TO GIVE THEIR BLOOD

BALTIMORE, Aug. A second call
for volunteers 20 give their blood in
TRANSMISSION cases was issued ycster-
day by Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Nearly all of the fifteen men accepted
at the first call, several weeks ago,
have given their blood. Additional
volunteers now are desired. so calls
upon any individual need not be
frequent.
Although only fifteen men were &C.
cepted at the first call, many more
volunteered. Offers to give their
blood were received from persons In
Washington, Annapolis and all parts
of the state. Responses also were
received from distant points, one
coming from Detroit, Mich.
Those desiring to have their names
placed on the list OF donors are re-
duested to call at tho hospital dis
pensary, on Monument street at any
time during the day. They will then

Big LOAN TO GERMANY

Commons Votes for Advance of Five
Million Pounds After Premier
ExplainS Spa Coal Matter.

LONDON, Aug. 4.-The vote Tor an
advance of f5,OOO,OOO to Germany in
connection with the Spa coal agree
ments came up last night in the
House Of Commons. 1t was agreed
to without division.
Labor members welcomed in the
proposition what they characterized
a sensible change in the government
policy toward Germany, and practi
cal revision of the unworkable Ver-
sailles treaty" Premier Lloyd George
said the proposal for securing coal
was much better than sending large
costly army for 1t. He argued that
Germany must pay her debts either
in gold or goods. She had no gold,
he declared. but coal was the equiva-
lent of gold or even more valuable.
However" added the premier. Ger.
many Is unable to produce sufficient
coal, while her population is unfit and
i'll fed. Hence she must be helped.
There is no doubt about the condition
OF Germany. We have impartial rep
resentatives there who report the peo-
pie are not receiving within 60 or 20
per cent Of the food they consumed
before the war"

stor Phelan OF California TO lead the
night for participation OF the Unlleu
States in the foreign oil land devel-
opment movement.
The recent action of France and
England to form a combination Tor
acquisition of an adequate oil supply
for the two countries Is viewed as
move to control the supply OF the
world. according to Congressional
leaders.
PHELAN PLAN INDoRsED.
Senator Phelan's ofnce announced
today that action TO form a Federal
corporation for the purchase and de-
velopment of oil lands and the oper-
alton OF foreign fields would be urged
for Immediate action as soon as Con-
gress convenes. The plan outlined
by Senator Phelan has been indorsed
by the Departments OF Interior ana
Commerce.
Reports or the GeoloBlcal survey
indicate that the domestic oil supply
will be greatly restricted In twenty
years. Senator Phelan requested th'
Department of Commerce TO inform
him of the plans of the British gov
ernment. so he might make change
In his bill necessary to meet Britlsh
competition.
ENGLAND GETS STOCK.
"It appears the British government
is definitely going into the oil busi
ness" the Department of Commerce
informed him. During the war pc
riod England acquired two-thirds oi
the stock OF the Anglo-Persian OH
Company. This company has an eX-
elusive concession for oil -exploita-
tion throughout Persia, except the
Ave northern provinces, and has val
liable concessions in Mesopotamla
and other parts of the world.
1T would seem imperative that our
Government take the same course or
at least. find a way of preventing, 80
far as possible, the monopoly or fu-
ture sources of oil supply by foreign
countries" the Commerce Depart
ment warned.

MIR. BURSUM AND THE SENATORSHIP.

1t seems to be well understood in political cir
cles in New Mexico that Senator Fall is to resign
soon United States senator. 1t is an open secret
among the senator's friends that he has long
desired to retire from that position. Just now
opinion is divided to whether the senator will
enter the cabinet of President Harding for time
or intends to re-enter private business in New York
and Ell Paso at
The health of Senator Fall has not been firm
for some time and rumor has it that his political
career has been extremely detrimental to his
personal business affairs. Both considerations point
to return to private business, although a cabinet
position might lure him for time.
Even those who feel that the senator's political
influence has not been helpful to New Mexico
it should have been will wish for him full real
iaton of his personal ambitions either in the field
of national politics in the strengthening of his
provision for old age. His ability to get results in
either field is fully realized by those who know
him ... ,..-g-I ..-.--,--., ... ..lo.-
If of his retirement materialize into
fact it will leave to Governor Mechem the privilege
of naming successor. There seems to be diff
ference of opinion among political observers that
Mr.. H. o. Bursum will be accorded the honor. This
would be the logical and reasonable thing to hap
pen should Mr.. Bursum desire it. We will go farth-
and say that believe it to be the most ad-
vantageous thing that could be. done for New
Mexico in the present situation. .a.. ...
Personal obligation would certainly lead Gov
-ernor Mechem to appoint Mr.. Bursum unless there
were overwhelming reasons of state why he should
not do So far the Journal see there is no
such reason. The people have entrusted the state
government to the republican party. The appoint
ment must necessarily be republican one. Mr..
Bursum is by all odds, entitled to the honor at the
hands of his party.
There may be those who do not regard Mr..
Bursum as of senatorial size. With these the Jour
nal does not agree. We think him a man of ex-
traordinary acumen and Of remarkable power when
in action. The height of leadership to which he
rose in the recent republican state convention when
"whpping across the nomination of Judge Me-
chem, was superb. 1t the admiration of even
those who opposed to what he doing.
Lack OF ability personality is not Mr.. Bursum's
short-coming. He would rank well with the aver
age member of the senate
Mr. Bursum has been too long identified with
the purely machinery side of politics. Such sit
uation carries with il too much power of certain
kind with too little responsibility to the people.
His thought has been rather upon how to hold the
machinery intact than upon making personal
record for himself. This, we feel. has led him to
countenance sins Of both omission and commits
sion which he would not have endured had the
responsibility for the administration been directly
upon him. A~-'es'ss.7s-

almost certain to change. Shortcomings will then

ator once aroused the fine fighting spirit of Mr.
Bursum will, we believe, lead him to accomplish
many things for the state. He will that the
record made by the party in the legislature this
winter will directly affect his election two years
hence. This will lead him to redouble his efforts
to force good party record at this session Incl
dentally he can make the good personal record of
having led a reform program to success in the
legislature
In the senate Mr.. Bursum could greatly aid the
state He knows New Mexico and can pass in
diligently upon her needs. His skill in handling
men would get results for him in the senate.
Drawn away from the petty compromises of organ
izaton politics into the wider field, his vision would
doubtless clear and ideals of higher service would
develop. -.t s.-+ a .-.-....a. g. --.-...
Mr.. Bursum probably regards the Journal as
unalterably hostile to him. He is mistaken. We
have repeatedly expressed opinion of his posi-
bilties for usefulness. We would be glad indeed of
an opportunity to serve him in any plans he has
for state betterments. ......4..
As we apprai4e the situation, the responsibility
of a senatorship would favoraby affect Mr., Bur
sums perspective once embued with ideals of serv
ice Mr.. Bursum may easily become New Mexico's
most valuable and valued republican son. Without
these ideals his ability makes him a menace to be
combatted by those of different ideals
Our attitude toward him in the future will de-
pend entirely upon the record he makes.
Should Mr.. Bursum assume the senatorial toga
he could greatly minimize public hostility toward
him by surrendering the national committee chair
manship to other hands.

FORTUNATE FOR ALBUQUERQUE.

The success of Congregation Albert in inducing
Rabbi Bergman to remain in Albuquerque is fortu-
nate for the entire city His going would have not
only meant distinct loss to Albuquerque Judaism,
but would have. deprived the City Bureau of Char
tiles of the abest general secretary that has ever
had and the entire community of of its best
citizens.
Regarding Rabbi Bergman's work as charity
secretary the present writer believes he is in some
position to pass Judgment, having for several
months been in charge of the office of the Civic
Betterment League, the present bureaus predeces-
sor Even a single day spent in that little office
in the city hail. graphing with new problems pre-
scented for quick decision every few minutes-and,
UP to recently with but limited funds at ones com
mand-will convince any one that being charity
secretary in a town like Albuquerque, with a con-
slant flow of INDECENT and migratory tuberculars,
is difficult task.
g As far as Rabbi Bergmans service as citlzen
is concerned, it needs expatiation. In almost
every patriotic and civic movement this dynamic
man has been actively engaged.
Those of us who know the rabbi intimately I'M
derstand his for wishing to leave Albuquer-
que The major part of his life has been spent in
large Cities with their correspondngly great OPP
portunities for service. The personal reason for
his remaining in Albuquerque having ceased, it was
natural for him-to whom large activities the
ozone-to seek wider fields. That he induced
to reconsider, his resignation came as pleasant
surprise to his friends
