No USE TO RELY ON
GAS, CORPORATE
COMMISSIONER SAYS

From Oklahoma city Times, yesterday
There is absolutely no use for the
people Of Oklahoma City or any other
city in the state to rely entirely on
natural gas for fuel purposes during
cold weather such as swept the state
yesterday, bringing unprecedented suf-
fering on account Of insufficient gas
and coal shortage.
There is only one solution Of the
problem and that rests with the people
not the gas company-.and that is to in
stall equipment for the use of coal,
wood and fuel Oil.
This is the substance Of a statement
today BY A. L. Walker, chairman OF
the corporation commission, and former
head Of the state oil and gas conser.
vation department, after a thorough
survey Of the situation in the gas fields
and the efforts made by gas companies
to keep supply at normal during low
temperatures.
I'VE have studied the gas shortage
situation from every angle. We have
had our experts in the field to keep
close tab on the efforts OF the gas
companies to relieve the situation. and
| am convinced that when the tenn
perature goes down to the point reached
yesterday it is a physical impossibility
for the Oklahoma Natural or any other
gas company to force enough gas
through its mains to meet the extra
demands" said Walker.
IL am satisfied that the Oklahoma
Gas and Electric company. the Okla
homa Natural which is the producing
company, and in fact every gas com
pany in the state has made an honest
effort to keep production at norma
during the extreme cold weather, but
rs stated before the full attainment Of
this is q physical impossibility. There
is not city in the United States
which relies upon gas that does mo-
experience gas shortage when temper
atures are low. During cold weather
gas condenses in the mains; the car

CA R RA MA FORCES A 7
THREE POINTS, REPO RT

Eagle Pass, Texas, Dec. 12-Fight-
ing between Mexican federal troops and
Villstas was reported at three places
today in the vicinity of Muzquiz, Goa
hula. Reports that 1000 Villa men
were engaged We're denied by CarranZa
sources. Villistas were reported still
holding Muzqui2.
Other reports that could not be con-
firmed were that Villistas We're ap-
preaching Piedras Negras, the Mexican
town opposite Eagle Pass and were
within 40 miles of the town, and that
the rebels had blown up two troop
trains.
Five hundred Mexican federal troops
sent by special train, encountered the
Villista force that raided Muzqulz, state
of Coahuia. Fighting was reported in
progress late yesterday, according to
information received here today. The
Villa force comprised nearly 400 men.
Five wealthy merchants and ranch
men of MuZquiz are reported in the
hands of the Villistas who are holding
them for $4,000 ransom each Among
them are Francisco pardo, a Spaniard,
and Francisco Mlrand, both ranch
men. 1t is not stated whether Pardo
now is a Spanish citizen.
The outcome of the fight at Palu
was in doubt at the time the report re-
ceived here originated. 1t was be-
leved the Villa force. commanded by
Hipolto Villa, was endeavoring TO re-
turn to the state of Chihuahua with
loot taken in the Muzquiz raid. which
took place early Tuesday.
Wire communication with Muzqulz
had not been restored up to II a. m.
today at Piedras Negras, the Mexican
town opposite thi scity, and train SER
vice was not resumed. Communica-
| ton is intact between Muzquiz and
Saltillo, but movement Of trains has
been suspended as precautionary
measure,

Saying Cure for Social Unrest
Is Fuller knowledge of America

/ do say mistakes will be fewer and

governments ere guided by we'll
informed public opinion.
Unrest is evident everywhere
throughout the world. II is not OF
itself a disease, but a symptom OF
disease. In our own country the
disease lies principally outside the
government. Those who think
otherwise are mostly the newcom-
ers. The cure for their disquiet is
n fuller knowledge of American
institutions. In this nation the
people have in their ballots the in
struments Of peaceful change.
I'VE can know il change is de-
sirable only by knowing all the
facts about the thing we wish to
alter. The journals that give the
facts about government, its policies
and activities, set down by the men
principally responsible for them,

which the government can report

MEXICAN OFFICIAL IN
DENIAL OF FALL STORY
DENIES CONQUEST IDEA

Mexico City, Thursday. Dee. H.
Mexico nev as contemplated or con
sidered III ption of the plan Of
San Diego" 40 the purpose Of securing
portions OF the southwestern territory
Of the United States, declared Manuel
Aguirre Berlnga, minister of interior
today. This statement was made when
the minister's attention was called 10
charges recently made by United States
Senator FAN of New Mexico.
Senator Fails charges We're contain
ed in a memorandum submitted to
President Wilson on December S.
Among other things the senator alluded
to a plot said to have originated at a
small town, San Diego, Texas, and
made public at Monterey, Mexico, early
in 1915.
It was declared that on February 20,
1915, there should arise n revolution
against the government of the United
States, that the Independence nj Texas
New Mexico, AriZona, Colorado and
upper California would be proclaimed
and that these states, after being de.
cared an Independent republic would
request annexation to Mexico.
In conclusion, Senator Fails report
said "At the very moment Of closing
this investigation Of the acts Of Car
rama, in favoring and attempting tc
carry out the plan Of San Diego, evi
dence was brought to the committee not
only Of the propaganda efforts OF the
Carranza government, but other evi
dence showing that Carrann himself
directly was now engaged in assisting
in the formulation or at least with the
knowledge that plans were being formed
similar 10 those in the plan of San Die

HUNS TRYING To GAIN
TIME IN EFFORT TO
RESIST TREATY TERMS

Berlin, Thursday, Dec 1.-Ger-
many's reply to. the last notes from the
supreme council OF the peace confer.
ence has been sent TO Versailles. Its
general tenor reciprocstes the concilia.
tory tone Of the last communication
from the entente.
Reports state that the reply renews
the governments disclaimer Of respon.
sibility for the sinking of interned Ger
man warships of Scnpa Flow, and sets
forth exceptions to the supreme coun'
ellis insistence upon compensation for
the scuttled vessels 1t is said to claim
that the Objectionable passage from the
letter from Admiral Won Troth0, head
Of the German admiralty, to Admiral
Won Reuther, commander II the Ger
man ships was not translated proper
ly and that it was "out OF context with
the rest of the letter.
On the proposition that Germany
sign the protocol to the peace treaty
and permit the issue involving the se'
lection of indemnity tonnage TO be
adjusted later, it Is reported the note
proposes that the latter be submitted
forthwith to a body of experts. This
stand Is taken because Of the import
ance of the matter of German harbor
facilities 1t is hoped TO obtain a con
cession OF the Scapa Flow issue and
it is believed the note indicates a meas
ure of obstinancy over yielding on this
point.
| Reports declare that there are nc
! ntimations in the German reply thai
the Berlin government has taken
position that failure to ratify the treaty
by the United States has created ar
altered situation; and it is hinted, II
| is said, that the treaty action by the
| United States senate purely internal

the other powers from the obligation
of exchanging notifications.
| Belief is expressed here that the re
ply attempts TO temporize in an effort
to obtain modification Of the demand
for indemnity for vessels sunk at Scapo
Flow. 1t is said that the reply seeks
to persuade the entente that demands
