Railroad Measure Will

Washington-The question is yet TO

long and-short-haul bill by he house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce. The bill. which passed
the senate by q vote of s. to -, is
likely TO meet more opposition al

had in the senate. Opponents OF
the measure paid little heed to il
when it was in the senate commit
toe, but they apparently have chosen
10 make their fight in the house.
The proponents OF the measure will
not lose any time in seeking a hear
ing when congress returns TO WASH
ington, with the hope Of getting it to
a vote in time to avoid loss OF all
ground so far gained, because this
congress is to adjourn on March :.
The Pacific coast cities are under

oppose the bill, but the intermediate

but they are getting their case before

WORLD IN OIL,
WESTC0TT SAYS

A erican from
Ground Up; Says Price
Is Right.

Il believe the time is coming whei
with every picture OF George Wash

the Father of American Industry"
Thus did c. J. Westcott, owner OF ;
local independent oil concern. con
Glide an able address before the Cald
we'll Kiwanis club Thursday on til.
American oil industry.
Everything about the oil industry
he declared, is wholly American. Il
is rhe only business in the world from
foundation to htest theory OF which
this can be said. he stated. Foreign
oil concerns, when they wish inform.
alton, come to the United States ;o
get it. 1t is because of this fact anc
the part played by Mr.. Rockefeller in
tho development OF this American
business, both at home and abroad
that Mr.. Westcoit bases hi, claim
for distinction for the 'Father OF
American Industry"
Gas 10 Sensitive
OF all products offered on American
markets, gasoline 10 most sensitive
to the laws of supply and demand
Mr.. Westcott said in challenging the
justice OF charges made against the
oil industry OF artihcialy initiating
prices. He cited the fac, that gaso-
line more closely approaches tho 1913
price levels than any other American
commodity. With an index figure OF
100 representing 1913 prices, Mr..
Westcou said that gasoline in 1922
has been sold ~ an average of 81
cent OF it, 1918 price. Farm pro
ducts. on the other hand, arc at l4i
on the same basis while clothing
stands at 200.
Specific gravity as a gasoline quality
tast. means absolutely nothing, Mr..
Wes,cott said. He pointed out that;
the Y. S. bureau of mines tests TO-
y. S. motor oils involve only 4 flask.
a thermometer and Runsen burner
Distillztion is the method employed
to test quality of gas. II d.stilla-
ton begins at l37 degrees and i
at AZ degrees. the gasoline
comes within fpdd al requirements
As q matter OF fact. no gasoline has
been offered western motorists in re
cent years that is not better than this
test requires it TO be. he said.
Wells Cost Cash
In justifying prices for gasoline and
other crude oil products. Mr.. Wesr-
rott pointed out that an oil well costs
from $1,000 in shallow fields and un-
der best conditions TO $4,000 where
deep drilling and outlaying districts
form the setting. or every 100 wells
