in Trial of Lieut.. MARVEL.

Secretary DENLY has approved the
findings and sentence of the naval
court-martial in the case of Lieut..
George MARVEL of the Navy, charged
with disobedience of orders, the
specification being that he protested
against an order directing him to as
sumo temporary command of the sub
marine O-4 and take her from New
London. Conn, to Hampton roads.
His ground of protest was that the
vessel was unfit for sea. that he was
unfamiliar with her officers and crew
and that he was responsible for an
other vessel, submarine O-9, of which
he was in command at the time.
The court found him guilty of the
charge and sentenced him to lose
twenty-five numbers. Four members
of the court recommended cIemency
because of the officers youth and
good record. The bureau of naviga-
tion approved the sentence as rem
dered on the ground that the accused

in questioning the propriety Of the
duty to which he had been assigned.

Why This!

The Standard OIL Company's
gasoline retalls in some portions
Of Indiana, Missouri and other
states as low as 10 cents per gal
Ion. Kentucky is leading oil
producing State. Much of it is
refined in the State where it is
produced, but gasoline is not sold
so low here, and why not? Ken
lucky automobllists pay as much
as 5 cents per gallon more for
gasoline than other States west
of us, and this without any cause
other than we tamely submit to
the outrage. Gasoline can be
sold as cheaply in Kentucky as
any other state in the union.
The fact that it is not should be
sufficient reason why the oil glut-
tons should be made do so. We
used to have laws to prevent dis.
examination of prices in different
states, but where are they now?
