Peter is hard man, and he wouldn't

Edgar couldn't know how hard 1t
would be for her to go to Peter-hls
concern could only be because ne
realized how highly she priced the heir
loom. 1t was this very thoughtfulness,
SO unusual in her dear boy, that had
decided Mary to get him the money he
needed for his latest opportunity"
Perhaps he had changed, at last.
In all the world there was only Peter
to whom she could go in her need.
Only Peterl How significant that term
had been a few years ago when Peter
had asked to marry her; when she
had refused because her mother had
better plans for her-Wouldn't hear of
her marrying a poor man. Only

A S SHE entered the huge edifice
that housed the great man, Mary's
nerve almost failed her. Only the
realiza ton that Edgar needed her help
carried her to the outer door of the
suite Here, her hand on the knob,
she paused Peter was no longer tho
gentle lad from the wrong side Of the
tracks. Perhaps he would be rude to
her-he had a perfect right to say
anything he chose. No, Peter had
been a natural gentleman. Through
all the long years she remembered
him as such He could not change his
nature
The girl at the desk was address
ing her-"Did you have an appoint
ment madame"
Yes" Mary heard her own voice,
strangely tremulous, Mrs. Grey"
A second later Mary was shown
into one of the most beautiful rooms
she had ever seen, and a white-haired
man advanced to meet her with out
stretched hand
Come in. Mary. How are you?"
Hello, Peter" was all she could
say.
You will wait outside, Brown"
Peter dismissed the young man who

RAIL QUIZ TO BE CoNTINUED;
 FUND IS VOTED
|$l5O,O Is Set Aside for Senate Committee to
 Keep on Studying

WASHINGTON, March 24. = The Senate has set aside $150,000 to complete its investigation of rail- way finance, which already has pro- duced tentative recommendations for abolition, or federal control of super holding companies" in the transportation field.
 The appropriation is one of the largest ever made for a congress sional inquiry. It was approved without debate few minutes be- fore Chairman Wheeler, Democrat, Montana, of the Investigating com- mittee submitted his preliminary report.
 Although the report emphasized the rangers" of unregulated hold ing companies, it urged more care- ful study before congress adopts 8 clearly defined policy.
 Wheeler said his comm tt e e. 1. which already has spent $l00,000, could keep going for about ten months with the new funds.
 Hearings will be resumed early in April, he said. when a group of New York financiers. probably in cluding J. P. Morgan and Company partners, will be called. They will be asked to describe their part in financing the hold ing companies through which the late Van Sweringen brothers con- trolled Americas greatest railway emnire

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 24.-Investigators of the Dis trict Attorneys office today disclosed maniacal extortion notes against the family of David o. Selznick and Anna May Wong, Chinese actress.
 Miss Wong received one note threatening to disfigure or cripple her unless she ad- vanced $2O, 900 for the financ- ing of a motion picture.
 One letter to Mrs. Selznick demanded $20,000 or harm would come to her young son and also to her father.
 The Federal Bureau of Investiga- ton has not yet been called into the two cases but probably will be asked to give assistance to the in- vestigators of the District Attorneys office.

NEUTRALITY MEASURE IS
 NOT SEVERE
President Given Limited Power to Make Much
 of Any Embargo

WASHINGTON, March 24.-Let's get straight on the main provisions of this neutrality bill passed by the Senate.
 Within 8 week we have read a half dozen excited dispatches and special articles saying that the bill gives the President the right, in time of foreign war. to embargo anything from hairpins to fuel oil.
 The fact is, the President is not given power in the bill to embargo anything except arms, ammunition and implements of war. and it is definitely understood that this does not include copper, steel, fuel oil, or hairpins.
 CASH AND CARRY
 There is provision that no car go of anything. hairpins or air plane gasoline, can be shipped from the United States to a beiligerent nation until it has been paid for and title transferred to the bellig- erent. That is the socalled cash and carry" provision.
 In connection with that comes the section that causes most con- fusion. Any time the President finds it unsafe for an American ship to carry certain commodities to bel- ligerents, he may prohibit them be- ing carried on American ships. But that is not an embargo. Ships of the belligerents may come to the United States and buy what they want. They simply must carry it home in their own ships.
 That provision is intended to permit the President to prohibit American ships from carrying con- traband: In time of war. fuel oil. steel. copper and whatnot, perhaps even hairpins, are branded by bel- lgerents as contraband.
 SECRET MARK
 Another section of the bill denies American merchant marine vessels the right to arm. They armed in the last war before the United States officially entered. The result was that many German submarine commanders would not be foolish {. enough to come to the surface to search American ships for contra band. They found commanders of American ships were usually pro- ally and pretty. careless with fire arms. So they took to torpedoing without warning.
 Under Senator Pittman's plan American merchant vessels would not be armed. but might carry a secret marking known only to say, Germany. Thus German submar- inc could rise with safety to inspect an American merchant vessels car- go without risk. In the last war, before D. s. entry. it was favorite trick of allied merchant vessels to fly the American flag through the danger zones and then sink any sub marine fooled by the ruse.
 But experience in the last war raises a real question about wheth- CT this country. guided even by the Pittman bill. would be cool and im- partial enough to give, say. Ger many q secret code so its sub com- mander could tell an American ship from British. But that's the idea.

tics Of the process in relation TO future

generally by the petroleum refining
industry II is estimated that il would
increase by over 1000, 100000 gallons

sion's oil reserve.
s.GR1cKED" GASOLINE
Poiymefizafion is still in its infancy
but the cracking process. another tri-
umph of the research scientist, has al
ready been in general use long enough
to demonstrate both its potentialities
and its results. About rs years ago. al
though the fullest possible yield from
straight-run refining had been secured,
the demand for gasoline began to
mount rapidly, due TO the increasing
use of the automobile. In producing
gasoline by straight-run refin.-g, no
change in chemical composition is in
volved. The constituent products are
simply separated out OF the crude oil.
Cracked" gasoline is obtained by tax
ing the heavier constituents OF crude
oil obtained along with gasoline in
straight-run refining, and subjecting
them to high temperatures in specially
designed stills.

TO the solution of the problem Of how
to recover this 'irreeoverabIe" oil
The first necessity was to obtain
specimens of the petroleum bearing
sands, thousands Of feet below the sur
face. Only when the structure Of these
sands was definitely known would it
be possible to determine how they
might be forced 70 release their store
OF OIL Core drills were devised that
probed the subterranean sands and
brought up specimens to be analysed
in the laboratory According to the re-
suits of the analysis water, air or
natural gas was introduced under pres
sure. Reservoirs long give. up as ex-
hausted began to produce oil again.
Nobody knows just how much petro-
leum that would otherwise have re-
NAMED in the ground and forever IN
rsable has been recovered by such
secondary recovery" methods. but the
Pennsylvania oil fields, the oldest in
the world, provide vivid example Of
what has been accomplished. For rs
years these Pennsylvania fields have
been producing high-grade oil, but a
quarter Of a century ago the old timers
were predicting the certain exhaus-
ton Of the fields in another rs or 80
years
Today, thanks largely to secondary
recovery methods. Pennsylvania has
boosted its annual oil production to
almost the 10000 ooo-barrel peak.
Where It once cost $500 to lift a
barrel OF oil to the surface the Job is
now being done for around IS cents
Millions Of dollars are being spent for
new machinery. The landscape is dot
ted with new drilling wells. One Of
the greatest upsurges of oil field ac-
tivity during the last half century has
grown out Of the reiuvenation process
born and bred in the science labora-
tory.

crude oil into oils that boil over a
wide range from very low to very
high. The gasoline, or th, lighter and
lower boiling material. is separated out
by subjecting It to much the same re-
fining process as the original straight
run refining.
Approximately s.5oo,ooo.ooo barrels
Of crude petroleum have been con-
served in the United States in the last
II years by using the cracking process
in the manufacture Of motor fuel. Had
ii not been for cracking it would have
been necessary TO run nearly 22,000.-
000, 900 barrels OF crude oil TO stills be-
tween January |. 1920, and December
81. 1886. to produce the more than
5000. .000. 900 barrels OF gasoline re-
auired. Use Of the cracking process
made it possible TO produce this
amount OF motor fuel from little
over $4,000, 100000 barrels OF crude.
The amount Of crude oil conserved by
the cracking process represents nearly
two-thirds of the currently estimated
reserve. Cracking has undoubtedly
been the greatest single contribution
to the conservation of our petroleum
supply.
REJupEN4TI0N OF OLD POOLS
The third outstanding contribution
TO petroleum conservation that seien-
fists have made lies in increasing the
percentage OF oil extracted from the
nations oil pools. and in producing a
second crop OF oil from pools pre-
viously considered exhausted. Under
the ordinary flowing and pumping
method of producing oil, a good part
of the oil in the underground reservoir
canno. be brought to the surface. The
oil obstinately clings TO the sands
which hold it, defying the most power

Baseball officials long have
puzzled over the problem of
poor attendance in St. Louis,
but SO far they have done
nothing about the fact that
the two Mound City clubs vir-
tually bar one-fourth of the
city's population from Sport
mans Park by discriminating
against the Negro At the
present time Negroes, who be-
come far more rabid fans than
the whites" if given half the
chance, are allowed only in
the bleachers However, by
being barred from the grand
stand the gates might just as
well be closed to them all
around, because nothing hui
man can survive the hell such
as only the St. Louis bleachers
can be under a broiling Sum-
The entire population of
St. Louis, according to the last
official census in 1880, was

proximately 100000 were,
Negroes Thus by slamming
the door to Negroes the St.

their city, as far as drawing
possibilities are concerned, to
a population of 5S1, 800.
And that ranks it along with
such cities as Milwaukee,
which numbers 57S,249, and
Buffalo, which totaled $751;
