KEROSENE

A history of man could be written in terms of his ability
to provide himself light. No chapter in that history would be
more revealing than the story Of the service of the humble
kerosene lantern.
Down through long centuries man used a lantern. 1t is
not recorded when he first learned to submerge part of a wick
in animal oil and obtain light from the other end. But when
kerosene came along man quickly learned to imprison the wick
in a globe so that the lantern could be carried.
To kerosene, or coal oil, as it is still called in certain areas,
man owes much. Uncounted millions of railroad lanterns, with
double wire protection around the heavy globe, have followed
the railroads as they pushed over mountains and plains to-
ward the land of the setting sun. Today, they guard lives and
freight on the nations 100000 miles of railroads.
Kerosene lanterns have hung beneath farm wagons on the
way to town Saturday night; they have served their turn on
the sides of gay carriages and sleighs when city folk drove
about the streets in early evening. They have hung as signals
on ships and today stand or hang in sentred rows when a
street or road is under repair. They have served for light in
man-made caverns deep in the earth. Not too long ago the
Iampighter made his daily round along the street, lighting.
the lamps inside the wrought-iron lanterns that stood on oaken
posts.
No one can tell what the sight of a lantern has meant in
terms of human happiness. On many a lonely road, in many
an isolated home, the sight of a cleaning lantern has given
comforting heart flow. 1t is %symbolcal that once upon a time
a lanterns light cleaned from a church steeple and a man
sped off to awaken a new country to its destiny. Lanterns are
good companions of man. Giving light to dark places, bring
ing cheer to human hearts, they help mans feet keep the
path that leads upward.

THE PRESIDENT DEMANDS ECONOMY

President Truman recently sent a letter to the heads of
executive departments and agencies of the government, which
is potentially of the greatest Importance. In that letter, the
President demanded maximum economy in the administration
of the bureaus concerned.
"Our present fiscal situation is a most serious one" the
Chief Executive said. "We must do everything within our
power to reduce infationary pressures.. One of the most e-
fective means of doing this is to reduce federal expenditures"
1t remains to be seen just how well Mr.. Truman can force
department heads to carry out his explicit instructions. Nor
nany, highlevel bureaucrats are extremely unwilling to cut
their budgets and organizations. They work on the principle
of the more the merrier. The plain fact is that the country
can no longer afford that kind of a philosophy. The very
root of initiation is excessive government spending.
Congress, when it reconvenes, will also have a chance to
help prevent initiation by cutting costs. If the multitude OF
government agencies won't voluntarily cut down, Congress
must force them to.

Show Food Picture
In Brighter Light
Some Restrictions May Be
Softened Later.

WASHINGTON. - There is a pos
sibility that restriction on use Of
grains for food, livestock feed and
industrial uses may be eased if
wheat and corn harvests wer al
record levels now forecast, accord
ing to an agriculture department
announcement.
The department said final de-
cision would be governed in part
by the world food situation.
The government has earmarked
$50, 000, 900 bushels of this years
1,160, 000, 900 bushel wheat crop for
export. This country exported about
1856, 000, 900 bushels from last years
crop.
The department said that in gen.
eral the situation for the remainder
of 1916 would be much the same as
in 1915 after VI Day, when most
foods we're taken off %rationing.
There may be somewhat less of
some foods, including chicken and
sweet potatoes, but more potatoes,
fresh fruits and vegetables.
The department said meat sup
plies for civilians would be larger
than a year ago until late fall. Live
stock held back in late May and
June. now is being marketed.
BY October, however, lower pro-
duction of beef and lamb than in
1915 and larger exports to shortage
areas abroad may bring civilian
supplies below the near record
consumption of last winter.
Fish and eggs are expected to be
plentiful the rest of the year. About
as many turkeys will be marketed
as in the 1915 holiday season..
The department said there was
little prospect of a significant i'm
orovement in supplies of fats-such
IS butter, margarine, lard, shorten
ny = in the next few months.
Supplies of milk in all forms will
seasonably smaller in the re-
naming months of 1916, the depart
nent said.
