THE VICTORY LOAN.

The Victory Loan is certainly the
most attractive of all the obligations
yet offered by the government to its
people in support of the war.
The loan is among the smallest yet
offered. The obligations are short
term, with attractive convertible
privileges. The interest rate is the
highest. In their present form they
will hardly ever go below par and
they will be as standard in value as
a treasury certificate. They are the
safest, surest and best investment
in America today

Friday Columbus Journeyed over to
West Point for the second game with
them, having won the first on the
local grounds sometime ago, 6 TO 3.
Our batsmen had no mercy on Bro
gan, West Points star pitcher and
put the game in the sack in the first
two innings by putting ten batsmen
on bases for as many runs. After
the first two innings our boys slowed
down and though time and again they
put runners on bases and threatened
to score no more tallies were made.
The final score was 10 to 3.
West Point has a splendid diamond
and our lads took advantage of it, not
a single bobble being made during
the entire game. Bell pitched his
second game of the week and went
even stronger than in the game be-
fore. The West Pointers have a rep
utation for hard hitting but some
how this quality of baseballing was
sadly lacking for them. They knock
ed only four balls to the outfield.
Also eight of the Lynch High lads
struck out, .h;s making 2s men Bell
has struck out in three games, a
record any high school boy should be
proud of. Fred Propst's work at the
bat and in the field was good. Also
Land, Lipscomb, VERIFY and Brewster
showed up well with the willow.
Quite a crowd of Columbus rooters
accompanied the team to West Point
and witnessed the victory. The spirit
and support of the hackers of our
team should not be overlooked.

which deserves the support of the
whole community. Let's back up the

Last Wednesday afternoon Column

of base ball than in the game with

most perfect and in spite of the

one error. Ted Patton did excep-

robbing two batsmen of what looked
to be clean hits by his fast fielding.

new crisis is threatened between the
United States and Mexico. 1t appears
due to an alleged action py the Ca
rranZa government preventing the
drilling of new oil wells by American
companies.
1t is stated that secret negotiations
are in progress between this govern
ment and Mexico City. The notes
forwarded by the State Department
are not being given publicity because
the matter is domestic to Mexico.
1t is reported that within the last
six months three notes from the State
Department to President Carranza
regarding the oil situation have been
ignored by Mexico. The present
situation is becoming so obnoxious to
this government that Secretary Lam
sing is reported to have under consid-
Grafton a determination to send to
Carranza sharp communication in
forming him flatly that he must stop
interfering with .Aerican oil opera
tions.
At the Mexican embassy it was as
serted that reports of interference
with American oil drilling operations
in Mexico are without foundation.

EUROPE SUFFERS

S U BS TIT U TE S
Austria Is Turning Atten-
To Petroleum, Produced
In Great Abundance In
Eastern Europe
BY EDWARD J. BING

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
VIENNA, (By Mail. jim view of
the general shortage of coal here, the
question of the production of other
fuel has again become extremely i'm
portant. Special attention in finan-
cial circles is being paid to oil and pc
troleum which Eastern Europe used
to produce in abundance.
The expectation and the equal judi
cious distribution of the material,
however is rendered particularly diff
ficult to-day by the exceptionally
grave political situation of the produc-
ing countries as well as by the devas-
tations of which this territory was the
theatre. This refers above all to the
oil wells of Galacia and Roumania,
while the oil occurrences of Baku, on
the Caspian Sea, and Kerkuk- -Chani-
kin still deserve the greatest atten-
tion in the Far East. The extra
ordinary abundance of the latter's
products was one of the principal
reasons why the British Naval craft
was reconstructed for oil heating.
While the petroleum and oil pro.
duction of Asia is more or less in
British hands already, there ought to
be good~opportunity for the invest
ment of 1nerican capital in Galicia
and Roumania. American business
interests, however, must be aware of
the fact that one of the most urgent
and indispensable tasks in regard to
rational exploitation of the oil wells
in that part of the world will be their
reconstruction, aiming at bringing
about the pre-war standard of pro-
duction. While the output of mineral
oil in Galicia-which centered in
Droholobyez and the neighboring ter
ritories-was very great in normal
times, a considerable number of wells
have been choked and devastated dur
ing the course of the numerous bat
ties which took place there between
the Russians and the Austrians; even
after the armistice and right now
this territory is the subject of dis
pute between the Poles and the Uk-
rainians; the wells are partly in Brit
ish and partly in American and Aus
trian hands.
AS to- the Roumanian oil wells, a
considerable part of these is not now
in working order, which is chiefly due
to the military measures taken by
the allies at the time of the German
advance in Roumania. Although

struction of the destroyed wells,

WASHINGTON, Dec, 1.-THE re-
ply of the Mexican government to re-
presentations made by this country
with regard to the murder of James
Wallace, an American, near Tampico,
several weeks ago, was received by
the State Department today. Wallace,
who was an employee of an Ameri-
can Oil Company operating in the vi
cinity of Tampico, was killed by a
Carranza soldier.
The Mexican explanation of Wal
lace's murder is a reiteration of the
claim made by Mexican Ambassador
Bonillas that, while intoxicated Wal
lace failed to heed an order to halt
by a Carranza soldier, who was walk
ing his beat as sentry; and that the
soldier fired the fatal shot believing
Wallace an enemy.
According to the Mexican note the
murder of Wallace was made a mat
ter of official record. Arrest of the
Mexican soldier involved was order
ed, and an investigation followed i'm
mediately, the result being exonera-
tion of the soldier and his discharge
from custody.
According to the State Department
report received from the scene of the
murder, Wallace was shot when the
mule that he was riding SHE'D and
overturned a machine gun.

was ordered forwarded to the State
Department from the American En-
bassy at Mexico City.
