OIL FUEL DROUGHT

Strikers Attack Emergency
Trucks Guarded by Police.
Cold Snap Feared.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 11.-Having
just escaped a threatened shortage of
fresh fruits and vegetables because of
strike of truck drivers, New York
stoday faced possibility of a gasoline and
oil shortage as a result of a strike of
5000 oil truck drivers.
The strike, which started in Brooklyn
last Saturday. had spread today to
Manhattan, parts Of Queens, Nassau
County and other sections of Long
Island. Despite the efforts of the nine
companies involved to deliver the gaso-
line and oil by emergency crews, many
filling stations reported their supplies
were exhausted.
City Faces Shortage.
Oficials of the fire department and
the department of hospitals were de-
vising plans to replenish the fuel sup
plies at the city buildings should the
strike be prolonged.
At Bellevue Hospital, where the sup
ply of gasoline was down to less than
enc days requirement a special tank
wagon under an escort of motor cycle
police delivered 900 gallons, sufficient
for nine days.
Should sudden cold snap develop 1t
was feared many apartment houses and
hotels equipped with oil burning fur
naces would be affected.
Strikers Attack Trucks.
Despite police and private guards on
trucks manned by emergency crews,
seven trucks were attacked by strikers.

HOW TO KEEP WELL
Educational


to body heat as by the applications
of warm hand and very gentle fric-
ton. After circulation has been restor-
ed, the part must be kept warm and
dry. 1t should be wrapped in cotton
or wool, loosely bandaged and not
used. Greasy preparations should be
avoided. Dry dressings should be ap-
piled. Blisters should not be opened
except by physician.
CAS- soon as first aid has been rem
dered, frost bitten person should
have the attention of a competent
physician. Once the part becomes
gangrenous, surgical procedures are
essential.
Unfortunately a part once frost
bitten is rendered more liable to flu
ture attack. If you are one of those
who is susceptible to chilblains you
may be able to ward off this trouble
next year by starting preventive treat
ment in the fall before cold weather
sets in. The basis of this treatment
is to accustom the blood vessels to
sudden changes in temperature. It
consists in bathing the parts alter
nately in cold water and in water as
hot as can be borne for fifteen min
utes each day. The treatment should
be continued for several weeks Do
this next year and you will probably
pass through the winter much more
comfortably.

BIG SAVING SEEN
IN SHORTER ROADS.

When highway carries 1000 cars
day, or 365,O0O tons of traffic in a
year, each foot of distance saved will
justify an expenditure of at least $50
for road shortening, according to T. R.
Agg, professor of economics at the
Iowa State College. It would be
economy, according to Prof. Agg, to
spend $4,000 to shorten such a road
one mile. This is the saving through
the shorter distance alone, to say
nothing of the saving through the i'm
proved road surface.
1t is seldom, however, that it costs
very much to relocate and shorten a
road. The Minnesota Highway de-
partment has found that it often
costs less to buy new right-of-
and grade an entirely new short
route than to improve an old, partly
graded road which is somewhat long
er. This is especially true where the
road is to be paved Shortening the
distance mile between two points
will often save enough in paving to
pay for several miles of new grade
and right-of-way.
Where railroad grade crossings and
other hazards can be eliminated there
Is still further incentive to seek a
