NUEVA YORK, julio 6.-De fucnte
digna de entero credito sc supo hoy
aquf que todas las Compaffas america
mas productoras de Petr6leo en- Mexi-
co tuvieron Y firnaron un acuerdo. por
ei que sc convino en- suspender los en-
barques de petroleo de Mexico y las
opcraciones de perforaci6n, asi como
limitar Ia production dc los pozos al
limite mas baio possible. Dos de las prin
...yaS1as inglesas Sc rehu-
saron q firmar el pacto, pero han con-
venido en- lulitar los embarques de
petroleo a cantidades tan insiGnifi-
cantes que haga casi negative Ia ex-
portaci0n.
Tn banquero de esea cfudad, muy
famiiariZado con la situaci6n, EXPIRE
SO la opinion dc que habfa un gran
negocio por bajo cuerda, que ell ITEM
po sc cncargarfa de revelar.
Los productores, en- mi opinion, d.
jo cl banquero estan jusciflcados cn 81
proceder, no obstante que esta acci6n
Observation-Disclosures, embarazara las
discusiones informales que Sc hayan
pendientes entire los E,stados Unidos v
Mexico con respecto al reconocimicnto.
Mexico, en- epocas pasadas hizo uso
de medidas energicas para tratar con
los productores y aparentemente aho-
ra, estos, han decidido una accion 81
milar.
''Ana lizando ell case Y sus resultados
mi opinion es Ia dc que los producto-
res estAn intentando un enorme bluff
que esa accion sc ha tornado de acuer
do con Obregon."
En- relaci6n con la primera presun-
ci6n, sc observa que los Estados Uni
dos no pueden continuar atendiendo
sus necesidades petroleras por mas de
seis me5es, sin Il pctr1Ico ulcA =.
Ducs despues de csc tempo Ia produc-
ci0n donestica tendrfa que suplemen-
tarse con Ia de otros paises para poder
dar abasto a las necesidades y Mexico
es el pats l6gico por su vecindad y pro-
| ducci6n para proporcionar el petroleo
nccesario.
La Gnica raz3n para prcSumir que la
accion de los petrolcros pudiera haber
sido arreglada de antemano con Obre-
| Gon, es Ia de que 81 no puede obrar sin
el apoyo de la opinion publica.

TOO MANY PANES

This may, or may not, be true, but it is curious

is Sufficiently occupied and that no o,hcrs shall
enter it. Many towns have leo many grocery
stores, too many dry goods stores OF too many
newspapers yet nobody prelends 10 say Thai the
number should be lorcbIy reduced, Or hai We
should have federal officer 10 guard The field and
prevent others from going into business.
In principle, banking differs l't,le fom cher

A STALK OF SUGAR CANE



Patches of sugar cane is the cultivated vegeta-
ton most often to be in the Everglades.
Banana plants, too. are everywhere to be OBJ
served; and in their seasons specimens of al
most every variety of vegetation grown in the
United States and the semi-tropics. Mango,
cado, euaya and other fruit trees of that charac-
ter grow and yield without Intention, and the
pigeon pea drops it's fruit for appreciatve poul-
try fields Of vegetables stretch out into distances
beyond vision, and cattle browse miles of
prairie But trees may lose their foliage and
gress may wither even here and vegetables are
grown but twice a year. 1t is the sugar cane
that holds its own against all conditions and
maintains is erectness and greenness the year
round, always bidding for attention.
There is no plant like it in all Florida. Rice
and potatoes, Florida crops par excellence are
staples for diet and sale; oranges are delicious
and refreshing, and the blossoms OF the tree are
costumes of brides. But crop equals sugar
cane in the variety of it's values.
The farmer goes out in the evening to do the
chores He cuts q few stalks of cane for the
hogs he losses few stalks to the COW and the
horse. and he retains stalk for the household:
in which it is a CONNECTION. In proper season he
sr.nds it and bois the juice and preserves the
fluid sweetness in cans of syrup for use on the
family table and exchange at the general store
for other supplies or ships it and banks the
money that comes in return. 1t is pleasant feed
for man and beast, decoration for a lawn
pleasant sight in any landscape view.
1t is no wonder that the grower, gloryng
in the infinite variety OF his product should carry
his experimentation to the point of ascertaining
the exact action resulting from little distillation
of the 'skimmins" and should not be disappointed
when he finds it to yield brew that mitigates
the rigor of the Volstead act?

u. S. S.. MARYLAND TO
BECOME FLAGSHIP OF
THE. PACIFIC FLEET

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 6.-The
worlds most powerful sea fighting
craft, the super-dreadnaught Mary
land, will soon become flagship of the
Pacific fleet, according to information
received by base officers here. In ev-
cry respect the Maryland is the latest
achievement of American naval ar
chitecture, and according to arma-
able to put any other fighting unit
out of commission.
Sixteen-inch. guns, eight of them,
the largest ever mounted on battle
ship. form the major battery of this
great engine of, war. These mammoth
guns are located, in. four turrets of
two guns each, and fire shell weigh
ing 2,100s pounds for distance of
more, than, twenty miles. These guns
are fffty-seven. feet in length, and
for each full charge approximately 4S0
pounds of powder are required.
The, secondary battery consists of
fourteen fve-inch. guns, carried for
use against torpedo boats, submarines
and small craft. In addition the Mary
land has four three-inch anti-aircraft
guns. a three-inch, landing gum. six
thirty-caliber machine guns and two
underwater torpedo tubes for firing
the largest and longest range tor
pedoes.
The Maryland was launched March
TO- 1920, and recently completed speed
trials off the Virginia Oapes. The
technical description follows: Length,
624 feet; beam, 81 1.2 feet; draft,
80 H. feet; weight, $4,000 tons; speed,
Fl knots; propellors, 4; shaft horse
