manufacturer whose sole desire is
to succeed in his business. He must
be shown that he is justified in re-

in any city, and the first thing that
confronts him is the cost of making
the move or establishing a new
plant until he is in production on a

Uncle Sam Passes

fT7HE Government s beIated effort to con-
4 serve our limited and fast dwindling oil
supply is both a tragic reminder and pathetic
admission of the most inexcusable blunder in
the Nation s history.
Today the Government at Washington is
pleading with big oil companies to cooperate
with it to head off gasoline and oil famine
where long since it should have been telling the
oil companies what to do. 1t is begging where
it should be commanding.
In 1921 biologists had already explored
the country for oil. They knew pretty well
where it could be found and about how much
might be expected from the various fields.
They even warned the Nation that our supply
was running low and suggested conservation
measures.
Then, as well as now, the Government
was aware our national defense is powerless
without petroleum and its products. Then, as
well as now, it was known that billions of dol
lars are tied up in industries depending upon
known that "the supremacy of Nations to
quote President Coolidge's warning may be
determined by the possession of available pc
troleum.'
But did the Government act in that sense?
Far from it. Congress, In 1921, turned our rich
oil lands over to the Secretary Of the Interior
to dispose of-which he proceeded to do with
alacrity not to say gusto.
Ever hear of Secretary Albert Fall? OF
Sinclair? Of Doheny9 OF Teapot Dome?
These are just few of the names involved in
scandals growing out Of this unbelievably
stupid policy. Today there are outstanding
457 leases on Government oil and gas lands
from which about an eighth of our stupendous
output of oil is drawn-much of it to sheer
waste, thanks to overproduction.
The excuse given for these leases was that
private corporations were drilling fields adj
joining Government land, thus draining off the
Government pools.
Simon pure rot! Even this city can take
your very house away from you and run a
street through it if it likes. Certainly the
United States could have taken and paid for
adjoining oil lands and held the lot of them
as long as it wanted to. National defense is
more important than 200 per cent dividends to
few rich bond holders. The rights Of no.
OOO,OOO Americans to be protected against for
eign invasion are surely superior to the rights
OF an oil company to sell the public oil to its
own private profit.
Thus the country had the oil situation in
the hollow Of its hand. BY conserving it's own
stores underground, and exercising mini
mum OF control over the industry sufficient
merely to prevent waste, the Government
would not now be in the predicament where it
must needs beg the big oil companies please not
to sell all our oil.
The present conference in Washington
borders on post-mortem. 1t comes precious

Lizzie's sake, to be nice to us and stretch that

A Sermon for Today
BY Rev. john &. Gunn

Text: "That the God of our Lord
Jesus Christ, the Father of glory,
may give unto you the spirit OF wis
dom and revelation in the knowledge
OF Him: that, having the eyes Of
your heart enlightened, you may
know what is the hope Of His call
ing, and what the riches of the glory
of His Inheritance in the saints, and
what is the exceeding greatness of
His power to us-ward who believe"
-Eph. /, 1918.
7ET your attention rest upon
the phrase. 1.-The eyes of the
heart" We have two sets OF
eyes: eyes of the mind and eyes OF
the Observation-Disclosures eyes, spiritual
eyes.
Paul speaks OF those who walk
in the vanity of their mind, be-
ing darkened IN their understanding,
because of the blindness Of their
heart Seeing with the eyes Of
the mind, yet, not seeing with the
eyes of the heart. There are many
things we see with our mind eyes,
such as the laws of nature and the
theories of mechanics and math-
ematics, and even certain great re-
ligious and ethical facts. But only
with our heart eyes can we discern
the secrets Of God and those high
er truths and realities which be-
long to the spiritual and the eternal.
If we do not see these things, If
they are vague and indistinguish-
able to us, it is because of heart
blindness. If we see only with our
intellectual eyes, we necessarily be-
come the victims of manifold mis-

Is 1t possible for man to get
an honorable discharge from the
Navy after he has been court
martialed?

martial or two summary court-mar-
tials during the period of an enlist
ment disqualifies the man for an
honorable discharge.
Is it correct to say 81 was mar
ried from that house?
1t is perfectly correct. The ex-
preston refers to the fact that the
bride marries and goes out from that
house.
What is the estimated cost to
the Government of handling mis-
directed mail?
1t has been estimated that it costs
sl,740, 900 yearly to look UP addresses
on misdirected mail.

Well folks the inevitable has
happened. Last Friday Kennewick
Hi took it upon itself to settle
little argument with Sunnyside,
and when it was all over Kenne-
wick had the best end of foot
ball score by 90. Early in the
game Sunnyside was forced to punt
behind the goal line. but the punt
was blocked giving Kennewick its
first two points. Then with few
minutes to play before the half
ended, Richter received the ball and
passed to Campbell who stood just
over Sunnyside's goal line. The
pass went true and Campbell cool
| ly and calmly collected it Tor a
touchdown. Richter converted the
kick from placement making the
scoreboard read Kennewick 9, Sum
nyside. O. In the second half the
game see-sawed back and forth
up-and- down the field until Ken
rewick was in a position to score
again. Richter plunged thru the
line for touchdown but this
score was not allowed owing to
la Kennewick off-side. Sunnyside
took the ball on downs and punted
out of danger.
