California Petroleum

The annual report of the California
Petroleum Corporation and subsidiary
companies as telegraphed to Wall
Street from San Francisco yesterday,
shows gross earnings of $4,621,654,
compared with $4,154,354 in 1918 and a
surplus after preferred dividends and
other charges Of $431,1 ,132, against
$303,282 in 1918. The increase in
operating expenses for 1919 over 1918
was due largely to the increased ac-
tivties in development work and to
an increased wage scale as determined
by the Presidents commission and the
committee of oil and gas operators. All
amounts expended for lease rentals
and for incidental drilling cost of new
wells were charged directly to operat-
ing expenses. The company's Mexican
properties are reported to be in the
same condition as the preceding year,
no development work having been at
tempted owing to unsettled conditions
in Mexico

Operations in Louisiana

Despite rumors that the wells in the
Claiborne field are rapidly turning to
salt, and that calamity is overtaking
the North Louisiana oil fields, Caddo,
Claiborne and Bull Bayou continue to
gush forth oil in quantities which
promise to make the Pelican State one
of the leading producing areas of the
whole country, according to "The Oil
City Derrick" 1t is stated that not
only is the yield holding up, with new
wells coming in almost daily, but some
of the gushers which came in originally
with a production of from 10000 to
10000 barrels in the Homer field are
coming back strong. coil men," says
''The Derrick. throughout the coun-
try are watching the action of the
wells in Claiborne with keen interest.
Operators who have large sums in
vested in the fields are constantly ex-
tending their operations and declare
they feel certain that the Homer pool
will prove one of the most productive
and longest-lived of all pools"

Money and Credit

Bankers reported that call money
was loaned at Is per cent yesterday,
although the high rate officially re-
ported by the Stock Exchange was ID
surprise in brokerage circles, as it was
felt that Tuesday was the crucial day
this week in view of the $20,O00,000 of
government Withdrawals on that date
Further Withdrawals are expected to-
morrow. 1t was stated at the Federal
Reserve Bank that they would total
approximately $8,000,000. Another fac
tor contributing to the current tight
ness of call money is the fact that
checks received by the government in
payment of income taxes are now pass

ume.

A Bankers View on Money

An officer Of one Of the largest COM
mercial banks in the country predicts
continued firmness in money rates until
we'll into June. He bases his predic-
ton upon the increased demands upon
the credit supply in connection with
the crop planting season now at hand.
The farmer needs money to put his
crops into the ground, just as he needs
money later to harvest those crops.
This demand usually lets up around
June. The banker believes that barring
unexpected developments, period of
comparative ease in money should be
experienced from June on, until the
fall demands begin to be felt.

Washington, Sept, 7.-One of the most interesting exhibits of the thousands in the world war collection now being gath cred at the National Museuf is the "Or- der of Battle" map used by General Per shing in directing the movements of the American forces in France. The wall map, Sx10 feet in size, together with the walls, floor and furniture of the room in which it hung at American head quarters at Chaumont, was transferred to the museum by the War department at the request of the General.
 The map was brought to Washington and installed in the museum by the ser geant and three enlisted men of the headquarters staff who kept it corrected and guarded it throughout the war. A Chaunont the map, when not in use, was concealed by a sliding section of wall which is installed in the same manner in the museum. The map shows in a vivid fashion the exact situation at the hour the armis- tice was signed with reference to the strength and location of all divisions, both enemy and allied on the western | front, the correct battleline. the names and location of comm Anding officers and l locations of headquarters and army l oundaries. There also is a considerable

Many of the exhibits are now 1 crowded into the ground floor of the new 1 National Museum building while others are in the old building and few of the l artillery pieces are in the open air 1 awaiting the construction of suitable shel- 1 ter. William Dec Ravenal, the director | of the museum, says Congress probably will be asked at the next session to pro. vide building for the collection which | is of great historical value.
 The airplane exhibit includes all types of American and French planes useC 1 extensively in combat, pursuit and
