If a railroad wreck delays his train
he resorts to the. automobile. This
happened the other day when, on re-
turning from his vacation in Vendee,
a wrecked freight train blocked the
track.
To one of the members Of the

about it, the premier denied that his
plan Of carrying his automobile by
train implied lack of confidence in
the ability Of hts colleague, Minister
of Railways Claveille, to operate his

the steel tanks for the storage Of oil
have q capacity Of $4,000 900 barrels.
Commenting Upon these figures the
statement says that the Mexican oil
industry has not yet equalled the
American because of the lack Of
ean of transportation and Of stor-

serted that the potential production
of the fields is ninefold greater than
that registered at the present time.

MUCH LAND IN
ENGLAND HAS
OWNERS

London, Aug. 21.-(Correspond-
ence of the Associated Press)-The
land of England is changing owner
ship under the operations Of the land
settlement bill. Large tracts are be-
ing acquired by county councils
which are selling them in small hold
ings to persons who make annual
payments for them.
Until the enactment of the meas
ure England was the only country
in Europe which denied to the small
er cuitivators of the land sufficient
facilities to enable them to purchase
their holdings. In Germany sc per
cent of the cultivated land was owned
by the men who worked it while only
IL per cent Of the small %agricultur-
alists of England owned their own
farms.
Before the war the government en-
ergetically opposed the policy Of oc-
cupying ownership for Englishmen,
Walshmen and Scotchmen. but helped
Irishmen to own the ground they till.
Thus far 100000 holdings containing
13,500,000 acres have been sold to
Irish farmers, leaving only about Co.,
900 holdings to be sold. But the Eng
lish farmer is just as anxious as any
to own his own farm, and under the
new law he will soon do it.
