OIL FIELD NOTES The Fairview Oil company's test well looked so good at 2476 feet that it was decided that drilling discontinue and the water string be set. Fairview from all appearances looks like one of the best wildcat sections of southern California and there is reason to believe that 1000 barrels will be in order there in a few months. Huntington Beach furnished a nice producer in the shape of a 650-barrel well on the Miley-Keck property. The Amalgamated Oil company completed Miley-Keck No. 10 at 4077 feet and brought in a test well. The famous Huntington Central No. 2 continues to fight water. The General Petroleum corporation has gone back to Huntington Beach and will put a well on property leased from Joseph Dabney. The extreme eastern side of the field at Huntington Beach has not come into anything like commercial production yet. The Golden Dome Oil company failed to get a well at 3020 and the Peerless Petroleum company has a battle on with the water at 2853. The Standard Oil company has not been able to make an oil well out of the Thompson well. At present Thompson No. 1 is making about 80 barrels fluid, almost half of which is water. The Shell company's Newlands Borchard No. 1 is pumping mostly salt water and the Union Oil company's Newlands No. 2 at close to 3500 feet is not a producer of oil. The Standard Oil company completed a 600-barrel well at Huntington A-17. The new producer was finished at 2850. The Standard's Surf No. 2 at The La Habra Midway is drilling at 3635 and a formation change from sandy blue shale to sticky shale makes the well look better. The Southern California is close to 3900 feet and unless an encouraging change takes place soon the outlook for the well cannot be said to be promising. A CONSISTENT ADMINISTRATION The Harding administration would have stultified itself had it accepted the invitation of the allied governments to attend the forthcoming conference at The Hague. No phase of the foreign policy of the United States in the past year has been clearer than that relating to Europe in general and to Russia in particular. It has been repeated on numerous occasions by President Harding and Secretary Hughes, until every citizen of our own country who reads is familiar with it and every foreigner who cares to inform himself has made its acquaintance. President Harding had been in the white house little more than a month when the state department declared its position toward Russia. It was plainly stated that the United States could have no official intercourse with the Russians until productivity had been made secure in that country, thereby establishing suitable bases of credit. There has been no deviation from that policy and that is where the United States stands today. When the Genoa conference was called it became apparent that the Russian question would be the paramount subject of discussion; in other words, that the conference would be political rather than economic. The United States declined to participate in those deliberations for that reason. The soundness of that position was strikingly emphasized when it was disclosed at the conference that a secret treaty had been made between Germany and Russia tending to set at small cottage in years, was one of nesses.

At present Thompson No. 1 is making about 80 barrels fluid, almost half of which is water. The Shell company's Newlands Borchard No. 1 is pumping mostly salt water and the Union Oil company's Newlands No. 2 at close to 3500 feet is not a producer of oil. The Standard Oil company completed a 600-barrel well at Huntington A-17. The new producer was finished at 2850. The Standard's Surf No. 2 at 4250 is drilling in a hard shell and not showing any very promising oil indications. Wildcattling in southern California is taking on big proportions in spite of the fact that the daily production is climbing and a cry of over-reduction has been started. The Union Oil company of California has a rig up at Downey, one under construction at Compton, and materials going on the ground for locations at Athens on the Hill. The Potter Oil company has made its appearance at Athens on the Hill by leasing 540 acres. The Fullerton Oil company is taking leases in this new field and plans immediate developments. Athens on the Hill seems to be the coming new field of southern California. S. S. Thomas backs this new field after making an exhaustive study of the field. Like Huntington Beach and the Richfield district, Athens o nthe Hill has the showings in water well, a thing that has led to the discovery of a number of the leading California fields. In the Irvine Hills, Newport district, the Wucherer-Gray Oil company has reached a depth of 4224. To date the well has shown some gas and an occasional oil color. The outlook is beginning to be considered with some doubt. At No. 2 a depth of 3559 has been reached and the showings are about on a par with those found in No. 1. The Long Beach Consolidated, the pioneer of the Newport field, is putting its No. 1 on a production at 3900 feet. The well has been pumping water and some oil color for ten days. It appears that the Long Beach Consolidated will have to go on deeper. The Transport Oil company, headed by A. J. Wallace, former lieutenant When the Genoa conference was called it became apparent that the Russian question would be the paramount subject of discussion; in other words, that the conference would be political rather than economic. The United States declined to participate in those deliberations for that reason. The soundness of that position was strikingly emphasized when it was disclosed at the conference that a secret treaty had been made between Germany and Russia tending to set ataught any efforts the allies might make for a general understanding in Europe. The willingness of this country to contribute to the economic welfare of Europe has been demonstrated on occasions too numerous to mention, but it is no true American who would wish to see his country involved in political bickerings such as featured the Genoa meeting. With their year-old policy toward Russia and the revelations of the Genoa conference before them, President Harding and Secretary Hughes did not hesitate in framing their reply to the allied invitation to The Hague meeting. It was an unequivocal "No," coupled with a reiteration of the American attitude regarding Russia. It is true that the United States indicated a willingness to join the allied governments "in arranging for an inquiry by experts into the economic situation in Russia and the necessary remedies." But, of course, participation in such an inquiry is totally different from representation in The Hague parleys. The one would be merely to assemble facts, while the other will be an attempt to act upon such information as may be at hand. Consistency is one of the prime virtues of the present national administration. Every voter in the country knows just where President Harding stands today upon any subject upon which he has made a statement in the past. Anyone who read Secretary Hughes' pronouncement as to Russia, or his declination to attend the Genoa conference, would have known with reading it the tenbr of his reply to The Hague invitation. Nothing contributed so much to Mr. Wilson's loss of prestige in Paris as his constant wobbling to fit the changing situation, and nothing is alding so much in winning back the respect of Europe as the unswerving international policies of the Republican administration. MOONSHINER JAILED Assuming the role of both defendant and attorney, Henry Thompson Mrs. Florence Rigeles, sister of the man that he called her telephone about 10 morning and told her day.

He would be able The Long Beach Consolidated, the pioneer of the Newport field, is putting its No. 1 on a production at 3900 feet. The well has been pumping water and some oil color for ten days. It appears that the Long Beach Consolidated will have to go on deeper. The Transport Oil company, headed by A. J. Wallace, former lieutenant governor of California, completed its Farrell No. 1 at Long Beach at 3140 and the new well started off at 2000 barrels. The big well is completely surrounded by production and is located in the most congested district of the Signal Hill field. Aside from the General Petroleum's two big wells on the Santa Fe lease and the Union's big Bell discovery wells the Santa Fe Springs field has not proven the wonderful field it looked like it was going to become six months ago. The Standard Oil company has passed the mile mark by over 200 feet in the Kellogg well at Richfield and as yet has not found any oil or any promising indications of it. The Union company's Chapman No. 20 failed to come up to anywhere near expectations. This well, 4475, on the famous Chapman lease, started off at 120 barrels. Chapman 20 offsets the Wonder company's No. 4 and indicates that the southwest side of the Chapman holdings are not big well locations. The La Habra Midway and the Southern California Oil company each have wells drilled at the turning point reading it the tenbr of his reply to The Hague invitation. Nothing contributed so much to Mr. Wilson's loss of prestige in Paris as his constant wobbling to fit the changing situation, and nothing is aiding so much in winning back the respect of Europe as the unswerving international policies of the Republican administration. MOONSHINER JAILED Assuming the role of both defendant and attorney, Henry Thompson was tried by a jury in the justice court at Santa Ana Monday on a charge of manufacturing, selling and giving away intoxicating liquors. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty 10 minutes after it retired and Justice of the Peace Cox sentenced Thompson to a term of 90 days in the county jail. He had already been in jail for a month awaiting his trial. Thompson cross-examined all of the witnessed with the keenness of an attorney, but the evidence against him was so strong he could not convince a single juror that he was not guilty. Thompson and Charles Packard were taken in a raid under the supervision of Game Warden Ed Adkinson and Motorcycle Officer O. K. Carr. Packard pleaded guilty to transporting booze at the time of his arraignment and was sentenced to a term of 90 days. A five gallon glass jug, several smaller containers, samples of corn mash and other wares confiscated in the raid on Thompson's still in Aliso canyon were exhibited in evidence. The evidence has been in the district attorney's office since it was brought in and District Attorney Nelson was called to testify that it had not been tampered with or sampled by anyone in his office.

Gibbs Lumber COMPANY Fullerton Anaheim Placentia VICTIM OF ALCOHOL DIES IN COUNTY JAIL Coroner's Jury Exonerates Officials of the Jail Exonerating county authorities from all blame, the coroner's jwy. which Saturday morning held an inquest in the case of Frank Carroll, aged 32 years, who died in the county jail at noon Friday. returned a verdict that the decedent came to his death as a result of embolism of the heart, produced by chronic alcoholism. The verdict added that no negligence could be attached to any officer. Mrs. Florence Fernald, of Los Angeles, sister of the decedent, testified that he called her by long-distance telephone about 11 o'clock Friday morning and told her of his incarceration. She said that she "kidded" him about being in jail, saying that inasmuch as Bebe Daniels stood it for 10 days, he ought to be able to put up with it. Joe Irvine, deputy jailer, stated after the inquest that he understood Carroll to ask his sister for money with which to pay his fine. She small cottage in Aliso canyon for years, was one of the principal witnesses. He said that he had seen Thompson around the still several times. Once he saw him building a fire beneath the cooker. Wilson said that another man known as Clyde English was frequently with Thompson. Wilson in testifying first gave the name of Thompson's associate as Clyde Bishop a local attorney, and Justice Cox and all the jurors all gasped in astonishment. He then corrected himself. Edward W. Cochems, local photographer identified several pictures which were taken on the day of the raid when about 700 gallons of corn mash were dumped and a lot of the finished product was poured onto the ground by the officers.

You are hereby directed to appear and answer the complaint in an action entitled as above brought against you Mrs. Florence Fernald, of Los Angeles, sister of the decedent, testified that he called her by long-distance telephone about 11 o'clock Friday morning and told her of his incarceration. She said that she "kidded" him about being in jail, saying that inasmuch as Bebe Daniels stood it for 10 days, he ought to be able to put up with it. Joe Irvine, deputy jailer, stated after the inquest that he understood Carroll to ask his sister for money with which to pay his fine. She made no reference to that, however, when testifying. Irvine testified that Carroll was brought to the jail about 10 o'clock Friday morning. He asked permission to telephone his sister, and was allowed to do so. Irvine said that Carroll walked up and down the stairways of the jail without any apparent effort, but added that he seemed to "go to pieces" after the telephone conversation. Irvine said that the decedent asked for a stimulant, and that he refused to give him anything of the sort, because he did not believe he could stand it. He compromised with the prisoner by agreeing to have him sent to the county hospital as soon as possible. Fred A. Mitchell, a friend of the decedent, testified that he thought Carroll's life might have been prolonged if he had been given a stimulant. He said that he had known the man for a long time, and that he had been addicted to the liquor habit for about seven years. Mr. Mitchell said that Carroll frequently drank Jamaica ginger diluted with a little water. He was a good fellow. Mitchell said, but determined to have alcoholic stimulants. Carroll was arrested at Huntington Beach. Wednesday, for being drunk. He was given the alternative of a fine of $50 or 50 days in jail.
