MOORISH SNIPERS TRAIL RETREATING SPANISH TROOPS Inflict Heavy Losses on Army Being Withdrawn From Morocco, By WEBB MILLER Copyright, 19i4, by l nited Press BEX KARRI EH. Spanish Morocco (By Courier to Gibraltar). Dec. 9. —With permission of Primo De Rivera, head of the Spanish directory and under whose personal supervision the Spanish are withdrawing their troops from Morocco, the United Press correspondent today mingled with the troops and saw the amazing tangle of transport as the Spanish soldiers struggled through a sea of mud in a narrow mountain road. It is along this single, tortuous mountain trail that 40,000 men must move to safety while invisible Moorish snipers constantly seek them out. Accompanied by aids of Primo De Rivera in an automobile, I was able to visit this point and there came appreciation of the difficulties of the withdrawal. The scene is along a mountain road, deep in mud. It is filled with a tangle of transport. Heavy carts, each drawn by six mules, with bleeding mouths and great sores worn upon their sides. There is a roaring of auto trucks, which skid and slide in the soft mud. the explosion of their engines adding to the din. It Is down thl sroad that Rivera is directing his army. The rear is protected by the famous foreign legion, some 5,000 strong. They are volunteers, mostly desperate characters. Officers declare that the average life of a legionnaire is about two months. The entire legion has been wiped out several times in the past three years. About 20 per cent of the legiannalres are former German soldiers. Then there is a scattering of Russians, Italians, Cubans and Austrians. With the start of the retreat, the Moors became emboldened and despite the greatest effort to provide protection bv scores of outi*osts, pro. footed by barbed wire and sandiiags, handsful of Moors slip through and pick off Spanish soldiers. The outposts are erected upon the

But concealing themselves in remarkable fashion, the pick of the Moorish marksmen, who tire remarkavle shots, get within range. They shoot, ifee, reappear elsewhere. It is like fighting mosquitoes. Within eye sight here there are twenty dive posts, with a dozen to fifty men glarding even' dominating point. Yet Moorish bullets come whistling over the congested road.

Genuine prosperity is with us when all men are employed creating new wealth — new merchandise—which is passed to the consuming public at prices which give them full value tor the money spent New wealth is active wealth and active wealth, like active labor, is that which is employed making the world a better, happier place in which to live. The man who owns an oil well is not prosperous unless there is an active demand for his oil. The mere possession of oil signifies nothing—it is of no profit It is valuable only when it is put to use. The main function of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is to make oil usable and to put the finished products where people can get them without effort By bringing oil products within the reach of everyone, at prices low enough to make them available to all, this Company creates new wealth and makes it active and usable. A gallon of gasoline manufactured by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has a definite economic value, because it represents a potential service when put to use in a running motor. The power—-the service—latent in this gasoline will propel your car 8 to 22 miles in the pursuit of business or pleasure. In using it you derive pleasure or profit—or both—and by using it you are adding to the general prosperity—by releasing a definite amount of capital for further use. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) serves you through its scientific discoveries, through its progressive use of chemical knowledge, through its efficient refinery administration, through its modern business organization, through its forwardlooking labor policy, and through the high quality and wide distribution of its products. All these functions of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) are at the service of every one who needs and buys a gallon of gasoline. The man who drives a Ford commands the immense resources of this organization as truly as does the man who operates a fleet of trucks.
