The administration plan appears at best to be a forlorn one, in view of the temper of congress, but it is indicative of the manner in which the state department is grasping at any plan by which the flow to Japan's racial pride may be softened. Falling in this, President Coolidge would have recourse only to a straight veto—with the strong probability existing that the bill would be passed over his veto. In the opinion of most of President Coolidge's political advisers, a veto would be a very severe blow at Coolidge's chances of carrying the west, for Pacific coast sentiment for Japanese exclusion is overwhelming. Some of the president's advisors have told him if he vetored the bill he would "lose every electoral vote west of the Rockies." This may or may not be exaggerated, but it is indicative of the political fears being entertained in connection with the entire question.

Askew is organizing the aviators of the state to fight the tax of 2½ cents a gallon imposed on gasoline sales by the state legislature to provide funds for the building and upkeep of highways. The argument of Askew and his brother aviators is that the tax is unfair to them since they neither need nor use paved roads. SET CASING FOR WELL AT CYPRESS The little town of Cypress is in the limelight just now as one of the best oil bets in So. Calif. The Gaddie well, located on the William Wicker place, has been drilling for several months and the present level is near the 3700-ft mark. The Gaddie Co. is not giving out any information as to conditions, but the company thinks well enough of the prospects to be casing off at the present level. There have been well-founded rumors of a considerable oil strata. All last week these rumors kept floating and the casing operations have strengthened those rumors. It is evident that the company would not contract such a great expense as the casing off will entail unless there were very good prospects. It is not known what the intentions of the company are. It is suggested that they will proceed with standard tools. It is possible that they set their casing and perforate at the oil strata and bring in the well at the present depth. A 500-bbl well would be profitable at that depth. Land owners in the vicinity are sitting tight, but the curiosity that killed the cat has the most of them on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

A small boy, son of woman with whom Mendoza boarded, said that Juan Vialopez, one of two brothers suspected of the shooting, had been wounded in the arm and that he obtained $200 from some source before he fled. Wm. A. Draper, owner of ranch where shooting occurred, said the victim never drank but sometimes played poker. He had been told the two brothers had pursued Marques to his auto, that Marquez had pushed one from the running board, then leaped from car and fled to home of Alvarez. Undersheriff French said he was told by a woman named Felipa that she had heard Juan Vialopez declare he had done the shooting and "that if anyone else wants some of the same lot them come on."
