UNION OIL co.
 TO BUILD HERE
New Plant on Channel by June Says E. M. Basse
 on Return from South

That the Union Oil Company will locate on the Juneau side of Gastineau Channel. and have a plant ready for business about June l, was the announcement made today by E. NJ. Base, who returned last night on the Ala meda from two and one half weeks trip to Seattle.
 Mir. Base has been working with the Union Oil Company for several months and said some time ago the company hoped to place distribution plant here this year Location of such a plant within the limits of Juneau was discouraged by the City Council in view of an existing ordinance, when the matter was brought before that body during the winter months.
 Present plans are that the com pany will build on the former holdings of the American Pack ing Company. south of the Stand ard Oil Company dock on the Thane Road. This property has recently been taken over by the Union Oil executives. MT. Basse asserted
 Just how soon the building of pier and erection of necessary tanks and buildings will begin, MT. Basse did not definitely say. He indicated. however, work would begin as soon as possible, because Union Oil officials plan to have things in readiness to care for the large number of boats operating in and out of Juneau during the summer months.
 Further announcements con- corning the location of the com pany here will be made later MT. Basse said today. but declared he did not feel entirely at lib- erty to disclose any details of the present plans.

SAY GALES WILL
 QUIT IN DECEMBER
Efforts Will Be Made to Change
 FIN

Mexico City, July 2s R-1ntimate friends of President Gales say that he told them he will retire from the presidency on December l.
 It appeared probable today that efforts would be made in some quar- ter to induce him to change his mind. Should these fail. it was thought that Governor .aron Saenz, of the state of Nuevo Leon, would succeed to the presidency to which the late General Alvaro Obregon was elected.
 There had been some doubt as to whether the proposal that Gales be named provisional president for a two year term until an election could be held would be legal. The deci- sion of President Gales not to suc- ceed himself served further to clear the political atmosphere.
 The question of presidential suc- cession will not be taken up until September when congress convenes in its regular session. The special session opening today will not deal with the question of succession.
 Amendments Cone tp
 The so-called Obregol. amend ments to the constitution will be the principal business of the special ses- sion. These amendments are expect ed to reduce further the influence of the labor party. to which the Obre- gonistas are opposed.
 One of these amendments gives Mexico City and other towns in the federal district government by

BAHAMA WATERS
 BEING STUDIED
Limestone Formation Process
 interests Scientists

Princeton N J., July g P-A small party Of scientists is planning a trip to a natural marine labora- tory where limestone is still being made.
 The group comprises Professor Richard Montgomery Field of the Princeton University geology de- partnent, Dr. William Beehe of the New York Geological society and pY Charles Fish, director of the Buffalo Society of Natural scl- ences. They are going to the ocean area off the western coast of the island of Andros. in the Bahamas, q spot that has never been eA- plored scientifically
 The expedition, which may not start until next Christmas vacation, is the result Of preliminary sur vey of the locality made last win ter by Professor Field and Carl Breuer of Locust Valley. N. 1., a Princeton student. On this trip Professor Field suhstantiated his belief that conditions similar to those of paleozoic times. millions of years ago. were being repro duced off Aniros and that lime stone was in the process of forma = ton there from a sedimentatton of calcium carbonate.
 Rv studying the geological con- ditions in the great marine flat 300 miles long and 60 miles wide, that lies near the island, the scientists hope to ascertain the origin of pure limestone stratas such as are found in the Rockies, the Alps. the Alp palachians and other mountain ranges.
 While examining the structure of the Appalachians l2 years ago Pro- lessor Field began his first inves- tKations into the formation Of pure unfossiliferous limestone found IT that chain. He concluded that il might be possible 10 find conditions suitable for the formation of the limestone in the lagoons formed h, coral reefs, but later learned il would he necessary 10 study sed1- mentation over 8 greater area than the lagoons would afford.
 Tn the marine plain of the coas of Andros he has found just the To. cali'v he has been seeking. He h." lieves the conditions there are mol duplicated elseWh here in the world
 Tn party's base of operations will be sailboa' and diving hel. mets will be among the principa items of the equipment, At nc point in the flat IS the water mort that 25 feet deep.
