that gas over the state, but she has
turned up oil and the Oklahoma
Natural must for the present be con-
tent with the supply from the Cor
ton No. l ,aggregating about 10000
900 feet
Oil men are pointing out that the
bringing in of the Gala Belle opens
up possibilities that previously were
too uncertain to be worth much, in
the area between the present east
an dwest limits of the field. While
an accurate test on the wells OF the
west side has been impossible, ow-
ing to the fact that as yet there is
no outlet for the oil, the estimates
based on time pumping into tanks
place the average production around
200 barrels. This goes for the For
tuna No. and the Gladstone. At
the Betty G there has been no test
made, but figuring the length of
time required for the hole to fill
after the swabbing, the Betty is
listed in the present records OF the
field as upwards of 300 barrels.
A test on the Caddo is also lack
ing, but the grade of oil is said to
be the best in the field and from
present indications, there is plenty
of it. The we'll is in an unfinished
state.
The status OF the Gala Belle yes
terday evening was that from every
indication it would be equal to any
other we'll in the field. 1t had not
flowed but reports were to the effect
that it was standing about 1000
feet in oil.
Drilling with a rotary they have
penetrated between 40 and 81 feet
of sand and in addition to the oil,
there is a strong showing Of gas.
The we'll has been washed out and
the workmen were busy last night
runnin ga packer and making every
preparation to put the we'll in its
finished state.
Leasing activity shy-rocketed yes
terday afternoon and was going
higher today At that, the leases
are in no sense out OF sight, in conf
parison with the fabulous prices
other and more thoroughly devel-
oped fields. Indications were how
ever that things are getting set for
an increase that may bring the same
class of stories of riches CLEANED
over night. Local operators were
active yesterday and yesterday af--
ernoon, the first foreign lease buv
ers arrived and started operations. !
It is predicted that in a few days /
the now moderate "dickering" for /
bargains in leases will have given
way to a mad scramble for acreage

luction.

Changes Proposed by Army
Officers.
NO RADICAL DEFECTS FOUND
Secretary Baker Says Difficulties Due
Largely to Inexperienced Person
ncl-GOugrcss to Get Report.
IRY AEnnciniod rrnss.l

WASHINGTON, July 3Q.--One new
article of war and changes in thirty
others have been recommended by the
special board Of officers appointed early
in the war to investigate the army
court martial system. In making this
announcement today Secretary Baker
said he soon would transmit the boards
report to Congress.
Il, may be said" Mr.. Bakers an
nouncement said. that the board. upon
the whole, finds no radical defects In
tho system. and it attributes tine
greater part of the just criticism not
to inherent faults OF tho system, itself
but rather to the Inexperienced per-
sonnet called upon to administer ii At
time of stress when the great thing
was 10 get 100000 men quickly in
shape for the lighting line"
The board was composed of Major
General Il. j. Herman, who organized
the service OF supply in France: Major
General John +. Organ. who com
mnnded the Twentysevcnth National
Guard Division. and Licutenant-C Colonel
served with the Rainbow Division.
Secretary Baker said these officers
were selected after the controversy
over the existing court-inartial syst EN-
began because IL was desired to have
every class OF American opinion repre-
sented. The board invited expressions
OF opinion on the army legal system
from all officers who had exercised
general court martial jurisdiction dur
inS the war, and from all Judge advo-
cacts who had been commissioned and
functioned as such during the same
period"
1t received and analyzed some 2o5
letters, and formulated its own views
