LOWER PRICES:

The cost of living possibly may get quite a jolt downward
as a result of the present condition of the oil industry.
Things were going along merrily, prosperously, in the
oil industry-when suddenly the drilers struck enognods
gushers in California. The oil from these wells is exceptional
ly higher gasoline.
California now is producing 40 per cnt-two-ffths- %
the oil produced in the Uni'ed States.
Very fine for the owner of the California well. But the
owner of the well in other states is in a tight corner. lis
prices, on oil yielding less gasoline to the barrel, have been
slashed time after time. The result is that the producing end
of the oil business in general is in worse shape, as far as
profits are concerned, than any other big basic industry
probably worse off than general farming.
AS you probably know, oil production is, in the main, sep
arate and distinct from refining. The pipe line companies
and refners let the small man take the chances at finding oil,
then buy his oi-if he finds any-and set prices without con-
suling him.
How can this affect the general cost of livingg Here's
how: There are about 100000 oil wells in America, and new
wells are drilled constantly. So the oil industry consumes
enormous quantities of iron and steel, especially pipe, also
wire and manila cables and a great variety of manufactured
goods.
Prices always are about as high as the buyer can pay. An
oil industry, operating on a losing basis, can't pay former
high prices for supplies.
What1l happen? Unless oil prices rise again, prices of ma
terials used by the oil industry will, by competition, fall.
Once started, there's no telling where such a drop would
stop, nor how many commodities it would affect.

MORE STATEMENTS BUT NO FACTS

One cannot help but wonder what the freeholders meant when
in the statement which they made Saturday they said, in referring
to the financial reports of the county: "These reports are avail
able in the county treasurer's office and open for the inspection
Of anyone who applies, including MI. Hayes and Democratic can
didates who have taken occasion to criticize this method of doing
business"
Apparently these records are not open for the inspection of
anyone who applies, including Mr.. Hayes, for Mr.. Hayes called at
the county treasurers office yesterday and he was refused access
to these records. The county treasurer was away and the subordi-
mates in the office said they had no authority to let anyone see the
books. This does not seem to uphold the statement of the free
holders. What are they afraid of, anyway
Yesterday County Solicitor Richardson came out with a state
ment making more promises. But it is not statements and prom
ses that the people want, it is the facts, figures and details. 1t
is to be noticed from Mr.. Richardson's statement that the free
holders. for whom he speaks, are beginning to hedge a little. Mr..
Richardson refers to the willingness of the %freeholders to answer
all reasonable questions. This leaves a large loophole. Any
question that is likely to embarrass the freeholders may be termed
unreasonable by them. What does Mr.. Richardson mean by 'rea-
sonable questions'9
Mr.. Richardson is amusing as he goes on to say that the
questions already propounded twill be referred to the respective
departments for answer and as soon as the available information
is obtained the the answers will be published Really, the ques-
tons are not so complicated as all that. After reading in the free
holders's statement all the fine things said about the manner IN
which the county books were kept, one would think that 1t
would be but a matter of a minute or two to get all the intorma-
ton the taxpayers want. Sure the county treasurer has all the
vouchers, slips and the payroll of the county. 1t is not necessary
TIC refer to any departments. to get this information.
Then, Mr.. Richardson says there need be no hurry about
handing out this information. He says it will all be put before
the voters during the ordinary course of the campaign as the "free-
holders intend to give a full account of what has been accom-
plished during their administration This looks as if the free
holders were not going to let the Democrats get the information
they want first hand, but, will hand out in their own way such
information as they choose to give in an effort to meet the de-
mands of the taxpayers. Mr.. Richardson statement is quite diff
ferent from the statement of the freeholders last Saturday.
In the meantime, we still await the facts.

THE STATEN ISLAND BRIDGE

It was a big day for Rotary yesterday when the governor of the
state, the state senator from Middlesex and two of the three assem-
blymen from this county attended its weekly luncheon and spoke in
behalf of the proposed bridge between this city and Tottenville.
The Rotarians have taken up the agitation for the Staten Island
bridge as one of the civic projects to be backed by the club, and
they got off with a flying start yesterday.
1t was particularly gratifying to receive the message that
Governor Silzer brought, to the effect that the State House Com
mission has provided the $4,000 needed to proceed with the pre-
liminary survey for the bridge. The last Legislature passed the
Hanson bill authorizing the survey, but there was no appropria-
ton made for the work. The fact that the State House Commits
sion has provided the necessary funds shows that the authorities
at Trenton see the necessity of a bridge across Staten Island
sound at this point and are doing what they can to further it.
The big work is still ahead, however. Such a structure as will
be required here will cost several million dollars. The fact that
New York will bear half the expense makes it comparatively easy
for New Jersey. If New York is willing to go ahead with the pro-
ject surely New Jersey cannot afford to lag behind.
The fight is going to come when the bond issue for New Jer-
scy's share is put up to the people. With the Interstate Bridge
and Tunnel Commission soon to appeal to the state for more money
to finish the tunnel under the Hudson river, the people of the
state are going to be reluctant about voting so many millions for
this kind of work. 1t is going to be a real task to get a bond issue
for the bridge here approved.
There is no reason for being discouraged, however. Big
projects of this kind are advanced only a step at a time. With
the preliminary survey accomplished we can plan for the next
move, and by the time we have got up to the actual building of
the bridge its necessity may be so apparent that there will be no
trouble in getting the state to appropriate the funds to defray the
cost

YOUR HEALTH
Rotation .of Food
BY DIR. CLIFFORD c. ROBINSON


1t may be incorrect 10 use The term
rotation in speaking of bo6y~build-
ing foods. Rotation CT crops by the
farmer is q well-knoNn process. Ro-
ia. on of FOOLS or a systematic
change of diet is On the same prin
ciplr.
Most people know what 1t means
to get in a rut, going over and over
again the same thing in the same
way. 1t is not best to do this, in
the selection OF food for your daily
needs.
OF course there IL a Jorge class of
families who compelled through
force of circumstances to adop. a
certain regime in diet. in order to
make the family income fill the bill.
Yet even in families with small in
comes, the rotation of food car be
successfully carried out and a dis
tinct gain in health will result. Not
only will a certain kind Of food taste
better If sidetracked for a while, but
the different protein, fat and starch
foods will get a better chance to do
their proper work and a surplus of
any one class ay be avoided.
The average working man of nor
NAL weight, for his age and height,
requires from $500 to $500 Galleries
a day. The term calorie refers only
to energy, so you will have to bal
ance your daily needs in choosing
your food for the table in proportion
to their calorie giving values. Just
a few may serve for an example.
In the protein or bodybuilding
foods a 100 calorie portion is as fol-
lows: Beans. about two tablespoon
fuls; roast beef, small slice; eggs,
II and one-third; milk small cup,
Fat foods; Bacon, two small slices;
olive oil, tablespoonful; butter. large
spoonful.
Starch foods. Bread, one large
slice; small portion of oatmeal; one
! medium baked potato.
Sugar foods: Granulated sugar
two tablespoonfuls; molasses, about
the same portion.
Mineral foods: One baked apple
one orange, three heads lettuce, one
head cabbage.
The housewife can with a little
patience and experience choose her
daily change in her bill of fare with
the greatest good to all members o.
the family. This change or rotation
in food made daily or weekly VII
prove of great health-giving value.
