NO OVERPRODUCTION IN U. {

AUSTIN-There is no overpro-
duction of oil in Texas or in the
nation, Commissioner Ernest Thomp-
son declared. Thompson cited fig
ures to show that for last 2 weeks
the Nation was slightly under the
Bureau of Mines estimate and Texas
only only 1900 bbls. over.
Average Texas daily production
last 2 weeks was 1,292,275 bbls. he
said, only 1900 bbls. over estimate.
Average national daily production
for same period was 3,526,673 bbls.
which is $4,000 bbls. under esti-
mate, he asserted.
Thompson declared that the next
two weeks will see Texas consider
ably under the Mines estimate.
There is no overproduction in
Texas today. The market is firm.
There is strong demand" Thompson
said.

Last year the demand for light
heating oils was so great that
refiners were unable to supply the
requirements, especially in the me
tropolitan districts. A recent report
of the Bureau of Mines shows a
sales gain of more than is per-
cent, compared with 1888. There
was a large increase in the num-
Der of oil burners in use in Mon
tana during 1899 and steady
market for light heating oils solv-
es one of the problems of Montana
refiners who used to accumulate
distillates during the winter months
for sale in the spring as tractor
fuel
Reaches Huge Total
The U. S. B. M. report shows
that consumption of light distil-
late heating oils in 1889 exceeded
4 ,00O,000,000 gallons; approximate
ly 2,05,O0O domestic oil burners
were in use at the end of the year.
In addition. the space heating of
large buildings and factories took
more than 1900, 100000 gallons of
heavy residual fuel oil, and the
operation of the millions of small
room heaters, range burners in
burners and stoves, and water
heaters consumed 1900, 900
gallons of range oil. Total consump-
tion of all these petroleum fuels
for heating amounted to 7,278,3O6,-
900 gallons, a quantity equivalent
to one-third of all the motor fuel
consumed in the United States last
year. This compared with $685.
100000 gallons of heating fuels
used in 1898, an increase of IA
per cent.

light heating oils were the gain in
the number of domestic oil burn
ers in operation and the pronounced
colder weather in 1899 compared
with 1888 Consumption of light
heating oil substantially is proper
tional to the weather, it has been
found. Other factors in the in
crease, the Bureau reports, were
the generally better conditions in
1899 and the continued low retail
cost of fuel oil, which showed lit
tie change from 1888.
Cities Use Most
Nearly S5 per cent of the heat
ing oil demand comes from three
populous sections of the country
New England. Middle Atlantic, and
North Central. New York state, the
largest single consumer, alone used
pit per cent of the total, far
more than any other state; Illinois
was second, followed by Massachu-
sets, New Jersey, and Pennsyl
vania. Range oil consumption is
even more concentrated, New Eng
land using 81 per cent of the 1899
demand, followed by Middle At
lantic with 1877 per cent.

Mobilization Day plan. Many citizens have
acquired an artificial terror of IN Day."
They think that on that day the military will
take the people" by the neck But what in
fact does the M Day plan say?
Ithas been expanded by the Army Industrial
College into document called Mobilization
of Industry" That document gives US the
whole attitude of our Army toward demo-
cratic institutions. Every citizen would profit
by reading it, 1t would make him know that
if there is any danger anywhere in this coun
try to democratic institutions, it is not in the
Army.
The three great principles laid down by the
Army's Mobilization of Industry" are SIM
pie and exact:
l. The Army should be ready on M Day
with finished plans for organizing our civilian
industrial wartime resources. But
2. The Army on M Day should hand these
plans over to purely civilian and nonbolitical
body to be called the War Resources Admins
tration; and this body of citizens should
operate the Governments wartime relations
with business and with labor without any
strings of command being pulled on it by the

Iron and Steel Institute and r. E. Woods of
Sears, Roebuck and Company. They also hear
lectures from eminent labor leaders like John
p. Frey of the metal trades and Matthew Woll
of the photo engravers Every year now the
acquaintance of our Army with our private
organized industry and with our private organ
lied labor becomes more and more intimate.
West Point Goes TO Harvard
ALSO every year now considerable number
of Army officers go and take course of
studies in the Harvard School of Business
Administration. If anybody had told me
twenty-five years ago that there would be, as
military people express it, ''liaison" between
the spirit of West Point and the spirit of
Harvard, would have laughed. Today that
'liaison" is firm and strong. West Pointers
attend classes at Harvard, and professors from
Harvard come to Washington and convey
their views to the military instructors and
students of the Army Industrial College in
the old Munitions Building The Army has
steady links now with American business
thought and with American business action.
The result is to be seen in the Armys

'(Q)hen ,Ve assumed the soldier. zoe did not
lay aside the citizen. - George Washington
0r IS often feared that if we resolutely
prepare ourselves for national defense, we
Z shall lose our Liberties and become
totalitarian country, 'militarized" country.
This problem has many angles. 1t has the
angle of the Congress. 1t has the angle of
the President. Congresses could try to drive
us into totalitarianism. Presidents could.
Presidents and Congresses could try to cover
our whole private economic life with per-
manent military control" But they would
not have the sympathy of the Army
This article deals with the question of
whether or not the Army wants to ''miitarize"
the business and the labor of the United
States The answer is a most emphatic no"
As far as the Army is concerned. its central
economic policy is to keep the business and
the labor of the country permanently free.
A very high Army officer remarked to me
the other day:
I'VE now have complete wartime plans. In
wartime there must be some controls of
money and of men. But what do our plans
provide? They provide, in the first place, that
all wartime controls of private business and
of private labor shall be operated not by
soldiers but by civilians; and they provide,
second, that as soon as peace is declared, all
those controls shall be disbanded. And why
not? don't Want to 60 off and win a war and
come back and find that haze lost my country"
That is the spirit that animates the Amer
lean Army to-day. 1t is spirit that has
grasped the ideal of American civilian life.
Twenty-Five years ago our Army was purely
military minded. Its efforts to extract NUM-
tons from our private economic system in
the First World War were necessarily very
imperfect Since that time there has been
mental revolution in Army military circles.
Our Army today is both military minded and
civilian-minded.
A high emblem of this revolution is the
Army Industrial College. 1t exists within the
office of the Assistant Secretary of War in
Washington. The Assistant Secretary of War
is charged by law with all buying of NUM-
tons. He is also charged by law with all
developing of plans for organizing the eco
nomic life of the country on and after
Mobilization Day during any war. The
Army Industrial College has been established
to train Army officers to help the Assistant
Secretary of War in the discharge of these
duties.
The officers who are studying in the Army
Industrial College hear lectures from eminent
private businessmen like Walter S. Clifford
OF the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company and w. S. Tower of the American

3. Every power given to the War Resources
Administration should be only for the period
of the war and should expire by law as soon as
the war is over.
Surely no other Army in the world has ever
made 50 sturdy contribution to the philosor
ply whereby country can prepare for war
and fight war and yet still preserve its
original and ultimate democratic faith.
will now review these three principles in
reverse order Each one of them is vital
Point for Vigilance
PRINCIPLE Three says that we should pass
no emergency wartime laws with any per-
manent provisions in them. The American
people should be vigilant on this point. During
the First World War we passed several laws
containing provisions that are still with US
We gave our government extraordinary war
time powers which it still exercises in time of
peace That sort of thing is menace to
democracy. We ought not to repeat it. We
ought to heed the Army. We ought to 60 along
with the Army's Mobilization of Industry"
which earnestly says that all wartime powers
should be exercised by special temporary
agencies with span of life limited strictly to
the war period
Principle Two says that these special
temporary agencies" should be in the hards
of civilians drawn from private life. This is a ,
safeguard both against political ambition and
against militaristic domination. Some excel
lent words on this point were spoken by the
recent Assistant Secretary of War. Colonel
Louis Johnson. He said:
I'VE propose that controls that affect
civilian life should be completely in the hands
of civilians Every Army officer knows that
military men are not qualified to take over
control of American life. He knows that the
military mans job is to fight - or to serve
close to the fighting lines. He has no nclina-
ton to interfere with the civilian life of the
country. He has no desire to run industry in
any way, shape or form
Colonel johnson might have added that the
Army's Mobilization of Industry" seeks to
protect American business and American labor
not only from the War Department but also
from all the other regular departments of the
government. 1t gives no special wartime powers
to any of those departments. 1t concentrates
all such powers in the War Resources Admin
istration, which is not only civilian but
entirely nonpolitical and entirely temporary.
If we hold fast to these principles, laid down
for us by our Army, we shall have neither
