"A small thirty page booklet is published at Akron
entitled Light on Knight" It might be called Knight
on Knight It is put out by group Of exservlce men
who call themselves the Loyalty League Its text is
made up Of former newspaper utterances OF e. L.
Knight Republican candidate for congress in the Four
teenth district In the opinion of the Loyalty League,
these utterances printed in large part during the war;
constitute an unanswerable argument against MR.
Knights election.
The candidate opposed to Knight is Martin L. Davey
now completing his first term as representative in con-
gress from this Fourteenth district. Though MINOR
ity member and first te1mer Congressman Davey has
made more than an ordinarily good impression at Wash
ington He has been an assiduous worker, an accom-
modatng official and one in whom his colleagues have
had complete confidence. His votes have supported
progressive measures He voted for suffrage for pro-
hbition enforcement for vocational rehabilitation for
civil service retirement for budget reform and against
the effort to weaken the federal farm loan act.
By every rule of politics reason Mr. Davey is en-
titled to reelection Two years ago the fourteenth dis
trct rejected the candidacy Of the veteran Charles Dick
in order to choose Davey for his first term Everything
urged in Daveys favor then has been justified by the
character Of his service The issue between Davey and
Knight transcends partisanshp It is question be-

Prof AncOna says that while the
workers refuse TO pay more than
this, they have no objection TO pay
ing or lire for n quart of wine,
which before the war cost about
y cents a quart. He asks whether
it Is just that the Italian govern
ment should continue to supply over
ISL 900. 100000 annually for bread
when the people do not Erudge
$500, 100000 a year for the luxury Of
wine.
The professor advocates that the
Italians should eat less bread and
pay what IL costs and that they
should drink less wine and export
more OF it, so that the profit on wine
would help TO nay for importation of
bread.
The amount of land given over to
wheat production in Italy greatly de-
creased last year. The disastrous
result is that the imports are in
creasing daily

Italians Spend Enormous
Sum of Money for Wines

ROME. Nov. 16-Prof. Uga An
coma, formerly under-secretary Of
transportation in the Italian cabinet,
has just made public a statement
that while the Italian government
has spent more than $1,000, 900, 900
a year for bread for the people, the
Italian workers have spent 5000, 600,
600 a year on wine alone.
The governments expenditure for
bread has resulted from its under
taking TO pay the difference between
the cost OF producing wheat and the
price OF bread. In corr aquence Of
this the Italian workers have been
able TO buy bread at the rate of one
Ira for each kHogram OF go
pounds.

TN1e13 (when there were ,OO9, 900 auto
mobiles IN the United States) oil pro-
ducers drilled about rs 900 wells. The
average paid for crude was Csc per barrel.
In 1914 producers had little discour-
agement. The price for crude oil fell
off to SIC average, and they drilled only
$4,000 wells. These wells, however,
proved exceptionally prolific and crude
prices dropped to an average of 64c a
barrel (40c in the Mid-Continent feld).
As consequence of the over-production,
the bottom dropped out of the gasoline
market and low prices prevailed.
The low prices of crude made exploration
of new fields improbable, and in 1915
only $4,000 wells were drilled This halt
in production enabled demand to creep
up on supply, and caused crude to advance
until it reached $1.1O per barrel.
Encouraged by the better prices offered,
producers put down "a 900 wells in 1916.
The unprecedented demand aroused by
the war caused petroleum prices to soar,
and, notwithstanding the activities in the
producing field, prices have continued to
advance because demand exceeded supply.
In August, 1920, the number of new oil
wells brought in for that month alone was
1913 B the highest oil production mark
in the history of the United States. Yet
so great was demand that Mid-Continent
crude stood firm at So so, and Pennsyl-
vania crude at $6.10 per barrel, the pres.
ent prevailing prices.
The market price for crude is not apt to
60 of appreciably while demand continues
to increase as during 1920.
Since 1913 the number of motor vehicles
IN the United States has increased to ap-
proximately 7,459,60 and the forecast
for 1921 is 10 million motor vehicles in
the United States.
The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is
straining every fibre and sinew of its highly
specialized organization to increase the
yield Of gasoline from crude petroleum.
How well it is succeeding is indicated by
the fact that an eminent authority states
that the Burton process, originating in the
laboratories of the Standard Oil Company
(Indiana) has produced 40 million barrels
of gasoline from heavy distillates, and has
thus saved approximately $50 million
barrels of crude oil that would otherwise
have been necessary to produce an equiva-
lent amount of gasoline
