Texas has an anti-trust law and has one great, and several small, so-called “independent” oil con- cerns. Texas has large producing petroleum fields of its own and is next door to the immense Okla- homa fields. If the arbitrary advance in the price of gasoline cannot be prevented in Texas, it cannot be controlled anywhere. It is an outrageous and unwarranted lexy of a tax on the automobile own- ers of the United States. It is Shylock Rockefeller demanding his full pound of flesh—and getting it. There’s but one remedy in sight; a readjust- ment of automobile carburetors to permit the use of a substitute fluid. Here is a real fine and dandy opportunity for Henry Ford to use his remarkable ingenuity and superfluous wealth to some purpose.

A FINE TEST ECRETARY DANIELS is accused of “lying down to” the armor trust because he seems to favot heavily-armed battleships rather than fast, light-armored battle-cruisers, to which latter the naval construction board gives preference. Whether a secretary or a naval. construction officer is or is not in cahoots with the armor trust can always be easily and definitely discovered. Does he favor Uncle Sam's making the armor? You can safely bet your last dollar that no armor trust owns the fellow who truthfully answers yes to this question. THE BELLIGERENTS, generally, celebrated Christmas quietly in the trenches. Why?
