OFFERS NEW PLAN
!. TO CONSERVE OIL
Minnesota Man Sees Huge
Saving to Nations Motor
lists in His Scheme.

BY the Associated Press.
The Federal OIL Conservation Board
has under consideration a proposal by
Donald E. Bridgman, Minnesota COM
missioner on uniform State laws and
investigator for the national confer
ence OF commissioners on uniform
State laws on oil and gas development
legislation, advocating uniform
State law to conserve the nations oil
resources. He also urged considera-
ton Of enlarged power for State oil
boards or other State regulatory
bodies to govern production along
conservation lines
Mr.. Brfdgman made these claims for
his plan: Saving Of $4,000, 000,0 900
through increa sed production and les
sened costs; increase proved reserves
from to 20 years; save the au-
tomobile owners and industry from
prospective gasoline shortage: save
the railroads $30O, O0O, 900 annually
through use of Diesel engines with
electric drives for locomotives, with
insured oil supply and reduction of
their fuel bill. and aid the coal indus
try by stabiliZing oil output and re-
move oil from cheaper uses in compe-
t1tion with coal for burning under
boilers.
Believing that a uniform State law
regulating oil production is feasible
and constitutional. Mr.. Bridgman de-
clared that this could be accomplished
by having oil discovery in a new
field developed by trustee, or a cor
the benefit of all land owners, to
the benefit of all land owners to
whom net proceeds would be paid af-
ter meeting development costs.
Special rewards would be set aside
Tor oil discoveries to aid prospecting.
His recommendation, he feels. would
not raise oil prices unduly. as COM
petition between various fields would
stimulate production in a normal
manner
Several OF these suggestions are in
line with views held by Henry L.

PREDICTS GREATER
EDUCATION BUREAU
J. J. Tigert Says 1t Is Unim-
portant Whether 1t Is Branch
or Department.

The Bureau Of Education will be
developed soon to such q degree it
WILL be enabled to assume position
In the educational world comparable
to that now held by the Bureau Of
Standards in the commercial field,
John J. Tigert, commissioner Of edu-
cation, declared last night at a ban
quet meeting Of the educators Of New
York University. here in connection
with the convention of the depart
ment Of superintendent of the Ma
tional Education Association. Co
operation of educational units for the
advancement of the profession was
the subject of the evening.
Recent appropriations made by
Congress for the work Of the Bureau
of Education, Commissioner Ttgert
said. have made possible the abandon
ment of much of the routine work to
which the bureau resorted in the past
when lack Of funds rendered out Of
question any extensive research or
cooperative work.
Services Revamped.
Through larger appropriations and
the removal of restrictions On how the
work of the bureau shall be conducted,
Commissioner Tigert said. the bureau
has revamped it's services so that now
the major part Of it is original. con-
structive reasearch instead of routine
projects.
1T is not so significant whether
this educational unit is called bureau
or a department Of education, whether
the head of it is called a bureau chief
or cabinet secretary, as it is that
there shall be a continual development
of efficient service by this agency as
a clearing house for education" Com
missioner Tigert said.

Opposes State Dictation.
DR.. Smith. speaking on the State
as the proper unit in education, en-
phastzed that State department of
education should not dictate educa-
tIonal policies. Such direction. he as
serted, should come from the local,
municipal units of education, to
which should be left the largest posi-
bic amount of initiative. Dr. Smiths
statements drew applause from the
audience.
Teachers want to coordinate their
efforts with those of administrative
heads of school systems, Miss Nc
Sklmmon said. Teachers should
have say in the selection of text
books and in adoption of policies of
education. she said, pointing out that
teachers have wealth of practical
experience which is valuable.

It's mighty lucky for the girls that

Miss Alice johnson, manager Of the

SO now that we don't take in enough
tips to pay OF the girls. The hotels

very best service. Men and women
do not want to wait even a few min
utes for their wraps when they call
for them, and in order to take care Of
the concerted rush to the checking
room after a private ball or dinner we
have to have anywhere from 10 to 20
girls on duty at once.
THAT means we have to collect in
tips from SIS to $50 in order even to
pay the girls their $3.50 each. II
there isn't margin left over with

Of the biggest functions. too--charity

Women Give Less.
Women. as a class. give less than
men, but both sexes often forget the
check girl altogether. Some persons
just don't approve Of tipping. as they
put 1t, and others find. on delving into
their pockets or purses, that they have
no small change. They would rather
pass up the tip completely than put

CHECKING TIPS GETTING SMALLER
AND GIRLS BECOMING WORRIED
Economy Wave Threatens Jobs-Business Handled
by New York Concern, Which Pays Regular Wages,
But Revenue Falls Below Expenses.

You may or may not have noticed
the worried look on the pretty faces
of the hotel hat-check girls of late.
but, anyway, it seems that the tipping
habit among hotel visitors is not what
1t used to be.
The wave of economy which has
swept over the country during recent
years has made severe inroads on the
tipping business, it is learned. The
onedollar and two-dollar tips OF yes
terday have been Supplanted by the
dime, nickel or even penny gratuity
Of today, according to those who know
about such things, and the hat-check
girl Is beginning to wonder what will
happen to them when tipping becomes
extinct.
OF course. the check girl doesn't
keep that tip given her in exchange
for hat and coat when the big dance
Is over. No. not even that 50-cent
piece put in her hand in return for a
happy smile.
She losses it in the box, with all the
other coins collected by her colleagues,
and when the last thin dime is in she
locks 1t and turns 1t in to her en-
ployers, national checking concern
which operates from New York CITY,
