USE MORE THAN WE PRODUCE
Shortage of Petroleum Is Made Up by Large fmportations From Mexico --Bfg Source of Supply Seen
 in Shale.

Washington.TIn the last six years the gasoline used in the United States per automobile has decreased from GOO gallons per year to approximately 400 gallons per year, owing not to q de- crease of mileage per car, but to an in creased efficiency of carburetors and engines. Were it not for this in- creased efficiency we should already have reached our limit of gasoline con sumption and with it probably a price of at least 40 cents gallon.
 Since 1921 the United States has been consuming more petroleum than 1t produces. The excess has been largely provided by Mexico and last year showed an importation of more than 120,000,000 barrels, that is, ap- proximately 26 per cent of the Amer ican production. Moreover, about a year ago the geological survey called attention to the fact that we should not expect to find any more large fields of petroleum in the United States-in other words, that practi- cany all of the possibilities in the way O1 ldISG HcluS III lIlS country have been well protected and that now we can calculate fairly close ly what the production will be in the future.
 Continually Increasing.
 On the other hand, the use of motor vehicles in this country is continually increasing. At present there are about 1O,OOO0O0 passenger cars, trucks and tractors in use, and it is certain that the saturatiOn point is more than 15,- 100000, and perhaps will exceed 20,- 100000 machines. With this expected larger demand for gasoline on one hand, and on the other, even less pc troleum available in few years than we have at present, there arises a question as to how the motor fuel def icit is to be met. Of course, importa- tions of oil can be made from Russia, Persia, Mesopotamia, and South Amer ica. The consumer will purchase his gasoline at from GO to 75 cents gal lon. We must have a domestic supply of motor fuel and at a price more req sonable than 60 cents a gallon. Thir- ty-five or forty cents a gallon will prob ably be considered a fair price by the consumer.

NO MORE TAX EXEMPT
 LIBERTIES

:. Next year the tax exemption of the Liberty bonds will expire under the Liberty Loan Act. It will be noted that the sale of Liberties had to be made inviting to the large buyers and as result the purchasers of $5,000 lots were exempted from income taxes and purchasers of $50,000 lots were exempt for five years. Next year closes the exemption period and the owners of Liberty bonds will have to pay Uncle Sam their pro rata of gov ernmental upkeep. It is the general impression that Liberties will become inviting to small investors and the big fellows, owing to the income tax levy will have to let loose of millions of bonds. It is better thus. The little fellow should hold as much of the governmental securities as possible.

 During the evening the members ate when they were given the oppor- tunity. For every once in while some one would start up some old familiar song.

RADIUM PRICES CUT

The price of radium has been cut $50,000 per gram, but it will not cause a rush to purchase among the news paper men of the country. Radium is now a necessity to the medical pro- fession of the country and it is pos ible that experiments with this wond- erfpl salt may give it still more stable place in the scientific world.
 Some day we expect greater field will be opened, which will make it possible the reduction of the metal to a point where it will be available for use throughout the land. Of course, the popular belief that radium holds potential heat and light units, which may be given off without impairing or reducing the value of the material, is all bosh, but it may develop into curative properties that will curtail the inroads of malignant diseases on the human system, which would be a boon to mankind.

 Arthur Sugars, who is now assis- tant trainmaster, stationed at King man, is remembered by many Mohave County people. MT. Sugars was con- ductor on the Santa Fe running through here 15 years ago.
 Mrs. J. L. Perlill, who has been visiting in Kansas all summer and fall, has returned to her home in Katherine. Mrs. PerlilPs sister, Miss Josephine Lewis, returned here with her to spend the winter.
 The Kingman school pupils are en- toying two days vacation from the regular routine of the school year.
 Tom Devine is busy remodelling the lobby of the Beale Hotel. He plans to put in an up-to-date fountain and service room.
 Byron Duncan had an accident this week that came near costing him his left eye. One end of a pole hit by some rushing cattle did the damage. MT. Duncan was knocked down but was soon on his feet again. The pole just missed his eye.
 Ernest Sirbeck, graduate prescrip- tion druggist, is the latest addition to the King1nan Drug Company's force made by James Sharpe. Mir. Sirbeck who was formerly from Fl Paso, was with the Oatman Drug Company just previous to his coming here .r
 Frank w. Dryden, who recently vis-. ited in this county, accompanied by his daughter, has gone back to Yava- pal county, where he is the superin- tendent of the Howard Copper mines. MT. Dryden was formerly the super intendent of the Boundary Cone Min ing company, at Oatman. A. L. Runyan this week brought in from the Hibernia mine several won derful samples of copper-silver ore. The breast of ore is now about 16 inches wide and carried exceptional ly high value. The vein is about three feet thick and carries values through out, but the rich streak is possibly the richest body opened in the Wal lapai mountains.

YUCCA NOTES
O. A. Eshom, wife and son were

O. A. Eshonl, wife and son were Kingman visitors last Monday.
 Neal Bros. and w. H. Munds and others shipped five cars of cattle, mostly steers, last Saturday. The bulk going to San Diego. We are told prices run $25, '$35, $45. Much of the stuff was weighed. ,>..
 Telly Bland's shipment of cattle has been delayed owing to the car shortage.
 Yucca is very busy now with so much construction work going on. Several strangers around, and three new families.
 Preparations for Thanksgiving seem very limited. Really one should be thankful every day and not try to load it all into twelve short hours.
 The families of H. w. Munds and Ivan Neal will celebrate Thanksgiv- ing jointly.
 MT. Franklin Hopkins who arrived in Yucca the first of the month from Chicago died in the hospital at King man last Saturday. He was suf- ferer from tubercular throat trouble contacted from ulcerated teeth. Mrs. Hopkins and her sister Mrs. Munds accompanied him to the hospital at Kingman and everything possible was done for his comfort. His father came out from Grand Rapids in an- swer to 8 telegram, and he and Mrs. Hopkins accompanied the body to that place where interment will be made. The sympathy of Yucca folks is ex- tended to those who are bereaved and we all realize such afflictions seem a wee bit harder coming at this time.
