Cleveland Team Wins
Baseball Championship
Over BROOKLYN Nine

The Cleveland team, pennant win
ners in the American league, became
the 1920 baseball champions of the
world Tuesday by taking the decid-
ing game of the annual post-season
series from the Brooklyn club, rep
resenting the National league.
The score of the decisive strug
gle was 8 to 0 in favor of Cleve-
land. Coveleskie, who had already be-
come a hero by pitching two win
ming games for Iris Speakers Tn
dams" registered his third victory:
Grimes, former Southern league
hurler, pitched a creditable game for
Brooklyn but his team mates were
unable to produce any runs.
Tuesdays victory gave Cleveland
five victories out of the seven games
played. They won on Monday by 1
to 0. The last four games were
played in the champions home town.
Tremendous throngs watched the Sc
ries. Each member of the Cleveland
club will receive close to $4,000
from the gate receipts, while the
losing Brooklynites will each draw
about $4,000.

BOGUS MAJOR IS
FACING JURY ON
FR.AUDCHARGES

Sensational testimony describing
how Ray Vincent, a discharged Fort
Mcpherson private, masqueraded as
a wounded major of infantry with a
brilliant overseas record and won his
way into the home of a well-kpown
Albanian while he was serving in
France with the army Y. M. c. A,
frequently calling on his young wife
and obtaining from her large sums
of money, Liberty bonds and other
property, were told to jury in fed
eral court Wednesday.
The case went to the jury at 1
o'clock. Although fourteen wit
nesses had been subpoenaed by the
government, the prosecution rested
after placing four witness on the
stand. Vincent was not permitted
by his council to testify, Attorney
John Y. Smith stating that in his
opinion, testimony by the defendant
would have no bearing on the jury's
verdict for the reason that the gov
eminent had utterly failed to show
any intent on his part to defraud
Mrs Dougherty.
Two indictments against the de-
PENDANT were produced. To the first,
which charges the unlawful wearing
Of the United States army uniform,
plea of guilty was entered by At
torney John Y. Smith for Vincent.
To the second Indictment, which
charges Vincent with using the uni
form to defraud-e Mrs. D. o. Dougher-
ty, Of 10 Prado, out of sums of money
and property, the defense pleaded
mot guilty"
Fourteen witnesses for the govern
ment, and one for the defendant were
sworn and then ordered sequestered
on motion of the defense.
Assistant District attorney Paul
Carpenter introduced the army serv-
ice record of Vincent in evidence,
which showed his service was limit
ed to six months at Fort Mcpherson
as a private soldier, and that he
was discharged July 16, 1918, several
weeks before his unit received en-
barka ton orders.

II wanted her and the two chill

money, Liberty Bonds, automobile

Crude Oil Shortage.


California was called upon in 1919
to supply approximately 475.oo0,00o
gallons of naphtha products. This
quantity could not be obtained from
the production OF crude oil in Cali
fornia and the shortage OF over 20.-
100000 gallons was imported from
the East. With the demand for gaso-
line and heavier fuels in direct pro-
portion to the number of internal
combustion engines, embracing auto
mobiles, trucks, tractors, marine mot
ors and pumping plants and the pro-
duction of this class of equipment
constantly increasing, the 1920 de-
mand for naphtha products 1t is esti-
mated. will exceed the 1919 demand
by at least % per cent, indicating a
total requirement of SOC. 900, 900 gall
Ions. From the present supply of
crude oil, the total possible produc-
tion of naphtha products is but 450,-
100000 gallons, indicating short
age in the products named Of $780,
The evening herald. (Klamath Falls, Or.) 1906-1942, 1920-02-01
GAS WILL BE HIGHER.

While heretofore gasoline has beer
purchased in the Continent Field
such purchases must necessarily be
made on a competitive basis with
Eastern buyers. The wholesale prices
of gasoline in the mid-Cont ntinent
Field today. at points of manufacture
are 1Sc to 19c per gallon, Add to this
price &c per gallon, the cost Of bring
ing the product to the Coast in tank
cars, and this gasoline would sell at
San Francisco at between Csc and 30c
per gallon, as against the present
price of 211s cents.
There are two simple factors. pro-
duction and consumption. Today the
crude oil production of California is
$4,000 barrels daily less than the re-
auirements, and the deficiency for
1920 at the present rate of produc-
tion will exceed 100000 barrels.
Since 1916 stocks have decreased
100000 barrels which means that
the public consumed that quantity
over the amount produced Stocks of
crude oil on hand today of 80. 900, 900
barrels are lower than at any time
since 1910 and of this quantity it Is
estimated, only 100000 barrels
are available for the market. At least
100000 barrels are required as a
working capital, or, so to speak, "as
merchandise on the shelf, and the
remaining 100000 barrels are in
pipe lines and tank bottoms and en-
tirely unavailable.
This company has been successful
in increasing its production of crude
oil. In 1918 the increase was four and
one-half million barrels over 1917,
and in 1919 three million barrels
over 1918, but even these consider
able increases on the part of one
company do not save the whole situa-
ton. In view of the shortage existing,
the company has increased the prices
it offers for refinable crude oil. Other
purchasers of refinable crude oil have
been paying large premiums over the
prices offered by the Standard Oil
Company.
The remedies are increased produc-
tion and importations, and to lesser
extent but quite as important, con-
servation and the elimination of
waste by careful and scientific hand
ling of petroleum and its products by
the oil industry on the one hand, and
it's scientific and careful use by the
public ON the other hand.
