British May Get 100 TankerS.
In another angle of the oil situa-
ton the New York Times reported
last night that the Government has
asked owners of tankers registered
in this country to turn over 100 more
vessels to Great Britain and that a
conference on the subject has been
called for tomorrow afternoon in
Secretary Ickes' Office.
Immediate transfer of all 100
tankers is not planned Immediately,
the newspaper declared, but an in
itial shift of Is is probable. With
so tankers already transferred. an
additional 100 would reduce the Ma
tons tanker feet by about so per
cent. Forty-eight Norwegian tank
ers now chartered to the United
States, Britain and other countries
and now moving oil in non-belliger-
ent waters also will be taken over
by the English. the Times said.
Shipments Decreasing.
Secretary Ickes, who has asserted
that a ration card system is being
studied because of the petroleum
shortages arising from transfer of
tankers to the British, said that
investigation of supply and con-
sumption in the populous seaboard
area has shown that:
l. The daily average shipment OF
petroleum and petroleum products
from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic
seaboard had declined Substantially,
and that further declines were an
ticipated.
2. Existing supplementary trans
.portation facilities could make up
only part of the deficiency and
certain contemplated new transpor-
tation facilities would not be ready
until 1912
3. The trend of consumption of
petroleum products in this area was
upward.
4. AS a result of these factors,
the usual seasonal increase in stocks
to meet the heavy winter demand
was we'll below the normal rate, and
the stocks of industrial fuel oils
motor fuel and crude petroleum
would not be adequate to meet es-
sential demands this winter unless
there was an immediate and dras-
tic reduction in current consump-
ton.
Addressed to Is States.
The States to which Mr.. Ickes
addressed his communication are
Maine, Vermont. New Hampshire,
Massachusetts,, Connecticut, Rhode
Island, New York. Pennsylvania,

Suburban Street
Problem Is Acute

BY LYNN NISBET.

Raleigh. Feb. "A long standing
problem, becoming more and more
acute, and which some effort to
alleviate is going to be made With
in a few days, is that Of roads and
streets in thickly settled communl-
ties Just outside city limits, and not
in recognized developments or sub
divisions. These roads nave LOT
years been treated like red-headed
stepchildren. through no desire OF
road people but because OF statutory
limitations. The roads aren't inside
corporate towns, and the towns can
not legally work them. The general
highway law limits maintenance
work of the state road forces 10
roads ION the map. These oards,
actually streets sometimes not more
than a few hundred yards long, are
not and should not be on the high
way system maps. Therefore, the
state forces can't work them. The
counties have no equipment or or
~ganization machinery ana mere
probably would be great opposition
to any suggestion that counties go
back into the road business.
This problem exists to some eX-
tent in nearly every county. Even
if this particular problem OF thick
" populated settlements isn't present,
every county does have short coun-
trv roads leading to and from a few
farms out to roads thai are shown
on highway maps. The farmers can
maintain them, the county can
not maintain them, and under the
present law the state highway COM
mission is not allowed to work them.
Senator Gregg Cherry, concerned
about the plight Of residents in some
of the mill villages in CASTOR coun-
tv outside town limits, proposes to
introduce a bill permitting the high
wav commission to maintain roads
and streets Of this type, upon recon-
mendation Of the county commits

Money Is important in the modern
world. for We pay our way with if,
buy what We need. and provide Cor
our families with it. But it is only a
medium of exchange. 1t never is or
can be as important as tO do what
God wants US to. If we are generous,
open-hearted, charitable, with our
money it can do Us no harm. We
can be Gods children and use our
money for good. But if we begin to
hoard it, to scheme to get it, and to
spend it only for our selfish
ends, it will only constitute a threat
TO our present and future happiness,
IN this world and hereafter.
The Pharisees, who loved money.
heard Jesus tell thus parable and they
snecred at His words. Jesus, knowing
what was in their hearts, told them
that that which is highly esteemed
among men is abominatiOn in the
sight of God" and proceeded to tell
them of some abuses in the customs
OF he times that they Winked at,
especially the divorce laws.
Jesus then told them the story of
the certain rich man" who was
clothed in purple and fine linen, and
Jared sumptuously every day.
And there was aIsO a certain beg
gar named Lazarus, who. in his rags,
and with his body fun of sores, was
laid at the rich mans door, hoping
to eat the crumbs that fell from his
table to sustain life. The dogs were
his only friends.
Both Men Died.
1t came to pass, said Jesus, that
both died. Lazarus was taken to
"ADraham's BOSOM in heaven; but
the rich man found himself in Hades
where he was tortured with flames
and thirst. Seeing the poor man hap
ply, he asked Abraham if Lazarus
could not be sent down 10 him with
| (. few drops Of cool water to wet his
scorched tongue. Abraham explained
that nothing could be done. The rich
man had had his good things While
he was still on earth; but Lazarus
had had nothing but suffering while
alive, 50 now he had his comforts in
the after life.
Then the rich man, called "Dives,'
which means rich. asked if Lazarus
could not be sent to earth to tell the
rich mans brothers of what was in
store for them when they died if
they continued to live lives Of selfish
ease on earth. He said they might
not believe the prophets among

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON W. BURGE

Dy lhohN YIN w. DohoLSSs
Speaking of Mrs. Grouse, where
is she?" asked Peter Rabbit eagerly
of Strutter the Ruffed Grouse, as he
sat on his thunder-log.
Attending to her household af-
fairs as a good housewife should"
retorted Strutter promptly.
DO you mean to say she has a
nest and eggs?" asked Peter.
Strutter nodded. She has IL
eggs" he added, proudly.
Il suppose said Peter, artfully,
'her nest is on the ground some
where near here"
Its on the ground, Peter, but as
to where it is, l am not saying a
word" replied Strutter. 1T may
and it may not be near here. Do you
want to hear me drum again?"
Of course Peter said he did, and
that was simply an excuse for Strut
ter to show off once more. There is
no one who delights more in show
ing off than does Strutter the Ruffed
Grouse Peter stayed while long
er to gossip, but finding Strutter
more interested in drumming than
in talking, he finally said goodby
and once more started for home.
Il really would like to know
where that nest is" said he to him
self. as he scampered along. II
suppose Mrs. Grouse has hidden it
SO cleverly that 1t is quite useless
for me to look for it, 1t would be a
waste of time"
SO Peter Scampered on and pres
emily he passed a certain big tree
All around the ground was carpeted
with brown, dead leaves. There
were no bushes or young trees
there. Peter never once thought
of looking in such a place for a
nest. 1t was the last place in the
world he would have expected to
find one. When he was we'll past
the big tree there was soft
chuckle and from among the brown
leaves at the foot of that tree a
head with pair of the brightest
black eyes was raised little. Those
black eyes twinkled as they watched
Peter cut of sight.
He didn't see me at all, chuckled
Mrs. Grouse, as she settled down
once more. That is what comes of
having a coat so like the color of
these nice brown leaves. He isn't
the only one who has passed me
without seeing me at all. 1t is bet
ter than trying to hide a nest, and
certainly am thankful to Old
Mother Nature for the cloak she
gave me. I wonder if every one of
these y eggs will hatch. If they all
hatch I certainly will have a family
TO be proud of.
Mrs. Grouse settled herself con-
tentedly and Peter hurried on in
his usual happygo-lucky fashion.
not once suspecting how near he
had come to one of the incest secrets

TESTIMONIAL

You have guided the Department through the greatest expansion in it's history into it's truly Golden Age. With wisdom with vigor, and with answering devotion to right and to justice you have administered the growing responsibilities of this great agency of Federal Government ..
 "The record of the Department under you is written boldly for all to see Its services and functions have expanded in number and in worth. You have used the authority of your office devot- edly in behalf of the people At the council table, in the public press the platform and before the mcrophone, yours has been the voice of the public yours the of the under -prvileged; yours the championship of the fortnight action"
 Guess who?
 Why, this is part of testimonial to Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes of course, delivered by the Departments staff on March 18 the occasion of Honest Harolds becoming the first Secretary of the Interior in the history of this great nation to hold the office for more than eight years

WEDNESDAY, APRIL g

l WGDlNCOLhI AIIt1b
 Benefic aspects dominate today which should be favorable for the arts as we'll as industry Labor is under a fortunate rule of the stars.
 Heart and Home: The stars smile upon women of all ages. The as- poets inspire domestic tasks as well as public service. There is good sign for gardening. Whatever adds beauty and attractiveness to the home should be acquired, since this year is to deepen appreciation of pleasant retreats far removed from battlefronts. This is a fortunate rule of the stars for romance. It is also a lucky date for weddings or social entertainments.
 Business Affairs: In many places a shortage of men and women workers will be felt before June. Wages will increase and there swill be distinct rise in the wave of prosperity. Possible war hazards will make capitalists cautious about private enterprises, but cooperative with great government projects. The cost of building materials will soar. despite efforts to keep prices with in reach of home makers. News papers will expand their circula- tions and new owners will control noted groups, including metropoli- tan journals.
 National Issues: Workers will en- joy improved living conditions and short hours, as extreme efficiency will be sought in manufacturing plants. In many parts of the coun try the truest democracy will pro- gress as persons of all classes unite for the common good. With unity of purpose employers and employ ees will push defense measures Of every sort Among statesmen who crave publicity, criticism of nation al policies will become futile as real perils to the nation are gen. erally recognized
 International Affairs: The pres ence of Mars in Aries, Britain's ruling planet, is read as promising determined resistance to invasion and the prosecution of the war un- til victory is won. The endurance of Englands defenders is to be put to terrible tests, but final and complete vanquishing of the dicta- tors is forecast. Peace overtures are indicated, but they will be treacherous. Complete defeat of Hitler is the only solution of pres ent conditions in Europe, the seers declare. 'ii'
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of ex- banding fortunes. Young persons will gain high positions. } ~
 Children born on this day will be dependable and energetic. They should be endowed with splendid intelligence and strong bodies. Y
