MEXICO HAS MUCH
UNDISCOVERED OIL
Extent Of Production Depends
on Treatment Of Opera
tors, Says Writer.

The extent to which Mexico will con-
tinue as a producer OF oil after the areas
now developed have been exhausted will
depend principally on the attitude as
sumed by the Mexican Government to-
ward the oil producers, according to an
analysis of the Mexican situation con-
tanned IN the current issue of the Lamp,
tho official organ of the Standard OIL
Company. The article points out that,
although It may be true that many OF
the present proved fields may soon pass
out as oil producers, a vast unexhausted
territory lies to the south from which
great things are expected. The southern
fields, which have been such prolific pro-
ducers. II is pointed out. have given up
10 November / grand total Of close to
$50, ZOO, 900 barrels OF petroleum and are
still yielding $4,000 barrels daily.
The salt water menace is characterized
as natural condition easily explained
by geologists." When the last oil has
been forced out of well by the pressure
Of salt water beneath, the article goes
on, the water takes its place and, 1t is
added. "a we'll which delivers from TO-
900 to 10000 barrels n day cannot be
expected to have the producing life of
one in Pennsylvania or the midconti-
ncnt field"
IL QOeS not beclu pToDdplc, says the
writer. that a country so prolific in
petroleum in the narrow strips from
which oil has been Withdrawn and with
seepages showing in many other sec
tions should not have other sources OF
supply that can be developed if the
proper inducecnent Is offered. It should
be understood that the further back
from the seacoast the greater Is the
expense Of producing and moving the Oil.
Under prevailing taxes II would be mani
festly impossible to earn n profit on
the millions of dollars which will be re-
quired to explore. drill. construct roads,
lay pipe lines and take care of all the
other needs of a producing business.
"All of the Oil taken from Mexico to-
day comes from big wells where the
cost a barrel has been down to a
minimum. If Mexico is to continue to
figure It will be necessary to assume
the heavier cost n barrel OF getting
oil from small wells. This work Is not
justified by the prevailing margin Of
profit after paying taxes"
If the Mexican Government, the
article concludes. will lend ENCOURAGE
ment to the producers, It is reasonable to
expect the interests now represented
IN Mexico to provide further sums for
more intensive work in the existing
fields and for pioneering in other locali-
ties.
MEXICO CITY, Dec. lit was stated
semiofficially at the Ministry OF Finance
that Secretary of the Treasury de Ia
Huerta held a conference to-day with
James A. Ryan, Mexico City represen-
tative of the Texas Company, and J.
Iturbide. representing Speyer & Co.,
bankers, regarding negotiations now go

It was said that Secretary de la Huer-

was expecting a satisfactory settlement
for all concerned, having fixed basis
for continuing the conversations.

THE WONDER OF. THE

"Have you ever thought what a
marvellous little machine you have
in your watch?" asks S. Leonard
Bastain, in the December st. Mich
ola "There are at least one hur
dred' and seventy-fve different
parts in the makeup Of the watch.
No less than two thousand and
four hundred distinct operations
have to be gone through during
the process of manufacture. But
even more wonderful are these few
astonishing facts about it.
"Have you ever watched a
blacksmith at work and wondered
how many blows he strikes on his
anvil in the course Of the day? On
a very busy day, the number will
only be several hundred. Compare
this performance with what the
watch does. Each day the roller
jewel of the watch makes $4,000
blows against the fork, or 1877 $780,
600 in the course of year. This
goes on without a single rest if
the watch is in good order. If a
watch were to go for twenty years,

RESPECT THE FLAG

This tribute to the United States
/ flag is offered to the country in
appeal to all men and women of
all races, colors and tongues, that
they may come to understand that
our flag is the symbol of liberty,
and learn to love it. The author
of the sentiment is Alvin M. Owls
ley, acting national director of
the Americanism commission OF
the American Legion.
"When you see the Stars and
Stripes displayed, son, stand up
and take off your hat.
Somebody NAV litter 1t is in
the blood of some to deride all ex-
preston of noble sentiment. You
may blaspheme in the street and
stagger drunken in public places,
and the bystanders will not pay
much attention to you, but if you
should get down on your knees and
pray to Almighty God or if you
should stand bareheaded while y
company of old soldiers marches
by with flags to the breeze, some
people will think you are showing
off.
"But don't you mind. When Old
Glory comes along, salute, and let
them think what they please.
When you hear the band play the
Star Spangled Banner while. you
are in restaurant or hotel din
ing room, get up, even if you rise
alone; stand there, and do not be
ashamed of it either!
"Fop of all the signs and SYM
bols since the world began there is
none so full of meaning as the flag
of this country That piece of
red, white and blue bunting means
five thousand years Of struggle up
wards. 1t is the full-grown flower
of ages of fighting for liberty. 1t
is the century plant of human hope
in bloom.
"Your flag stands for humanity,
for an equal opportunity to all the
sons of men. OF course, we have
not yet arrived at that goal; there
are many injustices among us yet,
many senseless and cruel customs
of the past still clinging to us, but
the only hope of righting the
wrongs of men lies in the feeling
produced in our bosoms by the
sight of that flag.
"Other flags mean a glorious
future. 1t is not so much the
flag of our fathers as it is the
flag of our children, and of all
children's children yet unborn. 1t
is a flag of tomorrow. 1t is the
signal of the, Good Time Coming.
1t is not the flag of your king, It
is the flag of yourself and of all
your neighbors.
Don't be ashamed when your
throat chokes and the tears come,
as you see it flying from the masts
of ships on all the seas or floating
from every flagstaff of the Repub
lie. You will never have worth
ier emotion. Reverence it as you
would reverence the signature of
the Diety.
"Listen, son! The band is play

RIGHT OF WOMEN TO SERVE
ON JURIES WILL BE TESTED.

Frankfort, KY, May II. - The right
of women to serve on juries is the
question involved in the case OF
Adolph Mclaughlin against the Com
monwealth, which was sent to the
Court of Appeals Monday from the
Jefferson circuit court.
Mclaughlin was convicted of the
charge of shooting and wounding and
sentenced to twelve months in pail. He
attempted to secure his release on
habeas corpus proceedings, question
ing the legality of the verdict on the
ground that women could not serve on
juries. The court dismissed the writ,
and the case now comes up on its
merits.
