VALUABLE OIL
SHALE DEPOSITS
EXIST IN STATE
Report Shows Rock Is Found
in Various Parts of
Indiana,

Development of Indiana's cil-shale
resources is seen in a statistical re-
port on assays of the New Albany
sbale formation by John R. Reeves
of the department of geology at In
diana University, made public today
by the United States Bureau of Mines.
Reeves, assisted by the State de-
partment of conservation and Mar
tin J. Gavin, oil-shale technologist
of the bureau of mines, has been
working on a survey since 1920.
Oil-shale formations in the south
west center of Clark County, lying
in the beds Of old stone quarries, the
report shows, have the richest oil de-
posts Of any in the State. The Grant
County shale will yield 1871 gallons
for each ton of shale.
Another shale formation in Jackson
County, six miles southeast of Sey-
mour, where the State road crosses
the Muscatatuck River. yields 15.z
gallons a ton. The shale here exists
in a three-foot vein. The third best
oil-shale formation has yield slight
! ly less. Valuable oil-shale formations
are shown to exist in Floyd, Jennings
Scott and Clark Counties. The aver
age yield for all samples collected in
the State is 1913 gallons a ton.
In the survey the following points
were sought: Distribution of the New
Albany shale. amount Of shale avail
able, homogeneity and thickness OF
the formation. amount ana quality OF
oil obtained from the shale, extracta
bility of the shale and its amenity to
breaking and other economic factors
bearing on the utilization of the de
| posits.

MANSION CIT |
FAVORED
Senate Committee Supports
Acceptance, But Worries
Over Maintenance.

Action upon Mrs. John G. Hen
derson's offer Of q Vice Presidential
mansion at Sixteenth and Fuller.
streets was postponed today by the
Senate Public Buildings and Grounds
Committee.
Acceptance of the gift was strong
1y supported by the committee, but
there was a division of sentiment over
the question Of what recommends
ton to make to the Senate as regards
the maintenance of the mansion.
Certain Senators seem to think that
the upkeep would be as heavy as
that of the White House, if not more
so, and they expressed doubt as to
whether Congress would accept the
gift under such conditions.
Senator Fernald, chairman Of the
committee, probably will summon an
other meeting in an effort to obtain
a unanimous report. It is expected
that all differences in the committee
will be smoothed over and that the
way will be paved for the acceptance
OF the gift by Congress.
