ARBITRATION BECOMING A FACT.
A plan lias hecu worked nut by rcjircsciitnt ives of 1 Ik
United Slaves ( 'biiinliei' of ( 'oniniiTee for I lie use of arliil ra
tion bv business nien as the normal method of seltlinu
Inisiness disputes. .Joseph II. DetYeos, retiring; liresident
of the ehamlier, in siilmrittiiiir the plan to the nieniliei'-
hhip, remarks on its already vide use. He detdafes that
eoiirinodit ies valued at liil'liiuis id' dollars are now bought
and Hold every year under contracts which provide thai
differences shall be arbitrated!.
The" arrangement promised eontenidates that settle
inient of local business controversies by existing com
mercial bodies in the localities concerned, aud of disputes
within an industry by trade associations, and settlement
m the N;ill.ionaJ Chamber of cases outside of 1rade juris
diction.
The chamber has already set up machinery for handl
ing disputes that, can he adjusted simply by 1he informal
use of good offices by business ( rgani.at ions. It is fell
nectessary to supplement this with niachineiiy fur formal
arbitration for more iiilTicnlt cases. The most serious
eases of nil will naturally be cairied to the iy urts, but it
is desired to reduce them to the lowes'i. possible number.
This movement is in. line with the common st'iise tend
ency in such matters. It is recognized that court proceu
' nro is, as a general thing, cumbersome, costly and dila
tory, i'rival' business is generally haiiillleil more elli-
K'Hently than. public business, and it seems especially likely
to be so when private business uses its own direct methods
to ilispense justice.
Nations are coining to utilize -arbitral ion on a. big scale;
it is obviously easier and simpler for private business i
dot hie same thing. KvcnltuaHy this simplified machinery
ijl' justice may be applied to 1'ho minor disputes id' citizens
by legal establishment, as a. recognized part of the court
machinery. An experintvul. of this very sort is now being
made in New, York.

Is there any discomfort comparable to 1hai of a news-

There h
no;mys!eiy
about good oil
It must be made from crudes carefully
selected for their "oil mess" and stabili
ty. These crude9 must be refined to
preserve their original characteristics
and to make them pure.
In selecting crudes for Zerolene the
Standard Oil Company has the advan
tage of its own large production of
practically every type of crude. The
company is not compelled to use any
particular crude because it happens
to be the only one available.
Crudes seltcted for Zeroltn are brought to
our reentries in apeclul pipe lines. They are
renntd by our own patonted, high-viicuum
process which preserves their "ulliness" mid
ij lability.
No other refiner on the Pacific Coast uses any
form of vacutmi diminution. No other rWinur
in the United States uses as high a vacuum tts
this company.
Purity Essential
Zerolene oils are pure. This company has at
ways considered the removal of all detrimental
properties aud compounds as essenuul in mak
iuK Zerolene.
because of their "oiliness," stability and purity,
Zerolene oils give perfect lubrication, and per
