And the white ants never ceased fill

boss for prosecutor of Essex county.
Larson is no fool, as we said during the campaign last
fall. He lis just starting his three-year term in the senate anu
he is not going to blight his career the very first month.
Every Republican who votes for the confirmation OF

The faint of Nugenlism and all that it means would be upon
them.
Senator Larson did not hesitate for an instant when
asked where he stood in regard to the Nugent appointment
There were no ~quibbling or conditions. He was most en-
phatic in his denial of having ever minated that he might
vote for Nugent's confirmation; he resented the inference
that had been made that there might be conditions undef
which he would give Nugent his endorsement.
It is a fine thing when a man knows exactly where he
standsand is not afraid to say so. There is a stralght-ior-
war1ness about such an attitude that wins the admiration
even of his enemies.
Senator Larson has met his first lest as senator in a

that they made no mistake i'll placing him in this position OF

THE WORLDS MOST SPECTACLE
LAR PETROLEUM SOURCE

Since the World War emphasized
the Importance of petroleum IN
modern warfare, and awakened a
keen realization of the even greater
part it will be called on to play an
reconstruction and In the Industrial
and commercial development or the
future, interest has turned more
and more to Mexico, which contains
the most spectacular of the present
producing oil fields. This nearby oil
region is the subject of the follow
ing bulletin issued by the National
Geographic Society:
"Mexico came into the world race
for oil production late. Its first
producing well, yielding a d
fifty barrels a day. was brought in
not quite twenty years ago. Now
it has a group of the greatest gush-
ers in the world. a number of which
are capable of producing from
$4,000 to 1O0,0 900 barrels each OF
LIQUID gold daily. BY 1911 Mexican
production reached twelve and a
half million barrels annually and
surpassed that of three of the long
standing leaders among the coun-
tries to which the world looked for
it's oil supply-Rumania, Gallcla,
and the Dutch East Indies.
Mexico Passes Russia
"In 1913 this production was
| doubled, and by 1917 it had more

| lean oil wells yielded nearly 64,00O,-
900 barrels, and in 1919. more than

duction was in excess not only OF
| the current annual production OF
Russia, previously second among
oil producing countries, but also eY-
ceeded Russia's high watermark
of $4,000 900 barrels in 1901. Now
only the United States. with a pro-
duction of nearly 100000 bar
rels, is ahead of Mexico.

HASKIN TELLS OF ALASKA'S CASE

which is being felt in every part OF
the United States. They say it Is not
remarkabla that Alaska, handicap
ned ty her distance from markets
and her limited carriers, should suf-
fer most. They say that each of the
phases of tie Alaskan slump can be
definitely traced 10 a cause In ID
present prices which she is able to
get for her commodities.
At the same time. they agree that
long.range Fedora administration is
a nuisance in Alaska. Some thirty
government bureaus control the re-
sources OF that land, and nearly
everything must be referred 10
Washington. They favor the reiiev-
ing of this situation by the creation
of a local board consisting of rep
re%sentatives of each of the Federal
departments interested in Alaska,
and empowered to act with the
greatest promptness and consider
able discretionary latitude. They also
favor the abolition of certain UNI
workable laws, such as that which
forbids a man to take up land on
both banks of a salmon stream
even though that stream be a mere
brook with one salmon in 1T. Federal
aid in developing transportation In
Alaska Is also a dire need they say
The railroad is only n step. Alaska
needs both highways and shipping
But the Roosevelt policy of con!
servation, they urge, u not be

The coal and oil in Alaska were,
under the last administration, long
withheld from public entry. Now
that the coal and oil leasing bills

laws, which. are certainly lenlent
enough. All of the other resources

timber. coal and oil, are accessible
to development.
In spite of this fact, Alaska has
suffered a severe slump during the
war. Her white population is sara

has only 10 per cert of the popula-
ton of it's palmy days. The Gov
eminent railroad reached Fairbanks,
say the wags, just in time to take
out the population. The salmon

huge returns it onca made. The pro-
duotion of gold has dropped As per
cent since 1916 and the number or
men employed in placer mining has
been cut in half.
Government interference, conser-
walton and red tape arr brought for

as the cause of it all. Give us a

CLEVELAND. Jan. 19:-'Rus-
sian communism Is doomed.
To-day it's sliding down a gentle
incline toward a precipice.
Tomorrow it will reach the pre-
cipice and hurl itself to destruc-
ton.
mot even recognition of the SOW
let government by Great Britain,
France and Italy, which now seems
probable, can save communism
That's how Sir Paul Dukes views
Russia today. Sir Paul, former
British secret service agent in Rus
STA, knows more about bolshevism
than the b%olsheviki themselves.
He lived in Russian eleven years.
He took active part in the revolu-
ton. Now he's just back from Riga.
on the Russian border, where he
gathered fresh information. He's
on a lecture tour in the United
States.
Changes Come Fast
Event is following event in Rus
sia in a most startling fashion," Sir
Paul says. 1.-THE Russian people
continually are asking each other
what will happen next.
"Lenin has quit communism, ex-
cept in name. He's rushing into the
very type of capitalism he's been
condemniLg."
Lenin, Sir Paul says. will make
any concessions to capitalism If he
can keep control of

r o

Money;
Education:
Key industries;
But he won't succeed in holding
any of them-except possibly rail-
ways" the British secret age I adds.
Money now is almost out of the
grip of the government. Bankers
who've kept the Moscow stock ex-
change secretly alive since the
revolution now have come out into
the open with their manipulations.
They're controlling the money.
Education will pass out of COM
munist hands, too. For none Of the
teachers is a communist.
"And how can Lenin control n
KEY industries when, as he says, e
going to give them away to foreign
concessionaries?
"The railways alone are safe
they're not worth wanting. But u
they become valuable, capitalists
will wrest them from Lenin."
World Revolt Hope Conc
Sir Paul sees three big factors
that have made the changes in Rus
STA. They are:
One-Entry Of the American Re-
lief Administration, which showed
! Russians there was no hope for a
world revolution.
Two-Revival - unofficial, of
| course-of free speech.
Three-Weakening of the Com
! munist party.
