nvDFCVRD MAIL TRIBUNE. 'NfEDFORT). OREGON. WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 23. IflSS. PAGE THREE AMERICANS HELD IN SPANISH JAILS WASHINGTON. Not. 3. (AP) House Investigators received testi mony today communists were holding Americana In Jail In loyalist Spain. Sam Baron of New York, testifying before the Dies committee Investi gating un-American activities, said the only way to get them out was through publicity. "If there Is enough publicity we will be In a position to remedy the situation." he said. Chairman Dies (D.-Tex.) an nounced the committee would end Its investigation December 16 unless the 1939 congress gives it a new lease on life. They made it what it is today TO most persons the term "natural gasoline" sounds ' like something we get ready made from the ground and rush right down to the roadside for sale. That would be nice if true. Actually there are two . confusing things about "natural gasoline" (one) it's not nat ural, and (two) it isn't gasoline. Like many interesting peo ple, this product is a combina tion of gas and knowledge. It's really a part of natural gas, which in most oil fields for merly ran to waste. It's called gasoline. But if it went into the tank of your car in its normal state, you'd never be charged with speeding. It is much too rich for any motor's blood. So it's not used straight as gasoline but to give soul to certain stuffed-shirt gasolines which look imposing but lack wham. It saves them from blighted careers by the same blending process which rescued it from a life of outstanding nselessness. By combining wisdom with waste through long experi ment and complicated develop ment petroleum science, has, in the manufacture of "natural gasoline," once more made something out of nothing. It has created another of the oil industry's many contributions of titans which help do the work of the world. Standard Oil Company of California Why Make J&vc Jdfie . . .

A. Wolke In Grants Pass. Miss Sparrow, with her -mother. Mrs. Alex Spsrrow, has spent some time travelling In Europe and visited In Italy during the majority ot the trip. "Mussolini la the Idol ot all Ital ians. Bounding - with energy and small of - stature, he brings to mind the famed Coral can Napoleon Bona parte," Miss Spsrrow told her au dience, The two Medford women were In Rome at the time of Adolph Hitler's visit with Mussolini. "The German dictator Is a very ordinary looking man and a very tired one a great contrast to the Itallsn leader," Miss Spsrrow said. A great deal of credit Is due II duos for his treatment of Italy, cleaning up the population by sending beggars and convicts to fight his wars In Spain, the speaker said. An amusing psrt of the propaganda received In this country la th method In which the movie news reels are continuously showing enor mous, cheering throngs greeting their leaders. In almost every lnstan-e those cheer sections are staged and sometimes the leaders are not even on the scene, the crowds "hailing" end saluting an Imaginary hero, Miss Sparrow said. She believes that Italy's friendship with Germany Is merely a matter of expediency, that at least the two nations hate each other, the Italians being of a Latin blood and the Ger mans Teutonic. .... Miss Sparrow was unsympathetic towards the Chechoslovakian people. The Czech political government was created at the close of the World war and now the original countries want the lands again. " Hungary con tinues to fly her flags at half mast mourning the areas she wss forced to elve Czechoslovakia at the close of the war, Miss Sparrow told tha listeners.
