KING To SPEED
RUM HEARING

Hearings on Washington's liquor
control measure, to be held before
the District Commissioners within
the next week. probably will
shorten the hearings which the
Senate District Committee will
hold on the measure.
This was the suggestion ad.
vanced today by Senator William
H. King, chairman of the Senate
District group, who said he hopes
to get the hearings by his COM
mittee under way some time this
month.
There will be some witnesses
scheduled to appear before the
Senate group who will not offer
their views to the Commissioners
Chairman King anticipates, but,
he added, many of those who
would have desired to appear be-
fore his committee will let their
testimony before the Commission
ers stand.
The date when he will call his
committee together to start hear
ings on the liquor bill depends
largely on the time when the
Commissioners hearing ends, he
said.
Chairman Mary T. Norton of
the House District Committee has
announced that. to expedite pass
age Of the bill by the House, she
plans to hold no hearings on the
measure.

To the telephone operator who
handles the personal calls of Post
master General James A. Farley,
Big Jim" is just a kind but burly
voice that receives and makes hun
dreds Of telephone calls daily.
And probably if anyone in Wash
ington knows as much about the
temperament of the patronage
chief as his wife, it is this opera
tor, Miss Dulcie Mitchell.
Veteran in Service
Miss Mitchell entered the service
in 1915 under Postmaster General
Albert s. Burleson, and has served
as personal operator for Will
Hays, Hubert Work, Harry S.
New and Walter F. Brown dur
ing their terms Of office. She is
loath to comment on her favorite
boss" but does admit:
"Mr. Farley is awfully nice,
and never gets mad about any
thing. That is, anything per.
tanning to his phone Service.''
Then, deftly knocking on the
wooden panel Of her "desk" in the
switchboard room at the Post Of
flee Department, she added:
II have never been bawled
cut by any one Of them. They
were all nice"
The nearest she ever came to
a falling out with a Postmaster
General. she said, was during the
term of Will Hays in 1921. On
that occasion, Hays placed 81
long-distance calls at once and
when they were not answered i'm
mediately, he "just raised the
devil" she said, adding:
"But in general, everyone was
always very cOnSiderate, espe-
cially Mr.. New and Mr.. Farley"
The most trying moments Of
her day came, she said, when sew
eral Senators, Representatives and
maybe even the President, are

YEARS. BUS TAX
PUT At S858

While there was a slight de.
crease in the number of common
carrier buses in use during 1882,
taxes paid per bus continued to
climb, according to the National
Association of Motor Bus Opera
tors.
Latest figures for the full year
show the total tax paid per bus
reached new high figure Of
$858.89. In the preceding year,
the figure stood at $807.07, and
in 1925 it was only $335.54. In
cluding buses in city service,
there were approximately $4,000
in use as common carriers last
year.
In general taxes each bus paid
1922 last year. Such taxes are
paid to general funds regardless
Of motor vehicle ownership fees.
Special taxes, paid because of
motor vehicle ownership and for
highway use, were $766.67 last
year.

SEEN
SOON FOR OIL

Six months from now the
United States will face a shortage
of cheap crude oil, rather than
the over-supply that is being
talked Of today, according to the
T. S. Hose weekly review Of the
petroleum situation, which asserts
that within 80 days SO per cent
of the producing properties in
the east Texas field will have
"blown off" their gas pressure
and will require pumping equip
ment.
Many of the operators there
will be unable to meet the ad-
ditional expense required for this
equipment, it adds, and the result
will be that the properties will
pass into stronger hands who are
more interested in maintaining
the supply Of oil under ground.
In forecasting a shortage of
crude, says the review, it is not
intended to infer that the end of
petroleum reserves is in sight, but
to point out that the legitimate
operating companies will never
abandon proration for purely en-
gineering reasons. Additional
production other than east Texas
will be under restricted flow, so
that pressure may be maintained
over the longest possible period
Of time.
; Under most oil pools it is be-
lieved there are deeper producing
horizons, but to tap these deeper
reserves more expensive drilling
and lifting costs are entailed, and
a higher price for crude must re-
