SANTA FE COUNTY GETS
ITS FIRST "GASSER'

The first strike OF natural gas in
Santa Fe county was made last
Thursday when a flow was struck
in the well being drilled bv the Toll
tee Company south OF Galisteo at
a depth Of about $50 fcet
This well is located on land be
longing TO Governor B. F. Pankey
and is the third to be drilled by the
Toltec Company in this county. be
sides two others in other counties.
This strike is lust another evid-
ence that New Mexico will become
a producer of oil and gas when fur
ther developed.
Already sufficient gas has been
developed in San Juan county for
Industrial purposes. two or three .
or 30 barrel wells have been develop
ed in the Peoos valley. a dozen shall
low wells have pumping capacity
Of eight or ten barrels in Mckinley
county. and half dozen other Gown
ties have small quantities in from,
one TO three places II IS oniv a
m7tter OF time until a big producer
will be brought IN somewhere IN the
state. then there viii be intensive
development and hundreds OF pro-
ducers. and the price OF leases and
lands will soar.

DECLINE IN PRICE OF
OIL ONLY TEMPORARY

The cost of producing any COM
modify has only remote Influence
-upon the price Demand is much
more important. The fall in the price
of crude oil is not the result of anv
ascertained decline in the cost of
producing it Nor is it the result
of decreased demand. On the con-
trary the demand is insistently in
creas ng, all over the world, much
faster than the supply is increasing.
All authorities are agreed upon this
fact
The present decline in oil is alb
normal and can only be temporary.
The explanation is entirely financial.
In the past panics gold bars have
been unsalabIe while legal tender
ereenbacks were f-antically sought
at high premiums. This was because
creditors could be compelled to ac-
cent preenback when thev could not
be compelled to accept bars.
The slump in crude oil in the mid
continent fed is enormously helD-
ing the automobile industry and is
rapidly stimulating The consumDtion
OF gasoline. In this respect the
slump is producing its own cure and

TO CUT OUT POLITICS
FROM RESERVE SYSTEM

Washington, d. c., March 30-Eli-
mination of the Secretary of the IRE
asury and the Comptroller of the
Treasurer from membership on the
Federal Reserve Board is contem-
plated by legislation which Represen-
tative L. T. McFadden, chairman of
the House Committee OIL Banking
and Currency, will introduce in the
special session.
This action is the result of high
handed interference with the reserve
system by these two officials under
the Wilson administration, and is in
tended to prevent in the future. Nc
Fadden says:
with a view to correcting mis-
takes of the past and to provide
against a recurrence of similar con-
ditions affecting our financial sts-
tenn and credit necessary to finance
industry and commerce, | am sug-
gesting an amendment to the Fed
eral Reserve Act, a careful scrutiny
and understanding of which ! believe
will convince anyone of its sound
ness At the present time the Fed
eral Reserve Board is composed OF
seven members, five of whom are
appointed by the President OF the
United States by and with the ad-
vice and consent of the Senate. The
remainder two members are the Sec
retary of the Treasury and the
Comptroller of the Currency. who are
members ex-officio. While, there
fore, the Federal Reserve Board is,
as pronounced by the Attorney Gen
eral of the United States. separ-
ate and independent establishment OF
the Government and not a Bureau
of the Treasury Department, it is
partly subject to the control of in
fluence of the Treasury Department
because of the fact that two of ITS
members are Treasury officials. In
deed, the Federal Reserve Board has
become little more than a Bureau oi
the Treasury.
much of the criticism that has
been directed from time to time
against the organization and action
OF the Federal Reserve Board is bas-
ed upon the fact that it is not COM
pIetelv independent of the Treas
urv Department influence. and, in a
certain sense. political influence. And
the Federal Reserve System should
be fec from political influence
which is quite as important as its
irdcnerderce of domination BY fin
ancial combinations. am propos'
irn. therefore, to eliminate the Sec
rotary OF tie Treasurv and thC
Comntroller Of the C-rrencv from
membership in the Federal Reserve
BOARD and to increase the number
of appointed members of that Boarc
from five to seven
