SAY LABOR WILL BACK LA FOLLETTE WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.—Endorsement of the La Follette, Wheeler independent presidential ticket will result from the meeting of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor, opening in Atlantic City tomorrow, according to word reaching leaders of the progressive party here today. While La Follette's managers refused to comment publicly on these informal advice, but in view of these reports from Atlantic City, where members of the executive council, including Samuel Gompers, veteran president of the federation, are now assembling, William H. Johnston, chairman of the Conference for Progressive Political Action, and a member of the LaFollette campaign committee, announced he would not attend the early sessions of the council's meetings as he had previously planned. He said, however, he would go to Atlantic City Monday or Tuesday to confer with the labor chiefs. The chief problem before the executive council at Atlantic City is whether endorsement shall be given to any of the presidential tockets, and the first two days of the sessions are expected to be devoted exclusively to this problem. Gompers, in a formal statement issued from Atlantic City, has declared that organized labor will pursue its usual non-partisan course, but the executive council, it was learned here today, will analyze—from "labor's view point"—the platforms of three parties with a view to determine which of the platforms contain the "greatest hope for labor." The council then can recommend to the consideration of the rank and file of the American Federation of Labor the outline of political principles which can be supported in the election. A spirited fight in the executive council to prevent endorsement of the LaFollette movement is freely predicted. THE 'CONSTITUTION' RATTING TO PIECES WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 1. The famous old ship "Constitution" lies rotting away at a dock in the Boston Navy Yard. A bill appropriating money to repair and save this patriotic relief was shelved in the rush of business as congress closed. When congress opens may be too late. The Christian Science Monitor gives the following history of a vessel which should be—which always has been—high in the hearts of the patriots in this nation: "The Constitution was launched in 1797 at Hartford's shipyard, and its peculiarly brilliant naval career may have been said to begin in 1803. "When the war of 1812 broke out, Capt. Isaac Hall was commanding it. He was on a mission in Europe carrying specie for the payment of a debt to Holland. The Constitution was shadowed then, but not attacked by British men-of-war. But in July of the same year a squadron of British vessels did pursue it, and wage a lively scrippmage. However, by excellent seamanship and fins sailing, it escaped, to engage in the spectacular encounter with the Guerrriere off the Grand Banks later. "Originally the Constitution, a ship of 1533 tons, was meant to be a 'two-decker,' but it was cut to the specifications of a frigate. Prigates originally were large open boats without guns, which were devised for use by the Portuguese in the East Indies in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. But the Seven Years War (1756-63) marked the definite adoption of the frigate as a standard class of vessel, coming next to the ships of the line and used for cruising and scouting purposes." 22 NEW OIL WELLS Oil field operations reported the week ending July 26, show 22 new wells started, as compared with 44 during the previous week. Of the 22 notices to drill filed this week, 5 were for wells in the Torrance field, 2 in the Long Beach field, 1 each in Huntington Beach, Dominguez and Montebello fields, 5 in the fields of Ventura county, and 7 in the fields of Kern county. The total new wells this year is 903 as compared with 564. WOOLWINE RESTS PARIS, Aug. 1.—Thomas Lee Woolwine, former district attorney of Los Angeles county, who has been seriously ill here, spent a restful night and showed further improvement today. He is taking regular nourishment but only by the spoonful. He is still so weak from loss of blood thru hemorrhage that his transfer to the American Hospital has again been delayed. Mrs. Blinks was curious about her golfing husband's conduct on the lines. "Willie, do you enjoy caddying for your father?" "Oh, yes, it's lots of fun." "I hope he never uses any—er—naughty words." Well, mother, when he makes a bad shot he sometimes uses a—the feminine of heaven." 22 NEW OIL WELLS Oil field operations reported the week ending July 26, show 22 new wells started, as compared with 44 during the previous week.

FROM CUPIID NEW YORK, Aug. 14 Goats Morner, of Sweden thrower, and fifth hurler Peggy Hopkins Joyce, he for “somewhere in London to collect his scattered recover from the polygonal dealt him by Dan Cupid.

The best of the five. Peggy was the one before the J. Stanley Joyce, young millionaire lumberman. “他 was the finest all—manly, sincere and working. He was very to me. He made me entirely wealthy.” “If I knew then what now,” she added, “I have divorced him.” A title, such as ‘copyright by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.’ WEEKLY REVIEW OF OIL INDUSTRY (By Ellwood J. Munger) thirty-nine gravity oil is the markable discovery made by Superior Oil Company in its well Community well at Rose-Isas. The oil is the lightest utility product yet found in the Angeles Basin County. Superior Maxwell offsets the Union Co.'s Rosecrans on the east and was drilled to 4297 feet. The test of this casing reed the high gravity oil. While oil well appears to have all qualifications of a big producer of a new record high gravity will be several days before age can be installed and a auction test made. The Union Oil Company's Pad-dell well a southeast side test of the Rosecrans field seems established itself a commercial producer and proven up portion of the field east of a street. Upon drilling out the cement and making a production test water shut off at a depth of 3730 feet the well got underway and flowed for a few hours at a 700 barrel rate. The production registered 34 gravity. The well has not shown any water the only difficulty seeming to be with sand. Twice the well was cleaned out and put on production and sanded up both times. The excellent showing made by both the Union's Padelford and the Superior's Maxwell seems to put a little different aspect on the Rosecrans field. Prior to the showings of these wells the big structure of the field was considered to be lying northwest of the Potter or Athena well. Now it seems that there is quite a possibility of the big structure lying southeast of the Potter producer, and the 4970 foot Athena well is then on the northwest edge of the field instead of the southeast as has been quite universally held. Probably the most important wild cat test well now drilling in Southern California is the Sentinel Oil Company's Brown well at a 120th and Chestnut streets, Howard Townside, Athena. This well is out in the forefront of the field and will prove up one way or another hundreds of acres of territory and tell the operators whether the field goes northwest or southeast. Drilling has passed the 3800 mark and so far as can be learned there have not been any important oil or gas showings. On account of the tremendous importance of the well's location the Sentinel Oil Company is not giving out any information on the drilling. The Brea-Richfield-East Coyote field seems able to stage a come back of its own at any time now. Just recently the Union Oil Company plugged back an old and small producer on the Hole lease in the East Coyote district, putting it to producing from an untouched upper sand and got a 900 barrel well. Hole 7 at 2495 feet formerly a 3000 foot producer is a most remarkable well. Originally drilled and put on production ten years ago the well never did better than 300 barrels. It appears that the top sand from whence the big production is now coming was passed up. In addition to top sand production there have been showings in deep test wells that makes the field look exceedingly good. The Union Oil Company's Graham-Loftus 55 is an example, the wet having a most excellent showing at 4753 feet and will no doubt be a splendid producer as soon as the matter is decided.

Co.'s No. 8 to the 4200 mark has found some wonderful looking sand and there is little doubt about some startling news coming out concerning this well before many days. A sigh of relief was heaved by operators and land-owners of Ridcout Helights when the announcement came a few days ago that the McKeon Drilling Co had found something good in the Strong No. 2 well drilled to 4923 feet. From 4500 feet on showings wer eneoted, but the showings were not substantial enough to consider seriously. However, at 4923 feet the McKeon Drilling got a good showing and now preparations are underway for a production test. The same sand that made O'Donnell 6 famous six months ago was found in the McKeon-Strong well at 650 feet deeper and 200 feet northwest. The find makes it appear that the north and western fronts of the field have been marked and that the oil sands dip steeply on these sides of the field. Two wells of importance from the standpoint of production were completed this past week at Torrance. On the Torrance property of the Chansor-Canfield No. 67 was completed, a 1100 barrel well, and the Sentinel Oil Company put its Joughin No. 10 another eastern front well on production at a 1000 barrels. Torrance production ow runs 60,000 bbls. The Union and Shell Co. completed two nice wells at Dominguez. The Shell Company's Reyes 7 finished at 4230 feet started off at 1300 barrels.

Krohn-Blake and Hazzard re-drilling and deepening an old producer the Calokla property have got all the showings and evidence of good production needed at 4127 feet and are making preparations to test out the well. The Petroleum Midway drilling the Richfield-Consolidated Oil completed this past week at Torrance.

Alamitos No. 18 at 4967 feet a 2000 barrel producer and Hutton No. 3 at 4957 feet a 600 barrel well. The production of the Long Beach field is holding steadily at a 159,000 barrels. SEEKS RECOVERY FROM CUPID’DART NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—Count Gonta Mormer, of Sweden, discus thrower, and fifth husband of Peggy Hopkins Joyce, left today for “somewhere in Long Island” to collect his scattered thots and recover from the polignant dart dealt him by Dan Cupid. His bride of two months—the countess — went calmly ahead with her plana to return to the stage, apparently undisturbed over the collapse of her latest romance. A reconciliation?—“never!” de-clared Peggy, emphatically. “Are you really thru with matrimony?” the slim, blonde beauty was asked. Yesterday, she was "thru"—absolutely. But, today Peggy was much more cheerful. "No, I won’t say I won’t marry again. I said it before and I didn’t keep my word," she replied. Peggy pensively revealed the qualities of her five husbands, three of whom were millionaires. The best of the five, Peggy said, was the one before the count—J. Stanley Joyce, young Chicago millionaire lumberman. "He was the finest of them all—manly, sincere and hard working. He was very generous to me. He made me independently wealthy." “If I knew then what I know now,” she added, “I wouldn’t have divorced him.” A title, such as 'countess,' CITY GARDEN ACRES BUILDING ACTIVE Ten or a dozen houses already are going up on City Garden Acres, just beyond Los Alamitos, the poultry colony development in which James E.
