No organized effort has been made,
according to creamery men, to have a

the United States next fall. At the
senate hearings, an eastern creamery
association presented a petition that

on butter that had been suggested.

WASHINGTON. T. C. May 1.
Bituminous coa! output during the
past week reached the highest mark
since the beginning of the miners'
strike, the geological survey an
nounced yesterday. Production of an
thracite, however, remained at prac
tically zero.
Telegraphic report? as to produc
tion covered loadings through last
Thursday, and indicated, it was said,
that if there was no unexpected
slump the total soft coal output for
the week would approximate 4.150,000
tons. A total of 1 2.1 SI cars was
loaded last Monday the greatest
aumber since the strike began.
The increase during the week, the
statement declared. came largely
from the non-union districts of the
middle and southern Appalachians.
It was not due, the statement added,
to the return to work- of trlL-irn
miners, cither union or non-union,
but rather to Increased demand re
aulting in greater activity In those
districts which have remained at
work.

Revised figures show a production
during the week ending Saturday,
April 22, according to the survey, of
3,500,000 tons of soft coal and 6000
tons of anthracite. The same week of
the 1919 strike saw 5,344,000 tons of
bituminous and 2,055,000 tons of an
thracite produced.
In an analysis of the coal situation,
made public today, the United States
chamber of commerce declared that at
the present rate of production and
consumption there was no danger of
a general coal shortage for at least
six weeks.

OIL PROSPECTS DEPICTED
Scientist Sees Development Possi

Great possibilities for the develop
ment of oil fields are to be found in
central Oregon, said Herschel C.
Parker, scientist and geologist, in an
address before the members' forum
I of the Chamber of Commerce yester
I day. He told of the investigations
he had made in the country surround
j ing Prineville and said these con
vinced him that there were great
possibilities for the opening up of a
great oil-producing district In the
state.
Charles J. Zerzan, president of the
American Czecho-Slovak chamber of
commerce of Portland, also made a
brief talk and told of the birth of
Czecho-Slovak ia.
The members of the forum went
on record as advocates of protection

BUENOS AIRES, May 1. Spe
cial.) Inspired by United States
movies and "Wild West" fiction, pop
ular with Argentine youth, a Buenos
Aires producer staged his own ver
sion of the west. It was a musical
comedy called "From Buenos Aires
to the Far West," and was replete
with bandits, cowboys, "tin lizzies,"
hip pocket armor, bootleg whisky and
"el shimme fox trot." It completed
a record run in a large theater re
cently. While the eenorita of the River
Platte country runs consideraby to
avoirdupois, she showed off well in
the Alaska dance hall type of cos
tume and managed to ride side-saddle
on a horse. As for the gallant cow
boy, he achieved a half-deerskin,
half -chaps effect, enhanced by heavy
hardware about the waist. Fortu
nately the stage was large enough
for the enormous hats which the men
wore. The hats shared attention
with the boots, which were the real
article from " Russia, specially de
signed for the new dances executed
by bare-kneed, might - have - been
Greek youths.
To the accompaniment of several
fusillades and a jazz band, the party
at last arrived at the principal bar,
draped with the stars and stripes,
hung upside down. Here were more
bathing beauties, each tipping the
scales at around 200 pounds. The
ingenue was upholstered in a blue
Spanish shawl with green roses nes
tling in her blond locks and was
busily drinking $25 a quart liquor.
While the blond one was thus
drumming up business for the shop,

Such was Myria of the bobbed hair

seemed to be to show her resem

possible. A board of censors would
have had subject for investigatory re
ports to last a month just from that
one little dance.
When the heaving "famous inter
preter" had permitted her rolls of
fat to subside to the last encore,
bandits shot up the furniture again
and ordered more booze. The blond,
who had by now downed several bot
tles, got up and sang about "My
Sch weed hard, I lof heem."
The jazz band blared "I Won't Go
Home Until Morning," and more am
munition was used up. Occasionally
some one would shout, "Teh, all
right!' for local color.

Combat the dingy film. Do it
as millions now are doing in
this scientific way. Then the
prettier teeth you see everywhere
now will come to you and yours.
The cloudy film
Your teeth are coated with a
viscous film. It clings to teeth,
gets between the teeth and stays.
When not combated, it forms
coats which are the basis of tar
tar. Film absorbs stains, making
the teeth look dingy. Those
cloudy teeth rob millions of much
beauty.
Film also holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid.
It holds the acid in contact with
the teeth to cause decay.
Germs breed in it, and they,
with tartar, are the chief cause
of pyorrhea. Thus most tooth
troubles are now traced to film.
Ways to end it
Film has been the great tooth
problem. Old methods did not
end it. So well-brushed teeth
discolored and decayed. Tooth
troubles have been constantly in
creasing. Now dental science,
after long research, has found
two ways to fight film. Able
authorities have proved their ef
ficiency. Careful people the world
over now see and feel the results.
A new-type tooth paste has
been created, made to meet mod
ern requirements. The name is
Pepsodent. These two film com
batants are embodied in it for
daily application.
Five new effects
Pepsodent brings five effects
which science now demands. One
is to multiply the starch diges-
tant in the saliva. That is there
to digest starch deposits on teeth
before they ferment and form
acids. One is to multiply the
alkalinity of the saliva. That is
Nature's agent for neutralizing
mouth acids the cause of tooth
decay. It leaves the teeth so
highly polished that film less
easily dings.
All five effects come from every
application. So film, starch and
acids are constantly combated.
Forces are created which night
and day fight enemies of teeth
To countless homes, all the
world over, this has brought a
new era in teeth cleaning. The
results will be life-lasting.
