"X"
marks the spot
sometimes
Fl THE DAYS of Spanish
plate ships and the Jolly
Roger when Morgan sailed
and Blackbeard scourged the
seas the banks were few and
scattered. Furthermore, a bank
er was likely to suspect a de
positor who wore ear-rings and
carried a knife in his teeth.
So a practicing pirate had no
choice but to bury his treasure
and mark his map with an "X."
If there could be a map of
the oil industry, that would
have an "X" upon it, too
perhaps several of them. But
this would be no "X" which
marks the spot. It would be
"X" in another form repre
senting the unknown.
How many persons know, for
instance, that for what has been
taken out of 'the oil industry
investors have put in more than
twelve billion dollars? ... Or
that above four million persons
depend for support upon its
1,250,000 workers? ... Or that
two million Americans share
in its dividends?
Did you, to be specific, know
that government has obtained
more income from petroleum
products than the industry has
earned from their sale?
Such facts, we believe, should
be known to everybody be
cause they affect everybody. The
"X" on an ancient treasure map
is mostly romance. Our "X" is
one of hard-boiled mathematics
personal both to us and to
you.

Representative
Civic Concert
Eyes Situation
Mr. Bam II. Harrington, west coast
representative of Civic Concert Ser
vice. Inc., a subsidiary of National
Broadcasting company of New York
City, arrived In Medford Monday to
formulate plans for a concert series

try, has been most successful In
booking civic concert service for

the growing demand for the high
standard concerts that Civic Concert
Service provides.

home of William F. Isaacs and Mon
day evening. Mr. and Mrs. Royal E.
Bebb were guests of Mr. Harrington's

Connection Between Racket
and City and County Poli
tics Claimed Would
Follow New York Policy
By PHIL NEW'SOM
(United Press Staff Correspondent.!
CHICAGO. Aug. 25. (UP) Chi
cago churchmen "turned the heat"
on the multi-million dollar Ram
bling racket today with a demand
Gov. Henry Horner investigate the
connection between the racket and
city and county politics.
"Names are too well known to
mention." the Chicago church fed
eration said in an open letter to the
governor.
"It is reported constantly In order
to open up a gambling Joint a pay
ment of $250 a week In some In
stances must be paid. How this take
Is divided up and what officials par
ticipate In this unholy profit la a
matter for official Investigation.
"If the city and county refuse to
Investigate, we respectfully ask you
as chief executive to Institute an
official inquiry."
The federation, representing l.ObO
Protestant churches, demanded tlw
Investigation be similar to the one
conducted by District Attorney Thorn
as E. Dewey In New York.
Coincident with the federation's
letter, state's attorney's "hatchet
men were continuing a series of raid:,
started a week ago against the hand
books. Failure to obtain convictions In the
courts where In the last two days
94 persons arrested in gambling raids
have been released, led to organiz
ation of the wrecking crew des.gne.-l
to undertake a drive to make hand
book operation strictly a hazardous
and expensive venture.
