distress selling. Fall of prices in- creased the aggregate debt in pro- portion to the fall.
 Distress selling led to lower prices, which worked untold harm. Falling prices cause unemeploy- ment and wage cutting. This neces- sitated liquidation-but the liquid ation failed to liquidate.
 The great effect of the present economic situation will be trans fer of wealth from one class to another, Professor Fisher be- lieves. There has been but little loss of wealth; wealth has merely been redistrubuted. The bondhold- CTS and others with fixed icomes are the only ones not suffering from the situation, he declared. Ultimately the bondholders will lead us out of the depression. said the economist.
 Professor Fishers view on wage cutting will be presented in tomor- rows article.)

Four persons were injured, one seriously. in series of automobile accidents in Waterbury, and vicin- ity yesterday. The police are in- vestigating the details of the mis- haps that jeopardized the lives of several persons.
 Vito Nazzoliello, 2s, of 54 Full Ter street was operating d motor cycle on the Watertown-Bethle- hem highway yesterday afternoon when he was run down by an al- legged hit-and-run autoist. While Nazzoliello was lying unconscious last evening in St Mary's hospital the police were questioning Nich- plas Daddona of 157 Pearl street, who was accused of being the op- orator of the car which collided with Nazzoliello's machine. He denied the accusation, but the dam- aged condition of his car indicated that he had been in a collision of of some sort. A complaint has been filed with the officials of Woodbury with the result that Daddona may be obliged to estab- fish an alibi to escape serious charges.
 To-day at St Mary's hospital it wax stated that the condition of Nazzoliello was slightly improved, but still critical. He was regard ed as too sick this morning to move into the x-ray room. It was feared that his skull was fractured as the result of being hurled from his cycle and thrown a distance of over 50 feet. The injured man is employed by Nick Cena, a Water bury contractor. He was found unconscious on the highway by Charles Kane of 157 Charles street, a fellow employe. After receiv- ing first aid treatment by Dr Harold J. Cleary. Nazzoliello was rushed to the hospital. Coroner John T. Monzani was promptly no- tified and with the aid of the po- lice he questioned a number of witnesses, but ordered no arrests.
 Relatives of the injured man took it upon themselves to con duet an investigation and it was through them that the name of Daddona was obtained as the aI

The bi- partisan support accorded his debt holiday is held to be proof con- elusive of that; and his real friends believe that he ought to know better than to be picking quarrels with the Washington newspaper men. no matter how much they might aggravate him."

certain as the sunrise. He has
bought oil during the "sQueexe

there is a NEED for the oil, a.

es still burn more and more gaso-
line, and automobile factories are
starting back toward capacity
production Of new gasoline-eon-
Stunning automobiles, Is ample
evidence to Mr.. Average Inves-
tor that more oil is needed and
in turn the price Of oil is going
UP.
OF course, it is difficult for the
average investor 20 finance the
manipulation Of q great oil field,
as here suggested. At the same
time, there is no question but that
it would WORK in any field in
the country. The lower the
price Of gasoline, the lower the
price Of crude; the lower the
price Of crude, the less the drill
ing; the less the drilling, the low
er the cash value Of leases and
royalties; the way to make the
greatest fortune is simply to pur-
chase at the LOWEST point, and
wait for the recovery. If there
is anyone who believes for one
minute that the price Of Salt
Greek crude-whieh has brought
SO per barrel-will stay at so
cents q barrel, he cannot see the
possibility Of a profit. From the
viewpoint Of the investor, the
best thing that could happen
would be to reduce the price Of
Salt Creek crude TO 10 cents
barrel Then the school janitor
who failed to make a fortune
would be positively branded as
one lacking the ability to ever
rise above a janitOr's salary

A Simple Plan TO Make A Fortune

Of the existence Of a fair pool Of
oil under the remaining five.
sixths Of available locations. That
number Of wells proves the ratio
Of producers to dry holes. Il
shows the average thickness Of
the pay" sands. It shows under
what conditions gushers are
found. 1t shows the probable re.
eovery per acre. There is little
guesswork.
The next step. after having the
information which shows the val
ne Of the average acre Of oil
land, is TO boost the price of oil
so high that Independent REIN
ers cannot afford to buy it. When
the refiners have starved to
death, depriving Independent pro
ducers of a market for their
crude, reduce the price Of crude
and prO-rate the field to a place
where the Independents cannot
live. Independent producers
can't EAT the oil and without a
market they win starye. If pos
sible, shut the field down entire
" for six months-for a double
reason which win be explained
later
Mr. Average Investor, who has
manipulated this situation, has
not been aiming at the poor In
dependent producers. He has
been aiming at the LiANDOWN.
Frs. The farmer whose farm
has been criss- crossed with tOQole
lines and pipelines and inundated
by lakes Of sulphur water is rath-
er dependent, Is a rule, upon his
monthly royalty checks. Most Of
these landowners are free spend
ers when they have q fat check
coming in every month. We are
al inclined to be that way
Taking advantage Of this fact.
Mr.. Average Investor knows that
when he shuts down the wells
be is putting on the royalty own
ers big squeeze, which they
can't survive. When there Is
40 longer a market for oil, the
owner Of the royalty is forced to
10 something to get bread and
butter He. cant raise a crop
n the winter time. So what Is
le to dol The best idea is for
nm to sell some royalty. When
he comes 70 sell he has to TAKE
WHAT HE CAN GET
Mr.. Average Investor steps IN

The man Of mature years who
has a dependable salary or wage
coming in today can achieve a
personal fortune.
The man Of mature years who
has a dependable salary or wage
coming in but who does not lay
the foundation for a fortune dur
ing the next year or so win like
" die poor.
The employed wage Garner, the
employed salaried man or woman
and those who are in possession
Of some money garnered during
the good times are today on
top Of the world. "
The lowly postal employee, the
fireman, the policemen who
could barely make ends meet in
1928 is having his turn" today.
During prosperous times these sal
aried people had little chance to
get ahead because high commod-
ity prices took all they earned.
Now that we have ''hard times
they have a chance to save mon
ey and to put it to work at a
time when one dollar is as big
as four dollars in times Of pros
perity.
The man who is taking advan-
tage Of low commodity prices will
make a fortune now or never
There are lot of people in this
class. When we stop to consider
that one family out Of every II
has at it's head a governmental
employee who is enjoying a sal
airy that is the highest in the his
tory Of the United States, we
know that there SHOULD be a
new crop Of financially independ-
ent-if not wealthy people,
when this depression ends.
The method whereby a man at
tain wealth is simple. Those who
fail to get wealth at this time
are those who do not observe how
the wealthy have achived their
wealth. Everyone knows that no
industry has made more rich men
from the ranks Of relatively poor
than has the oil industry. Some
one has said that the oil industry
has foisted onto society several
hundred millinonaires who do not
know which table fork to use
The men who have achiyed indi-
vidnal fortunes are not the ones
who took their savings from sal
aries and played the stock mar
ket or bought gilt-edge bonds.
They are the men who took ad-
vantage Of existing conditions.
We see them at work every day.
It is easy to evolve a plan to
get rich. Here is one:
Locate q producing oil field
hat has PROVEN it's worth. Kew
n-Sunburst would be good one
o start on. About One-sixth of
he locations within the proven
irea have been drilled. OneSixth
# the locations have produced
round $4,000 10000 worth Of
il in a period Of nine years.
bat gives pretty good evidence
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1931-03-28

Had we known in 102O-ths
year before the discovery vel
what we know about Kelvin
Sunburst today, would we not
have made fortnnesi
Yet today we can buy royalties
in kevin-Sunbnrst for about the
same price as they could have
been bought for back in 1920.
The reason is not that any royal
ty investor such as Mr.. Average
Investor has brought about this
condition. TEE CONDITION
EXISTS TODAY WITHOUT
HIS EFFORT.
We can buy royalties on
PROVEN ground in Kevin-Sun-
burst, many with producing but
idle wells for less than the cost
Of wildcat royalties. Here we can
buy royalties where we know the
law Of probabilities: the prob
able number Of producers against
dry holes, the probability Of gush-
ers such as the Byrne, Baker
HOwling and others, the probable
recovery per acre and the prob.
able profit from each 81 invest
ed. The question is whether the
BOTTOM has been reached and
whether more oil win EVER be
needed to run internal combus-
ton engines.
We saw a time when William
Howling's royalties were worth
$50. We lived q few years and
saw one per cent on one acre Of
the Howling farm sell for &l2O;
on a basis Of SIS, 10000 return
from an investment Of $50, with
half Of the farm left We never
expected to see q condition Of
that kind again.
Anyone who has ever watched
rats cleaning up mice in a gran
airy and who has never been a
mouse has been enjoying watch
ing the rats eat mp the mice In
the oil industry. The refiners,
first, then the producers and now

Grounded During Heavy Fog;
Unable to Move Until High
Tide Comes

Southampton. Eng. April s.-NF}-
The giant Cunard liner Berengaria
was anchored in q dense fog off Nab
Tower Wednesday after spending
several hours aground nearby during
the night.
Blinded by q heavy fog the liner
went aground early In the evening as
it proceeded from Cherbourg. There
was jar and q heavy crunching
sound, and then the vessel shivered
as its engines were thrown In reverse
to try to refloat 1t.
These efforts were continued for
about two hours, but In vain. Four
tugs went out from Southampton but
their efforts were futile too until re-
inforced by two others and q rising
tide at 3 a. m. Wednesday when the
ship, once the German! Imperator,
was refloated. The fog was still too
oense to proceed and the ship an
chored nearby.
All but IS Of the liners passengers
were removed by tender shortly after
the accident and taken to Southamp-
ton. Others remained aboard, elect
ing to spend the night on the ship
rather than risk the trip, by small
boat into port. -~-
1t was believed the Berengaria,
which left New York March 81 and
was en- route, here from Cherbourg in
completion Of Its voyage, would have
to 60 into drydock' for repairs, al

BABY FACE 1'OGE7
new MURDER TRIAL
',Wss Willy Doody Had Boon
Sentenced 70 Death for sIay-
Ing Policeman

Springfield, ILL.,, April 3.-(#) De-
nying q rehearing, the supreme court
Wednesday ordered a new trial for
"Wee Willie" Doody, called "Baby
Face" for the murder the night Of
May as, 1929. Of Chief Of Police
Charles Levy, Of Berwyn. The case
goes back to the criminal court in
Chicago which originally sentenced
Doody to death.
This was the case in which the su-
preme court earlier this year refused
. rehearing because OF the attitude IN
court of Doody's lawyer. William 8,
Stewart, Chicago. Instead Of granting
the new trial at that time the court
gave Stewart q lecture on supreme
court manners.
Shortly afterward the court recon-
sidered Doody's case on its own mo-
ton and "Wednesday directed that his
case be retired as previously decided.
Chief Of Police Levy was shot and
fatally wounded when he and other
police approached q car which they
believed had been stolen. The case
goes back for retrial because of the
representation that improper evidence
was admitted against Doody.
