the present international situation in
Europe, Col. Edward M. House. per-
sonal representative Of President Will

willing to talk Of his experiences aboard
the liner than Of the present attitude
Of European statesmen toward America.

GASOLINE CONSUMPTION
SHROWS WIDE VARIATION
Dierence of 325,742,OOO Gallons Noted
Between High and Low Points
For Year.

The tremendous fluctuation in the
demand for gasoline from one season
to another may be judged by compar-
ing the lowest consumption for the
year-257, 946,0O0 gallons in February
with the record consumption of $780,
6SS,000 gallons in August.
This represents a difference of $685.
$4,000 gallons, or 126.2S per cent. be-
tween the highest and lowest points
was 549,95S,O00 gallons, or 33,73O, 600
gallons less than the consumption.
That current production is not suffi-
cient to supply the heavy summer de-
mand is indicated by the fact that dur
ing August, the production of gasoline
for the year.
In order to take care of the peak de-
mand, it is necessary for the oil refin-
ing industry to operate on practically
uniform basis throughout the year
The deficit and about 35,OO0.OOO gal
Ions exported were drawn from refin-
ers' storage stocks which were thereby
reduced to 7O3,73S,OO0 gallons, or
about 67 gallons for each registered
automobile.

John Thames is 81 years old, an age
when most men believe they have
earned rest and relaxation from the
strenuous duties of life and are not
TO be expected to rise to heroic heights
But there Is no age limit on heroism,
it seems. The other night when the
lumber plant which he guards as night
Waterman caught fire, and 1t was a
choice between safety and the call of
the duty of his Job, it never occurred
10 him to wait and made decision.
Armed with a slender garden hose, the
Waterman made his way into blaz-
ng two-story building and by his work
and the risk Of his life-checked the
flames from spreading to thousands Of
feet of lumber and beyond. Then he
CROPPED his way through a mass of
flames to the Office telephone and
called the fire department, and re-
turned to his task of keeping things
in hand until they should arrive. Such
'hings are worth remembering, If only
for the sake Of our own souls.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald.
No doubt there is a public con-
science as has been much talked OF
in the arms conference. but that
public conscience exists among ma
tions in their saner moments. In
war. conscience prevents nothing.
Fear or retaliation is the only ef-
fective deterrent of any available
means to accomplish a desired pur-
pose. All other bars of restrain,
are withdrawn. Nations fight like
terrorized beasts.
1t is nonsense to talk about rui-
ing out this or that method Of war
fare or of attempting to bar GER
tain weapons. The nations life
that is at stake will resort to the
most effective course at hand in
order to preserve its existence. II
a resort to arms Is to remain the
means of settling disputes between
nations. il may as well be recog-
nized once and for all that there
will be no lessening of its horrors
when war comes. II will remain
just as brutal as it tever has been.
Each succeeding war will be more
expensive than the last, both in
life and in property; each will be
followed with greater wave or
crime, unrest and industrial dis
ruption. in proportion to its size.

neered successfully. Its true char
acter will soon wear through. As
always has been the case. the most

used. and there will be no rec

fear of effective retaliation.

NEW AIRPLANE COMPASS
DEVISED BY EXPERTS.

A satisfactory type OF airplzne
compass has been invented by Drs.
Paul r. Heyl and Lyman J. Brigg-.
OF the Bureau of Standards of the
Department OF Commerce Plying
tests with 0:s Instrument have
been made, and the air service e
now engaged in pG:ting a number
Of models into service.
The instrument weighs only thir-
teen pounds. while the weight limit
set by the air service was twenty
five pounds
The new compass depends for its
action not on a magnetic needle.
but upon a revolving coiled wire.
This principle is by no means new.
but IL has remained for the Bureau
Of Standards to apply IL in such a
way as TO make the device practi-
cally operative under the very Sc
we're conditions prevailing in ac-
tual flight or airplane stunts.
The problem OF perfecting a sat
isfactory aircraft compass was
given the Bureau Of Standards about
year ago. At the end OF the war
no completely satisfactory compass
had been devised. Its Importance e
aviation is apparent when Il is re
membered that no airplane compa IS
heretofore perfected has been able
to keep up with the evolutions OF a
plane. Whenever the plane turned
rapidly. or was stunted. compasses
were not reliable. The result wa e
that many pilots lost their lives BY
losing all idea Of direction. Several
of the air mail pilots have been
killed because of the lack OF a sat
isfactory compass. One Of them
crashed at full speed into a moun
tain in Pennsylvania
