COOMTZ HAS EXPLANATION.

Washington, Oct. 9--The battleship
Mississippi is not bound for Valparaiso,
Chile, from Port Angeles. Wn., and prob
ably the vessels hurried departure was
due to orders from Admiral Rodman,
commanding the Pacific fleet to which
she is attached, Admiral Coontz, chief
of naval operations, said.
Two naval vessels, probably the gun
boat Dolphis, flagship of the newly
created squadron for special service IN
Latin American waters, and the cruiser
Des Moines will be sent to Chile to par
ticipate in the Magellan celebration there
next month, Admiral Coontz said. 1t
had been suggested at one time that the
Mississippi represent the navy at the
celebration he added, but this plan had
been abandoned.

Example of Development
I'm its century and half of national
existence, our America has given the
world an example Of national develop
ment such as history never before re-
corded.
In some resources. we were so lib
orally endowed at the beginning that
there is small danger, if we are guild
ed by even reasonable intelligence, that
they will be exhausted But in some
other directions, our resources cannot
be reAed on TO serve us indefinitely.
Oklahoma is Oil Center
America produces the greater part of
the world petroleum. and your Okla
homa is the gravity center of that pro-
duction.
Our oil resources in Ohio and Penn
sylvanla have become, to n large extent,
exhausted. Yours in Oklahoma cannot
bear always, or for long, the demands
that are imposed upon them. New fields
must be opened, the whole world must
be drawn upon for supplies.
Need Keeps Pace With Growth
Il have been speaking particularly of
petroleum. to illustrate a lesson that /
want to impress. AS we exhaust our
national resources and increase our pop

impossible for the hereafter. But, while
our own administration has been seek

what have been the real activities, the
concerns of other nations?
Il question whether other nations have
taken very SERIOUSLY tue moore ana self

government has been proclaiming.
Oil Is Key to Trade.
"In this connection let me come hack
for moment to the somewhat practical
question of petroleum. The plain fact
is that while our government has been at
