Then then consulted a numer- alogist who declared that eleven was the mystic and lucky number for them both.
 The couple also consulted an astrol- ogist who told them to wed on the eleventh day of the eleventh month at eleventh hour on the banks of a river flowing west while they faced east.

 Every available resource of the government will be employed in the enforcement of prohibition" declared the Presidents message. He believed the total estimates of $42,447,000 for the combined air service should ac- complish the ends aimed at, and said "the outlook for the coming fiscal year and that of 1927 is most favor able. It was estimated that the ordi- nary receipts would be $3,S24, 4,224, 900. This indicates surplus of $33O, ,3O7 ,O0O. The outlook for 1926 and 1927 shows the united efforts of executive and legislative branches of the government for economy is bearing fruit.

SEES OPTIMISTIC FUTURE FOR OIL

LOS ANGELES, Dec. g (R-Gen R. L. Peeler, president of the. Califor mia Petroleum Corporation, declared here recently that in the United States the area in which oil1may be found is $50 times the present production area
 Before we prepare to go out of the oil business let us examine some for. mer prophecies" said the speaker He quoted that of Benjamin Crew in 1887, that California production was a disappointment and that the Penn sylvaina field was rapidly diminishing. He quoted the geological survey in 1909 giving but a, decade more of pro- duction. and again in 1919 that the peak of production would decline in 1921. He quoted recent estimates that the known supply would largely be exhausted within seven years in the United States.
 These prophecies have been filled A1h PCcoiIuIoLi, Sdiu G6u6TdI fG6l6r, "and they have all been wrong."
 Tn 1919 production in the United States was 37S,OOO,OOO barrels; in 1924 it was 714,OOO,OOO.
 "The American Petroleum Institute committee shows that the last ten years has produced more oil than the entire previous production. Take Cal ifornia: In 1921 the geological survey estimated this states future produc- tion at 1,S5O,OO0,OOO barrels. Since 1921 California has produced 5O,OO0 900 barrels and at last years rate of output it will require but little more than five years to produce the remain ing 100000 barrels. Today, how ever, the oil to be recovered from pre- sent producing wells and proven fields in this state is estimated at over g. 140,OO0,OOO barrels"

Concentration Of Capital in Coal Industry

require serious attention. Even this,
of course, shows that concentration
in bituminous mining is far behind
anthracite.
THERE are. so bituminous produc-
4 ers with a production of more than
one million tons per annum. They
produce 34,2 per cent of the total out
put of the industry. This compares
with 10 producers and 79 per cent in
anthracite.
Producers Of one-half up to one mil
lion tons per annum, number 100, and
1872 per cent of total output. Those
producing 100000 to 100000 tons per
annum, number S91, with S1.S per cent
of the total tonnage.
These figures show that bituminous
coal is also well Started on the road
Of concentration and monopoly.
Here also concentration is lead by
forces from outside the coal industry
itself. These forces are the United
States Steel corporation; the rail
roads, and combinations of banking
and Industrial interests such as the
Consolidation Coal Co. with $1S1,718,-
324 assetsp $40, 900 acres Of coal lands,
producing in 1920 about eight million
tons; and the Pittsburgh Coal Co.
with $16O,12O,S47 assets, 10000 acres
of coal lands, which in 1920, produced
more than ~ million tons.
TN certain fields, concentration has
4 gone far ahead of the bitumin-
GUS industry as a whole. There is,
for example, the Pocahontas field in
West Virginia. This field, opened up
over so years ago. produced about 20
million tons in 1915, its peak year.
There were so operators in this field,
but almost all of them operate un-
der lease from the Pocahontas Coal
& Coke Co. and the Grocer Land Co.
