CARL C. FISHER MUCH
PLEASED WITH HIGH
GRADE OF OIL Or
TANNED AT THIS PORT


The oil tank steamer Louisiana,
Captain Peterson, arrived in port
last evening. from Port Arthur,
Texas, with load of fuel oil,
consisting of $4,000 barrels. Six
thousand barrels of regular fuel
oil was discharged at this port for
the Texas Oil Company. while 81
600 barrels Of Paraffine gas oil
was also discharged at this port,
consigned to the Texas Com
pany.
In an interview with repre-
sentative of The. Citizen last
evening, L. G. Pease. manager of
the petroleum company. at this
port, stated that Key West is one
of the few ports that handles this
fine grade of Diesel oil, which fact
has been the means Of bringing
a large number of yachts and
other craft here for the purpose
Of fueling.
Carl G. Fisher, owner of the
magnificent and commodious
yacht. Shadow ", arrived at this
port just few days ago for the
purpose of obtaining a supply of
the Paraffine product, and has
since expressed himself as being
very much satisfied with the ex-
cellent quality Of petroleum being
used ct this time in the operation
of this palatial craft.
The Louisiana was heavily load
ed on arriving at this port, hav-
ing a draft of % feet aft, and was
brought up to the Porter Dock
Company's wharf where the
ships cargo was pumped through
the pipes into the immense tanks
of the Texas Company in the
steamship company's yards.
There are now $4,000 barrels
of oil in storage in the several
tanks, and it is expected that an
other steamer viii be here IN the
near future with another load of
oil to be discharged into the other
tanks.
Since the erection Of the oil
tanks at Key West there have
been numerous vessels calling at
this port for fuel supplies which
has been the result Of helping the
city generally inasmach as pro-
visions and other needed articles
are purchased during the stay Of
the ships here aside from the
revenue that enters the business
channels with money circulated
on every hand as , result Of the
expenditures made b the off
cels and crew from the VARIOUS
vessels calling al this port

GENEVA, March 10.-There
was optimism today among dele
gates to the meeting of the
League of Nations because Of in
dications that the controversy
over seats in the council would be
settled. Pending the return of

continued in an effort to placate
the disputants.
It was confidently predicted
among the numerous delegations
that the temperance Of Nj.
BRAND, after forming a new
cabinet at Paris, would be follow
ed shortly by a ringing down of
the curtain on the German drama
and the entrance of the Reisch
into the league.
The rank and file of members
of the league have been COM
| planning that the question Of the
election of Germany to member
ship, for which they were
primarily convoked, is being too
long deferred.
Some of the smaller countries
are beginning to protest the ad-
journment of the assembly Of the
league without . new day Of
meeting having been fixed. They
complain also that the big powers
are retarding the machinery Of
the league.
The big powers are anxious 10

The development of Florida is
being built around her remarkable

escape cold weather and enjoy
out-of door sports are flocking
there in great numbers. The edu-

There is already remarkable

PLEASURE PLIERS NOT INCLUDED
Only Interstate Planes Must
 Have Markers

New Haven, Nov. CP-Airplanes which engage in interstate or foreign commerce only will be required to be tagged and numbered like auto mobiles, United States Senator Hiram Bingham, who had much to do with molding the new federal aviation law into shape. said today:
 Aviators who fly for pleasure or sport will not be required to take out registration numbers under the new law, the senator said. nor will the law have any jurisdiction over flying within the state. The house desired that the proposed federal law, should take the place of any state laws which were in force. but the senate insisted, Senator Bingham says, that should have entire control of avia- tion within their own borders and under their own laws if such existed.
 Senator Bingham said he was par- ticuIarly interested in this feature of the bill because Connecticut has one of the best, if not the best aviation law in the country; and accidents are fewest here because of the care ex- ercised by the aviation inspectors.
 The federal law does not interfere with experimental flying. Senator Bingham saying that when the draft of the law was under consideration pilots who were aiding in develop ment of aviation were greatly per turbed lest their experiments be cur tailed by restNctions. The federal law as it stands does not interfere with aviators who commute provided they do not carry passenger or freight or engage in any way in commercial business between the states.
