president of the Standard Oil com
pany of New Jersey, declared today
' in a formal statement. He expressed
he opinion that the oil .Industry
would weather the present downward
trend, which would not last long.
"The present disrupted market,"
he said, "resulted from the offering

Except for comparatively small
shipments from gulf coast ports, lit
tie mid continent crude oil is being
received here. This is used largely
for lubricating.
While Mr. Teagle admitted the
present situation was precarious for
rome of the smaller refining com
panies he expressed confidence that
the oil Industry as a whole "would

two or three similar periods of over
rroduction, including the Cushing
crushers of 1913, and that the Indus
fry had successfully weathered all of
them.
SCORING FOR ELLIS
ISLAND BY BRITISH
London Papers Declare Government
Justified in Its Strictures
Claim It Is Unsanitary.
London, Aug. 16. The British
government has been Justified in mak
ing complaints on behalf of many
Englishmen against the conditions at
Ellis island in the opinion of most of
the afternoon newspapers, who com
ment this afternoon on Ambassador
Geddes report of his visit to the is
land. The Star admits the difficulty
of handling large mixed crowds, say
ing no excuse can be offered for ac
commodations so dirty and in some
cases so foul that only a government
paper would be allowed to print the
details.
"Clean Immigrants and dirty ones
the gentle and coarse, the honest and
criminal are crowded together in cir
cumstances extremely odious to the
better kind," says the Star. "These
things occur under the shadow of the
statute of liberty. They are to thous
ands the first taste of that freedom
which is the boast of 'God's country.'
What a pity that America's moral
lecturers to the naughty effete of
Europe have to cross such a dirty
doorstep."
New York, Aug. 16. Although re
fusing to comment directly on the
charges made by Sir Auckland Ged
des in a report assailing conditions
at Ellis island, Robert C. Tod, former
commissioner of Immigration, today
intimated that he did not consider
Sir Auckland's criticism in the main
Justified. He admitted that Improve
ments at the island were possible,
but apparently did not agree with
Ambassador Geddes' sweeping con
demnation of overcrowding and un
sanitary conditions.

of the Badwater river. This "shoo

only about five cars. If the seven

Kilpatrick Brothers of Beatrice
have the contract for constructing
the seven miles of new railroad nec

assembled a great force of men and
machines and are now hampered by
the scarcity of horse feed. Agents
for the contractors and railroad are
now In the field trying to buy baled
alfalfa and oats for use on this job.
There Is a scarcity of baled alfalfa
and while there is plenty of oats in
the country the amount hauled to
market has been small.
"When the public takes Into con
sideration the losses of a railroad
during a year it will understand that
some surplus, for an emergency is
necessary," says Mr. Flynn. In the
past year the Burlington had the
Chicago fire, a great amount of loss
from minor floods at various parts
of the system and this crowning
flood los3 in Wyoming. The total
reaches up in the millions."
Mr. Flynn was much pleased over
the outlook for corn. He says it is
the best he has ever seen in the state.
At Lincoln he paid a visit to the
yards where an extension is being
i made, which adds materially to the
capacity of the terminal plant. This
work will soon be completed.
COOLIDGE MAKES RE

Washington. Aug. 17. Newspa
per correspondents who met Presi
dent Coolidge today in the second
formal press conference he has held
since he took over the duties of chief
executive wre urged to put a "word
of gladness and hope" into the stories
obtained in the course of the confer

newspaper men with an expression of
thanks to them for having called, Mr.
Coolidge hesitated just as the men
were leaving and said: "As the per
sonal staff of the government you
will. I hope, put a word of gladness
and hope into what you write this
evening."
Feeling that personal delivery adds
force to presidential messages to con
gress, President Coolidge plans to
follow the practice initiated by Presi

dent Harding of presenting more im

the Spillman letter.
"If the " bakers in Omaha alone

OVERLAND RED BIRD
UPHOLDS REPUTATION
Hangs Up Wonderful Gasoline Mile
age Record Down in Texas,
Winning Bet for Owner.
When the owner of an Overland
Red Bird in San Antonio, Tex., casu
ally made the remark that his car
could make thirty miles on one gal-
lone of gasoline, fifty cold iron men
were .called -into -actionby-a-dealer
selling another car in the same class
as the Overland to tell the owner of
the Red Bird that It simply couldn't
be done.
Then the argument started and
these same fifty green backs fresh
from the Government mint went to
work for sweet charity and the jeal
ous dealer is now wondering why in
an idle moment he invited such a
catastrophe to sit upon his troubled
brow. By bringing on the Red Bird
the competitive dealer not only brot
the laugh on himself, but also brot
the whole population of San Antonio
to a realization of just what the Red
Bird can do and admit that this new
model from the Willys-Overland fac
tories at Toledo, Ohio, has the pro
verbial bird's appetite when it comes
to flying on short rations.
A contest was arranged by a well
known newspaper man of San An
tonio and a report of the Red Bird's
performance was published in the
papers of that city. There is a fam
ous run for motor cars in San An
tonio called the "Scenic Loop" that
includes many steep grades, taking
in a nine mile hill on the Fredricks
burg road, the climb to the top of
Krempkaw, Inspiration Point and
many other elevations that test the
powers of any car.
Despite the difficulties encounter
ed the Overland Red Bird, carrying
two people made the circuit and aver
aged more than 32 miles to the gal
lon, while the general opinion pre
vailed that if the trial had been
made on a level run, the mileage ob
tained would have been considerably
greater. All through the run an av
erage speed of twenty-five miles was
maintained.. . and at the finish the
speedometer.; showed a total mileage
of 47 miles Before the Red Bird
started it had made a return trip to
Dallas, and the tank was emptied of
ga: oline and a gallon and one-half of
fuel was put in for the demonstra
tic.i. At the end of the run fully
half a pint of gas was left in the
tai.k. The Red Bird was accompan
iet: on the run by five other cars that
chocked up on the performing quali
ties of the Red Bird throughout the
entire trip, and reported that It was
a narvelloua exhibition of economi
cal performance.
This demonstration is only typical
of what may be expected from the
Rci Bird and other models of the
Overland family that have made an
international reputation for them
selves by similar conquests in Mexico,
Australia, England and Canada.
GETTING DOLLED UP
The front of the store building of
August Bach on lower Main street,
has been given a dolling up that cer
tainly adds very much to the appear
ance of the building and that part of
the city. The work is being looked
after by Harry Kruger and his force
of workmen and the sharp red and

Benson, once a socialist candidate for

Mr. Benson sas-s the statement
was made at a time when the diplo -

aiff and Turkey was at its most acute
stage and rumors of war were heard
on all sides.
"Believing that if war should
come," says Mr. Benson in his book,

Mr. Benson says he did not pub
lish the interview at that time be
cause "I did not wishhis Wall street
friends to have another club to ham
mer him with. He was not then a
political factor and it seemed best
not to provide his industrial enemies
with another weapon. Since then
Ford has become a political factor
and the people are entitled to know
everything he thinks about public af
fair?." "Ford's views on war and peace
have changed radically since the be
ginning of the world war," writes
Mr. Benson. "He told me in 1916
that he would not be in favor of re
sisting even invasion by armed force.
He took the extreme pacifist position.
After America entered the war he
perhaps contributed more to its prose
cution than any other civilian. " He
now believes that we shall be most
likely to have peace if we have the
stronges navy in the world."

Tuning Howls Nightly
Somebody in this town is causing
his fellow radio fans a lot of grief
nearly every night, with his heter-
dyning style of tuning, perhaps un
knowingly to himself, but certainly
not to the rest of us. Remember, ev
ery time you cause your set to "howl"
in tuning, your aerial throws off a
howl that affects every receiving set
in the neighborhood. A little care
exercised by all in tuning will make
it more pleasant for all, especially
this winter when DX receptive condi
tions will be ideal.
Doing the Unselfish Act
Somebody should and doubtless in
the near future will install power
