WESTINGHOUSE WILL COME TO PACIFIC LOS ANGELES, May 19.—That the industrialization of the Pacific coast is approaching much more rapidly than the averaged California realizes, is evidenced through the announcement made here today by K. E. Van Kuran, district manager of the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Co., that this $55,000,000 concern is preparing to place a series of plants on the Pacific coast, thus avoid high freight rates on manufactured products from the east and to take advantage of the rapid industrial grow and coming foreign trade in the Pacific. The development planned for the coast includes a $1,000,000 plant, all ready announced for Los Angeles, two similar plants—one in the San Francisco Bay district and one in Puget Sound—one central coast factory, and two specialty manufacturing plants. The locations of the last three units have not yet been chosen. In addition, a series of distributing agencies will be set up in principal western centers. In making this announcement, Mr. Van Kuran said: "It is now nessary, in view of transcontinental freight rates and growing Pacific trade, that the Westinghouse organization prepare immediately to take care of western business from western plants. At least six units must be added to the 64 manufacturing plants now scattered over the country, where we already have 40,000 employees and annual sales of more than $150,000,000 in the United States." "I want to point out that not all of this material is to be manufactured in our new plants will be used on this coast. In 1914, the United States exported less than $20,000,000 worth of electrical appliances. Today, America exports almost this amount of electrical appliances each month, the exports totaling more than half a million dollars today." "There is a great future for continued development of the Pacific trade through concentration of industries here. In 1919 America shipped more than 1,600,000 metal filament electric lamps to Mexico; more than 1,100,000 to Australia and New Zealand; more than 250,000 to the Dutch East Indies; probably the biggest gas flow of any well so far drilled in the Orange co. fields. The crew was not quite ready to bring the well in, being engaged in washing out and being 500 feet from the bottom. However, arrangements had been made to control the well and it did not "go over the top." It was seen from the first that the well was a big producer but at the start the flow was principally gas. The guage at the well showed a gas pressure of over 600 pounds, and a flow at the rate of ten million cubic feet a day. There was no way of handling the gas and it was allowed to escape through two pipes, carrying with it a comparatively small amount of oil. In a short time, however, traps were set to hold back the gas and yesterday the well was flowing oil at the rate of about 3000 barrels a day. Superintendent Brown of the Union Oil Co. had a large force of men working with a view of holding back the gas so as to give free flow to the oil, and he believed that when this was accomplished the oil production would go considerably higher. Indications are that the well will prove in too long run the best producer of the lease and probably the best in the eastern field. LOOKS LIKE FIELD ABOUT SIGNAL HILL Long Beach District Long Beach around the vicinity of Signal Hill is fast assuming all the appearances of an oil field. Five companies are now in the field. The Vernon Oil Co. is building a rig, the Signal Hill Oil & Gas Co. and the Sandberg Petroleum Co. Drilling on the Standard's Bixby has passed the 3400 mark without getting very much encouragement in the way of showings. E. J. Miley has succeeded in getting out of the top surface trouble and is now making hole in sand and gravel at 400 feet. The drilling out of the cement in the Shell Company's well is being anxiously awaited. It is undrasted that this will be done about the middle of the week. Everything now hinges on the Shell Company's success. This well now stands cemented at 2725, where a good showing or oil was struck. Opinion seems to be divided on the out- No Work for 3 Weeks On Well Dug 5180 Ft. Santa Fe Springs For three weeks no work has been going on at the Wilshire Oil Co.'s Santa Fe Springs well. Drilled to 5180 feet this well showed some oil sand, but very little oil. Water, deep water under high pressure has resisted all effort to shut off, and now it is understood that the well is suspended indefinitely. The well of the Amalgamated drilled to 3875 feet met with a fishing job which resulted in the leaving of considerable iron in the hole. Enough of the iron has been drilled by and sidelocked to permit the resumption of fishing. This is considered considerable progress. The Union Oil Co. is leading the development work at Santa Fe Springs with three wells drilling. Meyer No. 4 is 3925 in blue sandy shale. Meyer No. 5 is 3200 and cementing 15 inch pipe. At Bell No. 1 rigging up for continuation of the rotary drilling is about completed. Drilling will be resumed at 3450. Work on the Bandini Oil well at Santa Fe Springs is still being delayed. Fishing for casing at 3475 is the latest report on the well. 3000 BBLS, OIL AND 10,000 FT. GAS DAILY "What's that? Why, that's a real oil well," said Charles C. Chapman, millionaire oil and citrus magnate as he stood on the famous Chapman lease in the Yorba Linda Richfield district Saturday afternoon and watched a black stream of oil and gas rushing from the two inch pipe with a roar that could be heard for a mile.

Remember the Tiger-Rug in "Three Weeks" Here is Elinor Glyn, noted English authoress, who is to portray the part of the "Queen of Fashion" in a big spectacle, "The Adornment of Woman," during the Actors' Fund of America Festival at the Los Angeles Speedway on June 4th, in which seven hundred famous actresses and actors will participate. "Three Weeks," with its now famous tiger-skin rug chapter, was from the pen of Elinor Glyn. Her fondness for tiger skins is reflected in her selection of fur. She is seen shone in a set of tiger furs made from a skin presented to her by a noted British tiger hunter, who bagged the animal in India. Kitselman is about ready to resume work on Bohon No. 1, naving repaired the rig. Lausinger No. 2 has been taken over by the Kitselman interests and is no w drill at 1300 feet. The Standard Oil Co. succeeded in getting its 8 inch out at Bohon No. 1 and the well is now in good condition to go ahead with the drilling. The Petroleum Development Co. is drilling at 400 feet. The Union Oil Co. will drill out the cement at Sommers No. 1 the middle of the week and make a water test. Great precaution are being taken to prevent a blow out, a very usual occurrence in the Hawthorne district. Sommers No. 1 was cemented at 2025, the pipe being 12½ inches. Anaheim Beauty Parlor, Hair Work TEST BREA CANYON No. 32 DEEP WELL The Brea Canyon Oil Co.'s deep test well No. 32 will be given a chance to show what it will do. Drilling stopped at 4125 feet and the pumping output is being installed. About 65 feet of oil sand was drilled thru, and something o fa well can be reasonably expected. At least the test will determine water conditions before further drilling is done. No 32 set 8 inch easing at 3200 and will be the next producer. Drilling is about to start on No. 34, a new well. One of the deep wells on the Fullerton Hill is the Columbia Oil Co.'s Orange No. 7 now in the oil sand $3450. Pico No. 2 shows 3175 feet of hole in the brown shale. Pico No. 3 stands cemented at 2800. On the Menchego property, No. 1 is cleaning out at 3210 and will soon be making hole again. No. 2 is drilling in sandy brown shale and begins to look as though some deep drilling will have to be done to get into the productive sand struck by the General Petroleum and Union. At 2300 feet the Fullerton Oil Co.'s No. 6 drilling in the oil sand and near-completion met with a fishing job and is being delayed. No. 14 is standing cemented at 2395, and No. 17, a new well is building rig. The General Petroleum is putting in the tubing and getting ready to bring In Tonner No. 5 drilled to 2925 feet. While indications were fair, a big well is not expected. No. 6 is drilling close to 4000 feet in shale and boulders. No. 11 shows $3025 feet and No. 13 is drilling at 2800. The Union Oil Co.'s Stearns No. 57 is drilled 2006 feet and has been giving considerable trouble sanding up, but is being cleaned out, and has made at times as high as 400 barrels a day. In all probability the well will be put in condition to make a good producer. Stearns No. 58 continues to be the pride of the field, this well is still doing better than 1100 barrels a day, and shows no signs of falling off. No. 56, a new well, just started drilling. No. 65 is to start soon, and grades for new wells include 66, 75, 80, and $1. No new hole was made by the La Habra Midway during the past week. On getting a bit fished out at $60, sand heavened in and filled the hole up to $100 and is now drilling at 1300 feet. The Standard Oil Co. succeeded in getting its 8 inch out at Bohon No. 1 and the well is now in good condition to go ahead with the drilling. The Petroleum Development Co. is drilling at 400 feet. The Union Oil Co. will drill out the cement at Sommers No. 1 the middle of the week and make a water test. Great precaution are being taken to prevent a blow out, a very usual occurrence in the Hawthorne district. Somers No. 1 was cemented at 2025, the pipe being 12½ inches.
