"You Can i rusâ the People” OMAMA JOHN DEERE PLOW PAR ¡5 d . c. M c I ntyre PEARL DIVING HALIS ON HIKUERU ISLAND JAPAN MUST IMPORT SUPPLIES FOR NAVY Tokio. Sept. 25.—There is no hope it is said, for Japan at present to be come self-supporting in the matter of oil supplies and the naval author ities have ordered seven tankers which are to carry oil imported for the Japanese navy. While the demand for oil steadily increases, the output in the country tends to decrease. The present out put of raw oil is only about 320,000 tons a year. The heavy oil con sumed by the navy amounts to about 100,000 tons a year and assuming that 40 per cent of heavy oil can bo made out of a ton of raw oil the naval demand can be more than sufficiently met by the home pro duct. But besides the requirements of the navy there is a vast general demand to be met. When the eight battleship and eight battle cruiser squadron program ie completed in 1927, it is estimated that the demand of the navy will amount to at least 700.000 tons, whereas there seems no hope of an increase in the output of oil in this country. The authorities have for some time been engaged in the investiga tion .of oil fields in Saghalien and in other places but no satisfactory re sults have yet been obtained. The oil fields at Kosenho and Nairyo In Formosa have been worked some what but the field at Nairyo is en tirely disappointing; the result of the working of the Kosenho field will not be known for two or three months, but satisfactory results are not expected. The oil tankers ordered will have' a dlsplai ement of 11.000 tons each' and will carry 9,000 tons of oil. Island trading schooners.

I '«> rter uff'ce Here is a new ouue play pulled In the American league, players of the Yankees and Browns being guilty: Aaron Ward of the Yankees was on first. A pitched ball grazed the shirt of Sam Vick at bat and, claiming he was hit, he started for first base Wart! seeing him coming, trotted down to second. The umpire, however, refused to al low Vick to take his base for being hit by a pitched ball and called him back to bat. Whereupon Ward turned around and slowly walked back to first base. Ward technically ha»! stolen second base and was entitled to it. Rut nc St. Louis player attempted to interfere with him returning to first or made any move to tag him off that bag. which was the one he legally held, and the only one. The game went on.
