DIES OF INJURY
CAUSED BY BIKE
Ashland, Dec. 11 (Spl.)
Funeral services for Mrs. W, F.
Knox, who died in a local hospi
tal at 0 p. m. Saturday from
injuries she suffered when
struck by a bicycle, ridden by
John Bergstrom, 16, Friday
night, will be held in the Meth
odist church at 2:30 p. m. Wed
nesday. The Litwiller funeral
home is in charge.
District Attorney Frank J.
Newman and County Coroner
Frank Perl were to be in Ash
land this afternoon to establish
the facts of the fatal accident,
which occurred at 7:30 p. m.
Friday in front of 125 Wimer
street. It was announced that
an inquest might be held.
Mrs. Knox, wife of the former
owner of the Knox Lumber
company, died of a basal skull
fracture without regaining con
sciousness. According to Ash
land city police report of the
accident, she was walking in
the middle of Wimer street to
avoid the muddy sidewalk and
was struck by young Bergstrom,
riding his bicycle down the
steep street. The impact oc
curred at a dark spot in the
road, between corner street
lights. The boy told police he
didn't see the woman until she
fell beneath his bicycle.
Neither the bicycle rider nor
Mrs. Knox were carrying lights,
police said. They added that
the accident happened in a very
dark section of the steep, slip
pery street.
Ironically, Mrs. Knox was on
an errand of mercy when she
was struck. Well-known for her
many acts of kindness, she was
on her way to see a youngster
whom she had learned was
a lone "in his home. She planned
to take the boy back to her own
residence where he could be
looked after.
Mrs. Knox was born in Still
water, Minn., on Oct. 6, 1882.
Besides her husband, she is sur
vived by four daughters: Mrs,
Mary E. Adams of Tustin, Cal.,
Dorothy N Margaret Louise
and Charlotte May, all at home
and one son, Walter B.t at home,

They don't
need oil on
the moon
it's dead
UP TO a few minutes ago,
no poet we know about
had written a poem in praise
of air a rather basic item in
the process of breathing. Shake
speare and his fellow craftsmen
have insisted they couldn't exist
without Chloe, Daphne, and
many another blonde, brunette,
or redhead minx. Well, they
couldn't even sigh without air.
Petroleum is another unsung
necessity. It's very likely we
couldn't live today without pe
troleum and the hundreds of
services it provides. Obviously,
it was once possible. But thar
was before oU had filtered into
every form of life. Today the
difficulties would be extreme.
Petroleum powers automo
biles and goes into their lac
quer. It fuels airplanes and it
in the "ink" for skywriting. It
shuttles looms and is a part
of finished wool and rayon. It's
in medicines, beauty creams,
candy, candles, floor wax, nail
polish, and coffee. It even he--to
preserve eggs.
Through long years, petiv,
leum has become vital to al
most everything. If bereft of it,
the' world would stop almost
as suddenly as if kissed by a
comet grow dead as the moon.
Knowing this, the industry re
alizes its responsibilities to
seek future reserves, by explor
ation and research for benefit
of a world which needs petro
leum as it does air.

tions when he rose to speak.
Almost a third of Holsti's
speech was taken up with fling
ing back quotations from for
mer Russian Foreign Commis
sar Maxim Litvinoff's speech
before the assembly two years j
ago, condemning aggression in
an attempt to obtain league aid
for the Spanish republicans.
Slowly and dramatically, the
Finnish delegate concluded:
'Gentlemen, do your duty.
The Finnish people is doing its
duty toward the entire civilized ;
world and it is paying with
that most precious thing of all
its own blood."
At the opening session, Karl
J. Hambro of Norway, newly
elected president of the assem
bly, told delegates they must
do their utmost to halt the
Russian-Finnish war.
"We believe the , civilized
world, which has already ex
pressed its great sympathy for
us, will not let us fight alone
against an enemy superior in
numbers," Holsti said in his
address.
"Our position as the front
line of western civilization per
mits us to expect active aid
on the part of all civilized na
tions. "To all of these nations the
Finnish people today appeal."
Referring to the "people's"
regime proclaimed in Moscow
as the government of Finland,
he flung back Litvinoff's words
of two years ago:
"The recognition of rebels as
a legitimate government is it
self an intervention on their
behalf."
