Pa., April 11 (UP) One hundred years will see exhaustion of every oil, copper, lead, zinc, silver and gold deposits now known to tin world, in the opinion of Dr. Benjamin L. Miller, head of the department of geology at Lehigh University here. Miller admits however that other fields probably will be discovered before the known supply is exhausted but adds “there is a limit td the number an dit is probable that the decline in production before many years will become noticeable.” "We can only speculate as to what effect this will have upon the civilization of a few hundred years hence,” Miller says. He declares that despite the often repeated assertion that the world, when all other natural resources are exhausted, will be able to meet its power requirements from water power that such is not the case. "Although many people believe that future generations will be able to depend on water power almost entirely when the available supply of fuel, wjrich is converted into power is exhausted, this is true only to avery small degree,” Miller said. "A survey of the entire available water supply in Not th America shows that even when this is developed to its fullest extent it will only be able to supply between 10 and 12 per cent of the demand, after allowing for a very eonser vative increase in the rate of consumption." The world s coal supply will be exhausted in 400 years, Miller estimates. Dr. Miller declares that during the Ijjst 25 years mre of the natural resources of the world have been ex hausted that during all the other 500,000 years of existence of the human race. o — MANY MORE ARE REPORTED DEAD; DAMAGE GREAT <CONTIXfUEI> FKOM P4GB ONE) nado struck J’iecdale and then con tinned over Smith Chapel before spreading. Rain and hail which follow’ed in the . wake of the twister rendered high ways virtually impassable and searchers proceded on foot through the darkness seeking dead and injured in the debris'. •Te force of the storm was everywhere in evidence. Buildings at Guion were reported leveled. Swifton and the neighboring sections of Sneeds, 4% miles north, were cut off completely by the rain and hail. Meager reports said 25 houses were demonlished there. Telephone headquarters here reported virtually no lines to the storm area and all estimates of the number of injured were mere guesses. Even the number oi dead in the various communities was varying constantly as reports were confirmed and denied. —o GOVERNOR IS EMBARRASSED (CONTINUED FROM I’AGK ONE) was headed for the governor's 'office this morning. ifcwaS said at his home. He insisted there had been no discusison of Fogarty at a board meeting last week at which the governor was present. Glenn W. Harrison, Attica, another trustee, declared. "1 never heard Fogarty’s name mentioned in connection with the institution.' A. F Miles, present superintendent, who also attended the meeting, said nothing had been said about changing officials. Miles was believed highly satisfactory to the present board. Leslie admitted he had discussed prison matters with Fogarty when the latter conferred with him last week but asserted he had made him no definite offer. Although Fogarty announced at Chicago that his resgnation as Cook comity warden was sotety to accept the Indiana job, there were indications friction had developed between him and Sheriff John E. Traeger, who took office Jan. 1. —a—— o Watch ths Man The man you are dealing with is always more important than the -ea. yon are trying to make with him.--The American Magazine.
