He is not far from this city, but, ah, he is far from the maddening crowd of Hatfields, and, vs Lee, Mrs. McC S hus are two feuds, mountain and domestic, brought to a tranquil close. Worried When Found.

This was due to change In appropriationa from July 1, 1923, af- fecting all clerks in the 'allotment and disbursing offices under the bu- reau of supplies and accounts. It is Admiral Cowle's aim to settle in_ full with every man who sub- scribed for a liberty bond through the Navy by giving him either a bond or refund check to eover the amount due him. On account of the small personnel in_this office for handling bonds in 1918, arrangement was made with the Treasury Department wherab{ in_the case of a greater portion of the third and fourth loan allotments that were pald in full bonds would be forward- ed upon authorization direct to the subsciiber. So far it has been neces- sary for the Treasury Department to issue 268 duplicate bonds for those which were elther lost or stolen. It is part of the duty of this office to furnish the Treasury Department all information regarding these bonds Which were lost or stclen in the mall, as in the majority of cases Navy mali clerks were found responsibie for the loss, and duplicate bonds cannot be issued until adequate proof of their loss is submitted.

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., July 28.— The Institute of Politice at Willlams College discussed today a variety of problems in international relations. Borls A.

His address, largely historical, pointed out that nine-tenths of the British empire has been added since American independence was declared, and that the whole process could not have taken place but for the lessons taught and the forces released by the loss of America. Subjects of round-table conference begun during the day, in addition to that on the Russian situation, were the league of nations, the influence of racial affinities and differences in re- lation to politics and the conduct of foreign relations under modern demo- cratic conditions.

U.S. T0 PROBE PAC 10 CUT OIL SUPPLY Agreement of 25 Refiners to Shut Down Held Possible Sherman Act Violation. CHICAGO, July 28.—An investiga- tlon to determine if an agreement yesterday of oll men meeting here to shut down twenty-five of the larger ofl refineries of the midcontinent field during August is a combination in restraint of trade in violation of the Sherman anti-trust act, was be- gun today by Edwin A. Olson, United States attorney. Announcement of the investigation was followed by a statement from J. M. Carson, member of the execu- tive committes of the American Oil Men's Assoclation, that any fair in- vestigation would be welcomed. In agreeing to close down the re- fineries the oll men had declared that the action was necessary in order to stabilize the market. Closing down the refineries would remove about 112,000 barrels of gasoline daily from the’ market. Edwin L. Weisle, assistant United States attorney, was ordered by Mr. Olson to conduct the finvestigation. Special attention is to be directed to- ward the question of whether the move is intended to Increase the price of gasoline. Mr. Welsle stated that he would confer immediately with J. P. Rooney, division superin- tendent of the bureau of investiga- tion of the Department of Justice. “If we find that the refiners at- tempt to persuade or coerce other re- finers not represented in the meeting Friday, to follow the action they vot- ed, on, it will constitute a case for our attention under the Sherman an- ti-trust law inasmuch as gasoline and {oll are commodities that must be ship- ed interstate,” Mr. Weisel said. “The aw provides that there shall be no conspiracy to restrain interstate com- merce,” he said. The leading refiners, who adopted Ime shutdown decision’ have called a general meeting of all mid-continent refiners to be held in Kansas City, Mo., July 31 to complete their plans.
