the opening Of this companys $2,-
900 900 addition to it's refining plant

( Both the Associated and the Stand
ard Oil Companies have summarized
the reasons for the present shortage
in gasolene. Both agree the short
age is not due to less gasolene being
manufactured, but to it's greatly in
creased use. Absence Of rains have
resulted in much greater use of au-
tomobiles. Increased use of motor
trucks instead of horses is another
reason. The dry weather has cur
tailed the use of hydroelectric power
and resulted in greater consumption
of gasolene for power purposes.

Woman Court Clerk
Criticizes State Law
Made BY Mere Man

Waterloo, Aug. Miss Ruth
Robinson, deputy municipal court
clerk, learned some law yesterday.
The law Miss Robinson learned was
not able to make very great dent
in her approval.
She says: That's just like man.
You'd know q woman didn't make
that law"
And q check artist was respon-
sible for the deputy clerk express
ing herself about q man mac de law,
]. Ferreter was the check artist.
The state accused him of falsely
drawing check" County Attorney
b. j. Wenner filed the information.
TO be more specific, Ferreter
falsely drew and uttered more than
one check. His operations Included
the following according to the in
formation:
!. Check for 1925. which had a
protest fee Of 40 cents.
2. Check for $25 besides q So
protest fee.
3. Check for $50.
I. Check for 1896.
Ferreter made good the checks
and the accrued costs. The big
ledger was opened and his case was
marked closed"
Deputy Clerk Robinson wanted to
know why the state didn't go ahead
and prosecute. Judge John Gwynne
explained that II defendant makes
good his checks and pays costs
within three days after information
is filed. he can not be prosecuted.
The courtsor state has no option in
the matter. His payment of the
checks and costs white washes the
crime SO cleverly that no crime ex-
lists.
Well then. the law just makes
q collection agency out of the court"
declared Miss Robinson.
ooh. wouldn't say that" said
Judge Gwynne.
"well. l would!" replied the deputy
