FED-STATE
OFFICE TO
BE- OPENED
Will Operate Hero During April
on Short Funds; Relief from
G. of G. in May and June
Expected.

That the office of the Federal
state employment bureau which was
closed last Saturday for lack of
funds, will be open for business
again Monday morning, was the
statement made today by Chas. e.
Day, superintendent in charge. The
office is located at 227 1-2 Chickasha
avenue.
Mr. Day returned yesterday from
Oklahoma City, where he conferred
with state headquarters and where
arrangements were made to partially
care for the expense of operating
the office here for one month. The
support to be secured from the
state office is not sufficient to care
for all the expenses here during
April Mr.. Day stated, but realizing
the necessity of maintaining the To-
cal branch, he will risk meeting the
other expense he stated.
At recent meeting of represen-
tative Chickasha interests, a recon-
mendation was made to the Chamber
of Commerce that that body set
aside sufficient funds to maintain
the office during the months of May
and June while the wheat harvest
is on and it is expected that by
July l, funds will! be available from
federal sources.
"The more l thought about the
proposition, the more / realized that
the office should be kept open dur
ing April for the reason that to close
it up would mean that the organiza-
ton would go to pieces" said Mr..
Day.
81 went to Oklahoma City and
made arrangement whereby a part
of expenses for April will be taker
care Of by the state office. Every
one of the nine offices in the state
will remain open. They are largely
/ like the Chickasha office, operating
during April on practically nc
money, but it's a necessity and il
the others can do it, so can l."

age at Gala Belle.

The report circulated few days
ago that the Langston test in the
southern part of Grady countq, 32.
3n-6w, on the Milwee farm, was a
rig again was anticipating the actiy.
ity at that well by about a week. G..
M. Langston, Of that company, an
nounced this morning that rig TIM
bers are on the ground and the rig
builders will be on the job Wednes-
day to put up the derrick. 1t is to
be a sc foot affair and a combina-
tion rotary and standard.
In the fire that burned the rig
some weeks ago, only minor parts
of the tools were injured, Mr.. Langs-
ton stated. He estimates that they
will be drilling there inside of two
weeks, allowing a week from next
Wednesday to complete the rig. This
well is down about 22OO feet and the
hole is in good shape.
NOthu SlSPHcHS OOunIYs
The rig of the Triumph Oil and
Gas company in north Stephens
county IS to be rebuilt at once Mr..
Langston stated This is also a
Langston proposition. The rig in
35-2n-7w was blown down some time
ago. They were drilling with a rota-
ry and had made about 800 feet of
hole before the rig went down. Rig
builders are at work on the derrick
now an dthey should be drilling there
in ten days. Mr. Langston states.
In Cement Field.
In the Cement field operations ara
continuing unabated, according to ad.
vices received from the field this
morning.
Fortuna No was drilling yester-
day evening the contractors having
about 80 feet yet to go to complete
their contract. 1t is stated that they
are intending to drill the well in
with cable tools
The Expansion people, DR.. Van
Pittman and Graham, in 1860, are
drilling and have made probably 200
feet of hole.
Concrete Petroleum company in l.
%? a Gorton company, has spudded
in and are grinding away with the
big rotary used in the Gala Belle
well.
Hard luck has again overtaken the
/. w. Williams test in 1869. They
have an underreamer stuck and may
rave to pull their entire string of
casing to eliminate the trouble. This
will doubtless delay the bringing in
of the well from 10 days to two
weeks.
Work is progressing rapidly on the
rig of Reed No. 1 in 1859. 1t
should be completed by tonight or
carly next week. 1t is understood
that work is to start there at once.
