H. B. PRODUCTION DROPS TO 71,000 The production of Huntington Beach has dropped to 71,000 barrels, and the best field now brings in is 260 and 300 barrel wells. The Solby-Root Oil Co completed a deep well on the Curtis lease going to 4950 and got only a 250 barrel producer. The Dodge Syndicate broke into the production column of the Beach field with a 150 barrel well completed at 4425 feet. The Shell Company's Davenport well at $800 a redrilled and deepened well is making about 600 barrels, but the percentage of water is running quite high. Montebello is beginning to look good again and is staging considerable new development. The Arcadia Oil Company's northeast wildcat at 4400 has found a sand that may carry oil. The Craff-Cormier Drilling Company has the Reppetto Hills Oil Company's No. 1 drilling at 1650 feet and have already had very promising top showings. The Standard Oil's Baldwin 59 at 4420 made a demonstration that makes the well appear as a promising proposition. H. L. Whiton has plugged the 4444 foot Dicknell well to 4350 and will make an exhaustive attempt to shut off water. For use in small apartments an electric laundry machine has been designed which, including a folding wringer, occupies about the space of a chair.

Renner declared that previous similar campaigns had been only partial successes because full cooperation was lacking. A "hope chest" in which funds would be placed to carry on drives of this sort is included in Renner's plan. Renner, who has taken a lending part in getting new industries here, pointed out their value. The merchants last night passed a resolution urging city council to pass au ordinance at once that would prohibit parking in the downtown section for more than two hours between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Chartres to Chestnut on Los Angeles and Olive to Helena on Center is the district proposed in which the new parking rule would apply.

NEW HOPES FOR DEEPER DRILLING Santa Fe Springs developers are watching eagerly the Standard Oil Co.'s Houston well, for upon the outcome of this test well the future of the famous Springs field will depend. A depth of 4800 feet has been reached by the Standard and to date the well has had no important oil showings. Attention was attracted to the southwest section of the Springs field this past week with the showings the Commercial Refining Co. has been getting. At 5083 feet a shale streaked with sand showed some oil. As drilling proceeds the showings appear under each successive layer of shell. Repeated core samples have all tested oil, and the outlook for a deep producer in the abandoned section of the field seems of having possibilities. The California Drilling Co. will drill to 5500 feet. New producers at the Springs this week were completed by the General Petroleum, Oscar Howard, Petroleum Midway, and the Union Oil Co. The General Petroleum's Santa Fe No. 1 started off at 1500 barrels and looks as though it will make an excellent producer. On the Hathaway leaves Oscar Howard put a 1200 barrel producer on at 4600 feet. The Petroleum Midway Mattern 1-1 at 4645 went on at 1200 barrels. The Union Oil Company led the field with a 1300 barrel well at Bell No. 20. The Bell producer was finished at 4700 and is making 34 gravity oil. This producer brings Union's Springs output to better than 35,000 barrels daily. -Buy In Anaheim— LUMBER CO.

PARRY (Copyright 1923 by International News Service) TOKIO, Nov. 28—The Japanese navy, while suffering with all other departments of the Japanese government, plans to make a speedy return to its pre-earthquake status. While the work on the auxiliary ship program, work on construction of submarines and aircraft must be closed down, as a result of the September disaster, and the consequent need for economy in all departments, the total strength of the Japanese navy has not been dangerously injured by the recent events." This was the declaration today of Admiral Takarabe, who told something of the damage done Yokosuka, Japan's great naval base, in an interview today with International News Service. "The navy," he continued, "being made up of good sailors, meets the present emergency as good sailors the world over meet the emergency; it postpones some of its work, cats budget requests for 1922-24, and hopes that its action may materially help in the post-earthquake comeback of Japan." Listing the damage done at Yokosuka and at other navy places, Admiral Takarabe pointed out that the damage done the floating power, after all the great power of any navy, had been small. "Our total loss at Yokosuka and other places will come under 100,-000,000 yen ($50,000,000.00)." Plain Dealer Ads Always Bring Results LEGAL NOTICE NOTICE TO CREDITORS ESTATE OF Walter G.
