BIG GAINS SHOWN
BY NATURAL GAS
Outlook Favors Continued
Growth Despite Present
Business luIl.
Srecial Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, May 7.-Persistent
growth has been the outstanding char
acteristic Of the natural gas industry
according to Poor's Industry and In
vestment Surveys. The 1929-32 de-
preston proved to be only temporary
check, and new records have been es-
tablished since 1884.
Despite extension of the current in
dustrial recession. the outlook favors
continued growth" continues the sur
vey. THE reasons are:
"O Vast new sources of supply.
with long-lived reserves, have been de-
veloped in the Southwest and In Cali
fornia within the last decade, allaying
fears as to the industry's life.
"(2) Extensive new pipeline trans
portation systems have been built to
carry this gas to the large population
centers, notably those of the Middle
West and Great Lakes regions. This
has opened immense new markets for
future exploitation.
"(O Natural gas is clean and has
higher heat value than manufac-
tured gas. Moreover, it can be sue
cessfully mixed with manufactured gas
to make an even better product.
80 In most localities natural gas is
cheaper, 50 that it can compete sue
cessfully with coal and oil as industrial
fuel.
"t5) Large gas utility companies Al
ready operating in industrial centers
have found it desirable to take over
the distribution of natural gas, which
has generally made 1t unnecessary to
duplicate sales and administration
facilities.
In the years ahead basic character
istics stimulating further growth
should enable the natural gas industry
to surmount its rate. tax and expense
problems. Owing to the relatively
heavy domestic lead, declining indus
trial activity is not particularly
threatening. but sales and, to an even
greater degree, earnings will continue
to f1uctuate with prevailing weather
conditions. The latter factor, of course,
serves to heighten the speculative
character Of natural gas equities"

NOT ENOUGH TO BE GOOD. D..
YOU MUST BE GOOD FOR
SOMETHING" Any stupid,
lazy, cowardly heel can LOOK
good, but it takes gobs of gump-
ton to be actually righteous.
Examine the record of all Real
Saints and you'll find plenty
of spiritual brass-knuckles.
The Wicked flourish, not be-
cause God has a sneaking liking
for them, but because they are
Go-Getters. Life needs Co
Getters and rewards them.
Man was created to be the
greatest go-getter of all. He
was intended to think definitely,
plan positively, act vigorously.
And, it is both strange and sad,
but the Wicked frequently full
fill this admonition far better
than the Cody. In their warped
and wanton way, such 16-cylin-
der Sinners come nearer to
obeying the Law of Life than
the sanctimonious Do-Nothings.
They will undoubtedly Get
Theirs, some day, but at pres
ent they're apt to be making
IL per cent on most invest
ments.
FAITH and FORCE these
qualities lie behind all achieve
ment. They are psychic dyna-
mite, and they work as ener-
getically for the Sinner as the
Saint. If Good People had a
tenth as much faith in them
selves and their principles as
the Bad People have, we'd have
Paradise pronto. But again the
Sinner monopolizes the fire
works and leaves the Saint to
his Psalms and self-pity.
God doesn't desert the Right
eous. They desert themselves
and Him. God has given the
good exactly the same makings
for an abundant life which He
has given the wicked-but the
wicked use their makings and
the good don't. They, all too
often, go on relief instead.
The Washington times., 1938-02-08

That seems to us to be running isolatlonlsm into
the ground Surely it is wiser for us to team up IN
such maneuver with the nation having the worlds
greatest navy than to 60 it alone Japan isn't facing
US alone Japan is openly allied with two warlike ma
tions Germany and Italy. Italy has already shown
its warmindedness by waging war in Ethiopia and
Spain Germany has huge army and a growing navy,
both Of which are champing at the bit.
And those pointed inquiries to what Japan is

Entirely proper nation. Then Japan checked out
of the agreement and has been silent the subject
ever since-silent while rumors have buzzed about
43000on battleships carrying 18inch guns, building

The rest of us naval powers can't take chances on
being surprised some June morning by the unveilng
of set of Japanese batteshps able to shoot farther
and hit harder than any of battleships. If Japan
is going in for bigger battleships, We'll take the dare
at our peril The only sensible thing for US to do is
to try to find out just what Japan does pan to point
out to Japan that Just good fight be had with
presentday ships and then to Japan IN any ndl-
Gated naval race if japan insists going ahead with
bigger ships.
We think the Administration is taking the proper
steps in this difficult and dangerous matter, and we
think the Congressional objectors i'll advised.
AS for the Japanese naval and military bosses, we
think they would be wise to give the information asked

MATE, the happier she'll be.
The days of the mollusc, the

The woman who is not willing
to face poverty and hard work
with a man these days, is not
the wife for THAT man. The

flee some of his bachelor lux

to marry a woman, is not the

There is not enough LOVE in
their mutual bank account for
them to marry on. They will
always be love-paupers.

each other, to bear poverty to-
gether, than it is to bear it
alone. If you miss the Spring
time of life together, you are
missing something that can
never be recaptured.

Super-Highway Good Idea

President Roosevelt is reported friendly to the pro-
posa Of Senator Robert J. Bulkley Dem. Ohio) for
an $8O000O0,000 system of transcontinental super
highways to be paid for out of tolls.
We don't see why shouldn't get at least good
start national super-highway setup out of the
recession (Bulkley puts the plan forward chiefly as
an unemployment relief measure). It has been dem
onstraed in New York by the Triboro Bridge, George
Washington Bridge, Henry Hudson Parkway, Holland
and Lincoln Tunnels ETC., etc.. that people glad to
pay reasonable tolls for of fast motor road with
out distractions.
We hope the engineers, when and if Bukley's bill
reaches the blueprint stage will plan the superhigh
ways to go around instead Of through towns, with con-
Meeting spurs to them, and to be plentfuy provided
with overpasses and underpasses instead of grade
crossings.
