The laboratories of great in
dustrial corporations are more
valuable than nil our gold and
silver supply. Mr. Walter Tea
gle, president' of the Standard
(1 Company of New Jersey,
announces a new process for
making gasoline that will yield
two barrels of gasoline where
only one could be extracted be
fore. This news is vitally import
ant to the world's oil supply,
as it will provide the gigantic
quantities of' gasoline needed
without criminal waste of the
oil.
Standard Oil will not keep to
itself the new process .which it
owns jointly with the "I. 0.
Parbenindnstrie" of Germany.
Seventeen oil companies in
deluding five Standard Oil com
panies, representing 80 per cent
of all the gasoline production
in the United States, will share
in the process.
Ton note that the Dutch
British " Shell' company is not
included in the list. Sir Henri
Deterding, who does not lack
energy, will try to do something
about that.
Mr. Klihu Root, very a$le
man, advocates n special" na
tional police to. keep trajjk of
the "reds," communists that
by secret means, according to
Mr. Root, aim at the lestruc
tion of our gHernment."
The R(Vernment should keep
itself informed concerning the
activities of all secret societies,

Tie less secrecy in a republic,
the better. .

would . discourage them still
more.

The pope is quoted as saying:

Limit Intermediate
The Pacific rail lines, holding
that generally existing rates
through intermediate inland points
should not be increased above

VP) Extensive development of
chromlto, copper and lime deposits
in Oregon was forecast hero today
at the opening of tho mld-Paclflc
Kmplre Mineral Utiinomic confer
ence, attended by 200 miners and
cngincom This development, the
delegates were told, would result
from the opening of water trans
portation for southern Oregon and
northern I'ulltnrnlu through tho
port of Orescent t:ity. The con
ference Is considering mining es
pecially In Its relation to trans
portation. Gold and quicksilver would
share In the Increased production
as tho result of water transpor
tation, chiefly because supplies
could ho obtained cheaper, speak
ers said.

Oregon Ik paying too much at
tention to high-grade gold and
copper. Ho said the coming of
low-grade workings with huge ton
nage and great payrolls would
spell prosperity . for the mineral
belt of the counties along the
Oregon-California line.
W. H. Itoblnson, formerly with
the American Hmclilng and Ile
flnlng company, said copper sell
ing at 12 cents and bringing 24
a ton would return only 17 to
the producer after phlpplng nnd
smelting charges are paid. This
would not pay mining charges.
