OIL PRODUCTION

Oil is like any other commod-
lily, its price is controlled by
supply and demand. In the
midwest and Texas fields the
supply at present, is greater
than demand, hence lower pri-
ces. In California the demand
IS greater than supply, hence
no lowering of price on the
Pacific Coast.
If politicians and law max
ers would confine themselves
to protecting investors and
citizens in their property
rights in this and other ma
tions, and help figure out
ways and means to conserve
and use every drop of oil we
produce, the periodical oil
shortages would be relieved
and the oil industry could pro-
ceed in a normal manner.
The price of oil cannot be
controlled any more than the
price of sugar or any other
commodity.
The sooner we learn this the
better off we will be.

Should a Minister CuSs Dam? Portland Pastor Says "Yes"

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 19.-"If | minister thinks man is damn fool he has just as much right to say so as anyone else"
 This, as expressed by Rev w. T. McElyeen. is the rock on which he split with the First Congregational Church.
 Profanity and roughness" was the charge brought against Dr. McEl- veen, which resulted in request from church officials that he tender his resignation.
 Dr. McElveen admits that he was guilty-from the standpoint of the ultraconservative church members - on both counts. But from the stand point of man trying to convey practical Christianity in way that would carry effect, he considers him self to be guilty of nothing except a fervent desire to make good on his job.
 "The issue is simply one of meth od." said Dr. McElveen. eSome peo- pie like the milk-and-water wN of putting over Christianity. but l don't.
