Oil Producers
Hold Production
Conference Here

A meeting of oil producers in
Central Ohio was held in the
Licking County Court House at
Newark Wednesday to consider
the oil production cost question
naire recently submitted to pro-
ducers nationally by the United
States Tariff Commission.
J. A. Carson of the tariff COM
mission staff at Washington at
tended the meeting to explain
the QUESTIONABLE and to advise
and assist the producers. The
Tariff Commission undertook the
oil producing cost study at the
request of Leon Henderson, chief
of the Office of Price Admins
tration, following the filing of
a brief on production costs in
the Pennsylvania grade oil pro-
ducing areas by representatives
of the industry at a conference
with Price Administration Off
cials last fall.
Future crude oil prices may be
based upon the findings of the
commission in this study, accord
ing to Philip N. Faine, New
Straitsville, secretary of the or
ganization who made arrange
ments for the meeting. Small
oil producers, who usually have
a higher operating cost, filed a
QUESTIONABLE so a correct picture
on oil producing costs can be Sc
cured, Faine stated. The meet
ing was for producers of both
Corning and Pennsylvania grade

An unusually bright pic

Newark Woman S
War Song To Be
Broadcast

Coming into local prominence
during the past year and one
half in the music and poetry
world is Elanore A. Atha, 351
Clinton street. j. f. Atha, well
known Newark printer, now re-
tired, is her husband.
Mrs. Atha started writing poe
try about year and a half ago
and since that time has over 800
poems to her credit. Two hymns
have been set to music working
in collaboration with Raymond
j. Iden, and received their prem
iere in the Central Church of
Christ. They are "The Prodi-
gals Return" and 80 Beautiful
City" Approximately 900 copies
of the hymns have been sold and
the works are held by capable
critics, to be of high merit.
Recently completed and now
in the hands of the keenan, Mu-
sic Service, New York city, is a
patriotic song. Mrs. Atha wrote
the words and Robert VanSickle
the music. 1t is snappy tune
set to four-four cut time, accord
ing to Mr.. Atha.
Recordings are being made by
the keenan, company for use ov-
er the radio. Mrs. Atha will re-
ceive royalties on the song,
which was written following
Americas entry into the war.
An effort appearing in the
Christmas Poem Book, published
in New York City, recently gave
Mrs .Atha considerable promin-
ence as an author.

HOnOred

Newark's greatest glory
Twill probably be found in
ra history of the young
x men who helped to build
the community. Added hon
ors should necessarily come
to those who strive to keep
up the standards set in the
past and who have vision in
to the future for further
progress.
If the foregoing premise
is correct, then all honor
should go to Roy A. Coch-
ran, past president of the
Newark junior chamber of
commerce and present
member of the board of dir
ectors. Mr.. Cochran should
be proud and Newark
should be proud, that a
group of professional and
business men decided after
due deliberation that to Roy
Cochran should go the re-
cognition of being the
young man in Newark who
has contributed the most to
the welfare of the commun-
ity during the past year.
That type of honor comes
only to the individual who
has earned it, not only by
his personal living, but by
the unselfish devotion to
civic and cultural affairs Of
the community.
We congratulate Mr..
Cochran as his name is add
ed to the roster containing
those of two other Newark
young men who have been
previously honored.
Those who know Mr..
Cochran and his unselfish
efforts will agree that he
is indeed a worthy candi-
date.

Is whether William Powell is an An
thony Edenish foreign Office diplo-
mat, or notorious bandit wanted
for murder. Amnesia enters. Po-
we'll, married for 81 days to Hedy
Lamar. respected as a statesman,
is suddenly confronted with the
charge Of being a wanted man. 1t
seems that on certain night in
1922 he was in a train accident
when the Paris-Marseilles express
crashed. fracturing his skull and
erecting curtain of blackness that
erased memories. Is he really David
Talbot or the blackleg, Jean Pei
letter? Basil Rathbone as the
menace succeeds in freeing him of
the Indictment, proceeds to black
mail him under threat of fresh ex-
posures. Faced with the loss OF his
fortune and the beauteous lady,
Powell contrives to clarity the situ-
alton in a surprise finish, slightly
incredible but convenient for the
authors.
In this straight acting role Mr..
Powell is neither as dashing or
bibulous as in his Thin Man"
breeziness, but he has a splendid
conception of what romance calls
for and, given an alluring, partner,
makes these lighter moments count.
Hedy Lamar is constantly growing
in acting stature and, as Lucienne
Talbot, contributes one of her
finest Hollywood performances.
Director Jack Conway's pace is
occasionally lethargic, traced to
lengthy conversational sequences,
but the cast of players is so excel
