The governor in an address last
night unhesitatingly said that if he
were tobacco grower he would vote
for control, but the whole reasoning
is contained in this paragraph from
the talk:
''Now what will happen if control
is not voted? That is an important
question both for your present to-
bacco crop and also for next year If
control is not voted, the government
will not provide. the money to fin

No Labor Gears.
The wages in Japan are exceed
ingly low but the people seem hap
py with them. The factory wages
are said to average yen, plus dor
mitory quarters and simple food,
! for a day of ten hours. Unskilled
labor in the towns (the labor that
makes most Of the stuff imported
into the United States) gets perhaps
only one-half yen for a tWelve-hour
day; while skilled labor in the cities
rnay get one-and-a-half or two yen
for eight hours In Japan there is
no interfering with efficiency meth
ods by labor leaders. Although ia
pan is in sore need of collective bar

! employers being able to reward eff
fort and TO discourage indifference
Theoretically, the yen is pegged
around 25 cents. For practical pur-
poses, however, III many cases busi-
ness or exchange can be done on
the basis of Is cents per yen. In
free market and in unlimited
quantities, you are very lucky to
get an American dollars for six or
seven yen. One thing is certain. In
flation is gradually becoming a
serious factor. Just now it goes un-
noticed by the people in Japan be
cause they are forbidden to take
more than 200 yen in or out Of the
country. Moreover, those selling in
foreign markets are reaping a tenn

fering great hardships.
Initiation Creeping Up.
Certainly, the Japanese soldiers
in China are learning a lesson in
economics. They are paid in yen
which they are told are worth Is
cents or more in gold. If they keep
the yen until they get back tc
Japan, they get on fairly we'll al

There are many things which are

There is a great contrast between

And so, last year. when the ugly

Nancy Kelly planned ii. She was
stage-struck. She wanted to become
great actress on Broadway. She made
a good start, too. John Golden was
casting Rachel Crothers' play Susan
and God, in which Gertrude Lawrence
starred. Nancy tried out for the part
of Blossom. the daughter, and got it..
The play had good reviews. Nancy
was jubilant But before the play had

every movie studio on the West Coast.
Nancy did not want to sign up.

Yes, you've guessed it Nancy
was a child star. But her story is the
exception to the usual rule of fame

Nancy was Nan Kelly's child, the
frst-born of her four children, for
whom she dreamed the dramatic
achievements she never had herself.
So Nan took her four-year old daugh-

Nancy became a professional child
actress - factor number two in her

There are some men who just don't
believe in oil'' and frequently they are
the ones who have oil. It is hard to
say which is the more pitiful: the man
who has it and won't believe in it or the
man who refuses to accept it when he
might easily get some. 1t is a sin of
omission in either instance-or that is
conclusion we reached just this week,
in this manner:
We had occasion to check up on earn
ings on the William Howling farm in
Keyin-Sunburst field and were reminded
that "Bill" Howling, a section hand.
is the outstanding example lof 'oil dis
believers" in Montana. Howlfng regard
ed the early pioneers of the Kevin oil
industry as a bunch of promoters who
were merely taking leases for the pur-
pose of Fleeing the public and he was
certain in his own mind that there was
no oil in that area. Was 1t not 800
miles to Cat Creek, the nearest oil field?
He reasoned that If there were oil any
where, it would be found closer to Cat
Greek than Kevin.
The result of this reasoning was that
he was unwilling to participate in any
thing He finally did sign a lease in
return for a small bonus, but expressed
his disbelief in such terms that he al
most forced the oil men to buy his roy
atty. One of our early associates was
called into the argument and he calmly
offered Howling $3.50 for his royalty.
Howling promptly accepted it, royalty
deed was prepared and he signed it,
What he did with the $3.50 we never
learned, but he went back to his job on
the railroad, pleased with the idea that
he had gotten the better of the deal
We saw the completion ON this farm
of the famous Dawson-Merkle well which
flowed 1t was taken over by the Mid
Northern Oil company which company was
subsequently merged into the Standard
OF Indiana. The lease was farmed out,
part of 1t going to Texas-Pacific Coal &
Oil Co and part to Carter on company.
Then came the drilling of the famous
million dollar Ohio-Baker No. which
drilled into 'fDreak" in the dime. Texas
Pacific drilled well on the Howling, not
for from the Baker No. which was the
nearest rival in daily production for many
years.
We find that the HOwling farm has
produced approximately 81 ,47O 900 worth
of oil and is still producing Howling's
