 WHO IS WITHOUT FUNDS

The funeral service for the late Judge Wm. O'Connor was held in the A. B. Hall, Chitina, the Rev. D. P. Ziegler officiating. A large number of people attended and the beautiful Episcopal service was very impressive. The song, Lead Kindly Light was the opening hymn, chosen because the de- ceased had many times expressed his appreciation of the beautiful thoughts expressed by the words. The beautl- ful old song Asleep in Jesus" was sung as g duet by Mrs. c. H. Philips, soprano and Mrs. Joseph Eetchum alto, accompanied by Mrs. c. A. Nel, son at the piano and Mrs. M. s. Will son. violin with muted strings.
 The Rev. Ziegler reviewed the life of Judge O'Connor briefly end eulo gized his gifts of mind and bic sincere patriotism His life was vigorous and forceful to it's very end, in it's 69th year. His son Lewis was the only member of the family present. The evening was wonderfully calm and lovely and service at the grave very impressing in the soft evening llgh' on Cemetery Hill, overlooking the Copper and Chitina Rivers.
 May he rest in peace.

GUATEMALA INVITING

Favorable results of recent tests on the west in Mexico make North Gen. tral Guatemala an inviting region for oil prospectors, geologists declared Oil territory in Nicaragua aud Hon. duras is greatly restricted, but the coastal plan of Costa Rica has lately received considerable attention from geologists, with promise of good re- suits. Prospective oil territory also is limited in Panama.
 Government geologists" investiga- tions show that oil interests in South America now lie chiefly in the belt embracing the Andean system in the northern and western regions of the continent. In northern South Ameri- ca principal oil regions are believed to be in inter-mountain valleys and on the eastern flank of the Ande2n region.
 Presence of new oil sources in Car J ibbean costal plan is unqeustioned, but may be delayed because of geological obstacles. The Pacific Coastal plan region is said to be capable of yield ing large supplies of oil, in Ecuador and Peru, and the coast basins may prove to be a source of oil in Chile. In the southern half Of the continent the inter-mountain valleys are fewer, and in Bolivia and to the southward the interest of the oil geologist will lie chiefly in the eastern foothills Of the Andes.

UNITED STATES LEADER IN OIL
 DEVELOPMENT

WASHINGTON, June 1.--The Unit veloping new petroleum fields, under the present program of American geo. logists. The governments own geolo- gists have been thrown out into new areas on the North and South Amer ican continents, searching for new oil sources. These experts warn that the oil supply of the future will diminish fast unless new oil fields in Latin America are soon found and devel- oped.
 Extensive geological surveys are to be made of the Latin American re- publics to determine the location and extent of new and valuable petroleum resources. American engineers are on the ground in Colombia. British ex- perts are also there, but Americans have the inside track at this time. Colombia is regarded as q fertile field for exploitation and for geological study
 In Colombia the plan contenplates the mapping and examination of the upper part of the Magdalena Valley and the regions adjoining the far western Venezuela border, and espe- cially the southern inter-mountain val leys and foothills of the east flank of the Andes.
 Government surveys of the oil wealth of the continent thus have de- veloped these salient points:
 In Mexico the oil resources in the ground which the recoverable by pres ent methods are estimated at 4,5OO,- OOO,000 barrels from the discovered fields, and are estimated to be about 5,75O, 00O from all fields.
