votes to our one. Evidently he
has acquired the surrender habit so
strongly that it has become second ma

BE 1T EVER so HUMBLE

There's no place like home.
That is an old song but greater truth.
There is a great difference between a
home owner and renter.
The difference is as great as between
a land owner and tenant farmer.
The home owner pays taxes and in
surance but he pays no rents.
The improvements he makes and the
increase in value of property are all his.
Banks and commercial clubs can do no
better service than to enable people to
own their own homes
Build home and own home are as
vital as get wife and raise fmily.
Famaily and home are the basis of our
civilization and tenantry are alien to AM
erican institutions.
