Country Wonders at Queer Love Affair BOSTON, Jan. 24.—Charles Gassland, who at one time asserted his preference for sackcloth and ashes against accepting the $1,000,000 legacy of his father, caused America to wonder today at his queer love affair. Garland admits his love for Miss Lillian Conrad, an art student. His wife and baby daughter are living apart from him. "I love Charles Garland for his ideals, not alone for the man himself," Miss Conrad said. Garland evidently doesn't want to go back to his wife, for he declared: "I love Lillian Conrad and intend to live with her. I don't fear consequences, either legal or otherwise. I am not a polygamist and therefore cannot have my wife with me." Merchants Noon day dinner 11:30 to 2.50c. Every day except Sunday. California Confectionery, next to new HAMLER PRIZE PROPOSAL Geo.

AVOIDS SCRATCHING A New Jersey inventor's wooden BONUS AMENDMENT TO REFUNDING BILL WASHINGTON, Jan. 25—An amendment to the bill for the refunding of wartime loans to allied powers was introduced by Senator Simmons, Democrat, of North Carolina, to provide a bonus for ex-service men. The bill is the same as the House bill acted on by the Senate last summer, except for the ways in which the payment is to be made. Secretary Mellon of the Treasury Department, still opposes a soldier bonus, which he says is only possible by adding to existing taxes. Mellon wrote a letter to this effect to Chairman Fordney of the House ways and means committee.

WON'T BUILD TUSTIN EXTENSION Scores of ranchers northeast of Santa Ana were well pleased today when it was disclosed that they were victors, temporarily at least, in their battle against the plan of the Union Pacific to extend its lines through certain portions of Orange county. Throughout the Olive, Villa Park, El Modena and Tustin districts ranchers discussed the announcement that the railroad had for the time being withdrawn its application to extend its lines into those sections. The railroad commission had been scheduled to consider the project and to hear both sides of the case at a meeting in the Pacific Finance building, Los Angeles, today. Because of the announcement of the temporary withdrawal of the application, meetings set for today by those fighting the Union Pacific plan were cancelled by W. N. Curtimings, of Orange, chairman of the growers' committee. Judge F. S. Brittain, of San Francisco, head of the state farm bureau public utilities department, who came to Santa Ana to confer with Cummings and two other committee members, L. L. Collins and D. C. Drake, received the announcement of the withdrawal of the railroad's application from Commissioner Loveland of the state railroad commission. Judge Brittain was to have laid before the commissioner the objections of various bodies in the county. Protestants against the proposed extension today expressed the opinion that the temporary withdrawal of the Union Pacific may mean that the railroad company plans to give up the project altogether.

Colom, State Oil and Gas Supervisor, show a marked tendency toward curtailment of development operations in San Joaquin Valley fields and considerable drilling activity in the three new southern fields, Huntington Beach, Long Beach and Santa Fe Springs. From the above must be excepted the Elk Hills oil field, in Kern county, where drilling operations are active. The Elk Hills oil field is one of the most important sources of both petroleum and natural gas in the State. As an oil field the easterly portion of Elk Hills, in which most of the recent development has occurred, is deserving of special comment. It has the highest average daily production of oil per well of any oil field in the State and the lowest production of water per well. The average daily production of oil per well is 415 barrels and of water less than 2 barrels. Oil field operations reported the week ending Jan. 21, 1922, show 22 new wells started compared with 30 previous week. The total new wells this year is 69, as compared with 104 the same date last year. Tests for water shut-off 24, same as previous week. Yearly total to date 67; total to same date last year 111.
