May Have To
Ration Gas"
Fear Shortage

WASHINGTON, July ga gas
oline rationing system to be applied
Throughout the entire United States
now is being considered by big refin-
ers.
The rationing system is designed by
the refners as last resort to curtail
consumption and to keep the price
from being forced to more than 40
cents a gallon, government officials
here have been informed by the repre-
sentatives of the refners.
Refners say curtailing consumption
is the only way to keep down prices.
Before adopting the rationing system
they plan to issue a nationwide ap-
peal to the country 10 cut down JOY
riding.
AS devised by the refners, the ra-
tioning plan would be voluntary one
by dealers in which the government
would have no hand. 1t would mean
that gasoline would be doled out to
callers under a fixed quota for each
state or locality.
California and some other western
states now are on gasoline rations.
In other localities gas is selling
from 271a to SO cents a gallon.
Consumption now is reported by
refncrs as 13 million gallons a day.
Production is II million gallons a day.
Reserve stocks therefore are being
drawn on at the rate of about GO mil
lion gallons a month, according to pro-
ducers' figures.

MARTHA GRAHAM
FALLS IN WELL
AND IS SAVED

Martha Graham, the 10 year old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. John Gra-
ham, on North Jefferson street, fell in
an Is foot we'll in the Graham yard,
shortly after noon Wednesday, and
was rescued by Gus Sunnen and
Henry Bartels.
There was only three feet of water
in the we'll which broke her fall and
was not sufficient to cover her head
when she stood up. The child was
uninjured though badly frightened.
When she fell into the we'll Mr.
Sunnen and Mr.. Bartels who were
passing, came to her rescue. They
let a long pole down into the depths
of the hole and Mr.. Sunnen climbed
down to aid Martha to climb out.
The fire department responded 70
the alarm with a long ladder but
arrived after she had escaped.

About 65 5of the friends and rel
atives of Mrs. S. D. Wilson, of south
east of town, came to her home on
Sunday, July 25, and surprised her,
the occasion being her sixty-fourth
birthday. Everyone brought well
filled baskets and at the noon hour a
bountiful feast of everything good to
eat was spread on the lawn and ev-
eryone there did the table justice.
One special feature was the beau
tiful tower cake of white and pink
with the decorative inscription
Mother, Home and Heaven" which
was very appropriate. Everybody
enjoyed the day and all left wishing
Mrs. Wilson many happy returns of
the day.
Among the guests were: Henry
Conrad and family of Moberly, Mrs.
Austin Carter and family, Mr.. and
Mrs. Milton Bo2arth, Mr.. and Mrs.

Coal To
Operate Brick
Plant A Days

Unless the strike of coal miners is
ended by the first of next week, it is
probable that several concerns here
will be forced to cease operation be-
cause of the scarcity of coal. Since
he Wabash railroad issued orders
forbidding delivery of coal 10 any
but public utility concerns, there has
cen almost no coal in transit, |. NJ.
Richards, freight and passenger
gent, said Wednesday, and the coal
which was in transit when the order
was issued has all been confscated
by the railroad.
The A. P. Green Fire Brick Com
pany's supply of coal totals eighteen
cars, or slightly more than enought to
keep the plant in operation for four
days. The company has number
of cars of coal on the way here, but
it is all subject to confiscation by the
railroads.
The Crown Laundry Company is
supplied with enough coal to last the
remainder of the week. Unless there
is a change in conditions by the open
ing of next week, however, the plant
probably will be forced to close down.

Gottlieb Winzer

Gottheb Winzer arrested during the
war as pro-German and his daugh-
ter, Minnie Winner again came intp
the public notice last Friday after
noon, when they were the principal
characters in shooting scrape" witA
Sheriff j. G. Ford.
Some cows belonging to Elmer Hal-
wig of Rush Hill strayed into the
Winner farm northeast of Mexico
Gottlieb Winner locked them in his
barn, and when their owner called for
them, refused TO talk to him. Helwig
called Sheriff Ford, who, in company
with Conrad Schultz, went to thA
Winner farm.
Gottlieb Winner, armed with re-
volver, met the men. As they advan-
ccd toward the house, Minnie Winner,
the daughter, armed with a % cal
ibre rifle, came to her fathers aid.
Sheriff Ford, according to the story
which neighboring farmers tell, told
&rhutt2 to take the gun from the girl
while he dealt with her father. AS
Schultz started toward the girl, she
fred. Schultz was not injured.
"A lengthy argument followed, and
Sheriff Ford was the winner. The
cows were returned to their rightfuI
owner. -
This incident was one Of many in
stances when Winner and his daugh-
ter have been involved in trouble with
their neighbors. They never have any
dealings with their neighbors except
necessary business dealings. They al
low no one on their place and are
universally unpopular in the commun-
ity where they live.

Ford to obtain his version of the

Wabash May Put
Safety Gates On
Jefferson Crossing

The Wabash Railroad Company has
urder consideration the installation
of safety traffic gates at the jefferson
street railroad crossing here. F. W.
Smith of Moberly, an assistant civil
engineer for the Wabash, is in Mex
leo now, making an investigation of
the traffic on the jefferson street
crossing to determine whether or not
the gates are needed.
If his report shows that the amount
OF traffic warrants additional safety
measures, 1t is probable that the
Wabash will cooperate with the Chi
cago & Alton In the erection Of auto
matte safety gates on both sides Of
the tracks
For several years traffic gates at
the Jefferson street crossing have been
advocated. A traffic-count taken sew
eral years ago by the Boy Scouts of
Mexico showed that the number Of
pedestrians and vehicles crossing the
tracks on Jefferson street every hour
was very large.

Federal. ok.
IS PLACED ON
The EAST ROAD

The road project to improve the
North State Highway east Of Mex
leo and remove the death trap pas
sageway under the Alton tracks at
East Lake, is practically ready for
contractors to bid on. The Federal
government has placed it's approval
on the proposition which had already
been approved by both the County
and the State governments.
The plans for the thirty-two foot
passageway under the Alton tracks
at, East Lake will be submitted to the
railroad company and when this has
been given their o. K, the matter Is
ready for the contractors to bid on.
The passageway will not be where
1t is today. It will be directly west
of the bridge over the East Lake
spilway. This will eliminate The
curve south from the bridge to the
present narrow passageway.
1t is expected that the railroad
company will act on the plans sub
mitted to them shortly so that the
project, which extends four miles
east of this city. can be started
shortly.

COOLEST
DAY OF SUMNER
80 DEGREE FALL

That lightning change artist, Mis-
souri Weather, played to the grand
stand in the seasons greatest success
Sunday. Within thirty-six hours, the
temperature fell from 1O2 degrees to
.72 degrees. Friday was the hottest
day Of the summer, and Sunday was
by far the coolest, according to Mrs.
J. F. Llewellyn official weather OBJ
server.
The maximum temperature Sunday
was 72 degrees, while the mercury In
the thermometer scared up to 102 de-
grees Friday afternoon. The min
imum tempeature Sunday was Sc
degrees or about twenty-five degrees
cooler than the minimum temperature
any other day this month.
In addition to relief from the heat,
there came showers Sunday evening
ana Monday morning which will be
worth thousands of dollars to farmers
in this county. The corn was badly
in need Of rain and the chinch bugs
were proving a menace to the corn.
Mondays rain was steady enough to
soak the ground well, and hard
enough to play havoc with the chinch
bugs.
Mrs, Llewellyn said that the gov
ernment guage here registered .35
inch Of rain. Reports from Benton
City, Rush Hill and other commun-
tiles in the east and north part of the
county indicate that the rain was
general.

Will Deliver No
Coal Except To
Public Utilities

Orders forbidding the delivery Of
coal for any commercial purposes ex.
cept public utilities were received
Saturday by /. M. Richards, freight
and passenger agent for the Wabash
Railroad here. Until further orders
are received, the Wabash will deliver
no coal here except to the Mexico
Power Company and the Arctic Ice
and Storage Company.
The order was issued, Mr.. Richard
said, in order to insure coal for the
railroad. Until conditions are more
certain, it will be necessary for the
railroad to hold the coal for its own
use.
This order may be in effect for
only day or two" Mr.. Richards said.
1T has been made in order to keep
the railroads and other public util-
tiles in operation"
