SUPPLY IF CRUDE
 OIL DIMINISHING

At the present rate of consumption the time is not far distant when the visible. supply of crude oil will be ex- hauste9, says F. r. Moskovics, vice president of the Nordyke and Marmon company. Tn a great measure, the world must look to the supply to be extracted from shale rock, of which there seems to be an almost mex haustble supply.
 "Geologists who have the ground well mapped, place the visible supply of crude oil at about 14.000, ,000, GOO barrels. This country is usuing an nually about f0,000,0 900 barrels in ex- cess of production. One may almost count on ones fingers when the total supply will be exhausted.
 However, we need have no worry in regard to the fuel situation. The bureau of mines has found a substi- tute for the crude that we now secure by drilling, and that is crude extracted from shale that is found in immense deposits in Colorado and Utah. So far, this cannot be extracted and placed on the market to retail at less than 90 cents the gallon. The problem that faces the automobile engineer IS the evolving of an engine that will make this new fuel propel a car two miles instead of one on the same amount of fuel l may say that the leading lights in the engineering field are already at work on this problem.
 The problem is not of carburetion it is matter of distribution Of fuel in the cylinders, and the fewer the cylinders and the lighter the car. the easier the task; two motor car fea lures every prospect should consider when he investigates a car.
 He will find that the Marmon 34 for instance. holds an enviable posi- tion on fuel, oil and tire economy Twelve to 14 miles per gallon of fuel for car of 136 inches is unusual economy and this is what the Marmon does habitually. Fifty to 75 Der cent greater tire mileage than compara ble cars IS also an established Mormon | average.

MESA E SPEEDING
 UP IN LOAN DRIVE

MESA, April 2s-Mesa is waking up. The lethargy of the past week as pertaining to the Victory loan, is pass ing and yesterdays renewed impetus scored a notable advance, the total at the close of business being s1S90.
 With an apportionment of S60,0O0 there yet remains much of the land to be possessed" and the committees are beginning to realize it, since yes terday afternoon at headquarters the matter of sitting out the hard ones reminded one of the days of the former loans when no man was allowed to escape.
 It is noticed, however, that the amounts being purchased by individ- uals are smaller than in the former loans, there seeming to be a tendency to turn loose as small an amount of money as possible in order to raise the apportionment. | is probable that there will have to be a considerable loosening up Of this attitude if Mesa is not to fall behind.

The crates weigh 24 pounds, and for several weeks were quote dat s20 per crate. One lawyer there had 40 acres in asparagus and claimed that he made $20,OO0 off the crop. Asked as to why the Mesa sec ton could not do likewise, MT. Keith explained that the prices received for the Imperial crop lasted only until the Illinois crop was ready. and that the Salt River valley would find itself in competitor with the last named state, which would put this section on a low market.

LEVIATHAN'S JOURNEY
(Waahington Postl


 An American soldier. sailor or civil ian who had the good fortune to make the trip from Europe on the Leviathan on her voyage bearing some 9000 re- turning Americans will always remem- Der 1t as one of the mileStones of his lIfe'S journey remarked Horace Will Hamson, a New York newspaper. man, at the Washington. "The L4aviathan left Liverpool at o'clock on Sunday after having been docked for two days with all souls on board. She proceeded to Brest and remained there five days coaling. During all that time the pas sengers were not allowed to go ashore, but they enjoyed themselves. neverthe- less. When finally the big German built steamer weighed anchor and be- gan to move on it's homeward voyage to America, the scene was inde- scribable. It takes but two days to coal a big vessel in New York, but the coaling at Brest had to be done by baskets, and the delay, of course, was strenuous.
 The irony of fate never had a bet ter exemplification than in the service done by the Leviathan during the war. The former Vaterland. largest ship afloat, made many trips back and forth carrying soldiers Her first voyage under the United States flag after she had been repaired for service was to Cuba and Porto Rico. After that she went back and forth between New York and France.
 ''No person who was not on board the Leviathan when she steamed into New York a short time ago can appre- ciate the feeling of delight and intense patriotism that swept over the passen- gers on the giant vessel. From the highest to the lowest it was 8 feeling of great joy. of victory, of work done. I talked with scores of the boys re- turning from the numerous sections of the war zone, and l found not one who said he would have missed the ex- periencen
