trouble to cast oversize; from an open
hatch poured a sour, acrid stencil. A
strange contrast with the Royal James
Inside the companionway under the
poop we tripped over the usual litter
Of broken bottles, pistol-fiints and odds
and ends of cast-off clothing. Silver
balanced himself on his crutch against
the wall, struck flint and steel to
slow-match and ignited the wick of a
whale-oil lanthorn which depended
from a hook. Holding this above his
head, he surveyed the double line of
stateroom DOORS very similar to the
plan Of the cabin quarters Of the
James.
"Room for ALL" he pronounced.
This here to larboard Is Flints, and
Bones berth's opposite. T'others are
full O. junk, but We can soon clear 'em

We did the best we could, which was
very little, and then persuaded MOira
to risk lying in the cleaner Of the two
rooms-we had chosen it for her be-
cause it had bolt on the inside of the
door and offered her degree of
privacy-while Peter and l berthed
across the companionway, Peter on the

to say that we went promptly asleep

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Feb. 3.-Broadened Euro
pean demand for North American
wheat, together with persistent rain
hampering the movement of the Ar
gentine crop did much today 70 bring
about new advance in wheat values,
Chicago closing prices on wheat were
unsettled at one cent to liz cent net
advance May NEW 177as to 177h and
July 1858 to 1861. Corn finished
u to as cent up, oats at s cent to
3s cent gain, and provisions varying
from 2 cents decline to a rise of fif%
teen cents.
In the face of profit taking sales
that reached a large total, the wheat
market displayed strength from start
to finish. Export business consisted
largely of Durham wheat from the
United States, the great bulk of Can
adian. In this connection it was
stated that the Canadian growers
pool had disposed of practically all
the wheat which the pool was hold
ing at Georgian Bay ports and at
Buffalo. Dwindling of domestic stocks
in the United States as we'll as rela-
tive SCAN nUln6SS OI european CO1IHIleI-
cial supplies and of supplies on ocean
passage were additional strengthen
ing factors.
Houses with eastern connections
led the speculative buying in the
wheat market here. Some observers
drew the inference that eastern in
terests were accommodating a Large
line, and the fact was pointed out
that according to trade authority,
the worlds wheat carrying over will
amount to only SO,O0O,0OO bushels at
the close of the present season. On
the other hand the fact was pointed
out that according to trade author
ity profit taking sales today became
of heavily increased volume at $1.7S
and above for the May delivery here.
Unfavorable weather for the move-
ment of corn had some little effect
toward better prices both on corn
and oats.
Buying on the part of smaller
packers gave some firmness to pro-
visions.

tBy Dispatch A. P. wirs1

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Negotiations
were practically completed here to-
night for a merger of the Associated
Oil company with other western oil
properties, whose identity was not
revealed. Blair and company, bank
ers who are engineering the combi,
nation, said that statement probab-
ly would be given out within the
next "A hours. Wall Street learned
unofficially that Associated and Pan,
American Western Petroleum would
form tine nucleus of the new combio
nation, with California Petroleum
likely unit later on.
Control of Associated Oil has been
sought by several banking and oil
interests since the merger in Decem-
ber of the Pacific Oil company with
the Standard Oil company of Califor-
mia. Pacific Oil which has had a
controlling interest. in Associated for
years, announced that it woul2 dis
tribute to it's own stockholders its
holdings of Associated Oil stock,
which would not go into the Standard
Oil of California merger for legal
reasons.
When this became known, large
stockholders of Pacific were APP
preached with offers for the purchase
of their Associated Oil holdings. The
offer Of Blair and company is re-
ported to have been the most accep,,
table, and it was reported tonight
that an agreement along THE lines
proposed would be signed within "a
hours. 1t is understood that minori-
ty stockholders of Associated woulo
receive the same terms granted to
the majority interests
AS a result of it's merger with the
Standard Oil company of California,
Pacific Oil stockholders will receive
two shares of Associated stock for
each five shares of Pacific held, and
at least SO in cash and share for
share in the new Standard Oil of CAL

Pacific's one-third interest in $10,
100000 capital stock of Associated
Pipe Line will be distributed equally
between Associated which now owns
one third, and Standard Oil of Cali
fornia, which acquires the third in
terest formerly held by Pacific.

IMPORTANT BILLS
STILL WAIT ACTION
Congress Enters June Facing
Long Debates and Adjour-
ment Date Unknown.

Congress enters upon another Caien'
dar month tomorrow with the date
for adjournment still in doubt because
of important legislation awaiting &C.
ton. including farm relief, expansion
of the military air forces and the
French debt settlement.
When the Senate meets tomorrow
an effort may be MADE to invoke clio
ture. limiting debate. to force a vote
on the migratory bird bill. which has
been before the Senate for two weeks.
Leading advocates Of farm legisiat tion
served notice Saturday that If the bird
bill is not disposed of early this week
they will move to lay it aside and take
up the farm problem.
House leaders have arranged a pro-
gram calling for action on the French
debt Tuesday and the transmission of
that problem to the Senate where a
long fight Is threatened unless resort
is made tonight sessions to wear down
the opposition.
Wednesday the House will seek tc
clear up many bills on the calendar
and will devote the remainder of the
week to the $36, ,000. 900 rivers and har.
bors measure. with its highly con.
troverted lake water diversion section.
Efforts to get the House agriculture
cOnnlCt6e TO frame IflOOIHeu dkTl-
culture aid measure are to be renewed
this week. but the present outlook is
that the committee will devote its at
tention to minor measures awaiting
action by the Senate before undertak.
ing to embark upon another long ses.
sion to compose differences among the
friends of the farmers as to the form
a relief bill should take.
With the Army and Navy service
expansion bills, the Dill radio control
measure and many other minor pet
projects in the offing, Congress appar-
emily is a long way from adjournment.
The House will be in a fairly good
position after this week, but the Sen
ate still will find itself in a muddled
situation.
There is certain to be a lot of dis.
cussion on farm relief, as a number of
Senators up for reelection now or who
will he two years hence, will make
speeches on the subject largely for
home consumption. Several already
have gone on record.

URGES DRAFT|NG
OF MONEY IN WAR
Representative Robson in
Memorial Address Recon-.
mends New Policy.

Speaking at memorial services held
this morning at Congressional Gene
terry, Representative John M. Robsion
Of Kentucky recommended that legis-
ton be enacted causing American dol
lars and property to be drafted In the
event of war as we'll as American
flesh and blood.
"Win It be out of place" MIR. Rob
sion asked, for me TO point out a serv-
ice that we can render to the Nation?
In all the wars that have gone before
our Nation has claimed the right. and
1t has the power. to draft the Ma
tion'S manhood and woma nhood, flesh
a nd blood, for its defense, while the
dollars may remain at home and prof
iteer upon the Government.
'In the recent World War dollars
and property too, often profiteered
and there were filched from our
country, when it's very life was at
stake, billions. / know of instances
in which every time the sun went
down, men in business had reached
for himself made more than $1,000
of profits. while the American boys on
Flanders Field had $1.25 a day, board
and clothes. Should we not shape
our laws that when the next war
comes, and l pray God 1t may never
come, American n dollars and American
property may be drafted the same as
American flesh and blood"

LACK OF CAMELS SAID
 TO HAVE AIDED MOVIES
Miniature Desert Is Built on Stage Made to Look Like
 Real Thing.

Hollywood. Cal, May 21 tPD - A dearth of camels in southern California led to the building here Of one of the most ambitious 'in- side exteriors" ever attempted for the movies.
 When Director George Ftiz- maurice prepared his schedule for Son of the Sheik," he planned to spend the first few weeks Of pro- duction in the Arizona desert some miles from Yuma. For the long shots 1t was necessary to have several dozen camels. A search re- vealed that none was to be had. All of them in southern California ZOOS were being used in other pie lures. Fitzmaurice, resorting 10 strategy, decided to build his own desert. AS a result, thousands of tons of sand were piled onto the big stage at the studio, and skilled craftsmen evolved an oasis, a clump Of palm trees and two ruined temples. The set was constructed in such perspective that to the camera 1t appeared to be several miles in length, when In fact 1t occupied only about half a city i block.
 With the made-to- order desert under d double battery of the most powerful studio lights. the princi- | pals appeared in a series of close ups while enough camels were rounded up to start filming scenes out on the real desert,

Excavations Disclose
 Old Filipino Culture

Manila, P. l., May q OP - Dis coveries showing the customs and culture of the Filipinos of 700 years ago have been made in the eXcava- tions for the Novaliches Dam. They include old bits Of pottery of curi- ous design. weapons, beads, bits ot opal. old gold. jade, agate ana glazed utensils.
 Prof. II. O. Boyer, ethnoloEist anl anthropoligist of the University ot the Philippines, said that the theory that the Filipinos in pre-Spanisl times had a high degree Of culture was again confirmed by the dis Coveries.
