HEROES AND PATRIOTS In a western city there lives a hero, a fireman who carried a child down a ladder from a burning tenement in the midst of flames and smoke. He was badly injured. He received the acclaim of the public. We laud his courage. This is as it should be. There is another man in the same city who has Received little or no attention. No one has ever thought of calling him a hero. He is the quiet, hardheaded business man who builds his tenements so that those who live in them are free from the fear of fire. He has saved dozens of livesby preventing fires. It is too bad that fire prevention cannot be made spectacular. However, we can at least honor the man who minimizes fire loss by spending thought and money in its prevention. n o : D. E.

01R OIL PRODUCTION The Department of Commerce report-: that during 1926 the total production of crude oil in the United States was 770,874.000 barrels valued at $1,447,760,000 at the well. This was an in crease of seven millions of barrels over 1925. The report does not state the increase in consumption, but the fact that we imported over 60 millions barrels indicates that our home production did not meet the demands. - Production in California, the leading oil-producing State, dropped off approximately 8.000,000 barrels, but Oklahoma registered a gain of about 2,500,000 barrels and established a new mark. The average price per barrel was SI.BB, a gain of 20 cents over 1925. o Secretary Hoover’s final report on the losses in the Mississippi valley floods, includes 225,000 head of horses, mules, cattle and swine, and 1,300.000 fowls were swept away. More than 4,400,000 acres were inundated, four-fifths of it cultiavted. There was also a huge loss of buildings and other property.
