MANY MATTERS MAY GO OVER TO NEW PRESIDENT Short Time Left Wilson to Dispose of Diplomatic Questions Pending. U. S. RELATIONS SET OUT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.—Two months from today Woodrow Wilson walks out of the White House and Warren G. Harding walks in. Unless the expiring Democratic Administration succeeds In clearing up between now and the Inaugural ceremonies on March 4 some of the masses of diplomatic negotiations now pending there will be left to Mr. Harding a horde of diplomatic entanglements, the like of which has seldom, if ever, been faced by anew President. Not only will President Harding, his new Secretary of State and their senatorial colleagues at the oapito! have to undertake the formation of an entire new peace structure from the ashes of the World War, but they will also have to iron out other diplomatic difficulties with nearly all the great powers of the wonJ and many of the smaller ones. SUMMARY OF C. S. RELATIONS. A summary of America’s relations with the rest of the world shows that with: Germany—We are still in a technical state of war. Austria —We are still In a technical state of war. Russia—We have no diplomatic or trade relations and are now deporting the representative of the only Russian government there Is that Is functioning. Mexico—We have not recognized the government of General Obregon, there is no American ambassador in Mexico City, and we are Involved in diplomatic difficulties over the confiscatory features of the Mexican constitution as they affect American Interests. Japan—We are in a serious tangle over Japanese Immigration in California. Ambassador Morris is now conducting “conversations" with Japanese statesmen, seeking an adjustment. The Japanese plans in the Far East also loom up os a subject of future controversy. England—We are Involved In a dispute over the disposition of the former German cables and we have protested against the British-French partition or the Mesopotamian oil supplies. The State Department Is now awaiting a reply to this protest. France and Italy—We are in r serious controversy over the former German cables. Cuba— President Wilson has sent a specinl envoy to confer with President Menocal over the chaotic conditions In the island, which America views "with grave concern." There is a possibility of Intervention. Colombia —Our relations continue to be somewhat strained because of the nonadjustment of the Colombian treaty. Mo6t of the Central American Republics—We are involved in negotiation over a variety of things. DISARMAMENT ALSO LOOMS. In addition to this imposing array of difficulties for the incoming administration, there is also the possibility that it will devolve upon President Harding to enter into disarmament negotiations with the principal powers, particularly naval disarmament, with Japan and England. Whether President Wilson will succeed In settling any of these difficulties in the scant two months that are left of his administration and what disposition he ■will make of the treaty of Versailles are problematical. Secluded in the White House, the President sees only members of his Cabinet and his secretary. Joseph P. Tumulty, and those only infrequently. The President is completely shut off from personal contact with leaders In the Senate and House. Tbe Senators who conducted for the administration the long treaty fight in the Senite last winter see him no more. They profess to know no more of what Is In the President's mind regarding the treaty, which remains in his personal possession, than does the man in the street. If Mr. Wilson decides to resubmit the treaty before March 4, it will be referred to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and there allowed to repose until after March 4, at least, with no action taken on it. If he decides to send It to the archives of the State Department, it will undoubtedly be entombed there. If he leaves it in the White House for his successor to dispose of It probably will find its way to those same archives, according to Mr. Harding's friends here.

EUROPEAN AID WORK BOOMING Mrs. Meyer Efroymson Organizes Jewish Women. Mrs. Meyer Efroymson, Joint chairman of the Marlon County branch of the Hoover European Relief Council, announced &) a meeting held this morning •t the headquarters, 147 North Pennsylvania street, that Bhe is proceeding with organization* and has pledges of support from a large number of volunteer workers.

WOODEN ACTORS APPEAR TO BE REAL AT KEITH'S *Round the Town’ Is the Follies of Extravaganza —‘ Belltones ’ at Lyric

Wooden actors are the winners on this week's bill at Keith’s. The act Is Schichtl’s Royal Marionettes. They have it all over the flesh and blood actors on the same bill. I have seen many marionette or puppet acts, but this offering is the most marvelous which has ever come under my observation. In the first place, the marionettes in this net appear nearly life size, that is, the miniature stage on which the wooden actors perfoarm is so constructed that It is nearly as wide as tbe regular Keith's stage. Schicbtl presents for the first time on the local stage a puppet ballet which is as artistic as any flesh and blood ballet seen in this city. He also introduces, many surprise stunts, such as a man turning into an airplane. The effects of this marionette act are really wonderful. Do not think this is an act just for the children. The children will rave over it but the grown-ups will enjoy the marked ability required to present the Royal Marionettes. This act is one cf the treats of the vaudeville season. I am not so enthusiastic over most of the other acts. The Unusual Duo opens with a roller skating act in which some splendid gymnastics are introduced. William Newell and Elsa Most throw away a lot of valuable time before they win the house with jazz songs. The audience liked this act last night. My personal verdict on Lydia Barry is still in doubt. She is rather bold in spots, rather rough. Billy Glason is best while singing. Lane and Mickey make a feeble attempt at a “nut” offering. Not in the class with other acts seen here of the same nature. The Four Ortons havo a good wire net. The feature of the act Is Laura Pierpont in "The Guiding Star,” which is an over drawn attempt at down on the farm melodrama. There is not a sincere moment in the piece, which appears to have been built to give Miss Pierpont a chance to impersonate four characters. one a drug fiend. If you like “mellerdramer” with all the mello, then you may like this act. But do not miss Scbichtl't. Royal Marionettes because it is worth while. At Keith's all week. —W. D. 11. NOVELTY ACT ' AT THE LYRIC. "Belltones," the act that is at the head of this week's attraction at the Lyric, has four girl members of the company. Each one plays a musical Instrument, trombone, piano or cornet. They play old-fashioned and modern jazz songs. Songs are also a part of their offering, one of the members of the company sings sn Irish lullaby. Tyler and St. Claire perform on xylophones and are entertaining. Colonel Pattee and comrades play music that takes us back to the Civil War. Patriotic songs are the major part of their offering. The Four Astrellas are tumblers and funmakers. They throw themselves around the stage, turn hand springs in the air, but do not seem to suffer any evil effects from it. Bell and Bnnn set the whole house laughing with their line of wit. They have some new jokes and anew way of putting them across. YVe are not sure yet whether one of them is a woman or not. But that doubt only made their act funnh-r. They seemed to supply just what the audience was looking for. Margie Carson and Elwood and Leeds also are on the bill. At the Lyric all this week. -!- -i----“ROFN’n THE TOWN" IS A REAL SHOW.

at the Park. Quick action, specialty numbers, and much dancing earns it this comparison. From the beginning of the first act, songs, dancing and jokes follow each other in fast order. Miss Shirley Mallette has some good songs that also give her a chance to do some dancing. One of the best of these Is “Don't Take My Blues Away.” Miss Mallette makes probably the best hit of the company In her songs. Miss Jean Fox and Miss Beatrice Rogers also add to the musical part of the production. I. B. Hump and Harry Bentley are the comedians la “Around the Town." One as a Hebrew, and the other as an Irish man, keep up a fast line of humor. 11.

IF petroleum were wiped out today, factories would close their doors, agricultural machinery could no longer be made or operated, food could be raised only by primitive methods, and the transportation of food would be confined to horse power and water, for railroads could no longer run their trains, and before any adjustment could be made our great urban population would literally be starved to death. The prosperity of all industrial nations is based upon petroleum. The peak from which floats the flag that symbolizes the prosperity of the United States arises from a basic foundation of crude oil. The underlying foundation of this prosperity is lubricating oil, for without this essential product of petroleum, the machinery of the world would stop and the world’s reserve of lubricating oils, though vast in volume, would last but a few weeks at our present rate of consumption. The next essential factor is kerosene and gasoline, for without the first, one half of the population of the world would be without light at night, and without the second, all types of internal combustion engines would be useless, and the automobile, tractor, truck, marine and aviation engine would be mere curiosities. If lubricating oil, kerosene, and gasoline were available, but the hundreds of by-products made from the residue of petroleum were wiped out, many industries would be closed and unemployment would be general, for in nearly every industry one or more of these by-products are necessary in the manufacturing processes. Thus is visualized by an extreme presentation —purely imaginative—of what might happen if petroleum, or any of its major derivatives, were wiped out over night. Also it shows the importance of the work the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is doing in helping supply one of the basic, economic needs of the nation, and emphasizes the importance of the service the Company renders in promoting the comfort, health, and happiness of the individual citizen.
