 frage By Thursday
By Associated Press

Baton Rouge, La. May 16-The Louisiana legislature will either ratify or reject federal woman suffrage this week. probably Wednesday or Thurs day, according to political authorities who have been closely watching de- velopments of the past week.
 Adoption of a states rights measure, providing for woman suffrage by state constitutional amendment would in eff feet serve as a rejection of the federal amendment States rights bills were first introduced and anti-ra tificat tion- ists expect several senators to live up to past promises to vote for the first woman suffrage measure introduced g Ratificationists discount the value of first introductions.
 The house and senate ratification bills have been referred to committees on federal relations and the states rights bills to committees on registra- tions and elections (when appointed)
 Committees will be appointed Mon day following the inauguration of John M. Parker as governor. Upon the personnel of the committees will depend whether or not the bills will be reported favorable without public hearings. In event of favorable re- ports the bills will go to third reading and be voted upon immediately
 Governor Parker has announced he will not address the legislature in sup port of ratification. although he has been actively in favor of such action

Greatest Gains Shown In SOuth-Third of Owners
 Are Farmers

BY Associated Press

New York. May 16-Greatest gains in registration of automobiles were showil in the southern states. the Ma 'tional Automobile Chamber of Com n'efce reports in review of the alto- ricbile industry for last year In an nouncing that there were 755S,S4S motor vehicles registered in the United states, the chamber reported that one tsird of the autom obile owners are farmers and that the greatest percent age of increase in registration had Leen found in the cotton growing sec tons of the south.
 This exceptional gain. it states, is tue to the fact that there have been heavy demands for cotton during the Wal and since, which have put the south in strong financial position and has enabled thousands of cotton growers to use motor power for trans- portation, whereas in the pre-war days the greater part of Dixie was too poor t2 afford efficient farm equipment.
 North Carolina led all states in the percentage of gain in registra tions, with 51 per cent South Carolina showed the second largest state gain with 43 per cent.

PREDICTS EXHAUSTION
 OF ENTIRE SUPPLY OF Oil WITHIN 20 YEARS
sy Associated Press

Washington, May 16.-With oil con sumption in the United states exceed ing production, Director Manning or the bureau of mines predicted today that in less than 20 years the supply still under ground would be eN- hausted If the demand for gasoline and other oil products continue to in- crease as it has during the last few years the United States, he said, would have to depend on other coun- tries for part of it's supply.
 The geological survey estimates that more than 40 per cent of the supply in all oil fields in the United States has been exhausted. Director Manning said that the yield of oil from Texas fields during 1920 would be less than last year.
 Promising fields in Louisiana have proved to be large, but not as eXten- sive as many had anticipated. he said For a supply from foreign fields. the United States will have to depend largely of Mexico, Venezuela and CO Jombia, according to MT Manning who said that fields in other countries with the exception of Russia, were largely under the control of Great Britain France and the Netherlands.
