Pershing Soon VIII
Meet Call of Duty
In Latin Country

Gen. John J. Pershing, called by his
friends the great test American traveller
of modern times, is expected to return
to this city in a day or two from Lin
coin. Nebr., where he has been the
guest of his sister most of the time
since his return from his triumphal
tour of South America several weeks
ago. He will then complete plans for
another prolonged visit to the South
ern continent as head of the joint mis-
sion which is TO supervise the pleb-
iscite to determine the nationality of
the Tacna-Arica territory now in dis
pute between Chile and Peru. He will
be accompanied on that mission by a
large staff of officials of the State De
partment and Army and Navy officers.
and a battleship will be used for the
transportation of the party.
The date of departure has not been
fixed, as certain important details to
be made by Chile and Peru are still
unsettled.
Next week Gen. Pershing will go
to New York city, where he will be
given a testimonial by the national
organization of the American Legion
at the Hippodrome Saturday evening,
April %. AS a special compliment to
the commander of the American ex-
peditionary forces, the Secretary of
War has ordered the United States
Army Band at Washington Barracks
to New York city to take part in the
testimonial. Gen. Pershing was in
fiuential in the organization of that
band as the natural successor of the
band at his headquarters in Paris
during the World War.

SUM MER JUNIOR HIGH
SESSIONS PLANNED
Mcfarland and Jefferson Schools
Expected to Be Opened as
Demand Grows.

Two junior high schools probably
will be operated for the first time this
Summer as a part of the vacation
school system. Walter r. Patterson,
director of special schools, pointed out
today that there has been an insistent
demand for the opening of Summer
courses in Junior high school work,
and as a result he is considering rec
ommending to the Board of Educa-
ton that two junior high schools be
added to the vacation school system.
Summer school classes have been
conducted in past years exclusively
for elementary and senior high school
pupils, but the rapid expansion of the
Junior high school system in the Dis
trict, it was explained. makes it vir-
tually incumbent on the public schools
to provide Summer classes for pupils
in the junior high schools to make UP
subjects in which they are deficient.
/ Mr.. Patterson has not decided which
of the two junior high schools he will
recommend opening for the Summer
work. He has in mind the Mcfarland
and the Jefferson.

Gasoline Bootlegger
Blamed for Drop
By Universal Service.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2G.-The Case
line bootlegger" who has been under
selling the big oil companies in the
Mid West is responsible for big price
drops in oil in the affected territory,
it was learned today.
With the announcement of the
Standard Oil company of Indiana that
a Ntwo-cent a gallon reduction in gaso-
line prices has gone into effect solely
to meet comeetition," the Sinclair Oil
Refining company and the Texas COM
pany announced similar reductions in
the retail price.
Chicago stations are selling gasoline
at 10 cents a gallon, while Wichita
dealers asked 1873 cents, the lowest in
many years. The peak price in the
Midwest is at Rapid City. S. D., where
gasoline is retailing at % cents.
Many towns have two prices, while
in others the drop was severe, as in
Decatur, where gasoline was reduced
from % to 10 cents over night.
"Gasoline bootleggers" who have
been underselling the bigger companies
include not only the purchasers and
distillers of crude oil but many indie
pendent refiners. The price reductions
made by the bigger companies. it was
intimated, are dsigned to drive the
OUTLAW" manufacturer and dealers out
of business.

HITS
WALL st. FOR
100000
BY Universal Service.

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Jesse l..
Livcrmore, spectacular stock plunger,
resumed operations yesterday and made
big profits, according TO Wall street
reports.
Early in the day the report was cir
culated that Livermore was back in
the market after an absence of more
than a year. Before the close Of the
market. ticker and brokerage gossip
had LivcrmOre long on 10000 shares
Of United States Steel and equal
amounts Of motor stocks az prices
which would indicate profit of at least
S2,000,000.
All the stocks mentioned in the re-
ported benefited TO the extent of a
fraction of point TO over five points.
MOTORS ACTIVE.
Wall street has used the name of
"Livermore" on numerous OCCASIONS in
the year which has passed since b.
quit the stock market and had all
stock tickers ripped out of his office
in the Heck Sheer building.
White Motors and Chrysler we're the
two motors stocks most mentioned in
connection with the Livermore Tumors
today. White rose over five points,
while Chrysler advanced $50 a share
as result of demand which persisted
throughout the day.
A year ago, when Liyermore was
known without doubt TO be bearish,
White Motors sold $40 share cheap
er than it did yesterday, and Maxwell
stock, for which Chrysler was issued
in exchange, sold some $SS less.
ONCE BROKERS' IDOL.
Five years ago Livermore was the
idol of Wall street. He led the bull
market which started prior TO the
Harding election. He managed pools
for several institutions and individu-
ais. In 1921 he turned bearish and
in public statements explained why.
That started his decline in favor of
higher Wall street circles.
After a summer at Palm Beach, Fla,
last year, wiring TO a friend here, he
expressed bearish views on the stock
market. The Coolidge bull market"
was just getting under way and for
the space Of a few hours was inter
rupted b. the circulation of Liver
more's views.
The stocks Of which he was report
ed short were pushed higher and high
er. When Mr.. Coolidge was elected
Livermore covered at a tremendous
loss, his friends declare.

GASOLINE DOWN
To LOW PRICE
Of YEAR
Producers Ascribe Drop 10
Overproduction Rather
Than Trade War.

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Automobil-
lists of the country are enjoying the
lowest gasoline prices of the year. In
scores Of cities motorists are paying
from 3 to 5 cents gallon less than
the years peak prices in the middle
of July. The average price in "
representative cities, however, is still
about cents a gallon above the low
level hit last summer during the trade
depression.
New York leaders in the oil business
deny that a trade war is on, though
they admit that there is fight to OBJ
tain all the business offered. Price
slashing is ascribed solely TO over
production, despite the heavy demand.
Shipments eastward from the Paci-
fic Coast. where oyerproduction first
manifested itself, have depressed the
oil business in the midcontinental
field.
c. o. Wilson in the current issue
of the Oil and Gas Journal says:
1.-The increased recovery of gasoline
from crude petroleum, the accumula-
ton of gasoline stocks in coastal terri
tories and the failure of many refiners
to adjust their production to slack
ened demand in their territories are
the principal factors in the weakness
of the motor fuel market.
Although gasoline stocks January
1 were larger than necessary refiners
added 396,200.555 gallons to this stor-
age on July /. Only 22,0O0O00 gal
Ions were taken from storage in
June"
The export demand fell off sharply
during the recent high price levels, ii
is said in trade circles and even now
is far below normal.
