$4,000 SQUARE MILES
HELD AS OIL RESERVE
Executive Order Designates Huge
Alaskan Area AS Naval Fuel
Oil Basin

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-An
area Of $4,000 square miles in the
northwest section Of Alaska has Just
been set aside by President Harding
as naval fuel oil reserve supplv
basin. An executive order designa-
ting this reserve basin was signed by
the president late Monday.
The reservation, according to Sec
rotary Fall, of the Interior Depart
ment, viii be one of the greatest i'm
portanee to the navy, since, for years
seepages Of oil have been found all
along the sea coast. How much oil
the reserve will produce, Secretary
Fall said, is not yet known. as no
Government surveys have been made.
The petroleum possibilities, however,
have attracted private investigation
and about $4,000 acres have been al
lotted to some fifty applicants for de-
velopment. No drilling has been done.
The new reserve adjoins the corner
Of Alaska between Icy Cape and Cape
Barrow, and is bounded by the Arctic
Ocean on the north and west and the
Endicott range Of mountains and the
Colviila River on the south and east.
Il is Tor the most part fiat grassy
tundra, devoid Of vegetation, sparsely
populated and entirely within the
Arctic Circle.
This naval reserve will exceed by
20, 100000 acres the combined area
of the three other reserves, one in
Wyoming and two in California.
In case further exploration should
show the land worth developing, Mr.
Fall said, it will be necessary either
to erect huge storage tank on the
land TO hold the oil until vessels could
take It away during the three or four
months in which the sea in that
region is free from ice, or to pipe 1t
several hundred miles to Fort Hamlin,
on the Yukon, or to Fairbanks on the
Alaska Railway.

MAY CHANGE WEIOLEzPOSTAL SYSTEM
Exile Cannot Break Spirit of
Germ1as1v's Former Kaiser
BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-What is
exile doing for the ex-kaiser?
Is Doom breaking him physical
~ as St. Helena did Napoleon, is he
still capable Of a Comeback"
According to Frederick Pierce,
analytical psychologist, Wilhelm II,
if given the opportunity, is still cap
able of making infinite trouble in the
future just as he has in the past.
This is written, not in the stars,
but in his glands, by which physicians
and psychologists, istead of astrol-
ogists read the future of each indi-
vidual.
"Napoleon's physique and mental
picture showed him to be a man
dominated by a varying, unstable
unbalanced pituitary" says Pierce.
q AS this gland deteriorated with age,
he became fat, indolent, puerile-
minded and apathetic. Had he been
released from exile, it is certain he
could not have come back.
But the kaiser belong to a differ
ent glandualr classification. Had he
been endowed with a differently bal
anced glandular system in his head
and his body, the world might have
been saved the recent war.
"a less active thymus gland in his
chest and more vigorous front lobe
of the pituitary in his head, he would
literally have been less 'chesty' and
more reasonable.
THE kaiser is a glandular in
ferior." Slender, of medium stat
ure, heavily boned, narrow dental
arch, high round forehead, with in
ferior blood vessels, he suggests
the type taht is dominated by the
thym1s, with probably unstable thy
roid and inferior interstitial secre-
ton.
Mentally this type is highly I'M
stable, sometimes delusional, usually
with exaggerated ego consciousness.
It is easily influenced by certain
dominat types, but has difficulty in
sticking to decisions unless influence
is kept in force.
This type is emotionally minded
and easily flattered. Physically in
ferior, it seeks to compensate for
this by being self-centered to the last
degree and when the accident of
birth or circumstance places such
persons in an exalted position, inor-
dinate self-conceit result which can
easily be merged into delusion of
grandeur.
"Napoleon's glands deteriorated
with the advance of age. But the
thymus gland often shows persistent
vouthfulness. TIE ex-kaiser belongs
to a type too unstable to act boldly
and determinedIy on any given line
for log time unless influenced and
buoyed up by others.
Let alone, the kaiser will follow
the lines of the least resistance and
remain a rather brooding bourgeois,
eubiect to bronchitis, sore throat and
had circulation, fits or depression
and increasingly irascible temper
Rnt reareased and returned to a po-
sition of power and influence, sur
rounded by the pomp and tlattery
upon which his nature teeds' ne
could easily revert to his pre-war
type
