Sand Sold to City Is
 Found Below Standard

The advisabiity of establishing a city laboratory was discussed at the meeting of the board of public works last night, the matter having been brought to notice by the fact that sand and cement being used on a construction contract here have been shown to be inferior by a chemists tests. Chairman F. l.. Conlon and City Engineer J. D, Wil- Hams said the chemist who tested the materials used by the state had done tle same for this city's sam pie and had found them far below standard, In spite of the company's guarantee.
 Although this test cost the city S10 a sample, the money is thought to be well spent because of the in- formation acquired. but to prevent inferior materials being foisted upon the city, a municipal laboratory may be established and equipped. City Engineer Williams has been in- structed 10 look into tho matter, which will be brought up again at a later meeting of the board.

 By It's methods as pioneer de- yeloper and in licensing others to use its processes the answer says. "The corporation has served the public and has voluntarily enlarged the trade opportunities of Its conn petitors, instead Of reserving all the benefits of It's patents exclusively to itself, as 1t lawfully might have done"
 The answer sets up that the White Eagle oil & Refining company, the the Texas company are competing in Missouri with the Standard oil company, and mono of them is limited to the marketing territory. The patented process, 1t asserts, produced an economy in the cost of gasoline and increased the supply and that the effect of the licenses did not tend nor did 1t give the Standard oil Company any monopoly or power to restrain trade"
 In 1918 and 1914, it states, the company did more than 75 per cent of the business in gasoline and other petroleum products in its territory and In Missouri,F and that there has been "a constantly increas- ing and intense competition in the sale of such products in said ter ritory," so that as result of such competition the company at pres ent is not doing more than 45 per cent of the business in its territory and in Missouri.

STANDARD OIL Co.
 FILES ITS DENIAL
Insists It Has Lived Up to
 Letter Of Law
By The Associated Press,

By The Associated Press,
 Jefferson City, Mo, Oct. S.-An answer setting forth that the Stand ard oil Company of Indiana had liv- ed up to the spirit and letter of the Missouri supreme courts order of June 2S, 1913. with respect to the states antitrust laws, was filed to- day in reply to the custer action of Attorney General Barrett, filed September II. The answer pleads that the company has, by its licens- ing of other manufacturers to use its refining methods. aided its com pet!tors in enlarged trade opportuni- ties instead of restraining trade and has served the public in such a way that the price of gasoline has been kept more nearly to the level of 1913 than prics of any other commo- dity in general use.
 The proceeding begun in Septem- Der seeks to set aside the supreme court order of 1913 permitting the company to do business so long as it obeys the state laws, That condi- tional order followed a judgment in 1909, in which the company was held to have violated the laws and was ordered busted from the state.
 The answer states that by its own processes the company through H. censing other refiners to use its patents, was able to produce double the percentage of gasoline previous Ily derived from a barrel of crude oil.
 From the residue, after gasoline and kerosene had been extracted from petroleum under former meth ods, the company produced new product, virtually identical with gasoline as formerly distilled. Such new gasoline. or special product, could not lawfully exist except as the company authorized the use of it's patent for such production, the answer says in reference to the Mis- souri Attorney Generals declaration ] that gasoline is gasoline" and Its

Clerks and Handlers Want 1920
 Wage Rate Again

Chicago, Oct. s.-Railroad profits totalled ten billions of dollars in the last 12 years and are now running at approximately a billion a year. E, H. Fitzgerald, president of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks. Freight Handlers and Station Em- ployes, declared in opening the wage hearing involving the Brotherhood's request for a restoration of 19.0 wage rates before the United States railroad labor board today.
 Fitzgerald cited the increasing prosperity of the industry as ground for reconsideration of present wage rates by the board. The rates established by the board in 1920 were cut by 1t during the depres- sion extending through 1921 and 1922, when, he said, the board stat ed 1t would be able to give in- creased consideration to the scienti- fic adjustment of living and sav- ing wage," when the condition of the carriers was improved.
 The union president argued that in view of the fine condition of the railroads today, the board should make good 'the implied promise to reconsider the justice of wages set in previous decisions. He quoted statistics of the national industrial conference board and government figure in an effort to show that wage earners were close to or a6ove the 1920 level and contended that the employees he represented should be accorded the same measure of jus tice. Their earnings. he said, fell
