LARGEST FLOW

A flow Of gas which burns

was developed this wsek n
the Radigan test on Psndrcy

This is the largest showing
Of gas developed by any q
the six wells which have ah0wn
oil ovear an area Of 10000
acres where the presence Of =
commercial oil pool Is sus
pected
The gas is largely from 3 so
foot sand IN the top OF the Koo-
tenai formation. With a 10~inch
hole, the flow Is very apparent
and Il whistles around the bailer
when it is withdrawn from the
top OF the casing. B. z. Adams.
the contractor, threw a match ia
the general direction OF the
pipe and Il blaxed half way up
the derrick and was Hnunfed out
after quite q little difficulty.
None had realized the volume un-
til that time.
The gas may be partly to blame
for serious caving which start
ed in the Kootenai. making e
necessary to run an 8h inch
string OF pipe. The well was shut
down Tuesday after the tools
stuck four or tive times ana the
drfllers realized that it was
folly to try to fight the cave.
The well was shut down Friday,
for pipe.
Location Of this well Is half 3
mile south Of the Continental
we'll, an 8-barreA
producer which Is regarded as the
discovery well of the Pendroy |
pool.
The Radigan well now bottoms

PROPOSED TAX
 WIDENS FIGHT


 New York, Nov 17-(U.P. "A proposed city income tax widened the controversy to-day over a rev. enue program to yield $45,O00, 900 for relief.
 Alderman Morton Baum. repub- lican, Manhattan, drafted a city income tax law but did not decide what exemptions or tax to propose. He indicated that measure would not impose a heavy burden and would not yield more than $6,000.- 900.
 The Merchants Association im- mediately condemned the income tax program as it has all others so far considered. The organization renewed its demands for adoption of a 2-cent tax on all transit fares.

of civic importance, will be paid Monday to the late Attorney Jos eph A. Bergin. His sudden death late Thursday evening at his resi- dencc, 22 Hillside avenue was trag. ic news to his hundreds of friends. Many impressive euiogies of the deceased lawyer were heard throughout the city last night and today.
 All members of the Waterbury bar will meet at the county court house Monday morning at o'clock in response to call issued by Judge John F. McDonough. presi- dent of the local association From there they will go in a body to the Bergin home. from where the fun eral will take place at S:30 o'clock, with services at 9 o'clock at st Margaret's church. Burial will be in old St Joseph's cemetery in the family plot. After [ o'clock tonight friends may cali at the home.

The provisions of section 1859 Of the general statutes provide that mo veteran holding a position by appointment or employed as a jam itor, engineer, fireman, watchman or elevator man in any public building owned by the state or by any county shall be removed from such position or employment ex- cept for incompetency or miscon- duct or have his compensation re- duced except for cause and after a hearing preceded by due notice
 The question involved is whether the definition of veterans under the statutes includes veterans appoint ed to other positions than those of janitors. firemen, watchmen or elevator operators.
 For example the issue has been raised of whether it might be construed to mean veterans em- ployed in the state service ap- pointed by heads of departments, etc. st
 It is claimed by some of the vet erans that the phrasing of the statute eliminates them from the list of those who may be removed from office by the incoming demo- :ratic organization. Many vet erans throughout the state are holding appointive positions.

 New York, November 17 -(UP) I- American Telephone and Tele- graph Company capital stock dropped 4% points to 100B, a new 1884 low, on the stock exchange today, met support and rallied from that level, while the main list moved in a narrow range and clos ed irregular.
 There was all sorts of selling re- ported in telephone. The stock is widely held by small holders, and many of them, frightened by pub licity attendant on the federal communications commission inves- tigation of the company, unloaded. Shorts sold the issue, and some in- vcstors sold short against the box. However, heavy orders to buy neared the 100-mark and it came back from that level.
 Experts were of the opinion that the halt in telephones decline did not indicate the streets worry over the company was over, although some expressed belief the stock had been over-sold. While Tele- phone was declining, some of the gas and electric utilities met fur ther unloading, although prices held in narrow range. Since the group closed around it's lows yes terday 1t required only a small set back to bring many issues into new now territory.
 During the course of the short session, new lows were made in Consolidated Gas. North American and United Gas Improvement. The losses were only fractional. how ever. and the prices rallied from the lows before the close.

Financial Outlook
 For United States
General Business Situation Remains About the Same;
 Encouragement Seen in Financial Developments

New York, Nov 17.-The gem eral business situation is charac- terized, as it has been for some time, by marked contrast be- tween the level of production and trade in the industries producing consumers goods and the volume or output in the industries produce ing capital equipment, states the current issue of the weekly sur vey, published by the Guaranty Trust company of New York,
 The developments of the last lew weeks have brought no definite improvement in this respect, the survey continues. Aside from the recovery in certain directions fol- lowing the termination of the tex tile strike and the seasonal expan- sion that normally occurs in some lines at this time of year, ac- tivity in the basic industries has shown no significant change. The situation illustrates the extraordi- nary susceptibility of business sem timcnt to adverse influences after a prolonged period of depression, even when Fundamental economic conditions have shown some signs of inciplent revival.
 A certain amount fencourage- ment has been derived from the improvement in the near-term labor outlook following the presi- dents appeal for an industrial

STATE REVENUES
 MAY BE CHANGED
Budget Would Be Balanced By Tax ConlfnissiOn's
 Recommendations

Municipalities would receive about
 $6.00O,000 of additional state rev. enues and the states budget, in-
 c.uding the increases in state ex- penditures proposed by the conn
 mission, would be balanced by the adoption of the recommendations contained in the report of the
 Special Tax Commission, Governor Wilbur, L. Cross announced in a statement made public today.
 Recommendations submitted by the Commission are expected to
 cause many changes in state reven. ues from present taxes. Chagnes proposed in the taxation of insur. ance companies, miscellaneous cor
 porations, and gasoline, according to the estimates, would result in increases in revenues, while those proposed in the state and military
 taxes, In motor vehicle registration fees, in property taxes on intan- gibles, and in taxes on banking in- stitutions would result in decreas- es. The net result of these chang es in present taxes, however, would be to maintain the revenues of the state at approximately their pres ent level.
 The additional state revenues re- quired to finance the proposed in- creased expenditures for unemploy-
 ment relief, for the support of
 children committed to county care. for the synchronization of munich pal fiscal years and tax due dates, and to eliminate the state budget deficit would be derived from the proposed emergency retail sales
 and cigarette taxes and from the proposed tax on interest and divi- dends. It is estimated that the re- tail sales tax would yield $6,000,-
 900, the cigarette tax $1,200. 900,
 and the interest and dividends tax. $4,000,00
 The Governors statement con- tained the Commisison's summary
 of the chapter of it's report deal
 ing with U e effects of its recom-
 endations on the financial opera tions of the state, the counties. and
 the municipalities. The full text of
 this summary follows: As means of showing the fiscal effects of the various recommenda-
 tions of the Commission. we have
 estimated the changes which would
 have resulted from them in the re- ceipts and expenditures of each of
 the three levels of government
 the state. the counties, and the mu-
 nicipalties. In some cases. where
 the fiscal effects of proposed
 changes have been highly prob-
 lematical and of minor fiscal i'm.
 portance, TO estimate has been at-
 tempted. Such cases include the
 administrative changes proposed in
 local finance and taxation, the ad-
 ministrative costs of. new taxes and other proposed activities of the tax commissioner office, the establish
 ment of a state jail farm. etc.
