Mendenhall, chief geologist of the United States geological survey, has shattered the administration's last defense for leasing the Teapot Domefnaval oil re serve to private interests. High government officials insist that privately owned oil wells in the Teapot Dome vicinity are draining the naval oil reserve and that this con dition justified private exploitation of government oil lands that have been set aside for the nave's future use.

"If it were desired to maintain an undergroud storage of oil for the navy," said Mr. Mendenhall, "and if the sole reason for leasing the re serve was because there was danger that the oil would be withdrawn by wells outside the reserve, the leasing was unjustified." Wells on adjacent land could drain only that part of the reserve which had been incorporated as a protecting area, the witness declared. The out ride wells, he estimated, would drain a strip no wider tfiat 660 feet on the edge of the greater area included in the reserve.

MINE OWNERS PROS PER London, England.—^Organized min ers are publishing remarkable statis tics in defense of their demand for higher wagesf It is shown that while profits last year jumped 236 per cent wages were advanced but 17 per cent This wage advance is based on the amount paid during that period.. Ai the number of men employed increas ed during the year, the miners show that the true increase in wages wa$ but 5.18 per cent. ONE ALLEGIANCE Is All That Ladies' Garment Workers' Union Permits New York.—The general executive board of the International Ladies Garment Workers' Union made shon work of an appeal by 11 members of Chicago locals who were evpelled be cause they belonged to the communist trade union educational league. The unionists held that the accused could not divide their allegiance. In' sustaining the expulsion, the ex ecutive board's appeal committee ca'ls attention to rulings by the board thnt membership in the trade union edu (Sational league "is an act prohibited by our constitution that it is «n or ganization of the same trade, and that it is, in fact, a dual union. "The appellants admitted member ship in the trade union educational league. They refused to take advan tage of the opportunity given them to sever their relations with that organ ization. In fact, they are still mem bers of that organization, as evidenced by their own replies to questions put to them by the appeal committee: "The appellants have, therefore, demonstrated their disregard for the voluntary discipline of our organiza tion, their contempt for the laws of our international and their clear and final refusal comply with rata* and ge 5 108 North Third St. z 318-322 South Second regulations" of our organization. "They simply prefer membership in the trade union educational league to holding membership Jn the i. L. G. W. U._ "The appellants naturally have the full fredom to choose the organiza tion best suited to their tastes and principle. They can not, however, un der such circumstances, expect to hold membership in the I. L. G. W. U. if preference is given by them to a dual organization of the" trade." CO-OPS CONFER The Ralston Paint Co. i&t Plan Now Is to Extend Activities East St. Louis, 111.—Co-operators declare that the annual convention of the central states co-operative whole sale society, held in this city, will prove a mile stone in the development of the co-operative movement of this continent. A large number of co-op. Societies were represented at the convention, which adopted a broad educational program. Emphasis was placel on the need for intensive education among the thousands of men and women in Illinois minin gtowns. The revised constitution of the society places it entirely in the hands of af filiated organizations. In his report A. W. Warinner, act ing manager of the society, recom mended the training of men and wom en to understand the fundamentals of the Rochdale co-operative system that competent managers for these societies may be developed. It was also urged that co-operative educa tional and social activities be carried on in the various communities. PATRONAGE IS VOLUN TARY Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.—-The public's patronage of a business place is "entirely voluntary," ruled Suprem* Court Justice Ives in dismissing plea of a cafe owner for $2,000 dam ages against striking waiters,, who picketed his place. The court refused to accept the an ti-union theory that a business man's patronage can be protected by the in junction process when threatened by organized workers. Justice Ives laid down the common sense dictum that customers can lawfully cease their patronage at any moment, and that the waiters have the right to induce such stoppage of patronage "in an effort to advance the legitimate in terests of themselves and other mem bers of the union." A GOODJHING Steel Plants Aided By Short Work Day New York —B. C. Forbes, financial writer, declares that the steel indus try has been aided by the short hour day, despite Judge Gary's dreary prophecy. "The steel people," said Mr. Forbes, "couldn't grant workers the eight hour day, you well remember, because it would almost ruin them. Within a few months after public opinion forced the United State steel corpo ration and others to do away with the iniquitous 12-hour day, Judge Gary, head of the corporation, announces an increase in its common stock dividend. The HH i.- -o* 4 y y y WONT LOWER RATES Washington. Railroad executives representing nearly all the nation's large railway systems, have notified the interstate commerce commission that they are unable to grant a volv: untary reduction in freight rates on gi*ain for export, which President Coolidge recently suggested. The rail officials state that a reduc tion in grain rates would not benefit American farmers, principally be cause Canadian roads would immedi ately follow the policy of cutting rates to the seaboard, as they have in the past. AUTO IS DEADLY Chicago.—Carelessness by pedes trians and drivers caused 31,604 fatal and non-fatal accidents in the United States during 1922 at a minimum 5 nancial loss of $13,509,078, according to an estimate by the Chicagp safety commission.
