PANHANDLE 0F OKLAHOMA MAY
 PROVE RICHEST
Prediction is Made That Section Will Be Greatest Field in
 West.

l Oklahoma City, Aug. l6.-That , there Is llkely to be much drilling ac- tlVlty soon across the Panhandle of Oklahoma, particularly in a region lymg east ot the gas wells north of Amarillo, is indicated by the fact that practically all likely territory in ieXas Beaver and Clmarron counties
 has been leased
 1t is reported from Guymon that i the Empire Gas and Fuel company has leased 652 tracts in iexas couu- ty alone, and that the company has leased 5,00O,000 acres m that vIclnlty. Some geologlStS are of the Opnion that there is q buried structure there,
 and that 1t extends from the Wichita mountains in Oklahoma to the Rocky mountains. One of them was so en- thuslaStle recently as to say that he predicted the greatest oil field in the 1 West in the Panhandle of Oklahoma
 and Texas.
 One well now is drilling i'll Texas
 county, by the Beaver Oll and Gas company of Kansas, in the northeast of 6-I!-1. J. k. George, president of the First National Bank of Liberal, Kan, is president of the company; E. c. Warfel, formerly an assistant at
 tary, and J. B. Craig, a lumber deal | CT of Liberal, is vice president. !! Some time ago we'll in the vicin- ity of Gate, Okla., was drilled to g. S37 feet and abandoned. A log of the well shows that the red beds were passed through at 1,725 feet. A report signed by Geologist G. N.
 Gould of Oklahoma City, states that from 1,725 feet to 2,S31 feet, where
 drilling ceased, carboniferious rocks were penetrated"
 The Gate we'll was drilled in the northeast of the southeast of 38- -5- 1 2S, Beaver county.

and marketing were combined. as the Standard and q few of the largest in- , dependents have done, the element of hazard was fairly well eliminated and
 profits quite certain to be large. 1 The stocks of the Standard group of companies have increased in mar ket value more than $2,000 00O. .OOO. or 525 per cent, since the combina- ton was dissolved by the courts in 1911. This has taken place in eight years, and in addition the dividends have been from $50,000,000 to $6O,- OO0,000 year, or from 50 to 50 per cent. on the par value of the capital stock of the old company.
 These enormous profits of the Standard Oil companies have gone steadily on despite the invasion of the producing field by innumerable independents, many of whom have grown to great size and strength, but which do not seem to prevent the Standard companies from doing as well as ever. While sweeping state ments are unwise and while no doubt many of the new independents will succeed, yet not a few experts feel oiio0 SIeiSA ollS SCoChS Ol uunlcEouS new companies are selling above their actual values or that the shares of the old, established companies, both Standard and independent, may be selling below their real values.
 Unfortunately not few bankers and brokers of supposedly good standing in the financial community have lent their names to rather ambi- tlous but none the less reckless oil flotations. The danger to the invest or is by no means solely confined to promotions by men of no standing whatever. More responsible persons have been led into sponsoring what may possibly prove ill-advised pro- motions. Oil properties today are selling at the highest prices ever reached. Should the prices for oil products continue at their present levels or go higher, the new compan- les may be able to show fair re- turn on their capitalization, but should prices decline as result of temporary oversupply of oil, it is likely that day of reckoning will come.

GAS COMPANY HUNTS OIL.

The Arkansas Natural Gas com pany (Benedum & Trees) have well good for 200 barrels in the top of the sand in it's No. 2 on the c. U. Con- nellee farm about three miles south east of Eastland. The well found the pay at 3,325 feet and vii probably be drilled in in few days. The first well on the Connellee farm is only good for about 30 barrels after the shot and it looks as though the new producer, about quarter of a mile northwest, has found the real pay in this ct.-Southwestern Oil Journal.

The Company owning valuable leases will sell off acreage as it becomes more / valuable, retaining suffi- cient for drill purposes and making a big field.

Chicago, Feb. ia new thing IS
happening in the unemployment
crisis that faces Chicago, which has
$4,000 jobless men.
For the first time employers, capt.
talists and bankers are recognizing an
workers have jobs.
In all previous unemployment
crisis, the attitude of employers has
been largely that Of Let it alone
and ii will work itself out all right;
the great law of supply and demand
will readjust things"
There is nothing OF that spirit now
in Chicago Big business men meet
with labor leaders and do their best
to work out a plan that will leave
no man unemployed who wants work.
Instead OF blackguarding each other
in separate halls, capitalists and
working men in Chicago are sitting
around the same table and threshing
out reconstruction problems with bare
knuckles.
l was at one of these confabs. Tt
was attended by bankers, manufac-
turers. city officials. college econom-
lists, soldiers and labor leaders. In an
atmosphere thicl<ly charged with to-
bacco smoke, men spoke to each other
with almost brutal frankness.
But progress was made. joint
committee was named which urged
the governor of Illinois to Great an
emergency public works commission
representative of labor, business and
the general public. The idea-it has
been named "the Illinois idea"-is to
develop a state policy with reference
TO public works, and to coordinate
state. municipal and federal projects.
This gives the spirit of the meet
ing:
When H. n. Merrick, president of
the Association of Commerce, said:
"Bolshevism will never show it's ugly
head and the red flag will never wave
in Chicago If we all stand together as
we are today" John H. Walker of the
union labor reconstruction board
jumped up and shouted:
That's fine, but remember that
food given in charity does no good
disagree with Hoover that food will
stop unrest in Europe or elsewhere.
Go ahead with public works-that will
help-but unless labor gets fair deal

door.

TWO RATHER PERTINENT QUESTIONS.
The National Livestock Association must have
snickered when Clay Tallman, commissioner of
the general land office addressed it's Denver ses
sion to this effect
There are two hundred million acres of idle
western states fail to rise to their opportunity
and develop the livestock industry to it's maxi
mum possibility the east will turn to these lands
or to importation from abroad for its meat sup
ply and the west will suffer in consequence"
Really, Uncle Kitchel Pixley, some other old
hograiser ought to have asked that general land
office man two questions, to-wit:
If the east with all that idle land in the rain
belt, doesn't like western bacon at 70 cents and
western beef at as, why doesn't it go to raising
hogs and cattle on that land?
If there's 2OO 200, 900 acres lying around idle,
why doesn't the government, by communicating
or taxing, set it to producing?
In fact, Mr.. Tallman's threat isn't an indict-
ment of the western meat raiser. It's indict-
ment of our fool way of doing things.
The eastern states have plenty of money, plen-
ty of idle land, plenty of jobless and are hun
CRY for meat. And the best solution government
officials can offer is to scare the western meat
raiser into producing so much meat as to lower
his prices What merry ha-ha the eastern tool
maker cloth-maker would put up over such a
proposition.

ARE WAGES TOO HIGH?

ARE WAGES TOO HIGH?
The oracles that speak from the sacred pre-
cincts Of privilege declare that wages too
high. Profound interviews soemnly pronounce
Prosperity waits for falling wages"
There have even been whispers that an army
of unemployed would not be unwelcome. This
these inviters of disorder hope would lower
wages to where profits would be more plenty On
this text many Bolshevist sermons have been
preached and many converts made.
Wages are the keystone of our industrial arch.
To pry and pound at it when the arch still
tren1bles from the upheavals of war endangers
the whole structure
Cutting wages will produce a panic GER
tainly setting fire to gunpowder will produce
an explosion. Now is not good time for those
who are interested in the preservation of present
social institutions to invite panic.
Panics arise from inadequate markets. A ten
per cent wage cut wipes out the equal of our
whole foreign market. Many wars have been
waged to extend foreign markets. A proposal
to close ports to exports would use the threat
of revolution from hose who look to that market
for profits. Then what about a ten per cent
wage cut, in these parlous times, to those who
look to wages for their very life?
A stop thief cry has been raised to cover this
attack upon wages. Organs of privileged profit
teering coined the epithet, Labor profiteer."
The phrase carries the charge that the rise of
wages has been unfair and reasonable as the
extortionate exploitation by corporations that
made the worlds extremity their personal OPP
portunity.
Emphatic repetition may have convinced the
unthinking that the charge is proven.
Plain facts confute the charge.
From 1914 to 1918 the wages of organized
workers rose 27 per cent. During the same period
~
charged with profiteering it was suffering re-
duction in wages The apparent prosperity was
due to more continuous employment.
The figures are gathered by the United States
Department of Labor They are confirmed by
all other statistics on the subject. No one dis
putes them.
The money wages of unorganized and I'M
skilled labor increased even less. Those of sal
arled and unorganized workers rose least of all.
With few carefully and widely exploited excep-
tons actual wages went steadily lower during
the war.
Ii these figures not available it would
still be possible to summon the sums the work.
ing children and the tables of infant mortality to
give eloquent and unanswerable testimony to the
existence of wages that fail to make possible a
decent human existence.
This should end the talk of labor profiteer-
ing
1t should also settle the question of the reduc-
ton of wages.
The reason man has less than he needs
is because another has more than he deserves.
In case of tie, the deciding vote is cast by the
worlds greatest fleet.
In this practical world fool and his credulity
are soon parted.
Surely we will have peace with Germany if
every interested nation gets piece of Germany.
The ambition of one people to boss another is
great help to the crutch-making industry.
