Editor Yerington Times.
Complying with your request for
brief article relating to the oil posi-
blities in our much talked of district,
submit the following
In the year 1919, one OF the old
and never firing prospectors, general
~ known by the name of Frank Bug
bee, awakened the minds of the peo-
pie in and around Yerington. to the
possibilities of oil i'll commercial
quantities being hidden i'll the depths
of the Pine Grove district Other
good and reliable prospectors immedi-
ately got busy and located what is
called Coal Valley. The Pine Grove
| district is situated about Is miles in a
southerly direction from Yerington,
and the Coal Valley is situated about
40 miles south, between the Morgan
ranch, and the Aldrich grade, near
| ing the California state line.
From the extreme northern bound
airy of the Pine Grove district to the
foot of the Aldrich grade something
like 10000 acres of oil bearing land
has been located under the old placer
laws, and great many have taken up
under the oil leasing bill and applied
for prospector's permit
There are a number of companies
| Ia,, 10
Mason Valley Oil & Gas Company,
Wassuk Oil & Gas Company, Pizen
Switch Oil & Gas Company and
others.
One permit has been granted to a
private person and the Wassuk Oil &
Gas Company, which has 2,4OO acres
in the Coal Valley, has been notified
that their prospector's permit was
granted on the I'D of October, but
has not been received by the company.
Don't overlook the fact that the next
big oil boom will be i'll Nevada. For
several years past this has been spok-
ell OF by eminent biologists as being
an oil bearing district.
1t is fact today that practically
every oil field i'll America is falling
considerably behind in the amount of
production as compared with last
year. In Pennsylvania, Kansas, and
Oklahoma the output is much lower
than it was one year ago. Producers
now look forward expectantly to Ne
vada with her rich Falon oil district
to adequately take care of the con-
stantly increasing demand.
With these vital facts in mind is it
not reasonable to predict, that in this
district, where the indications are more
in evidence than they are in the Falon
field, that the time is near for all
to put their shoulder to the wheel and
all that are interested in this district
help one another.
The writer has charted most OF the
land and you are invited to come to
the office of the Wassuk Oil & Gas
Company and | will only be too glad
to give the reuired information, and
you are under no obligation in any
way

THE JEWISH MONITOR
LONDON TIMES CORRESPOND.
ENT DEFEATED IN ATTEMPT
TO MAKE PROPAGANDA FOR
BALACHOvITCH.

Warsaw, Nov. IS Especial cable to
l. J. P. B.)-Mr. Duke, the corre-
spondent Of the London Times, ar
rived in Warsaw sfter tour through
territory occupied by General Bal
achovitch. He paid a visit to the
Jewish Literary Society to make
propaganda among the Jewish Jour
nalists for General Balachovitch. In
a speech made for the purpose, the
journalist made the statement that
the general has changed his policy
with reference to Jews. General
Balachovitch," said Mr.. Duke, "is
not politician but a soldier. As he
was angry at the Jews, he allowed
pogroms to be made, but having con-
cluded that such was foolish and fu-
tile, he has changed his attitude and
is now friendly to Jews" The gen.
eral was said to have permitted spe-
cial Jewish formations within his
army. Mr.. Duke clso stated that
while he was at he headquarters Of
General Balachovitch a deputation of
Jews from Turov came to the gen.
eral to thank him for his good treat
ment Of the Jewish population.
Immediately after Mr.. Dukes
speech, one Of the Jewish journalists
present at the meeting produced a
letter just arrived from Turov, which
had the following comment:
P0GROM IN TUROv.
A pogrom, arranged by Bal
achovitch's army, broke out in
Turov. Thirteen Jews were
killed. The whole city was rob-
bed, many women violated. The
Jewish Kehillah Of Turov appeals
for immediate relief.
Before there was any chance to
conclude the reading Of the letter, Mr..
Duke decided to leave the meeting.

it to them for a definite or indefinite
period! And finally, shall we exer-
else, or refrain from exercising, some
measure Of control over their opera
tons?
An answer to these questions Is
contained in the action recently taken
by the Joint Distribution Committee
IN the case Of the Jewish co-operatives
OF Rumania mostly located in the
former Russia province Of Bessara-
bia.) The committee placed two hun.
dred thousand dollars at the disposal
OF its regional director in Rumania
and authorized him to lend It at hi,
discretion to the Jewish co-operatives
there at rate Of interest not to ex.
coed 5 per cent. Ordinary loans are
to be granted for q period Of five
years, payable in installments begin
ming with the third year; building
loans are to be granted for a period
Of ten years, payable in installments
beginning with the fifth year. The
co-operatives may in turn lend this
money to their members and charge
them any rate Of interest, subject to
the approval Of the regional director,
to whom they must likewise submit
a monthly report Of their activities.
Should this arrangement prove sat-
isfactory, the committee will make
further appropriations for this pur-
pose.
Here, we believe, Is an admirable
solution Of this question. BY charg-
ing interest and limiting the time of
the loan, we give to the whole affair
the aspect Of a business transaction,
and thereby impress the co-operatives
with an added sense Of responsibility.
And the medium Of supervisory con-
troll to be exercised by our direct rep
resentative will act as a further safe
guard against hasty action by them,
without at the same time encroaching
upon their freedom Of action.
w.
In the course Of these remarks we
have appraised the extent Of the de-
vastation wrought by the war among
the Jews Of Eastern Europe, and
shown that the only way to help them
Is through reconstruction carried out
by the Jewish co-operatives there with
our means and under our supervision.
II only remains for us to point out to
the Jews Of America, that now more
than ever must there be no slackening
Of our efforts in behalf Of our afflict-
ed brethren overseas, that now more
than ever we must uphold the hands
Of our great relief agency, the Joint
Distribution Committee.
We all respond to cry for imme-
date relief. Who can remain deaf to
the cry Of the hungry, the homeless,
the orphani But there Is a kind Of
need which, though less spectacular,
Is equally urgent; nay, is even more
so. For greater than to give a poor
man bread is II to give him the means
wherewith to earn his bread. God help
those who help themselves, we say;
but by helping our brethren help
themselves, we, too, may share this
divine virtue. And, for the first time
