Ger niany'a share In the world's pro duction of oil is but 0.05 per cent, which barely covers fivo per cent of the country's requirements, said Prof. F. Schondorf before the German Society of Chemists. After Germany lost Its oil wells In Alsace-I^orralne, with their an nual yield of 70.000 tons, the wells of Wleie. In Hanover, turned out I o be of greatest promise. For the first time existing derricks were replaced by a regular pit hav ing a depth of 825 feet. With a single pit these wells now turn out the name production as with fi00 derricks formerly, and far surpass the Alsatian output of pre-war days.

PEARTREE ROAD AGAIN IS CRUX OF CONTROVERSY Members of Pasquotank Highway Commission But tling Vigorously Over Al ternative Routings WIIJ. MEET SATURDAY Messrs.

It I? to bo threshed out. If poaslble. at a ?poclal meeting o i the Com-j misalon Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. Tho liKht over the road hingos I about tho question whother It shall run acrosa tho farm of Ehr Inghaus A: Small In a diagonal di 'rectlon. or whother It shall foi 1 low two sharp curvea in the prea ont road fronting the farma of T. I L. and C. E. Overman. Tho Com mission is divided about equally on the question, with Chalrmau i Scott favoring the diagonal routo eliminating tho two curves. ! Tho matter came up at tho reg ular meeting of the Highway Com minaion Tuoadsy, after the Com I mission had decided to advertise for bids for the paving of Salom and Eslip roads. In Salem Town ,ahlp. to be received at the regu lar moeting Tuesday, November 3 The Salem road Is about a mil* and a half long, and runa from Weekavllle PoatofTlce to Salem Baptist Church. The Esllp roai runs about three miles from a point on the Weeksvllle Highway a few hundred yards east of ! Weekavlllo I'ostofflce, to the vi cinity of I'nlon Methodist Church. Lotting of those two contracts will I conclude tho prenent "feeder road" program of the Commission. Tho latest light over Peartree Itnad opened with the offering of m resolution by Commissioner N. 18. L- itrv for the adopllon of what Is termed floute 3. following the curve* past the Overman farma. Chairman Scott declined to enter tain the motion, baaing hia objec tion on the abaenco of Commla sloner J. N. Williams, of Newland. Mr. I?eary Insisted on putting It to u vote anyway, and a ballot was tak<>n, in which Commlasloner l/^ary, J. W. Perry and J. E. l,ano voted for Route 3. and Commis sioners H. F. Sample and H. C. Meads cast their ballota against It Chairman Scott then insisted on recording his vote aa a member of the Commlaalon. Ho sided with Messrs. Ssmple and Meads. Count ing his vote, the ballot stood tied. 3-3. on the question. Both sldoa In the controversy are banking heavily on tho sup port of Commlaaloner Williams, ; tho abaentee at Tueaday'a warm session. Messrs. Leary. Perry and ? I,ane point to the fact that he vot ed for their route aeveral months i ago. when tho matter was flrat ! agitated. Messrs. Scott. Sample ' and Meads, contend In equally i vigorous fashion that he has "seen Ih" liRht." and will vote with them | when the queatlon comes up again. LEGION FIGHTING ABOUT MITCHKI L i Omaha. Oct. 8. ?

That and Waller Johnson's pre dominance in t lie open in k Maine are tin- rardinai points when one analyses the situation.
