FIND DIAMOND DRILL
To HAVE ADVANTAGES
FOR OIL PROSPECTOR
SOME WELLS SUNK AT HALF
THE COST or ORDINARY

CHICAGO, Jan. s. (P)-The dia-
mond drill has proved it's worth and ef-
ficiency in prospecting for coal and
ores, and may fill the need for better
prospecting methods in the oil in
dustry, it is indicated by an investi-
cation Of the subject by the Bureau
of Mines. In northern Oklahoma the
diamond drill is being used for de-
termining geologic structures as well
as for testing for oil production
Several oil wells in Mexico and test
wells in a number Of States have
been sunk with the diamond drill.
NEW OIL FIELDS NEEDED.
Development Of supplies of crude
oil necessitate the finding Of new
oil fields. New fields, however, are
interestingly ullllcult 70 Ilnd, pc
cause many promising geologic
structures, particularly those that
can be determined by studies of sur
face indications, have already been
developed or tested. Oil operators
naturally wish to avoid drilling ex-
pensive test wells in uncertain areas
with the aid of only a little geologic
evidence, and are eager to use meth
DDS that will furnish at reasonable
cost more complete geologic informa-
ton on the possibility Of finding oil.

EVOLUTION THEORY OF
EsNM0s IS THEIR OWN

WASHINGTON, Jan. Z. P-Dr.
Knud Rasmussen, the Danish explor-
err, who recently completed a 10000
mile dog-sled trip thru the Arctic
zone, believes the Eskimo has
evolved something akin to a Darwin
ian philosophy Of his own, based
on the theory that there was time
when animals were converted into
men and when there was only one
tribe Of men but numerous animals.
Eskimo folklore, Dr.. Rasmussen
said recently before the National
Geographic Society, also assumes
that there was a period in the earl
lest dawn of Arctic evolution when
all human beings were males. To the
Eskimo mind it suggested a peaceful
but monotonous and humdrum exist
ence and it terminated when Mrs
Eskimo was evolved from the rib Of
one Of the early lords Of the Arctic
