POTTSDAM, Germany, Oct. 2S.- (By the Associated Press)-Former EmDeror WNliam has especially re- quested that no presents be given on the occasion ofh is marriage to Princess Hermine of Reuss. The times are too earnest now for that" the fallen German monarch was quoted as saying.

AMBASSADOR OF
 FRANCE TALKS
 LIN DRY RULING
Declares French Ships Are French Territory and Not
 Subject to U. s. Laws

NEW YORK, Oct 2S.-Jules Jusse rand, French ambassador to the
 United States, on his arrival today on the Paris from France, asserted that ! in the face of the recent "bone-dry'' ruling of Attorney General Daugherty which prohibits the use or carriage of any liquors in vessels entering Ameri- can ports, France can abide only by the laws of France.
 He added, however. that no immed- fate action would be taken by the French embassy in Washington until the supreme court had passed on the ruling
 French ships are a part of the ter ritory of France" said the ambassa dor, and l believe that you properly claim your carriers are part of the United States, wherever they may be. The laws of France, passed several years ago in our parliament, state that one-half bottle of wine must be served to the sailors on a French ship and a full bottle to the stokers. As such wine contains probably 90 per cent water, l can hardly see that it is dangerous for men on ships to drink.
 Further, our doctors maintain that wines of such alcoholic content are beneficial rather than harmful That is their right of opinion and we shall uphold it. If your physicians say otherwise, that is the business of your country"
 Ambassador Jusserand would make no statement in regard to what action the French government might take to yacate the ruling of Attorney General Daugherty, but admitted that confer ence had been held at the French for eign office before he sailed to resume the work of his post in Washington.
 Touching on foreign affairs he de- clared that he could see no reason for a change in the relations of Great Bri- tain and France because of the resig- nation of Lloyd George as premier.
 His only comment on European debts was: France will pay, for France always pays her debts"

onstrates the correctness of geologists in predicting large production for the Teapot naval reserve
 Several gushers. showing oil under the Teapot structure were recently encountered in shale formation, but it was not until yesterday when the first we'll carried to the second Wall Creek tapped the flow proving up the deeper oil bearing formation of Tea pot Dome.
 The well in which the strike was made went under the drilling in" operation several days ago, but it was only on yesterday afternoon that the drill had sufficiently penetrated the formation to determine the product iveness of the second sand. This well had reached a depth of 2,795 feet with the bit 35 feet into the sand when a flow estimated at from 2500 to 5000 barrels rer days was tapped with in creased output expected as drilling continues.

DECLARES BIG
 DIVIDEN NJ PLAN
 FUR EXPANSION
Believed It Better to Cap italize Surplus Than to
 Seek Funds in Market

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-The Stand ard Oil Company of New Jersey, which recently proposed the declara- tion of 400 per cent stock dividend states in it's official publication The Lamp, that the plan was devised to provide for financing the expansion of its business. Company officials be- lieved it better to capitalize it's large surplus with stock dividend than to distribute the surplus and then seek funds in the open market for expan- sion purposes.
 The policy Of the company has been to put back into the business a large share of it's earnings every year the article says.
 These now constitute the con- pany's surplus, and are represented in it's balance sheet by refineries, pipe lines, steamships, raw and finished products and other investments in property, both in this country and abroad" continues the article. That part of the surplus which is in cash is a relatively small portion required
 
 Tn 10 years from 1912 to 1921, in elusive, the company has shown net earnings before taxes of SITS. .16S, ,26O. Of this considerable sum, S115,517 .677 has been paid to the government for taxes, $222,O65.226 represents aggre- gate dividends for the period, and 437,5S0,357 has been absorbed by the needs of the business referred to-
 The company says that the return during the past ten years on its in. vestment has averaged, only 12.75 peri cent and that during the same period holders of common stock have in div idends thirty per cent of the com- pany's earnings.
 It is also pointed out that the earn ings of the company have been sub jected to all taxes ppliable-income, excess profits and others-both at home and abroad.
