NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, JULY 23, 1917. SPIES IN LABOR CIRGLES New York Offiials Take Steps to Root Ont Traitors New York, July-23 —The American Federation of Labor and the Central Federated Union have taken drastic steps to rid these organizations of German spies, known to be operating on the east side in an effort to create anti-conscription riots. The matter is in the hands of President Samuel Gompers and Secretary Frank Mor- rison of the federation and Secretary Ernest Bohm of the Central Federat- ed Union. The officials of the union met in secret conference Saturday might at the Continental hotel, but nothing was known concerning the meeting until yesterday, when Mr. Bohm issued a statement in which he called attention to the gravity of the sit- uation. .It then became known that at the conference a resolution was passed calling for the Americaniza- tion of labor in Greater New York. 4nother conference will be held at the same place next Saturday anht. The labor chiefs believe that 'the trouble is being fomented largely through the People's Peace Council, an organization opposed to conscrip- tion, and a ' most vigorous cam- paign is being waged against the or- ganization, whose members include many connected with the unions.. Just what steps will be taken was not made plain last night, but is was ad- mitted that the labor unions would be rid of German symptahizers and peace advocates in & short time. Before the next conference is held agents of the unions will prepare an exhaustive report, showing just what is being done by the People's Peace Council, and giving the names of those most actively concerned. in ‘stirring up trouble. Mr. Bohm admfitted last night that many spies are working up anti- draft sentiment on the east side, par- ticularly among the foreign-born res- idents, and that these men are being closely watched. MOODUS HOME GUARD PREVENTS LYNCHING Mob Was Leading Man to Tree for Shooting Proprietor of Hotel. Moodus, July 23.—Members of the Home Guard were called on yester- day to rescue Philip Matinuck from an excited group of men who were rushing him, with a rope around his neck, to a tree after he had shot Louis Grollman, proprietor of a hotel here. Grollman’s wounds are not considered serious. Matinuck’s wife, who left him about two years ago, taking the child with her, works at the hotel. Ma- tinuck went there, demanding to see the child, and, according to the au- thorities, shot Grollman when the latter tried to force him to leave. Matinuck, after the shooting, was seized by hotel attendnts and others, a rope was thrown around his neck and he was being taken to a tree when rescued. ‘/ FREE CONDITIONING CLASS FOR MEN IN SELECTIVE DRAFT Capable Leaders Efficient Training for Active Service Health Instruction Sign Up!

Inquire at Office OPERATING [ STOP JOY RIDING AND CONSERVE 0IL Standard 0l Head Issues Warn- ing-to American Public Wasghington, July 23.—In an effort to bring about the greatest possible conservation of gasoline stocks now on hand, and stimulate producers of oil to increase their output of petro- leum. A. C. Bedford, president of the Standard Oil company, has issued an authorized statement of warning to the nation. Pojinting out that while more new wells are being drilled, thers has been no Increase in production over the vear before and that the nation is using. 35,000,000 more barrels of oil than it is producing, Mr. Bedford as- sertg that if the United States govern- ment is to obtain the oil that is nec- essary to a successful prosecution of the war it will be necessary for users of automobiles to eliminate pleasure riding and for the public to economize in every possible way in the use of gasoline. Mr. Bedford's statement was issued in his capacity as chairman of the committee on petroleum of the ad- visory commission of the Council of National Defense, on behalf of the members of the petroleum committee, and was as follows: “In view of the abnormal condi- tions confronting the nation hy reason of the war, it is peculiarly important that the country should understand the serious situation now prevailing in the petroleum industry. “This country is producing crude oil at the rate of about 300,000,000 barrels a year, but it is using it at the rate of 335,000,000 barrels a year. The amount of crude oil in storage, all grades, May 1, 1917, was 165,658,- 797 barrels. The country is ahsorb- ing the entire current production and drawing very rapidly upon its reserve supplies, “The rapid development of the automobile is largely responsible for present conditions. In 1910 thers were 400,000 automobiles in use in the United States; in 1916 the num- ber was 2,350,000. Today there are more than 4,000,000 cars, demanding over 40,000,000 barrels of gasoliue n vear. Other uses of gasoline and ofl are expanding upon an enormous scale. Demand Outstrips Supply. “The demand for oil products is greater than the supply of crude oil. Because of the demand the price of crude oll has risen thus stimulating more and more producers to drill new wells. Though this drilling has been going on with great aggressiveness— because the cost of drilling is much greater than in the past and the total successes fewer than ever—the re- tuvns from such efforts are not as satisfactory as they were a year ago. In the first three months of this year 4,701 wells were completed, yielding an initial production per day of 344,- 876 barrels. In 1915, 1,711 new wells yielded 849,010 barrels. “In other words, though thsre have been almost three times as riany new wells drilled in 1917 as in 1915, the initial. production . is considerably less than in 1915, The drilling of wells is still going on, but thus far there has been no increase in pro- duction over last year of the year be- fore. “The meaning of the foregoing is this: If our government is to have the petroleum it will need to prose- cute the war successfully and supply all necessities growing out of the war, two steps will have to be taken, namely: “I. The public will have to econo- mize in the use of gasoline. Suffi- cient gasoline should be available to provide for all the normal ises of automobiles. But pleasure riding should be curtailed. People should look upon their automobiles as neces- sities to be used only when needed. Not a gallon of gasoline should be used in the present emergency except for some useful end. & “2. Every oil producer in the coun- try should be encouraged as a patri- otic effort to secure the utmost possi- ble output' of crude oil. The present expense of drilling new wells is very great and increasing, and the results are often discouraging. But there is oil to be had if producers in the bil ‘business will redouble their efforts to get it out of the ground. ; “I have the utmost confidence in the spirit with which the government will meet this problem in the matter of the price, which is now being in- vestigated by the Federal Trade com- mission. With proper eéconomy on the part of the public, and with suf- ficient co-operation and effort on the part of ofl producers, there should be ample oil to supply the needs of our government, of our allies, of in- dustry in this country and for do- mestic use.” Pay an Indiana truck.—advt. OUTTING THE PROFITS. Parker Shirt Co. Officials Glad to Do Something for Unde Sam. The Parker Shirt Co. factory will close on Friday night of this week and will open again on August 6, This is the usual custom of shutting down to provide a vacation for every one employed there. C. J. Parker, president and treas- urer of the copcern, in remarking upon the big order for soldiers’ shirts just recelved from the gov- ernment, states that: ‘“We will mako little or no profit on the order, but we took it because we feel it our patriotie duty to help clothe the sol- diers, and also because it will pro- vide enoush work to keep the fac- tory busy the rest of the summer.” The Parker Shirt Co. has con- tracted to make 8,000 dozens of army shirts, the material to b8 furnished by the govesmment.

Immediately upon the declaration of war, the whole Bell System was placed unreservedly at the disposal of the Government: ‘The goveérnment’s telephone needs be- come at once of paramount importance, to which every private requirement was necessarily: subordinated. : Since the war, the demands upon our service due to industrial and commercial activities, have been unpr dented, and are constantly increasing. military = establishment As Our grows, the Govenment's need for telephone ‘service will increase and™ must be met.
