ENFORCEMENT OF
MEXICAN REGISTRY
LAW is PROTESTED
Mexican Edict Will Result
in Industrial Paraly-
cation.

Tampico, Mex, March e4.-Serious
industrial shut-downs and the elimina-
ton of numerous trains from railroad
schedules are expected TO result be-
cause of the insistance of A. Aguirre,
secretary of the department of COM
Eunication and public works, that oil
companies having tanktrs engaged in
coastwise trade, comply with the law
of October IL. 1895, and place such
ships under Mexican registry. Presi-
dent Oregon has given 80 days from
February 81. in which to comply with
the law and Aguirre so far has re-
fused TO answer communications from
the companies on the subject as he
holds that the law is clearly defined.
Due to the scarcity of nationalized
ships before the World War and the
transportation crisis during that pc
Rod. the law. though an old one, was
never enforced. Foreign ships we're
granted special dispensations.
But it is the contention now that
with changed conditions and the
abundance of tankers, that the law
should be enforced. For some time. the
only ships allowed to traffic between
Mexican ports. except those flying the
Mexican flag. have been tanLcrs.

5000-BARREL WELL
PROVES NEW FIELD
IN TOPHA DISTRICT
Producer Deepest Ever
Brought in for Tam
pico Section.

Topila, V. C., March 24.-The dis
covery of new oil field is the result
of the bringing in of well No. 1, lot
ia, Quebrache, by the Globe Petrol
cum Company at depth of 3016 feet,
the deepest at which commercial produc-
ton has ever been obtained in the
Tampico district. The well was origi-
nally started by the National Petrol
cum Company and sold to its present
owners. 1t had been shut down for
many months because of the tremend-
Gus pressure of gas in which there was
no indication of oil.
The latter part of February, when
an attempt was made to open it with
the idea of deepening, the pressure of
HOO pounds per square inch blew off
the valve, carrying with it the top
of the top joint of casing. 1t was
estimated as making 2J.00O,000 cubic
feet of gas per day. After three weeks
work. the casing was repaired and the
valve replaced.
On March II, the gas showed a
slight trace of oil which has steadily
increased with no lessening in the
volume of gas pressure. At present it
is making 1000 barrels of 1876 gravity
oil and gives every indication of In
creasing to far greater production.
The well is ten kilometers from the
nearest production here in Topila.
where the gravity Of the oil is but 14.2
degrees. But one other well was ever
drilled in the hacienda, completed in
1915, a dry gasser, at 1913 feet.
To the east, in Lomo del Pozo, about
seven kilometers, the American Fuel
Oil Company completed a well in 1917
for an estimated 600 barrels of oil,
water and basic sediment, with TO-
100000 cubic feet of gas.
This property was taken over by the
Sinclair who are drilling in the ha-
cienda on No. 2, shut down at 3070
feet because Of gas estimated at 15,-
600, 600 feet daily.
