WASTE OF NATURAL GAS

Natural gas is one of our most
valuable resources-its development
and distribution one of our colossal
industries.
An idea of the magnitude Of the
industry may be gained from the fact
that more than thirty million tons of
coal would be required annually to
replace the use Of natural gas.
The drilling of wells to tap the gas
reservoirs in the earth is onl" the be-
ginning of the great task Of sunni
ing natural gas. The consumers of
gas are often hundreds of miles away,
and to deliver the elusive fuel huge
pipe lines must be constructed
through the hills, mountains and over
rivers, and the gas forced through
these lines by enormous cOmpressOrs
of thousands of horsepower, built at
intervals along the lines.
The pipe lines must be patrolled
day and night to guard against leak
age or breakage, and emergency re-
pair squads must be ever ready and
vigilant to instantly repair damage
done by landslide or flood.
1t is an alarming and serious fact
that this unequalled fuel, created by
nature for the needs of man and de-
veloped and distributed by such
enormous expenditure of energy and
capital, is being thoughtlessly and
prodigally wasted.
Will you, as one of the twelve mil
lion natural gas users, help stop this
waste, in order that the supply may
be perpetuated for your own future
use? You can do this with an i'm
mediate cash saving to Yourself and
without curtailing your needs-sim-
ply by the use of proper appliance
proper adjustment of burners-prop-
er mixtures of gas and air.

Compensation Advocates Ex-
pected to Make Proposal a
Rider to Funding Law.
By H. x. REYNOLDS,
International News Service.

Great Britain's acceptance Of
the American proposal for liqui-
dating her war debt to the. United
States-a plan calculated to bring
at least $175,00O,O 900 annually into
the Treasury for the next half
century-has opened the way for
the enactment of soldiers bonus
bill which can receive the ap-
prevail of President Harding,
bonus advocates in Congress de-
clared today.
Quick to Start Drive.
They were quick to sieze upon
the announcement of the British
debt settlement as the basis for a
new bonus appeal to be addressed
not only to their colleagues in the
Senate and House, but to officials
OF the Administration who have
steadfastly opposed the granting Of
adjusted compensation" to Amer
lean world war veterans.
They pointed out today that Presi-
dent Harding's principal objection
to the bonus as set forth in his
message vetoing the compensation
bill passed by Congress in the last
session, was that the state Of the
country's finances would not per-
NIT the large expenditures conten1-
plated.
Plan Rider to Debt Bill.
This objection, they declared, has
now been eliminated by the debt
settlement, and they were prepared
to stage their new bonus fight at
the same time the Administration
goes before Congress with it's re-
quest for the liberalization of the
debt-funding law so that the agree
ment with Great Britain can be
carried into effect.
A soldier bonus proviso, 1t was
indicated, might be introduced in
the House as a rider to the bill to
amend the funding act, which would
open up the bonus battle again
and compel the Administration to
make certain concessions to speed
up this important legislation.
Treasury officials pointed out
that the laws authorizing the loans
to allied governments during the
war provided that the money re-
ceived in payment should be used
in retiring internal obligations of
the United States, now outstanding
in the form of Liberty bonds and
certificates of indebtedness.
Mellon Opposes Plan.
It was indicated Secretary. Mellon
would be opposed to any attempt in
Congress to amend these wartime
laws so there would be no legal
barrier to the enactment of a SOL
diers bonus bill.
Despite Melons continued oppo-
sition, however, there was a grow
ing feeling in Congressional circles
that the Administration would make
a serious mistake If it did not
grasp the opportunity presented by
the forthcoming British payments
to find way to pay the bonus.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The Poillon
Observation-Disclosures and Charlotte
were 'at home" to newspaper men
today in the Tombs. They recalled
urbanely that fifteen years ago they
had spent a month there.
The fact that they had been held
without fixed bail to plead to an in
dictment charging grand larceny did
not disturb their self-possession. Sen
fences, creamy smooth and tangful as
buttermilk, flowed from the mouth of
Katherine. Epigrams popped from
the gripped lips of Charlotte.
Charles Dusenberry, seventy-three,
had caused their arrest, but for him
they had no word of reproach. Du-
senberry has been twice a widower,
but both sisters described him as
very active" According to Dusen-
berry, Katherine, who was known to
him under her married name of Mrs
Katherine Smith, began inquiries as
to his property. To his charge that
they had sWindled him out of 81, 500
worth Of stock, Katherine said:
1.-The Poillon sisters are not
thieves. They never took a dollar
in their lives that was not will
ingly given to them"
The two sisters contrasted wildly
as they sat in the barred waiting
room, looking out in the steel
sweeping Tomb. Katherine's more
than 200 pounds were blanl1eted in

From behind the mask of her soft
matron's face of fifty-one years
peeped age-old eyes.
Charlotte wore a tan suit of man
nish cut. Her open lapelled coat
showed a mans striped silk shirt
with an aeroplane cloth sports collar
held with a plain gold bar pin. Her
regimental striped fourin-hand
sported a turquoise scarab pin
Broad shouldered, strong handed,
ruddy-faced, she had but to ex-
change her tailored skirt for trous-
ers to step into the part of outdoor

had perhaps pursued her. she re-

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-Another

by district No. II of the United
Mine Workers of America, it was
announced today by the American
Civil Liberties Union, which is CO.

The last attempt to organize that
field resulted in a protracted civil
war which necessitated the calling
out of federal troops.
More than 100 persons were killed
during the fighting.
Scene of Many Feuds.
Logan county has been the scene
Of many bloody feuds and sporadic
fighting between armed guards en-
ployed by the coal operators and
the miners Of District II. Efforts
to enter it by union organizers in
variably have resulted in the union
men being repulsed, some times
with loss of life. The county is
the stronghold of the unorganized
section of Southern West Virginia,
which produces one of the finest
grades of bituminous coal in Amer
lea. There are over 10000 non
union miners there.
The procedure to gain entrance
into Logan county in this latest
effort, is through the law courts,
the American Civil Liberties Union
announced.
Attorneys for the mine workers
union and the Civil Liberties group
have gathered in Charleston, w.
Va, today to make application for
a Federal injunction to restrain
Don Chafin, the sheriff, his depu-
ties and the coal companies from
interfering with the officers of the
United Mine Workers in their eff
