Club w omen
Ask Raised
Crude Price

CUT BANK - Club women OF
America are awake to unfairness
of the present crude oil price sfruc-
ture, and are joining In the move
to see that the price Is raised 10
point where producers win at least
be assured of breaking even.
This was revealed here by Mrs.
Walter E. Peoples. delegate TO the
General Federation of Women's
Clubs, national sessions of which
were held at st. Louis. Endorsed
by the convention, Mrs. Peoples re-
ported, was the following resOlu-
ton:
WHEREAS, it is well known
fact that the citizens of the United
States are faced with definite
crude oil shortage which win be
come increasingly acute, and
WHEREAS, the present price of
crude oil offers no incentive to-the
discovery and development Of new
fields, but an increase OF 35 cents
per barrel In trade would provide
this Incentive, increasing the price
VI B6St1141E W A3tE SOfAsdtfkF1k IC4ll
per gallon, and
WHEREAS, statistics show that
raw material prices increased 35
percent from June, 1910, to Septem-
Der, 1043, while crude oil prices re-
manned stationary, and since oil is
an important commodity In win
ming the war,
THEREFORE, BEL RE
SOLVED, that the General Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs in conven-
ton assembled, April 1894. requests
the president Of the United States,
the governors OF the several states,
and each member of congress to use
their best effort to advance the
present price of crude oil 35 cants
per barrel and thereby create an
incentive for drilling an adequate
number of exploratory wells, which
will increase our rapidly dwiradling
crude oil reserves, and
BE 1T FURTHER RESOLVED,
that copies of this resolution be
sent to Secretary Harold Tclxes
Paul Davies, and the chairman OF
committee ON production.

Pine Creeks
Zinc and Lead
Areas Mapped

Detailed geologic mapping of the
zinc-lead mines of the Pine Greek
area in the Occur d'AIene region
of northern Idaho indicates that
they have a reserve of 100000 tons
of minable ore under present war
time prices, according TO an an
nouncement made t0dav by the geo
logical survey Production during
June and July, 1913, was 315 tons
daily, but j. ID. Forester, geol0gist
who studied the area, points out
that with some changes a daily pro
duction of $50 tons might be at
tanned.
To facilitate exploration work in
this region, geologic maps have
been prepared on scale of 100 feet
to the inch for all the mines ac-
cessible in July, 1913. These include
the following: Little Pittsburgh,
Douglas, Nevada Stewart, Lynch
Pine Creek, Constitution, Sidney,
Highland Surprise, Lookout Noun
tain and Denver.
Copies of the Sidney, Lynch-Pine
Creek, Nevada Stewart and Denver
maps are now available to persons
directly interested In the area. Ap-
plication should be made to the Di-
rector, Geological Survey, Washing
ton 25, d. C., or 10 the u. S. Geolog-
ical Survey, 707 Peyton Building,
Spokane 8, Wash. Reproduction of
the Little Pittsburgh, Douglas, Con-
stitution, Highland Surprise and
Lookout Mountain maps has been
delayed, but they will be released at
a later date.

New regulations governing the
manner in which federal employees

from their positions in the event
of a reduction in force have been

to be construed to mean that there
is any imminent reduction in force
likely because of a cessation OF
hostilities, McAuliffe added.
The commission advised en-
ployes against seeking jobs in or
