Diets OIL CUSHERS FOR
FLORIDA

The oil biologists, OF rock hounds"
as they are called in the southwest,
have been 7rying into every nook and
corner of the country for new oil
fields. Wells have been drilled for oil
in nearly every state, but 50 far com
mercial Oh production IS practically
limited 20 on]y sixteen states.
Recently attention has been turn
Ell 10 Florida because OF some new
knowledge concerning the rock fAma-
ZION Of that state. The school books
[ OF a generation ago taught that the
/ Florida peninsular was q vast coral
reef built up through untold time by
! these busy bees of the sea, the coral
pOlype. The logs of numerous wells
drilled for water and competent
studies of scientists have demonstrate
ed that the peninsula is really a fat
arched tongue Of lime stone, a con-
tinuation of limestone beds which
underlie much of the area of the Gulf
S~AN OOOSA 1bAoASAC oSdOCd4u 1SSiOu
These limestone beds with a depres-
sion or break, which forms the strait
which separates the peninsula from
the Island of Cuba, continue south to
the center of Cuba. The recent dis
covery of oil in the Cuban extension
of this limestone formation has at.
tracted attention to the oil possibili-
ties of the Florida formation.
Recent field studies by oil geologists
have demonstrated that the limestone
beds of the peninsula form a broad
anticline, or inverted trough. This
rock structural condition is favorable
for oil pools for it serves to trap and
retain the ascending circulating oil.
Exploration by drilling is planned,
based on the recommendation of oil
geologists. A specially pronounced
''uplift," or structure, is reported in
the north central part of the state.
AT Live Oak, and another near Ocala.

to designate drilling for oil in an un-

REPRESENTATIVE STUART AND
SHERIFF SPENCER

Editor Fank Huffaker of the Tampa
Suburban Sun writes the following
upon matter deeply concerning the
citizens of Tampa:
If A. T. Stuart is guilty of the charge
OF grand larceny, for which he is to
be tried at Lockport. N Y, in Septem-
Der, The Sun hopes he will be con-
victed.
If Mr.. Stuart is not guilty, The Sun
expects and hopes for his exonera-
ton, and that when that expected ex-
oneration comes A. T. Stuart may be
expected TO be one OF the strongest
men in the public life of Florida
Regardless of the outcome of the
trial, however, Sheriff Spencer is be-
ing and will continue to be condemn
ed for the methods resorted to in hav-
ing Stuart arrested at home. and in
the presence of his wife, instead of in
his office, and in refusing to release
him from the county jail under threat
OF suspension, had given the sheriff
twenty minutes in which to do so. Had
Sheriff Spencer devoted equal atten
tiOn 10 arTesting and holding Franklin
MasSherTy, the wiretapper, and 9th
err crooks OF that ilk, who seem to have
gone beyond recall, he would have re-
ceived concentrations instead of the
condemnation that are now being
heaped upon him. Having been and
still being a friend of Sheriff Spencer,
the editor of The Sun sincerely regrets
that every move he has made in re-
cent months has tended towar the
alienation Of his Jaw abiding friends
If Mr.. Stuart, who has wired from
Lockp0rt that he has discovered that
in and was pushed from Tampa, is
guiltlesc-and the general belief is
hat he is guiltless-it is some
commentary upon the officers OF
Hillsborough county that wire-tappers.
gamblers and other crooks seem to
be immune from punishment, while
a man CT Stuarts type is to be made
a victim CT one of the most grueling
experiences through which any nan
n public life in Florida has been tore
ed to pass
The editor of The Sun would up
hold no member of his own family
in crookedness in any form, nor would
he condemn and try to injure an enc
my who was under fire.
Therefore he says:
If A. T. Stuart is guilty let him pay
the full penalty.
If he is guiltless, make the exon
GRAFTON so broad that he will prove
greater power for good in community
and state life than he has been in re-
cent years.
