NEWS OF-FULLERTON FULLERTON MAYOR APPEALS FOR BONDS W. F. Coulter, mayor of Fullerton, made a spirited appeal last night to the business men who had gathered at the city hall in the interest of the hotel, for the city bond issue of $233,000, which will be voted on at the special election June 23 for the rebuilding of the city's water system. He declared that this is necessary because of the run-down condition of the present water system. In case of a fire of any size it would be put out of commission in many places, especially the laterals, he declared. Will the bond issue go through? The election is barely two weeks distant and there are persistent indications that the public will repudiate this issue. Prominent citizens in almost every line of business discussed the project freely today and declared that the bond issue would not be passed. There is much feeling apparent over the controversy and in the mind of the man on the street it is all actuated by a desire to repudiate something or somebody. From more than fifty persons interviewed today the view was concurrent that the bond issue would not be passed. Two of the entire number ventured the opinion that the whole subject matter was "on the fence," and that so finely was the balance that it would not take more than a "gentle push" to cause a collapse of well laid plans to float $283,000 of city indebtedness. Of the fifty or more men requested for opinions, these were the two lone exceptions not firmly convinced that the bond issue would be repudiated. Some of the leading interests of the city are in opposition to the bond issue but have hesitated to come out openly. Others declare the city must start an advertising campaign to convince the people of the absolute need of such a project, while others indicate clearly their disbelief in any such expenditure for city water mains with the contention that proper pumping facilities will give the city all the water it requires, even in emergency. INSURANCE MEN ORGANIZE Fullerton insurance men met Monday night at the offices of Pinson and Thurber, with H. D. Thurber presiding, and took steps to effect a permanent organization to be known as the Underwriters' Insurance association. Ten representatives in the Fullerton district were in attendance. S. N. Fuller was elected president, R. S. Gregory vice president and H. D. Thurber secretary-treasurer. They had their first luncheon and social meeting at the "Milk Bottle" today at noon. The members voted to invite the realists to consolidate with the underwriters in one organization for the common good. This action will probably result in a strong board of representative men that should, it is contended, do much to build up the prestige of the profession and place the business on a higher plane of endenvor. J. C. COMMENCEMENT The Fullerton Junior College commencement will be held at the Fullerton H. S. auditorium Friday evening at 8 o'clock.

Some of the leading interests of the city are in opposition to the bond issue but have hesitated to come out openly.

Two weeks ago it looked as if the bond issue would be passed without opposition. Now it looks as if almost every man on the street were talking against it. If it's from Witman's it's good!

PROPOSE ELECTION ON HOTEL PROJECT No agreement was reached last night between Fullerton trustees and the hotel committee of the Fullerton board of trade relative to the proposed new hotel for Fullerton, the there is a glimpse of hope seen thru the proposition finally arrived at by the board of trustees which the city clerk was authorized to submit to the board of trade this week. In a resolution presented trustees by the B. of T. committee it was proposed that a special election be called, taking the matter out of the hands of the trustees and putting the matter up to the decision of the people. The price to be paid for the site, however, was to be put into the hands of the B. of T. committee. This was the stumbling block over which the resolution went down, as it was considered rather far-reaching in that it took the power to fix the price out of the hands of both the people and the trustees. The trustees finally arrived at the agreement that a site 150 feet along Spadra-rd with a depth of 230 feet, which will necessitate the setting back of the alley, will be offered the hotel committee at $150 a front foot. If the B. of T. committee refuses to accept this a special election will be called, of the hotel committee so desires, upon any propositions that may be made. The special election would not be a legal one, however, as that would take so long that interest in the hotel would van, but it would be on the order of a straw vote, and, if held, will be held June 16. The whole matter will be submitted by the clerk to the hotel committee, for their approval or disapproval.

With two strings of tools in the hole at Keeler No. 2 drilled to 3060 the outlook is far from good. No. 1 is going good at 3145 in hard sand. At 305 feet the Potter Oil Co. got its furst substantial showing of oil and at 3100 the showing is still continuing. The Potter made very good time drilling No. 2 and will have it on production in record time for a field where drilling is hard, slow, difficult and hazardous. Redrilling and cleaning out on the Germain I-B has been resumed by the Petroleum Midway. Originally drilled to 3700 pipe trouble developed making it necessary to come back to 3200; drilling is now at 3525 Baldwin No. 9 now in the oil sand at 3800 will be the P.-M.'s next producer. Prugh No. 9 is drilling at 2835 and is in a sandy brown shale. The last well brought in by the Standard Oil Co., Baldwin No. 56, is good for 400 barrels. No. 57-4, the deep test well, is making hole at 3300. One well is drilling on Temple, No. 14, now standing cemented at 1516. Drilling at Pluma-Briana No. 4 will be started by the St. Helen's Co. in a few days. Eggleston No. 1 set 6 inch at 3257 and is standing Monerey No. 5 is pulling the 8 inch to go deeper, a showing of oil at 3200 being worth the effort. Nutt No. 1 continues to produce about a 100 barrels of fluid, the percentage of oil and water running 50-50. The Union Oil Co. has two of its Montebello wells in the oil sand and would be bringing them in soon if it were not for mechanical troubles. La Merced No. 9 drilled to 3065 is in the oil sand, but is redrilling at 2675. No. 21 in the said at 3045 is milling pipe at 2500. No. 22 drilling at 2615 with 4-way bit, the bottom being at 2760. No. 23 is also in the oil sand at 2600, but is fishing for pipe at 2300. No. 18 is in the oil sand at 2645 and looks very good. No. 24 a new well, is rigging up. The Western Pacific is busy getting out a string of tubing caught in a recent cementing job. Cemented at 2900 the cement came up around the tubing used in the operation and stuck it. The portion caught in the cement will have to be milled out. FULLERTON PACKS 100 CARS WEEKLY With about 90 cars of Valencia orances going to market from Fullerton district last week, with present indications that this number will be increased to 100 cars this week, the great annual movement of this prize crop of the district may be said to be fully under way. The Placentia Orange Grower’s association, operating close to capacity, shipped 48 cars from their two plants last week, and will get out as many more this week.

Pipe collapsing caused a lot of trouble for this well. Water still prevents the La Merced Oil Co. from getting any production at Montebello, Manly No. 1 has been on the pump at 3130 for three weeks and has produced practically water. Calkins No. 1 ran into salt water two months ago at 27745, and now efforts will be made to shut it off. Aside from getting on O. K. on the water shut off at No. 12 drilled to 2900 there has been little change IT'S OPEN SEASON UPON WALNUT WORM Walnut growers of Orange-co., are being notified by Prof. H. J.

They have been keeping close observation of the egg deposits of the moth in the walnut sections of the county, and as a result of their findings to date, they recommend that immediate control measures be taken. Eggs are now hatching and the young worms beginning to be active. In a statement to the Farm Bureau, Prof. Quayle says: "The time has now arrived for the treatment of the Codling Moth on the walnuts.

In 1919, treatment was started about the 25th of May, and in 1920, the first of June. During the present season our work in the test orchards will begin tomorrow, June 9th, where both dusting and spraying will be carried on. Growers who had an infestation in their orchards last year of more than 3 or 4 per cent should arrange immediately to do it sometime during the next two or three weeks. Four walnut groves in the vicinity of Santa Ana will be dusted and sprayed under this department's supervision: A. J. Crookshank, Sherman Stegen, Tustin, and Mayberry Grove, R. F. Brown, Santa Ana. These are the same groves that were used last year. The plots will be reversed—that is, the trees that were sprayed and vicia versa. BROKER CAUSE OF, PUENTE OIL RUSH Puente Hills The report that H. A. Bardeen and associates had struck a ten thousand barrel well in the Puente Hills was started by a broker who had some lands and stock to sell. There is hardly a word of truth in the report. Direct advice from the office of the company today states that the well is flowing some oil, water, emulsion and gas, and that it is not known whether a producing well has been struck or not. From the time the well made its first flow last Friday morning up until the present time sand has been a constant menace and UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT The Anaheim Auto Wrecking Co. is under new management.
