TELLS OF. WORLD SOURCES.

Warrington, D. C.-Most of the ro-
nance and drama of the oil prospec-
tors existence is imaginary, to be en-
countereds in fiction, says Robert An
derson, just back from year of oil
explorations in India, Egypt, Algeria.
He is now on his way to Trinidad,
where he will direct new searches for
oil for the Whitehall Petroleum Cor
poration of London.
"The western hemisphere, rather
than Europe, Asia or Africa, seems
certain to lead in the production of
oil for an indefinite time" Anderson
says. "South America now appears as
the likely source of the next great
volume of supply! There are great
fields there in which production has
scarcely begun"

Saloonkeeper Who Sold
Liquor to Slayer.
GAINS A NEW DELAY

Naming Paul Rodeman of Kenosha
as the man who sold liquor to Ignatz
Potz, the slayer convicted of killing
Police Officer William Petersen Of
Winthrop Harbor, was the most sensa-
tional development of the case in the
hearing of the Potz appeal in Wauke-
gan before Judge. Edwards on Saturday.
As a consequence Of the introduction
of this new evidence the case was again
continued to allow the defense to con-
tinue its investigations. 1t will go to
a final hearing on Tuesday, May 23rd,
at o'clock. At the hearing on Satur-
day it was also announced that Robert
Verne Baker, we'll known Kenosha at
torney, had been secured as additional
counsel for Potz.
Attack Kenoshan's Testimony.
Counsel for the defense announced
in open court Saturday morning that
the most important point in the fight
for new trial would be an attack on
the testimony of Paul Rodeman, Keno
sha saloonkeper, who testified that
Potz was not drunk when he left the
Kenosha saloon. 1t is said that Dis
trict Attorney Frank symmonds of Ke-
nosha will be in circuit court in Wau-
kegan On May 23rd to testify against
Rodeman who is under surveillance in
Kenosha for the alleged sale of intoxi-
eating liquor.
Kenosha Affidavits Filed.
Attorney Williams, for the defense,
filed two afldavits signed by Kenosha
men, Sam Winzek and Anton Nemetz,
who swear that on February 81, 1922,
in the Rodeman saloon at 323 Milwau-
kee avenue, Kenosha, Rodeman in
speaking to the two men, stated that
on January IS, 1922, Potz, John Bartole,
Michael &Radich and Joseph Bartole
were in the Rodeman saloon for about
two hours, playing pool and drinking;
that they drank gallon and half of
red wine, commonly called "Dago red,"
and that he (Rodeman) told them to
leave and helped them get into their
car in order that they might not be
arrested in~ his saloon for drunkenness.
The affdavits of the Kenosha men ex-
pressly set forth that Rodeman carried
the guns to the auto and helped Potz
into the front seat.

Improving Great
BuenOs Aires Port
fRv Tinted Press)

Buenos Aires-The port of Buenos
Aires, noted throughout the two hem
ispheres as the worlds greatest road
stead, is soon to have new railway
facilities which will enhance to a
great extent the efficiency of its trans
ferring system. This will be brought
about by tunnel, nearly three miles
in length, which will connect the
Plaza Once, station of the Western
Railway, with the docks.
Heretofore the bulk of the traffic
whic his consigned to points on this
railway had to be moved in motor
lorries from the docks to the freight
station of the railroad and there,
reloaded into the cars for transpor-
tation. This added a great deal of
useless expense
Before the war it was decided to
construct a good traffic line under
the existing subway. This work was
started, but was abandoned during
the war on account of the failure of
the contractors to deliver the neces-
sary materials. Immediately after
the Armistice, construction work, was
resumed and is now at the point of
completion.

Washington, ID. G., April 5.-Pres-

| his Alaska trip next summer so that
he can attend the 9th annual con-
yention of the National Editorial As
ISOLATION to be held at Missoula,
Montana, early in July. The PHesi-
dent is a paid-up member of the Ma
tional Editorial Association and
proud of his affiliation with this or
ganization of newspaper owners.
Such an address would be of national
| interest.
Preparations are made for two
special de luxe trains to transport
| the editors during their entire tour
of twenty-one days, starting and
ending at Chicago.
| Besides visiting Yellowstone and
Glacier National Parks, the news
paper party will travel over the vast
stretch of Montana, stopping in TWEEN
ty or more towns and passing
through the mining and agricultural
districts of the state. Part of the
journey will be by water, up Flat
head Lake, which is one of the many
scenic spots that lie outside Yellow
stone and Glacier National Parks.
| Missoula is making extensive ar
rangements to entertain the visitors
during the three days they will be
there for the convention. All the
other towns on the itinerary are
vying with one another in plans to
show their hospitality.
Special entertainment will be pro-
vided in Yellowstone Park where the
semi-centennial celebration of this
national playground will be in full
swing. And, later on the trip, when
the editors arrive in Glacier Park
they will be greeted in a picturesque
manner by the original inhabitants
