NEW LIGHTS
 ON TRAINING
 DE VETERANS
Federal Board Report Shows
 Over 24,OOO Disabled Men Being Aided.

The recent report issued by the ton reveals that A odd thousand dis abled soldiers, sailors and marin es are being retrained in a wide variety of vocational occupations. An out standing feature of the report is the retraining which is being granted to the nurses and other women who took an active part in the winning of the war and were disabled while performing their duties.
 The report showed that approxi- mate1y 34 pei cent of the entire number are enrolled in trade and in- dustrial groups; about 32 per cent. qualified for business and commercial training; more than IS per cent. are fitting themselves for agricultural pursuits, with strong indications that the percentage of those taking agri- culture will be more than doubled only 16 per cent. were given pro- fessional studies.
 Varified Training
 The number of vacations in which the veterans are being retrained are many and varied. In the trades alone, men are being fitted for the ex- pert use of every known tool in any mechanical field.
 Those veterans who are taking in- struction in business and commerce. invariably aspire to administrative positions. In the professions 1,555 have chosen scientific courses The study ef medicine finds 59S enrolled Theology is being closely studied bS about 50 veterans.
 A careful survey made by officers of the Federal Board for Vocationa Education has brought to light ver5 few who were dissatisfied with the training given them. Every effort ha! been made to see that the retrainins Of these men has been complete il every detail, and those whose course! have been finished are now embarked upon a civil career, capable of com manding big pay, independent in tht knowledge that they are masters il their particular lines, and eztremel, grateful to the Government whicf has made all this possible.

DEMAND FOR OIL
 IS FAR AHEAD
 OF PRODUCTION
Shortage of Supply Will Probably Cause
 Advance.

With the growing shortage Of sup plies due to the inability of the oil fields to keep pace with the demand. indications point to serious situa- 'tion confronting the oil industry in the United States.
 Pennsylvania crude is now selling at Q higher price than at any time since the earliest days of the indus try, and proportionate advances have been made in the oil fields of Okla homa, Texas and Louisiana. From authoritative sources, still higher prices are predicted for 1920, mean ing biger earnings and a greater mar gin of profits for all oil-producing companies.
 Another result of the boom is the increased value of potential oil-pro- ducing lands and of stocks which re-
 present properties of that character. Oil issues promise to be among the
 most active during 1920. In well in- formed circles it is generally believed that a geater oil-share boom will be witnessed during the coming months than any that has been experienc eG in the past.
 The smaller independent as well as the larger companies are expected to
 
 promising of these smaller companies which are carrying out development operating under experienced manage. iTnent and with ample financial re { sources is the United Texas Petroleum | Company, which owns a large acreage l in Maverick county, Texas, and in tht i famous Bull Bayou district, Louisiana Following the striking of oil a
 1, 400 foot point in Maverick county ! though in a quantity not sufficient tt i make a commercial well, preparation 1 are being made to penetrate to depth of 2,700 feet and drilling oper ations are being actively pushed t reach that point.
 | The finding of oil at the 1,400 foo ] point is regarded as establishing tn ] correctness of the geological deduc
 tions from an inspection of the sur
 face of the property by well-knowl geo1ogist, prior to it's acquisition b. !, the United States Texas Company. 1 In the Bull Bayou district, grea 1 activity Is in progress, all around tn ! United Texas property. Bull Bayo1
 is regarded as one of the best ol l fields in the United States.

JAPAN IS NOW
 COMPETITOR FOR
 CHEMICAL TRADE
Unethical Methods Cause
 Criticism of Japs.

How Japan has become a com petttor for the chemical trade of the East and is stretching her hands out to the West Is shown in an analysis prepared by a well = known expert, o. P. Hopkins, of Washing ton, who has prepared a survey from governmental statistics.
 The matter is of deep interest not only to the American chemical manufacturer and makers of allied ture of iodine and potash from kelp, of glycer1n, paints, fertilizers, the products, because of the cheap labor with which they must reckon, as well as certain unethica1 methods which have caused criticism even in official Japanese circles.
 "The boom in the Japanese chem ical industry writes MT. Hopkins in the current number of the -Four nal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry" of the American Chem ical Society, resulted from the same l circumstances that brought about Q similar development in the United States-the cutting off of European | supplies, with the consequent rise l of prices, and the insistent demand ] for munitions at very high prices" | The Japanese were even more un- | prepared than we were to meet the | situation that arose when war was | declared, and they have naturally not been able to achieve the same measure of success as we have, ani I their present position is deserving l of the most careful study.
 Their efforts have been directed
 mainly toward the development of 2 1 coa1-tar industry, the production o: alkalies for the paper, glass and soaT
 industries, progress in metal refin
 ing and the greatest possible utili
 zation of water power in electro chemical processes. The manufac 1 tanning of skins and hides, ana
 many minor lines have also beer pushed energetically. The matcI 1 industry was well established befor the war.
 There are many factors that favo
 the present programme. Wate | power Is abundant, cheap and wei
 distributed throughout the indus | trial regions. Few concerns pay a
 high as two cents per kilowatt-hou u
 and some pay less than one cent
 Certain raw materials are had i
 great abundance, either from Jap
 anese sources or from easily access sible sources in nearby countries
 such as sulphur, camphor, mentho | vegetable oils of all kinds, kelT
 phosphate, lime, silica and wood The salt supply is something of

TANKS PRAISED
 BY LORD D-MAY0RS
British and Irish Notables Laud Conduct of Ameri-
 can Troops Abroad

A message praising highly the con- duct of American troops on the Bri- tish Isles during the World War, signed by all the lord mayors, lord provosts, and mayors of cities and towns of Great Britain and Ireland has recently been received by the State Department.
 The message is as follows:
 ITO the people of the United States of America: Be it known by these presents that we, the undersigned lord mayors, lord provosts, and may ors of the various cities and towns of Great Britain and Ireland, while re- joicing that, with the cooperation of the American Army and Navy and that of the Allies, the war has been brought to 8 victorious conclusion, do hereby declare, on behalf of the people of these islands, our deep re- gret at the consequent departure from among us of the Amerian naval and military forces who have fought side by side with our soldiers and sailors with so much gallantry and success.
 We are sorry that, we in this country, have not been able to welcome as many of the American land forces as we should have liked, owing to the exigencfes of war. Those of your men, however, who have resided with US have made countless friends ways retain the happiest memories Of their visit. The standard of con- duct they have set has indeed been q high one, and we can only say that we hope they will take away with them some of those feelings of af- lection (which they have inspired dur ing tEeir soJurn with us."
