Pioneering in Oil Industry

IL Is probable that The de- elopnent of no industry
required more courage and perseverance than oil
Fifty years ago as hundreds Of uses which are COM
monplace today were net ez7n dreamed Of. The OIL
business which was started before the Civil War did
not really get under way in the United States until
some years after that conflict. It's chief use At that
time wss to light kerosene lights. Fifty years ago in
the face 81 opposition and encouragement construc-
tion was started on the first oil pipe line ever attempt
Cd in America, by the Tide Water Pipe Company. Ltd.
This line has funciioned continuously ever since and
has pumped over 1~55.oooooo barrels of crude to the
seaboard from Pennsylvania ard mid-continental
fields.
AAtell ,. Bylcs. president ~ the Tide Water Asso-
eisted Oil Company. in an address on the fiftieth an
riverssry Of the opening q this first pire linee, said
in part:
The oil industry may nov face the future vith
complete confidence in the ability Of operators end en-
sineers to make steady progress in the improvement IF
mechanical devices and processes. It's major and more
difficult problem is that Of stabilization-the replace
msnt Of reckleFes and unseconomic competition, dupli-
cation Of facilities and uncontrolled production of an
irreplaceable and indispensable raw material.
"Progrsss along these lines has been made and will
eontinuee. What has been accomplished in the way Of
sterilization j. very little indeed toward what must yet
be accomplished If the industry is to realizee its full
possibilities Of permanent service to investors Of cap
itsl and labor and to the public itself"
In commenting on this pioneer oil pipe line r. the
Tide Water oil company, Ltd, which lifted oil over
the Allerheney mountains when skeptics said il could
not be done. Mr.. Byles concluded his remarks by say
ing;
"The reduction ~ transportation rates which result
ed from the success Of this undertaking was prophetic
OF the progress which VAS to bc made IN sl branches
Of the oil industry during the ensuing fifty years"
Al no time in the history Of the world has thee sup
ply If gasoline and fuel oil been 80 plentiful as at
present nor on a basis Of production which assured
such permanent future supplies free from violent price
and quantity fluctuations. For this reason fuel oil is
a product n ever increasing Importance due r. Is
rapid adoption in homes and industrial plants for heat
ing purpose.

ITALY CUTS OFF INCOME
dallas Newsl.

Mussolini holly resents the suggestion that Italy
must send its sons abroad or see them starye at home
He rules emigration, therefore. with a repressive hand.
It is now estimated that fewer than $4,000 Italians will
have left the mother country during 1928. This IL a
reduction of more than so per cent from 1927 figures.
A the emigration figures come down, 50 do savings
deposits in Italy come down. In 1925, the Christian
Science Monitors correspondent nj Rome finds. Italian
emigrants held postal savings deposits in Italy TO the
amount Of 100000 900 lire. In 1926 the sum 50 held
was 500. GOO. 600 lire. Last year the deposits n this
character had fallen iso.0oo.Ooa lire.

ian emigrsnts have drawn out 25soOo.oOo lire more
than they have deposited. Thus the Italian balance n
trade is seriously affected by the nev policy.

Team Confident Of Turning Back
Falcons in Second Game

1t will be doubly confident Bur-
rift baseball team that will face the
Falcons next Sunday at st. Mary's
held in the second game of the Sc
RES between the two in the elimin-
alton race for the city baseball
cham pionship. Any doubt that
might have existed in the minds of
the hackers of the team or of the
Falcon supporters. for that matter,
That the Burritts were not in class
with the Falcons. was dispelled last
Sunday when the Burritt crew, play
ing a championship brand of base
ball, conquered the Falcons, 3 to 2
in II innings.
Manager John Cabay has ascrib
ed the defeat of his team, to over
confidence which resulted in poor
base running. He points out that
in the early innings and even in the
late innings, several mistakes were
made through carelessness which. if
eliminated. might have caused the
game to result differently.
Play Stanley Works
The Falcons are facing two hard
games on Saturday and Sunday. On
Saturday. the team will meet the
Stanley Works team. pennant win
her of the Industrial league. This
game will show Just how strong the
Industrial league teams are in conf

The Stanley Works will throw in
its best lineup with Walter Scott in
the pitchers box. Jack Schroeder
will catch. Parsons. Merline. Green
and Abramowicz will form the out
field with Charlow. Snyder and
Wendrosl,i in the outfield.
The Falcons will have either
Lefty" Atwood or Nichols in the
box. Atwood will be back with the
team and either man will receive
the pitching assignment. The one
who doesn't pitch Saturday will face
the Burritts Sunday.
Hundreds of tickets are being sold

ter arc waxing hotter each day.

RANGERS HOPEFUL
Of ANOTHER WIN
Locals Have Edge Over kensing.
ton After Last Sunday

The Rangers are hopeful of taking
the second and deciding game OF the
series with Kensington next Sunday
afternoon. In a wonderful battle
last Sunday afternoon. the Hangers
defeated the kensington team caus-
ing one OF the biggest upsets OF the
present season.
Chagrined at the defeat, the Ken
sington crew is out for revenge.
Coming in this week will be the final
chance of the kansington team to
stay in the running for the city
championship. The series as ar
ranged is for the best two out OF
three games and with one victory
under its belt the Rangers team is
anxious to make it two straight.
The Kensington club has mace
all preparations for the invasion.
The team has been lectured in good
shape and every player on the
squad is fit and ready, Mistakes of
last week are likely not to occur
again and plenty of fight will be
found in the squad when the two
teams face each other for the Sec
ond time.
The Rangers will put in several
practice sessions this week in pre-
paration for the game. No oppor-
tunity will be allowed to slip by to
put the team in the forefront in the
race for city baseball honors. The
Rangers have lost one game to the
Falcons but two more chances will
be offered to them if they can come
through.
kensington will play two games
over the weekend. the first in
Windsor Locks on Saturday after
noon and the second against the
rangers at home. The game Satur-
day will practically wind up Ken
sington's play in the Connecticut
state league.
Sundays game will start prompt
ly at 3 o'clock with Lynch. McKeon
and Paul umpirihg. The Rangers
will be the home club.
