POSSIBLE OIL AND GAS
In New Mexico Indicated By U. S. Geo
logical Survey.

In an examination of the geologic
structure Of parts of New Mexico made
during the last four years by the United
States geological survey, department OF
the interior, n II. barton, geologist has
discovered in the beds of rock many
domes and arches that may be reservoirs
of oil or gas if these substances are pres
emit in the regions examined, These
fexed beds are parts OF formations that
produce oil in Wyoming, Oklahoma, Kan
sas. and Texas, but little evidence of the
presence of oil and gas in them has vet
been found in New Mexico. A small
amount of oil at Dayton and few seeps
and traces of oil reported In water wells
at several other places are the only fa-
vorable Indications so far reported. Only
a few deep wells have been bored in New
Mexico. however, and these have been
bored in places where the structure was
not favorable for the occurrence of oil
or gas. or the wells have not been drilled
deep enough to make them satisfactory
tests Much of the geologic guidance
used in locating the wells drilled has
come from incompetent experts, one
dome" having been dedueed from hap
hazard dips taken from layers of cross
bedded sandstone. One probably hope
less project il deep hole in the middle
of Tularosa desert, where there are no
rock outcrops to indicate structure. In
some of the hectic literature written to
promote the sale of oil stock the chief
qeologist Of the United States geological
survey il falsely quoted as authority for
the statement that New Mexico would
develop one of the biggest oil fields on
this continent There is no foundation
for such statement.
Some Promising Domes and Arches
The general structure of eentraI.east
ern New Mexico Is that Of an eastward
dipping monocline, but there are local
reyersals Of dips due to domes and
arches, or anticlines, some of which are
rather prominent. Only a few of the
many localities where these structural
features appear to be favorable to the
storage of gas or oil, if either exists in
this region, can be mentioned here. In
Guadalupe county, for example, the apex
of one Of the most clearly marked domes
is in the westeentral part of 7. II n, r.
10 Il. The uplifted beds, which are $500
feet thick, are of Permian and Pennsyl-
vanian age, the Pennsylvania beds ly.
ing on granite at vertical depth Of
1000 feet or more On Pintada creek, in
the center Of T. 8 NJ, r. 10 f., there is
smaller dome involving the same stra-
Ia, and slightly less pronounced dome
is indicated in the same canyon few
miles above Pintada postoffice There
are several broad. low arches in this
county and in adjoining parts Of San
Miguel, the next county north. In Quay
| county broad low anticlne in the red
beds passes short distance east of Tu-
cumari and extends for some distance

TOGOT HEAVY
WITH TOBACCO
w. II. Galiep, Of Jarvisburg to
: PUT IS Acres I'm Popular

w. H. Gallop. one of the most enter
prising and far-seeing farmers in Curri-
tuck county. will put rs acres of new
ground into tobacco next year, growing
tobacco on a larger scale than ever be-
fore attempted by any one in this i'm
mediate section.
Experiments here and there in Curri-
tuck county have shown that tobacco
will thrive in that soil and climate. S.
7. Payne. of Point Harbor, in the lower
section of Currituck county, grew two
and a half acres of tobacco this year. Mr..
Payne recently sold this tobacco for ST.
10000.
Mr.. Gallop has been watching. these
experiments with interest and has given
the cultivation and cure of tobacco con-
siderable study. He is not at all tim1d
about going into the planting of COM
paratively large acreage as pioneer. He
believes that he can cultivate the entire
crop of IS acres with one mans labor.
Other big farmers in this section are
going in for tobacco. G. o. Robinson. of
this city, owner of a number of big farms
in this and nearby counties is convinced
that tobacco is the coming money crop
of this section. While tobacco farmers
in other sections of the state are getting
a return of S4O0 to the acre on tobacco,
farmers Of this section think they are
doing we'll when they get S1OO an acre
from cotton.

POLICE GET AFTER =.
AUTOISTS INCF4URCH
Break Up Practice Of Parking Automo-
biies or Both Sides of Streets
at Churches

The appearance of policeman in uni
form at the First M. e. Church South
in this city Sunday morning created
something of a sensation when the word
spread that he was after those who had
violated the traffic laws by parking their
cars Ga both sides of the stree in front
of the church. No arrests were made.
The police served notice on the congre-
CATION thru the pastor that no arrests
would be made in this instance, but that
arrests would follow if the Methodist
brethren didn't conform to the laws. 1t
las oeen customary to park cars on both
sides of the street in front of churches
aid the police served notice Sunday that
not even church goers would be exempt
from the new traffic laws requiring au-
tomobilists to park on one side OF the
street only.

Two street fights and probably three
law suits have grown out of a dispute
over a Fox Trot or a Shimmy Wobble

costs of the action. After the trial he
end young Commander buried the hat
chet and shook hands. A few minutes
after the love feast E. S. Chesson, Sr.

assaulted him. Not satisfied with GRIM
nal prosecution against the Senior Ches-
son. young Commander has started a
civil action for damages. Commander
sustained several scratches about the
neck when Mr.. Chesson laid hands on
him.

E. CITY MERCHANTS.
OPPOSE REGULATIONS
Merchants of the State Gathered at Ra-
. leigh to Protest Against Govern
menf Control of Profits

Elizabeth City merchants were well
800 retail dealers with Federal Food Di-
rector Henry A. Page in Raleigh, this
week. The conference was to try to
reach an agreement on the margin of
profits to be charged by retail merchants.
Nothing was settled by the conference,
but a number of committees have been
set to work in a new attempt to reach
an agreement, .xs.zsv>
The case of the merchants was stated
by VIM. Perlstein who said he wished
to lay facts and figures before the con-
ference to convince that the merchants
of the State are not profiteering in gen.
eral, that the merchants are not respon-
sible for the high cost of labor, that
their profits have in no way kept pace
with the accumulation of wealth by others
and that a readjustment or rearrange-
ment of the margin of profit will not
bring prices down.
He said the government had put it's
stamp of approval on a margin of pro-
fit of not under so per cent, and cited
instances in support of his statement.
"A maximum profit or a minimum
profit will encourage trickery, deception
and unethical business methods" said
Mr.. Perlstein limitation of profit
would be the ruination of the merchants,
he asserted. as it would drive away things
that the people want in the line of nov
elites and would force the merchants to
handle only the staple articles.
Emphasis was placed on attorney Gen
eral Palmer's statement that there had
been an Investigation of the merchants
profits and that only one per cent OF
the merchants were found charging large
profits. Those large profits due to nee
essary replacement value and could not
be construed as profiteering.
Mr.. Page stated that the merchants
were not at fault in the prices being
so high, that labor conditions and pro-
ducing costs compelled the retailer to
sell at higher prices. He said that the
reason the retail merchants were called
on to reduce prices was not because they
were getting too much profit, but because
! they were the weakest of the chain that
handled the product and they wanted
to make a start even if they began or
the roof and built down which is very
impractical and really unfair to the hon.
est merchants of our State.
! 1t was shown that the reduction ca!leG
for would mean curtailment of business
) and even bankruptcy.
No charges of profiteering have beer
brought against any Elizabeth City mer
chant.

IN ELIZABETH CITY
Mccabe g. Grice Report Many Norfolk
Customers Attracted by Elizabeth
City Prices

Elizabeth City stores are doing a re-
cord breaking business this fall. J. T.
McCabe, of McCabe & Grice tells this
newspaper that his sales this season
are nearly double the sales of former
seasons. McCabe & Grice have had un-
usually busy days since the announce
ment in this newspaper last week of Mr..
McCabe's spectacular purchase of $780,
600 worth of women's wear at reduc-
ton of-33 1-3 per cent. of the mnaufac-
turer's original cost.
Much trade is coming to Elizabeth
City these days from Norfolk. Hun
dreds of Norfolk people, formerly resi-
dents of this and section are coming
to Elizabeth City to buy their fall and
winter merchandise, and getting better
values for their money and lower prices
than they can get in Norfolk. Mr.. Nc
Cabe tells this newspaper that some OF
the biggest bills sold at his store this
season were sold to Norfolk customers.
