SQUANDERING OIL WEALTH.
400* MORE BABY SHOES.
USELESS RECORD BREAEMC.
WILL SHE DIE?
Mr. Teazle, president of New Jcr
iey Standard Oil, warns oil men that
they ar? cutting their own throats.
This '?'.jnrry is treating the nation's
oil wraith as uniafriligently as front
iersmen treated thv herds of bison.
The bisons soon vanished.
Oil is actually being sold for less
ih?n i! costs to pr^uce, cheerful for
leers, but it will not last.
Millions are spent dewiraing new
? !!* to increase competition while
r companies are carrying S K).000,000
'(.ircls of oil stored above ground
i an annual cost, loss and waste of
$130,000,000. . ?
The country's national oil wealth
~y'l? not merely private wealth.
it is a great national amt and
a way should be f< :md to give oil
production some national control and
stop waste.
You are tokl many things about
prohibition, for and against. R. H.
Davidson^ writing from CoroiTado
Beach, California, asks, "Do you
chance to know that the tale of chil
dren's shoes has increased 400 per
cent per annum since prohibition
came?" . <? '
Everybody will agree that 400 per
cent ii*?n fa* dhAdrea, com
bined with fiugrr <??% SatJ* de

Florida at a speed gnatar than 106
rnOee an hoar. His qdkg car. the
"Mystery S." looking Bkea auWa

record by .ten miles an hour.
It's an achievement interesting,
but not useful. No automobile can
go USEFULLY 166 mUes an hour,
or 100 miles an hour.
y Up in the air, where the road is
wide, is the place for real speed.

Now New York mw have to de

Having told Asiatics that they may
