Dr Robert E. Wilson, board chairman of Standard Oil Company of In diana, warns. Only by reducing now oil burner installations to the pre-war level and adopting strict conservation measures can a shortage be avert ed. Wilson said. Even so, an anticipated live per cent increase in petroleum supplies may not be enough to prevent a shortage if there are serious strikes in basic industries or a severe win ter, he said.

Speaker of the House of Repre sentatives since Jan. 3. 1947, and right now next in legal succession to the presidency of the United Slates, Martin is in many ways an Horatio Alger character come to life. He is the poor boy who won fame and some fortune. . To begin at the beginning: Joseph William Martin, Jr.. was born Nov. 3, 1884, in North Attle bnro. Mass. His father was a Scotch-English blacksmith of meag er means. His mother was Irish, .loc was the eldest of eight chil dren. His chief virtue as a speaker is homely earnestness and a somewhat urgent sincerity. A miictlv magnetic personality,! coupled with a dimpling grin that discloses highly irregular teeth, help him put across his points. Despite the political height to which Martin has risen, there is no important legislation or move ment to which his name may be attached. Some critics say he has not been a forceful leader ana that he cot where he is purely by. being regular and never being ! caught out on a limb. j i Despite the hurly-burly of his j house duties and his almost endless contacts with people. Joe some- ; t mics appears lonely. He works I long hours, and late afternoons will I find him trudging alone through darkened cpitol corridors to meet the chauffeur and long black lim- j ousine that go with his office. He'll offer "a ride downtown" to any ac quaintance he sees, but often as not ! will ride off in solitary splendor: to his bachelor quarters in the se-; date Hay Adams house across the small park from the White House. ! Although reverent. Joe has j never formally affiliated with any ' church. Soon after he became , speaker a member suggested to him that the House chaplain's daily prayers were running rather long and probably could be shortened. "Why, no," the speaker is re ported to have replied. "I rather like them. This is the only church I have, you know." Joe doesn't smoke, drink or dance. He is a bachelor. Money was not free in the Mar tin household, and Joe had to get out and scramble as soon as he (Continued on P?ge Five) Presenting In Pictures the 1949 FORD CAR OF THE YEAR IP I 4f-zrs :JwfaatM" SSnew Ford four-door sedan for revoluuo n. , - morc visibility, and provides neailv -J pu . ,irirlrr roomier 1949 is lower, wiacr, r - M 1.
