GERMAN RAILROADS SEEK PASSENGERS
Advertise and Hope to Put on
 Better Cars Soon

Dusseldorf, Jan 9.-The Ger man Railway Administration is in- troducing American efficiency methods.
 The bureaucracy inherited from Imperial times. is giving place to business methods Various subordi- mates, such as divisional chiefs, are being given their initiative Is thus being strengthened. By way of re- dueing operating expenses. the ad- mlnistration Is negotiating for the acquisition of saw mills, steel works, etc., in which much of the equip ment needed is to be made.
 The change of spirit is most mo- ticed In connection with advertising methods, A comprehensive scheme has been mapped out for popular izing travel on the railways of the Reich through folders, maps, nov ing picture films, and travel agen- cies maintained in foreign centers.
 So long as the railway system was merely department of government. there was little done to make active propaganda for the roads. A train ed advertising staff is now at work to change this.
 Just as soon as the railways ad- ministration is on it's feet financial ly, more comfortable cars are to be constructed and put into service.

SEEKING TO KNOW MORE
 ABOUT TRADE UNIONS
Allegations Made In England That Good Workmen Are Handicapped
 by Restrictions.

< London, Jan. g. -- Allegations that trade unions act as combines, and that the good workman is handicapped by restrictions. were made by Sir R, Burton Chadwick, parliamentary secretary to the Board Of Trade. in recent ad- dress. After emphasizing that he was speaking entirely on his own responsibility and not in any way representing the views Of the gov erment, he said,
 q feel that the time has come when we must know more about the whole administration Of our trade unions. We must know why 1t is that q good workman. if he chooses, cannot work as hard as he likes, produce as much as he can, thereby earning for himself q higher wage and by his greater output cheanop the cost of the articles he is producing and so enable the trader to compete in the worlds markets.
 We must know what share of responsibility lies with the admin istration of this huge combine of labor when, In the first six months of this year, we lose 7,5OO,O0O days in strikes
 We must know whether 1t Is in the interest of the community that trade unionism has become great political organization and whether it ia for their good that members are compelled to contribute to the poll tical funds, whether they agree or not with the political doctrine of their union."

approximately s1O,OOO.OOO and con- sumption measured by several hun dred millions of dollars. In the manufacture of dentrifces the United States has taken a leading part, and the annual exports now amount to about $2,5OO,0OO. Tooth pastes consist largely of powdered chalk, soap and essential oils. The bulk of the ingredients. therefore, are obtainable at home.
 U. s. Helps World Keep Clean
 Soap, the basic substance in the toilets Of men and women alike, is made in vast quantities in the United States and more than $3,- G00,O0O worth Is exported annually. Various oils, treated with alkalis, are used in soap manufacture, in- cluding our own cotton-seed oil. Coconut, olive and palm oils are the standard fatty substances employed, however. Annually the Philippines contribute sl6,000,000 worth of CO., conut oil while s5O,O00,0OO worth of olive oil comes from Italy and Spain and $55,000,000 worth of palm oil is imported directly from British West Africa and via Eng land from other tropical countries.
 "The history of Soap is closely intertwined with the history of mod ern civilization. It is believed htat the Phoenicians were the first to make soap and that they taught the art to the Gauls. The Gauls in turn taught the Romans their rather crude method of treating tallow with wood ashes. The Romans im- proved the method somewhat. A complete soap factory whose prod uct was doubtless highly prized by the beauties of ancient Rome, has been found among the ruins of Pompeii. From Rome the use of soap has continually spread farther and farther. One might say that civilization has slipped around the world on film of soap"

RESENT AUTOMOBILES
German Cab Drivers Dislike Motor
 Driven Vehicles

Berlin, Jan. g. - The probable elimination of horse drawn cahs from the streets of this city by the motor taxi, has brought up the ques- tion of the future of the 1920 cab drivers of Berlin who today are far from pleased with the change that is coming over the city.
 The young men naturally become chauffeurs but some older drivers seem unable 10 adjust themselves to the new vehicle. It has been sug- gested that two cabbies, an older and a younger one. club together and acquire an auto taxi between them in such a manner that the older man will attend to keeping the car properly cleaned, repaired. and disinfected. while the younger man does the driving.

CARRIAGE OF POPE
Six Snowwhite Suotless Horses are Being Chosen to Take Part in Holy Year in Rome in 1925.

Budapest. Jan. 9.-The stud of Count Esterhazy, one of the wealth. jest noblemen in Hungary, has been singled out to supply the six snow- white, spotless horses that are to draw the coach. in which Pope Plus XI is to ride during the Holy Year celebration at Rome in 1925.
 An Italian commission visited all the leading studs Of Hungary recent ly in order to select the horses de- sired by the Pope. There were plenty of beautiful specimens to be found, even horses that at first sight seemed white. But in each case some dark speck was discovered on them. Count Esterhazy's stud was the only one that had absolutely white horses.

SEES INCREASE IN
 OIL PRODUCTION
London Oil Company Head Says
 Price Will Rise

London, Jan. 9, - At the recent annual meeting of the Anglo-Per- sian oil company the chairman, Sir Charles Greenway. told tho share holders that the company's production in 1923-2i was 3,714,- PIG tons and in tho current finan- cial year would probably exceed 4,250,000 tons.
 q may add." the speaker said, that were we to tap all the wells already opened up, we could at once bring our production up to 1O,O00,000 yearly, or more, and that by drilling in the wells which have already been carried down to the cap rock we could still further largely augment our production within few months"
 Regarding market prospects, Sir Charles remarked: Last year 1t looked as if consumption were overtaking production. This would have happened had 1t not been for the bringing in of some new fields in the United States, and for the reckless system of drilling obtain ing In that country. The combined effect of these causes was, tenn porarily only, I think, again to bring production ahead of con- sumption.
 "On the other hand there has been an enormous increase all over the world in the consumption of petroleum products. almost suffi- cient to counterbalance the in- creased production, and now that the production of crude has again begun to decline there is every req son for believing that. subject to no prolific new fields being discovered In the near future, the barometer of oil prices has reached its lowest point, and that any changes will be in the upward direction"

His idea was to put these unemployed men to work building good roads, results of which We now see, but the furnish ing of money for building by banks should not bear interest, as it is really Government money, loaned to banks, on which interest is charged He says the same thing would solve the problem of merchant marine, sol diers' bonus.

New Strikes At
 Nuka Bay Being
 Made Regularly
DOWNEY-BABCOCK STAKE AN OTHER CLAIM NEAR THEIR
 ORIGINAL FIND

The report of new strikes being made at Nuka Bay is beginning to be a commonplace piece of news for it appears each time boat arrives from the new quartz camp, some one else has made find.
 The Downey brothers and Tom Bab- cock went down to the camp two months ago to put up cabins, con struct millhouse and in general prepare for the installation of the mill and to make the camp habit able over the winter. This has been done and the mill left Seward last week for their claims. But during MT. Babcock's brief trip into town he brought word in that Dave Dow ney had made another strike at a distance of approximately 300 feet above the original location. It ap- pears that the new strike runs to a higher grade than the original, but the vein is slightly smaller. Up to the time Mr. Babcock left the camp the vein had been traced 200 feet.
 The 15 to 25 ton Ellis Ball mill, style No. B, arrived from Seattle last week and was taken to the property; also tram line 1900 feet. The mill house just completed is IS by 24 feet. Two fine log cabins are also complete in every detail. MT. Bab- cock expects to return to Seward this week and buy horse for work at the mine.

To Get View of
Restocking Lakes
For Summer Visitors

The summer citizens bureau of the
Waterville Chamber of Commerce is
commencing action with the purpose Of
restocking with fish the various lakes
and streams in the Waterville region
which each year bring into the State
and central Maine hundreds of visit
ors. President Harry S. Brown of the
chamber is sending to summer citi-
zens in the resorts around Waterville
a letter requesting their assistance in
a survey of fishing conditions. The
opinion Of the people who are fishing
the lakes and streams is being asked,
and it Is planned If possible to ar
range a conference with Game Com
missioner Parsons at. which the mat
ter of restocking the various fishing
grounds will be considered.
Attendance at this conference by not
only all-year residents of Waterville
but also by summer citizens is hoped
for, as it is felt. that the people who
come to Maine principally to fish may
perhaps be better able to speak con-
cerning the needs of the various fish
ing regions.
President Browns letter likewise
requests suggestions from summer
citizens as to how the summer citi-
zens' bureau of the chamber may be
of help in furthering their summer
business and nmaking the communi-
ty still more inviting to summer
guests
