Chicago Wheat Receipts Only
About One.third of Last Year

Chicago, Nov: 20-Whether due to
farmers holding back their wheat, to
car shortage or to exports by way of
the Gulf. receipts of wheat in Chicago
this year are not more than third of
the amount received at this time last
year. l. G. West. statistician at the
Chicago Board of Trade, reports. Corn
receipts here are running higher than
last year, he said.
Owing to the light amount of wheat

The Petroleum Situation

Notwithstanding there is some con-
fict OF reports concerning the exact
condition of the petroleum prospects,
also Notwithstanding one of Eng
lands most successful ship builders
urges construction of coal rather
Than oil burning vessels there is
plenty of evidence Of an increasing
demand. .s-
The president of the Standard Oil
Company addressing the annual
meeting of the American Petroleum
Institute. Wednesday. declared that
the problem is one of increased pro-
duction and the World could economi-
cally make use of a larger supply.
And whereas this country has thrown
its oil lands open TO aliens as well
as its own citizens, and the world
has depended in large degree on our
oil supply. many foreign govern
ments are deliberately placing obsta-
cieS In the way OF those who would
like to assist in the development of
new sources of supply"
He said the American industry il
not alarmed but is disturbed over
this policy of reserving foreign
sources to the exclusive advantage Of
foreigners, and added:
With its position in world trade
and the economic and financial weap-
ons ready to hand. the United States
could undoubtedly compel a new al
lotment Of foreign oil territory SO al
to give it share of what other ma .
tons are now proposing to keep for
themselves. But we do not propose
this. Might never makes right. ana
the smaller countries without similar
means OF forcing their way into such
a division deserve better treatment
at our hands"
Moreover, We do not believe anv
such measures will be necessary.
The world is too anxious for petrole-
nm. This it can obtain only If there
be maintained everywhere a free and
fair field to all. with special govern
mental favor to none"

Knowing Our Neighbors.

All over Europe men, women and
children are said to be studying the
American language as never before.
1t is often demonstrated that Euro
peans and some Asiatics know as
much or more about Us than we know
about ourselves. How about our
knowledge of them and their institu-
tons:
We are now ranked as amateurs in
diplomacy because We do not know
very much about the long and intri-
cate history OF Europe and the cur
rents and cross currents that color its
whole fabric. Our history is COM
paratively brief and simple. but is
that not all the more reason why
Americans should acquaint them
selves with the impulses that motivate
other nations with whom this country
must deal?

GIutted with Graft

(San Francisco Chronicle.l
The exposures of graft in conpec-
ton with all the war industries and
in the enforcement of the drug act
and prohibition is only what was to
be expected. 1t is not probable that
any large amount of what actually
occurred will ever be discovered.
Most of the grafters will get away
with their loot.
All wars involve enormous cXpen-
ditures and afford no time to argue
prices. That is the grafter's >oppor-
tunity. and ne takes it. And when
the moral atmosphere is favorable
grating tends to become epidemic.
The war just ended-if it is ended
was the most horrible of all wars, and
the resulting speculation developed
into a perfect orgy. And we unfor-
tunately had in power a Federal Ad-
ministration most remarkably incom-
petent from a business standpoint
operating in political atmosphere
in which the habit OF wasteful ex-
penditure had been thoroughly estab-
lished in time of peace.
What we are just beginning to dis
cover is only what all thoughtful OBJ
servers knew existed. The trouble in
proving guilt lies in the fact that
grafters are also liars whom juries
are not inclined to believe. Check
ing the books may show where money
disappeared. Who got it is a very
different matter. We shall not have
to erect any new jails. =

A Brilliant Idea.

Quite the neatest scheme for inter-

development that has yet appeared

Peoples party. Briefly it contemplates
the use of American capital and Ger
man brains in combination for the ex-

1t has long been quite evident that
Germany would by natural inclination

she proved strong enough to throw
