O'NEIL GETS ANOTHER 2OO-BARREL WI
Santa Rita -StahI IS Rated As
Second Best Well In Cut Bank

1t will probably result in offset
wells on Texas company's Hessler
and Montana Power company's
Neil on the north and Schuren
farm on the west.
Based on Mid-continent meth
DDS of figuring, the Stahl might be
rated at 400 barrels initial. 1t is re-
garded in Cut Bank as a 200-barrel
we'll which is a tremendously prof
table oil well, with crude at $1.45
per barrel. It will pay out it's own
cost in eight or nine months. Mean
time the Stalls, farmers, face the
problem of spending $36 per day
from their one-eighth royalty.
The Stahl was the second
achievement of the week for Santa
Rita. After having cased off flows
of gas variously estimated from 10
to Is million cubic feet per day,
Santa Rita made flowing oil well
out of its Savage No. l well in
NE14 SW14 9-33-5W, two miles
northeast of the Stahl The Savage
swabbed 80 barrels during the
first "a hours and after tubing was
run it started flowing 80 barrels
per day. Operators believe that the
biggest oil we'll in the field will be
completed somewhere in the neigh
borhood of this Savage we'll. No
other well in the field has shown so
much gas In the Cut Bank sand.

What is believed to be the
second largest oil well in Cut
Bank oil field was brought in
this week by Santa Rita Oil COM
pany east of Cut Bank on it's
Stahl No. l location, NW14 SEA
2O-33-5W.
Although it did not flow and
is not sensational in initial pro-
duction, it is rated as a 200-barrel
well and it's performance is such
that it will settle to production
comparable with the Santa Rita
Milestone No. A which is rated
as the largest well in the field,
completed by L. B. O'Neil, head
of the Santa Rita, more than one
year ago.
The Stahl had 24OO feet of
oil in the hole when swabbing
started. 1t made 164 barrels in the
first IL hours. Then it swabbed 233
barrels in is hours and in the last
IL hours thereafter it made six
feet, eight inches in a 250-barrel
tank, or about 200 barrels.
The Stahl is two and half
miles southeast of the town of Cut
Bank and half mile south of the
Montana Power-Neil producer, the
first well in this area. Half a mile
east of it is the recently COM
pleted Montana Miller pro-
Queer. 1t opens up no new territory.

Two hundred feet below the oil
sand is a second sand, correspond
ing to the Kevin-Sunburst produc-
ing horizon, called the Ellis sand.
The Ellis sand on Flat Coulee is
known to carry gas flow measur-
ing 15,OOO,O0 cubic feet per day
with a rock pressure of least
1900 pounds to the square inchl
Hamilton proposes to drill Ellis
sand wells on the flanks of the
structure and turn the gas into the
basal Kootenai sand with the re-
suit that the Baslz0o sand wells,
higher on the structure. win be-
come flowing oil wells. The gas
will be saved and there VIII be no
wastage. He hopes thereby TO make
flowing wells out OF all hds pro-
ducers which might otherwise be
bumpers.
Hamilton left Thursday for the
field where he will complete clean
ing his well preparatory to putting
It on production. The 6-inch casing
has been re-run and is now set on
top of the sand. He expects to-
clean out for several days. to get
rid OF all cavings, before attempt
ing to put it on production.
While tubing was being run re-
Gently, the tubing was dropped,
making it necessary to pull the g.
inch string to recover the tubing
catcher. The well had been treated
with acid to open up a saturated
/ 6-foot lime member at the base Of
the sand. AS a result Of the acid,
the oil rose from 500 feet to 1850
feet 1t has not been tested since
the acid was run.
1t is possible that this well win
be drilled on down to the Ellis,
although this involves the hazard
Of the loss Of this hole, as the dis
eovery well was lost. owing to the
terrific gas pressure. Jack Curtis,

COAL PLANT MAY
 SAVE MACDONALD
Prime Ministers Seat May Be Retained By Ramsay
 in General Election

London (UP) Lord London derry, by clever political-business move and the investment of $1,- 250,000, virtually has saved the prime minister's seat for Ramsay Macdonald at Seaham Harbour In the next general election, accord ing to the interpretation gleefully placed by the political experts up- on an innocent little announcement
 in the financial press.
 That announcement - which all but escaped notice-states that the Londonderry Col ieries, Ltd -
 which controls the extensive col lieries of the Marquess of London
 derry-has just broken ground for the speedy erection at Seaham
 Harbour of modern, up-to-date plant for the extraction of oil from
 coal. The plant it is said. will be
 in operation in March--a date sug- gesting that construction is going
 forward at unprecedented speed and will furnish employment for from 1900 to 1,500 men.
 As Seaham Harbour is a some- what depressed coal mining town in the depressed County of Dur ham,, it Is agreed that the new plant will be q godsend to the un- employed there and should do much to allay local discontent and offset the incessant activity of the ''leftwingers." The latter have been so active that many political Judg- es have felt that Ramsay Mac Donald ought not to risk defeat by again standing for Parliament from Seaham Harbour, but should seek 'safe seat" elsewhere-per- haps Southampton.
 But by selecting the Prime Min- ister's constituency for the site of his new plant, 1t is felt that Lord Londnodcrry--who Is one of the Prime Ministers staunchest back

 Washington, Feb. 22.---A large part iof the Administration reiieE proxram for next winter will con sist of . glorified CWA. 1t wont be- called that. of cOurse,s because CWASiis supposed to have assbad name. And there will be distinct notifications of tfie huge civilg. works program which hastily put 4s0D0, 900 persons to work in the winter of s19sS-Ss. ! Just the same. enough of the administrations concea led and only halfrformulated plan has leaked out to show that certain Fundamentals of theory and prac- tice trace directly back to that great emergency effort.
 Roosevelt favors the "force ac- over the contract system in spending most of the $i, poo. 100000 Congress will give him for work relief in the fiscal year 19s5-36.
 "Force account" means you go out with a lot of money and hire lot of people to do 3 lot of work. That was what CWA did, as against the slower, much more economical PWA scheme under which all projects were thrown open to competitive bidding and contractors were bonded to do the job at stipulated cost.

Waste, Graft Certain

Force account" Is the fast way to spend money. The money is handed to a mayor, say, for his l works or relief administration,
 which proceeds to expand it's work force by drawing from relief rolls
 and starting on certain projects.
 In such program, talk of self
 liquidating projects such as has
 come from the White House-is ab-
 surd. Contractors, instead of draw
 ing from relief rolls, would recruit
 the most skilled crews available.
 Politics, graft, and waste obvi- l ously are unavoidable under force account. That's why administra-
 ton leaders are divided between | those who want to pump money
 out rapidly and those who want to be slow and careful about it. Roosevelt sides with the first | group, recalling the decided fillip
 which CWA gave to business and
 insisted that all employables be
 put to work.
 Chief departures from former
 CWA methods will be the $50 a month subsistence wage and l greater emphasis on project l swhich will stimulate industry by l greater requirement for materials.
 Johnson Won't Be Back
 After General Johnson went l away from MIRA, there were l frequent reports that sooner or later he would be brought back into the administration. A rumor | that he would be utilized in Q big 1 new federal construction program
 died hard.
 But the generals magazine arti- cles have ended those rumors and
 have left no doubt that he will con-
 tinue to stand on the outside lock-
 ing in.
 I Most memories of the way i'm l portant things happened while | Johnson was head of MIRA are 50
 divergent from the generals ac-
 count that in private he is often
 accused of Q great mass of half truths and misrepresentations. His slurs at Donald Richberg.
 Secretary Perkins, and other ad- | ministration figures as we'll as
 policies-make it obvious that his
 presence at the New Deal council ] table again would be rather em-
 barrassing.
 Roosevelt Grin Fades
 Indications are that Roose-
 velt's temper has become bit
 shorter and that he Is not quite his
 old gay and grinning self. l One of his most important l boards called on him in a body
 recently, determined to make a
 mild protest against public ov-
 erruling of one of it's important
 decisions. The board never did get it's protest lodged satisfactorily. "The president Is a very difficult man to talk with," one of its mem bers explained later in private. You start to say something to him and he interrupts you and talks steadily for five minutes. You can't interrupt the president. of course, and when he bows you out. you're through"
 Undersecretary Rex Tugwell holds the recent record for length of q conversation. After he barged into the White House to protest the AAA purge" in his absence. he and Roosevelt talked for two hours and Tugwell was persuaded not to quit.
