someone else In that position.
Whether II is fair or not TO re
strict production ana not exercise
any control over prorating refinery
distribution is a subject on which
/ II may be assumed the Dominion
controller should have something "a
say.
It is evident that this whole stu
alton Is the result OF someone's
blunder-or some darn clever mani
Dulating.
In the full year OF 1910 more
oil could have been supplied from
Turner Valley than consumers
could possible use. But Il was In
sisted that production be limited to
immediate demand. There was no
accommodation provided for build
ing up OF reserves. Whether the
field can produce $4,000 Dbl. a
day or $4,000 Dbl. il still remains
a fact that at the end of December
last Il was held to $4,000 Dbl:
in March It was $4,000 Dbl. and as
late as May Il was only $4,000 Dbl.
It is now apparent that with
storage we could have produced at
a steady figure. probably around
10000 Dbl a day and been assured
OF a clearance in the peak demand
season.
Surely this amount Of foresight
could be expected from the authori-
ties in control OF the field Some
operators were prepared with a COM
pleted plan to this end months ago.
but because they lacked the author
ity they were unable to do more
than make the suggestion.
There are those who are asking
why the ACB did not compel the
Valley Pipe Line Co. an Imperial
to provide storage In
for the summer peak?
The ACB. It is argued. knew all
about the declining curves at the
wells. had or should have had
of the growing demand.
but took no action to avoid the in
result.
One wonders what the BIAS
position will be with big refineries
IT Moose Jaw and Calgary and no
big wells of its own?
OF course there Is feeling
lmong some that they could have
lone a great deal more In the way
If development.
But the question remains=who |
s to decide what amount OF crude
Ill this company and other indepen-
Tents are TO be supplied Are the |
leeds OF one particular company to |
lave preference. or will some
decide keeping in mind |
he ultimate good of the industry.
The present difficulty can be 4
'vercome within a short time when l
lew wells come in and the gasoline
ales decline. but in the interval |
wrong may be done to /
he industry unless someone clamps
own with a strong hand
Another development that will /
likely arise out OF the present I'M
leasant situation is that some OF !
he companies who hold large /
ceage, have money in their treas
ry. and are doing very little devel-
pment, will be forced to get busy
n drilling campaign.
Notwithstanding the present mix
p Alberta can still be put in the
osition where she can supply the
eeds of aviation, on the large
Gale that will be required.

Women find ideas for new Golf
lures everywhere. This one, worn
by Judy Thornton, New York
model. was inspired by Wendell
Willkie, the republican standard
bearer. The "WilIkie Bob" as, it
is called, features a lock of hair

groups;' drew up manifestos &C
cusing the procession politicians
of traitorism.
Speakers cried out particularly
at Italy, attaching to her the great
er blame for selling our Ruman-
ia"
Rumanian officials, saying the
coded territory included homes of
1000, 900 Rumanians. 1000, 900 Hun
garians, 100, 900 Jews and 100, 90
Germans, hurried on with t h e i r
plans to hand over the area within
two weeks-the deadline set.
German minorities celebrated.
The newspaper Tageblatt declared
national socialism, in southeastern
Europe.
Nazi Party Planned
In Hungary the German minority
officially estimated at half a mil
lion-was expected to form now an
authorized Nazi party.
AS one of the prices demanded
by Germany for the return of
northern Pennsylvania, Hungary
will permit Germans to organize
freely lin expressing their national
convictions"
The most likely scene of a SER
ious outbreak against Rumania's
involuntary surrender of northern
Pennsylvania appeared to be in
Cluj, the capital and major city
of the province. Rumanian pea
SAINTS flocked there in angry thou
sands, demonstrating constantly.
Oddly, some of the most violent
protests against the Hungarians
came from Germans themselves in
Pennsylvania. Many Germans in
that area, despite their Nazi ties,
always had quarreled with the
Hungarians living there.
In the Nasaud district Hungarian
homes were attacked by shouting
Germans. Many persons were in
jured and German crowds stormed
through the streets crying out:
Down with the Diktat (dictate)!
We refuse to return to Hungary"
Local authorities watched silent
ly while Hungarians yer mauled.4

BERLIN DECLARES
END IS NEAR
Continued from Page One)

British planes and SO barrage bal
looms had been destroyed, not in
Guiding today's operations.
The commentators professed scorn
for the Childish optimis' with which
they said, the British are declaring
that the worst is over. England,
they insisted, doesn't yet know what
modern war can be like.
One newspaper, the Frankfurter
Zeitung, explained: "Catastrophes
often develop slowly"
Adolf Hitler flung his bombers
against London and nearby air bases
in one of the most determined as
saults yet of the Battle for Britain
today - an immediate retort to the
first British air raid of this year-old
war on the heart of Berlin.
Tonight, German authorities de-
clared 124 British planes had been
destroyed during the day, including
20 smashed on the ground, and that
IA English barrage balloons had been
shot down. The loss of % German
planes vas acknowledged.
Most of the heaviest fighting was
reported north of London. Over the
British capital itself the Germans
said they encountered no anti-air-
craft resistance whatever.
(The British reported 3S German
attackers downed to 16 British
losses.)
Nazi informants said at least II of
the British craft were shot down in
air battles over Hartford county,
north of London, alone. Additional
"surprise" attacks were said to have
set aflame hangers and barracks of
Raj airdromes in southeastern Eng
land.
The fights developed as a sequel
to a night of heavy raids on London,
portfacilities, armament works in
central England and oil tanks and
docks at the mouth of the Thames
Estuary, waterway to London.
The nazi high command minimized
effects of the British raid on Berlin,
in which high explosive and incen-
diary bombs were rained on the Ger
man capital during an. hour and 81
minutes alarm that kept the city's
population clinging to air raid
shelters.
Nevertheless several apartment
houses and business buildings were
wrecked, the big Siemens Schuckert
Electrical Equipment Factory dam
aged and scattered fires started in
the southeastern section of the city.
One bomb fell in the courtyard OF
the Linden street fire department
HEADQUARTERS. (This is only four
blocks east of the Wilhelmstrasse,
on which the Reichschancellery, the
foreign office and other important
government buildings r located.)
