'HUNT FORNEW OIL " FIELDS ADVOCATED British Economist Believes . Great Sources May Yet Be Discovered. By the Associated Press. LONDON, February 11.—Intensive operations in exploration and develop- ment of oil lands, were urged by Georsge Howell, publicist and economist, in 2 recent address In this city. He was of the opinion that vast new petroleum fields might be found and given to mankind by the *“industrial trium- virate—the geologist, the chemist and the business man.” Desert lands, the tropics and even regions rear the poles must be search- ed, he declared, in_the quest of oil, upon which is based the development manifold industrial activities. He said the northern regions of Canada were being thoroughly_explored, and added the flanks of the Himalayas and the Antilles presented interesting prospects for the petroleum technolo- Eist. The subject of petroleum is keenly interesting to the British public, but Sir Charles Anglo-Persian ‘Company. warning in an address at Newc: on-Tyne_the other day that develop- ment of the world’s oil resources should be_marked by amity between nations. He made the principal ad- dress at _the launching of the tanker British Viscount, and in the course of his remarks sai + “If each country devotes its energies and brains chiefly to the supply of its own markets, it will have quite encugh to do to occupy the energies of its oil men, and will make quite enough profit to satisfy any reason- able aspirations. “No one country can hope to develop satistactorily the resources and meet the demands of the whole world.

Let us get rid of these petty and selfish jealousies and recognize that oil now plays a far too important part in the welfare of every nation for it. or any preponderating part of it, to be under the control of any ome country or group of oil men.” PLAN FOR DIRECT TRADING FROM FARM TO CONSUMER Association Believes Co-Operative Stores Need Only Efficient Man- agers and Promoters. CLEVELAND, Ohio, February 11.— Recommendations for the . establish- ment of direct trading for farm pro- ducers to city consumers were being considered today by the All-American Co-operative Congress, representing farm organizations and labor unions meeting in conference here. Warren S. Stone, chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers, vice chairman of the confer- ence, in an address before the meet- ing last night urged training of young men and women in the colleges 4 and universities of the country for positions as promoters and managers of co-operative stores. The reason many co-operative stores have not Succeeded, he said, is because of a lack of proper management and a shortage of trained men and women. It is expected that the congress ‘will recommend the establishment of courses in co-operative buying _and selling in the state universities. Leg- islation may_also be recommended permitting the establishment of credit unfons or ple’s banks,” enabling § farmers orkers in cities to se- cure credit in time of stress. Frederic C. Howe, former commis- sioner of immigration, urging estab- lishment of people’s banks through- out the country, criticised the present banking system. “One reason for the . unemployment of the country,” Howe ' sald, “is that deposits of the people have been used not to employ men in this ceuntry, but have been sent abroad and used to exploit other . eountries.” Mr. Stone urged farmers to organ- 4ze for political action, “to elect their and defeat their enemies, as * labor has done.” —_— CAPT.
