PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TTtTBtTE. ' MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 3. 1922 COLONEL IV1UNDY TO TAKE CHARGE TRIGONIA WELL Col. J. F. Mundy, of Medford, may he down but like the Salvation Army man he Is never out. The colonel, known to practically everyone In Southern Oregon could write hin check for a quarter of a million onre upon a time. Now he can't. Hut he itf determined to come back and come back strong, and while nearly everyone loyally h;i become discour aged over the oil prospects in Jack son county, the colonel hasn't. ?K is positive there is oil here and in pay ing quant KU-s, and by a contract re cently closed, he in taking over the Trijronfa well to prove It- The contract is an odd one. Prob ably u h a contract has never been drawn up In Southern Oregon before. Colonel Mundy and three experienced FVnsylvanla oil men, W. Mr Wil liam. Harold and Virgil McWUIiam. have already started to continue the drilling of the Trigonia well. Neither the Colonel, nor the McWllMams will get a cent lor their work unlM they strike oil in paying quantities. Hut if they strike oil. they get 1200.000 worth of Trigonia stock. That is the contract. So Colonel Mundy wants a few itpuds. some bacon and bread to feed himself and men during the process of getting this oil. He doesn't ask for money. He would just as soon have a cord of wood as a ten dollar bill, for there must be fuel to work the drill. In the opinion of the colonel's friends, the people of Medford will be glad to give the Colonel a lift In such an undertaking. Not only would the discovery of oil be a benefit to everyone In Southern Oregon, but everyone assisting the Colonel will be on tht ground floor If oil is secured. And the Colonel intends to secure it. THREE KILLED IN FIGHT, S. F.. GUN MORNING JULY TESTS SHOW COWS OF VALLEY PATIENT GIVEN ON A VACATION FOR MONTH OF JULYi ARE VICTORIOUS DUBLIN", Aug. .

(By the Asso ciated Press) That Great Britain has no intention of suggesting any alteration of her financial obligations to the United States was re-emphasized in the houso today by Sir Kib ert Home, chancellor or the exche quer, in reviewing the British posi tion on German reparations. 'I wish to make it clear beyond all question of misapprehension," de clared Sir Jiobert, "that we recognize to the full our obligations to pay our debts to the United States and we do not mean in any shape or form to evade that obligation." The foundation of the Earl of Bal four's note was the payment of the debt to the United States, declared the chancellor. 4,But while this is so we are not blind in Hits country to the colossal burdens Imposed on the nations of the world at the present time in the indebtedness of one nation to another." he said, "and we hold very stronirly the view that theres is no graver impediment to the recovery of the world from the ravages of war than existence of that debt." Sir Hobert pointed out that tho British debt wajt greater than that of any other nation, amounting to 7.766.000.000 pounds sterling, com pared with 5.147.000000 for the Unit ed States' and 6.340.000.000 for France. The British debt was 181 pounds sterling per head of the popu lation: the French 162 and the Amer ican 47, he showed, and In these cir cumstances It was impossible to make the British taxpayers alone shoulder the payment of the war debts. "If only the nations which fought side by side in the war had been will ing to regard their subscriptions to the war as contributions to the com mon success," he continued, "we might have been able to rid the world of many causes of Irritation and plant In the heart of humanity a new and inspiring home."

Great Bri tain's note to her debtor nations sug gesting cancellation of the whole inter allied indebtedness will cause no change In the policy of the United States towards its foreign loans, It was stated officially today at the treasury. Secretary Mellon was represented as taking the position that the American debt commission most continue negoti ations .for funding the obligations owed this country without regard to the disposition evidenced by Great Bri tain to wipe out international war time indebtedness. Moreover, Mr. Mellon was under stood to feel that inasmuch as Great Britain has officially acknowledged her debts to the I'nlted States and in dicated a willingness to liquidate them, and had announced the sending of a financial mission in September to dis cuss arrangements for payment there should be no hitch In the proceedings. ' Also, according to the treasury view, Hrltlsh statesmen In parliament have repeatedly described the, American debt as an obligation to be met While to a certain extent the British I note was regarded by the treasury as making- more difficult an already com- 1 plicated International financial situa tion. It was not considered as affecting the position of the United States toward foreign debts or nations. As the note was not addressed to the : United States. Mr. Mellon was said to hold the view that no official cognl tance of Its transmission would be , taken by this country.

I SWALLOW, DIES SEATTLE, Aug. S. The mistaking of barium sulphide, for barun: sul phate, investigators for Coroner W. H. Corson said today, caused the death yesterday of Rev. Cameron S. Morrison, formerly of Olympian rec tor of the Protestant Episcopal church of the Epiphany, of this eiiy.. M. p. Dix, pharmacist from whom Mr. Morrison purchased a package of drug, declares the mistake was not his. Dr. C. P. Bryant Monday instruct ed Mr. Morrison to buy and take barum splphate in preparation for an X-ray examination. Tuesday Mr. Morrison went Into Dix's drug store. After the purchase he expressed his satisfaction that he had obtained what he wanted in the first place he entered. He swallowed the drug that evening and began at once to suffer pains and dizziness. He was under Dr. Bryant's care until death. "Mr. Morrison- asked for barium sulphide and that Is what he got." said Dix. "I had no barium sulphate in the store, and would hare told him so at once." .' Mr. Morrison was 4 2 years old. "We use barium sulphate daily in X-ray work," said Mr. Bryant. It is a3 common today in Its application and its sale as bicarbonate of soda. When I discovered the label on the bottle I was amazed. " In fact 1 knew nothing about sulphide of barium, nor did my associates. Doctors Watts and Alton. We looked up the latest works on toxicology and could find no reference- to barium sulphide, al though barium sulphate was a sub ject exhaustively treated." Two Mads friction Italian Strike Ends. ROME. Aug. 3. (By the Asso ciated Press) The ministry of the interior announced this afternoon that the general strike which was proclaimed throughout Italy three days ago in protest against fascisti re prisals against communists was de clared ended at noon today. Jackson County Fair, Medford, Sep tember 13 to 16. tf It has been proved that as much as 20, of the power delivered to the driving wheels may be lost through friction, due to the use of an incor rect oil. This friction may be cf two kinds the friction of metal on metal, due to the failure of the oil to preserve a lubricating film between the bear ing surfaces, or the friction of oil on oil the internal, molecular friction of the lubricant. Too heavy an oil, or an cil lacking in "oiliness" the quality that makes it cling to the bearings while at the same time offering a minimum of internal or fluid friction constitutes a direct drain on the avaUable horsepower of your motor. The right body at all operating temperatures Mad from carefully selected crudes and scientifically refined by our patented high-vacuum process, Zerolene has great "oiliness." It clings to bearing surfaces, while offering in itself a minimum of frictional resistance to the engine power. . Zerolene maintains the right lubricating body under all conditions. As the engine gets hot, bearing clearances decrease. Analysis of Zerolene shows that the variations in its body, at the various engine temperatures, follow in close relation the de-Tease in bearing clearances. Because of their "oilines3," stability and purity, Zero lene oils give perfect lubrication and help to develop the maximum power, speed and gasoline mileage of the car.
