loting closes.
\ request for the opening of the
gallery tonight and next Friday even
ing was first received from the con-
ference OF federal social service
workers. which has a large member
ship. This request crystalliZed a pre-
vious idea that the general public
was likely to appreciate and utilize
such an opening.
In addition to government employees
in this organization, there are thou
sands of others in federal employ.
in stores and in offices who must have
been prevented from attending the
exhibition in the daytime. G. Powell

fields, estimated at so per cent or
the gas used, and of appliance manu-
facturers in producing and seeking
the greater use of improved gas
burning appliances was pledged by
those attending the conference.
A committee of ten. representing
all interests involved, was appointed
by the conference to cooperate with
the Department of the Interior in
carrying on an educational campaign
through states and local agencies.
Van II. Manning, director of the
bureau of mines, told the conference
that the chief effort at conservation
should be centered on Improvement
in the utilization of natural gas in
industry and in the homes. The con-
suming public, he said. probably has
been "even more improvident and
wasteful than the producer" The
natural gas resources of the nation,
the speaker added. have been the
least appreciated and the most
abused" of all it's mineral resources.
Secretary Lane opened the confer
ence with an address. in which he
urged conservation of our natural
resources.
