 New workmen are being brought in from among the troops of General Wrangel in Constantinople and also from the famine zones, but with it all there seems no way to keep the men satisfied, or properly fed.
 "Black Town," as is called the oil refining and delivery district, presents a sad sight as compared to the old days. The buildings of the NobeE re- finery, the most important of the companies represented, are going to ruin. Makeshifts are the rule every where. ', ..'> .'' v S
 When the Moscow Soviet took over the Azerbaijan republic a year and a half ago by buying it's officials and sending in the 11th Red army, it ex- pected to get oil for nothing.

MERGER MAY INCLUDE
 LAKE SUPERIOR MINES

In addition to recent reports con- corning possible new lineup of new copper companies, including Anacon- da, Kennecott and Inspiration, gossip is now heard that some of the big copper mining companies operating in the Lake Superior district will be consolidated next year, with Calumet and Hecla as the nucleus. The last named already controls through stock ownership the following mining com panies in the lake region: Ahmeek, Allouez, Centennial, Cliff, Isle Royal, La Sale, Osceola, Superior and White Pine. .g ,.. t
 Other mining companies operating in the same region are Quincy, Cop per Range, Mohawk and Wolverine.

MEASURE TO HELP
 MINERS NOW LAW

| WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-When President Harding Wednesday after noon at the Capitol signed Senator Shortridge's bill for the relief of the miners who produced war metals for the government, several million dol lars were instantly made available for the men who lost in the aggregate large sums in order to give the gov ernment sufficient supply of chrome tungsten and other needed metals not commercially in demand in peace times. .E. aa sIl s
 President Harding congratulated Senator Shortridge on the successful enactment of his bill into law, and the California Senator in turn said that the miners of the West wou d al- ways appreciate the efforts of the President and the officers of his ad- ministration to grant them well-de- served relief. 5.a
 The Sarcastic Farmer
 Henry Ford said at a dinner in Dearborn:
 'The American farmer is the most receptive man in the world if you ap- preach him with practical ideas---trac- tors, say. If you approach him with ideas of no value, he's apt to be sar- castle. I
 'Friend,' said a college professor to farmer one summer day, what are you feeding to those hogs ?'
 'Corn,' said the farmer.
 "tAre you feeding the corn, friend, wet or dry?"
 "tDry.' <,
 Friend, friend, don't you know that if you wet corn the hogs will digest it in half the time? t43
 "The farmer laughed.
 2" Look here,' he said, how much do you think a hogs time is worth ?'''-- Detroit Free Press. 4t".

age of personnel is so acute that men
 must be taken off duty to fill such
 requests.
 The American Legion has begun a nation wide canvass to determine who was the last soldier killed in action. The French government will erect a monument to the last to fall. A Legion post at New Haven, Conn.,, has put forward the name of Thomas J. Walpole, Jr., killed on the morning of Armistice Day in an outpost engage ment. .4. Y
 Gamaliel, the, 50 pound turkey for President Harding's Thanksgiving Day dinner, was sent from Crystal Springs, Miss, in a profusely decorat- ed crate by the American Legion ot that city. The whole town of Crystal Springs turned out to bid, the bird goodby. GamaliePs chaperone to Washington was M. H. Daily, pro hibition director for the state of Mis- sissippi. "." E.

It is pointed out by copper men that operating costs of mines in the lake country are so high, compared with other sections of the country, that it is important that they be brought down to lower levels. Great econo- mics it is believed, could be accom- plished by greater contralization of management.

OIL FIELDS ;. CEASE TO PRODUCE


 in six months the oil fields, lying within few miles of this city and once counted among the richest petrol cum wells in the world, will have ceased to produce, according to ex- pert opinion, unless new machinery and better workmen are obtained.
 This condition is acutely realized by the local Azerbaijan government which is controlled by Moscow. If the oil is not forthcoming, this will mean the stopping of the oil-burning steamers of the Caspian Sea, several hundred in number, the 1000 or more tugboats and steamers of Volga still in repair and the oil-burning locomo- tives of the entire railway system of greater Russia. r .-.:,..

 Efforts are being made to obtain machinery, possibly from the United States, by M. Serabrovsky,, a trained engineer and now general director of the oil fields, and also to induce work men to work. .r... w .eg
 The pre-war production averaged annually about 1S,O00,000,000 pounds of crude petroleum and this year it will run about 5000, 100000 at best. There have been but few wells this year and the old ones function slow ly. The opening up of the pipe line to Batum for foreign export is out of tn equestion there is not enough oil and Russia consumes much of the present supply, herself. '. s
 The general cause given for this condition is described by competent oil engineers, long on the field as the "gangrene" of Soviet control. "Whatever the Communists touch seems to go to rot", declared one en- gineer., "1t seems like fatality and the worst of it is that no amount of new machinery here will remedy the situation. New machinery would be broken up by incompetent, underfed workmen just as the old machinery has been". 4. t. <. Is.ts.r 5.
 This is rather gloomy view taken by an anti Bolshevik The oil fields began to slow down four years ago. The present Moscow rule has severely suffered from the sins of it's predeces- sors here. >E
 It is feared there will be much diff ficulty in buying new machinery this winter, though the Azerbaijan govern ment has a commercial mission at Constantinople they may go to the United States to get capital or credit for the machinery. Y
 The labor situation is much more clear. Russia is denuded of her best thinkers, imperialists and Commu- nists, and likewise of her trained workers. In the oil fields where are needed 50,000 men, there are now pos sibly half that number, and few of them trained and employers say even these are disinclined to work. %
 Before the war there were 125 pri- vate companies here and each with a managing director, and now the work of all these directors falls on the shoulders of a few men. The work men get one and a half pounds of black bread per day and soup, with
