However, before sueh an lppoinruieut could lie made, it is necessary for this city to have a imputation of five thousand or over. This will necessitate the taking of a census in Price which the council has authnri.cd and it will lie taken at once. K. S. llors-,leMrs. Jameson, Airs. Uhnrles Averill and Mrs. J. V.

Americas oil supply, the backbone of national defense and once the envy of the world, will be exhausted in seven yean at the present rate of consumption, President CoMidge will be informed by his oil conservation commission in its official report, it was learned today. So alarming is the situation that the president will be earnestly advised to recommend that use of oil be immediately abandoned and coal and water xwer electricity employed wherever INissible in all industries. Appointed by Coolidge at the time of the Teapot Dime oil scandal to make a complete survey of the oil resources of the country and to formulate a national nil policy the oomrrtis-sio-n has now practically completed its work. The United States is using oil and lielroleum products at the rate of barrels s year, and eonsuni-tio- n is rapidly inereasing the commission finds. America must cut down its annual consumption ot 350,000,000 barrels or less than half if the situation is to he saved, the commission BULL ELK EXTREMELY WARY, believes. SAYS ONE RANGER Increased demands for big fast motors by autoists who want to get there EPIIRAIM, Dec. 1. Elk hunters in a , is found by the commison the Manti forest have learned a lot sion hurry lie one cause that threatens oil to shout the habits of elk. Many of the disaster. An appeal will in all probahunters went out with the idea tliat lie made to the mechanical gen bility elk huning was much the same as it would be to go out into the fields and shoot rattle. They found, however, that bull' elk are extremely wary much more so than deer. Ranger Christensen of Neplii is authority for bulls the statement that ninety-fou- r and five cow elk have been killed on the Nebo division of the Uintah forest np nntil November 29th. The elk were in fair condition and are reported to have been scattered, some of them have perhaps been driven on to adjacent forests. The cows killed during the hunt have most of them been confiscated and sold to the highest bidders by state game wardens. On the Manti forest four fine specimens were killed the first morning in Muddy Canyon and sinee that time four more animals have been taken while four others, one of them a cow, have been killed above Ferron and Castle Dale. Qnite a number of bull elk were found in Manti Canyon and these animals were in exceptionally fine condition, however, due to the depth of the snow, about the only chanee to follow them was on enowshoes so that comparatively few of the Manti herd have been taken. One bull elk was killed east of Salina and three hunters from Salt Lake City killed three cow elk near Gooseberry after an unfruitful search of three or four days for bulls. The hunters from Castle Dale reported seeing large numbers of bulls and found it extremely difficult to get next to them. It is reported that tire elk killed by Wilford Wintch east of Salina weighed six hundred pounds with the entrails drawn. It la also reported that an elk weighing seven hundred pounds with entrails drawn, had been killed in Mnddy Canyon. 800,-(100,0- ius to devise a sjicedy but smallcd motor that will consume less gas. President Coolidge will, it is anticipated, be urged to apieal to the country to pvt along more upon coal and water jmwer electricity. The navy and merchant marine are rapidly becoming oil burning, and the commission that national protection requires the maintenance of an oil supply for naval demands. An effort to discourage homeowners from installing oil heaters, will in all probability lie made. The known oil suiqily of the I'nited States esimble of being refined by present methods ir believed by the commission to be aisiut 5,550,()K),(HHJ barrels. The retirement of oil as a commercial fuel would probably double or nearly double the coal output of Carbon county, which is one of the largest industries in Utah. It would seem in view of the rcXirt of the committee that immediate remedial legislation will lie introduced and witlrits introduction coal contracts will be promptly entered into throughout the markets supplied by the Utah coal fields. This is a nutter of but a few days and ntpans a great hnoni to Utah and particularly Carbon county. Any increase in coal demand will bring a increase in our populstion and in proisrty values, so the rcsrt of the presidents oil conservation rominission is the best piece of news that has reached this community in some time. es to atrsightoi out.
