OIL FIELD NOTES Bringing in new production is a regular thing now with the Amalgamated Oil company at Huntington Beach. Huntington No. 7, completed at 2785 feet, looks like a 300 barrel well. On the Fowler lease No. 4, at 3317 feet, is starting off at 400 barrels and is producing 26 gravity oil. Pearce No. 5, a deep well completed last week at 4076 feet, has increased its production from 800 barrels to 1000 barrels and makes the outlook for deep sand production at Huntington Beach look very encouraging. The Interstate Oil company is about to put the Vista Del Mar No. 2 on production. This well was started two years ago, met with all kinds of difficulties and battled with water for a year. The Invader Oil company, another concern that got into Huntington Beach early and has stayed late, is about to realize. Invader Miller No. 1 has been completed at 3450 feet and is making about 100 barrels daily. Another deep well is the Mosier Special's Krahlung No. 1. Finished at 4708 feet, this well was put on the pump a few days ago and started off making 100 barrels of fluid oil and water. Jim O'Donnel scored again with a 450 barrel well, making 27 gravity oil. O'Donnell's second success was completed at 4036 feet and again demonstrates what is down below the top sands at Huntington Beach. The Pacific Petroleum company (E.J. Miley) succeeded in getting its No. 1 oil production. The New York Sun was running a free bread station; there were soup kitchens and other public establishments for relieving hunger among the hundreds of thousands without work. Chicago and other industrial centers were in the same condition. It was the world war that relieved this situation and put these armies of the unemployed back to work. The cause of the industrial depression of 1914 was the same as that of the industrial depression of 1894—a tariff law framed for the purpose of sacrificing domestic in behalf of foreign production. The same tariff law, coupled with deflation following a national financial debauch, is causing the same effects now. There are all too many theorists in America who habitually ignore the obvious in order to advocate the far-fetched dogmas of European economists. The doctrine who converses about relieving unemployment, but ignores the immediate importance of permitting Americans to supply the necessities of Americans to the point where unemployment is ended by giving workers jobs in American industries, is evidently more concerned in airing preconceived notions than in restoring American prosperity. REMEMBER YPRES There were days nearly eight years ago when millions of men and women turned anxious eyes toward the little Belgian town, Ypres. But no one had more reason to look dismally into the future than did the inhabitants of this town. For they were directly in the path of a great army, so that no matter which side won, Ypres and its people would be the sufferers. And so they were. As the months dragged by and grew into years, those people were made to witness and ex- Jim O'Donnell scored again with a 450 barrel well, making 27 gravity oil. O'Donnell's second success was completed at 4036 feet and again demonstrates what is down below the top sands at Huntington Beach. The Pacific Petroleum company (E. J. Miley) succeeded in getting its No. 1 back on production. The old well, redrilled and put in production condition at 2845 feet, is making 350 barrels daily. A 700 barrel well at 4400 feet is the latest accomplishment of the Selby-Root-Hogue Oil company at Huntington Beach. This deep heavy producer was brought in on the Curtis property on the north side. The old Pantages-Huntington is to go down after the deep sand. The well has been taken over by Frank O. Blake, former Standard Oil company man, and C. C. Krone, a Richfield operator. There is reason now to believe that the West Seaboard Oil company is going to arrive. This company's well was also started when the Huntington Beach field was young and the company has experienced varied financial circumstances and several times a change of name. Making hole at 4250 feet, the formation is showing a nice oil sand that carries lots of oil and gas. INCREASE IN DRILLING Over-production and subnormal consumption of oil in California and the recent reduction in the price of crude oil at the well do not appear to have curtailed drilling activities in the new fields of Los Angeles and Orange counties. During the week ending August 5, 1922, 48 notices to drill new wells were filed with State Oil and Gas Supervisor R. E. Collom, as against 33 during the previous week. This is the largest number of notices filed during any week in 1922 up to the present time, and is only one less than the largest number of notices filed in any week in 1921. During the week ending April 9, 1921, 49 notices were filed, 14 of which; however, were for wells in the shallow Conejo field in Ventura county. Of the 48 notices filed during the there were days nearly eight years ago when millions of men and women turned anxious eyes toward the little Belgian town, Ypres. But no one had more reason to look dismally into the future than did the inhabitants of this town. For they were directly in the path of a great army, so that no matter which side won, Ypres and its people would be the sufferers. And so they were. As the months dragged by and grew into years, those people were made to witness and experience all that it is humanly possible for anyone to see and feel and still desire to live. All the horror and tragedy of modern warfare came into their daily lives. To the boom of cannon they went to bed, only to arise on the morrow with grief and miserable foreboding in their hearts. Finally like another Carthage, Ypres was destroyed. In days to come there will be written many books about the great war. With infinite detail, as is their wont, historians will draw maps and charts and make numerical estimates of men engaged and battles won and lost and damage done. But each one of the countless chapters written will be only a repetition of the preceding one; nor will the total aggregate of books about the war tell us anything more than can be learned from a half hour reading of what befell Ypres and its unfortunate citizens. This Belgian town is now being rebuilt. For two years 3000 workmen have been engaged in little more than removing the wreckage and clearing the ground for new buildings. It is said that 28 long and busy years of labor will have to be put in by these men to bring Ypres back to its former state. And then there will be much that can never be replaced. The members of the national council for the reduction of armaments who are organizing an aggressive campaign for "No more war" would do well to make use of what happened to Ypres. In fighting it took probably only ya few days to lay waste this town, but it will take 30 years to rebuild it. There is campaign material against war in the story of the fall of Ypres. RAMONA IS DEAD Ramona, one of the most noted fictional characters—and yet, with some claim to the reality—is dead.

Of the remaining 8 notices, 6 were for wells in the Midway, Elk Hills and Sunset fields, in Kern county, 1 in the Ventura field, Ventura field, Ventura county, and 1 in Mendocino county. Only 16 of the notices were filed by the larger operating companies. The total new wells this year is 839, as against 886 the same date last year. Wells were begun at Huntington Beach during the week ending August 5, as follows: Three by the Amalgamated Oil company, two by the Milley-Keck Oil company, one each by the Petroleum Midway, Standard and Rhoades Oil Producing company. WHY IGNORE WELL REMEMBERED FACTS Ida M Tarbell says: "Traced back to fundamental causes periods of depression and unemployment are direct outgrowths of war." Miss Tarbell, for an historian, has a short memory. In mid-summer of 1914, before the European war began, there were three million unemployed in the United States. In New York City in the winter of 1913-14 the unemployed numbered a half million, and the necessity ANAHEIM GAZETTE OFFICE PHONES HOME 753-1 SUNSET 341-J. Residence, 887 S.
