Washington will be given a thor
ough cleaning during the next two
weeks. under plans announced yes
terday by the Commissioners and the
City Refuse Division.
Reacting to numerous complaints of
dirty conditions in streets and alleys,
officials promised concerted drive
for a cleaner city and moved on. sew
eral fronts to carry out this purpose.
The Commissioners yesterday also
formally proclaimed the week Of April
IS as Cleanup week, and called on all
residents to rid yards and vacant lots
Of trash and to repair and modern
ize their homes.
Spring is generally accepted" said
the proclamation, "as the time to
clean up and renovize homes and pri-
vate buildings and grounds" The
Commissioners also pointed out that
general cleanup would do much to
stimulate employment.
AS q result of the drive, the Capital
should look its best for Easter visi-
tors and several months accumulation
Of dirt will be removed
Steps in Campaign.
Main steps in the campaign are:
l. Designation by the Commission
ers of IS days, beginning tomorrow, as
a period for special effort to eradicate
dirty, insanitary and unsightly condi-
tons on public and private property.
2. Concentrated street cleaning
throughout this week by all men and
equipment Of the City Refuse Division.
8. Strict enforcement by police of
ordinances governing the discard of
refuse and littering of streets.
During the first week of the espe-
cially designated cleanup period the
responsibility will be chiefly with the
Street Cleaning Department. During
the period April 1918 it will be with
householders or other property owners.
The Commissioners said all refuse
collection services would be available
during the second cleanup week for
special duty In picking up trash and
other refuse matter accumulated in

holders can call on the City Refuse Di-
vision to make such collections and
are urged to cooperate by assembling
all matter for proper discard.
Throughout this week 18 of the
refuse divisions big truck fiushers,
/ 500 gallons Of water abroad each, will
patrol the city, washing down almost
every mile of paved street, from curb
to curb. Fourteen will operate at
night and four in the daylight hours
59s Miles Of Streets.
Ofhcials expect to cover most Of
Washington's 598 miles Of paved
streets. Some streets cannot be flushed,
because they are not built to with
stand the 40 pounds Of pressure from
the fiushers' nozzles. These will not
escape cleaning by other means, how
ever.
Downtown Washington streets, In an
area bounded roughly by Florida ave-
nue., Constitution avenue, Fifth street
and Seventeenth street will be flushed
nightly.
The one-day furlough, made neces-
sary by limited funds, will be elm
mated this week, officials said, and all
2sl laborers Of the refuse division
will work daily, from Monday through
Saturday. Trash, ash and garbage
collectors will do street-cleaning work
in addition to their regular tasks.

rected to clean thoroughly eich OF the

ton as Hotels.

Many apartments, rooming houses
and hotels in Washington are to be
inspected by District agents in a con-
ings comply with regulations Of the
fire escape and building code.
During the current fiscal year. more
than 800 occupancy permits have been
refused by the building inspectors
Office pending alterations to correct
unsafe conditions which violate the
code, according to T. F. Roche, chief
building inspector. At present. about
rs still are on the blacklist" because
the alterations have not been made as
ordered and in some cases court ac-
ton has been necessary.
"Y" Building in Question.
One of the questions to be decided
In the current inspection is whether
the Army and Navy Club, the Y. M. c.
A. Building at Eighteenth and G
streets, and several others of SINH
lar nature, should be claSsed with
hotels. Hotels, in the fire escape and
elevator code, are defined as places
where meals are served and 10 or more
transients live.
Another place to be inspected Is
the Pythian Temple, 1912 Ninth street.
to determine If it should be construed
as a place Of assemblage" because Of
the lodge room on the second floor.
An occupancy permit has been granted
heretofore for use Of the hall or ball
room on the first floor.
Roche revealed yesterday that court
action had been necessary to close
a D street "hotel" where beds were
available at prices from 10 to rs cents
q night, because they we're lacking
in proper fire escapes, alarm gongs
and fire extinguishers. With a ca
pacity Of 200 persons, the place, where
alterations are nearing completion
after a court threat of a fine of $50
a day for continued operation, was an
invitation to tragedy" Roche de-
clared.
Small Staff Handicap.
Handicapped by a staff of only four
men. the Building Inspection Depart
ment, which recently declared addi.
tional fire escapes and equipment were
needed at several Catholic and George
Washington University buildings, Is
attempting to keep track of more than
5000 apartment, rooming houses and
tenements and hotels In the District.
Corporations is being received from
the Police Department, which re-
ports to the building inspectors office
wherever a place is being operated
without an occupancy permit. Due
to the conversion of residences into
rooming houses and apartments, how
ever, the number to be inspected by the
office is constantly increasing, Roche
explained.

Chairman Norton and Rep.
resentative Kennedy to
Map Procedure.
BOTH BELIEVE DELAY
MAY BE PREVENTED
Outright Repeal Of Red Rider
May Be Changed to Earlier
Measure Proposed.
BY JAMES E. CHM.

Another effort will be made tomor-
row by the House District Committee
to determine the fate of the Sisson bill
to repeal the red rider" to the 1896
District appropriation act.
The first step will be conference
between Chairman Norton and Repre-
sentative Kennedy, Democrat, of
MARYLAND, who heads the Subcommit-
tee on Education, which has the meas.
ure under consideration. 1t is planned
to work out at this meeting a course
of procedure to be followed in moving
the bill to the House calendar.
An attempt by Kennedy last week
to get subcommittee action on the
measure was thwarted by Representa-
tive Jenckes, Democrat, Of Indiana,
who left Washington to keep several
political engagements in her district,
taking the official transcript of the
recent hearings on the bill. Despite
Kennedys telegraphic plea to her to
return the transcript he has not re-
ceived 1t.
Would Avoid Delay.
Both Kennedy and Mrs. Norton be-
Ieve way can be found to prevent
further delay In subcommittee action.
Mrs. Norton would like the subcom-
mittee to have its report on the meas
ure ready for consideration of the full
committee Wednesday.
It is still doubtful whether the sub
committee will accept the Sisson bill
in its present form, which calls for
outright repeal Of the rider covering
the teaching Of communism in the
public school. According to reports
there is some sentiment in the sub
committee for Sisson's original meas
ure which would preclude the ad-
vocacy OF communism in the class
room.
1t Is foregone conclusion, how
ever. that one Of the two Sisson bills
will be favorably reported to the full
committee. What the full committee
will do is still another question.
Favors Outright Repeal.
If Mrs. Norton has her way. the full
committee will report the bill calling
for outright repeal, leaving the issue
for the House to settle.
Full committee approval of the bill
at its meeting Wednesday will enable
1t to reach the House calendar in time
for consideration on the next so-called
District day, April 13. 1t probably will
not be called up at that time, however,
because Mrs. Norton believes the
House will spend the entire day dis
posing the Ellenbogen bill to revive the
wartime rent commission.
The Sisson bill, therefore, would not
come before the House until April ~,
the last District day Of the month.

A Clark?

T IKE so many of the early Anglo

or Clarke, originated from an occu-

patton was undoubtedly the office of
clerk. This office was considered a
very superior one, as such a position
required the services of one possessing
great ability in reading and writing
ancient medieval lore. Consequently,
the Clarks were people of high intel
lfgence and were looked upon with
great admiration.

oil in Northern MOntana.-That belief
is general among leading geoI0gists today.
Wherever the Devonian has been tapped
by a drill, ON or off structure, oil has
been found, in Northern Montana, but
nowhere In commercial quantities, There
remain to be drilled some tests ON
STRUCTURE. At that time, there viii
be no lack of reserves for Montana refin-
ers for the next so years after all present
producing horizons are exhausted.
Here is the Importance of California
operators in this situation. They call
S,1OO-foot drilling shallow production.
In this country, 3,5OO-fOOt drilling is
called "deep" drilling. In California they
regard 10000 to II, 1000 feet as deep
Five-thOusand foot drilling win test aAI
known horizons i'm most Northern Mon
tana structures, down to and including the
Ordovician or Wilcox sand horizons.
IL takes no great vision to realize
that the unfOward events of the present
are the factors which win make fortunes
in the future. Today an operator can
get block OF leases where he is positive
of oil production and which will insure
him of fortune. Good leases are avail
able everywhere virtually for the taking
certainly for a minute fraction of the
cost of WILDCAT acreage i'm California
After all OF the proven or semi-proven
ground in Montana is taken up, there
remain scores of well defined structures
where the presence Of oil at the Madi-
son contact has been established by wells
@riIled ahead of the day of acidization.
Each one of these structures must be
re-driIIed. to try the use of acid in the
time; and thereafter drilled deeper to
test the lower formations.
We have known of q number of struc-
lures that did NOT produce i'm the UPPER
sands which have been productive in
the lower sands, but we can recall no
important structure that had oil i'm the
upper sands that did not produce, when
properly tested, I'm the lower sands. That
is a rule that, If adopted by a royalty
buyer or an operator, can be converted
into a fortune.
We would be out buying wildcat roy
aIties today, in view OF the new leasing
activity that is going on, were it not for
the fact that we can buy royalties I'm
producing oil fields for less than the
usual cost Of wildcat royalties. We are
guided by the maximum service a dollar
win yield. If we can buy royalties i'm
Kevin-Sunburst field for less that che
cost of wildcat many miles from pro
dUcttOn. WHY should we bother with the
wildcat? When the cream Is gone we
win return tn the ''whoIe milk
We have this week secured ROYALTY
for our members which costs about HALF
what we ordinarily nay for wildcat
royalty. But we would not sell short
ON Montana oil. The price of ROYALTIES
in Montana is going UPWARD; OF that
there is little doubt. We are buying at
the absolute low point today. There is
but one way for the pendulum to swing
and that is UPWARD. Located as we
are, far from financial centers. Montana
offers the greatest opportunities to be
found anywhere In the oil industry, avail
able to the few who realize their value.
Greatest Of these values available this
week is a Kevin-Smburst royalty.

SOMETHING GOING
TO HAPPEN?

as there comes a time In the life of
every field when new wells cannot be
completed fast enough to offset decline
in production, so that time must Inc
vitality come to states.
California has arrived at the point
where the industry can fOrsee the de-
pletion OF its present fields at the present
rate OF production, unless new fields are
discovered. New fields are hard to find.
One field discovered this year appears
to be very important. Tt was discovered
by Shell OH company which owns it In
fee simple. II win be controlled by Shell
as reserve for years to come. Other
companies are not so fortunate.
AS a result, California oil men are
turning their attention elsewhere: chiefly
to Wyoming and Montana 1t is not
impossible that a few years hence, Cali
foEnia viii be drawing upon the Rocky
Mountain states for part of its supplies
Despite the terrific cost of drilling deep
wildcats, the major oil companies have
worked over California with the proven
biaI fine tooth comb for new possible
oil bearing structures. 1t is unlike Mon
tana where a man can get from eighty
acres to eight thousand acres for the
asking some Californians visiting in our
office this week told of paying 5000 an
acre bonus for WILDCAT leases in CALI
fornfa--with one-sixth royalty! That
ROCo 10 SHOW now valuable Oil land has
become i'm California.
Sudden realization that 10 years hence
or 20 years hence-an early date i'm the
corporate life OF the major companies
they viii need more crude to supply their
filling stations, has sent California oil
scouts into adjoining states, and today
we are positive that one or more of them
viii enter actively into Montana oil de-
veiOpmemt. The wiser companies will
hufkH rrr1rs L..
states to care for their future needs and
meantime they VIII take advantage of
the opportunity afforded by unusual local
market conditions.
Montana hasn't enough excess Dro-
duction today TO run another large re-
s'nery. It would require the drilling of
several wells TO bring production mn TO
the margin of safety SO the over
production today is merely an aggrava-
ton. 1t affords opportunity for market
ch1seiers and gives rise to INSCRIPTIONS
practices. This is annoying, If not dis
couraging. But every barrel OF over
production hastens the day when there
will be a demand for more production.
Called upon for more oil, producers
OF Kevin-Sunburst could quickly double
and treble the production of that field
by utilizing modern drilling practices.
With this vast field less than one-efghth
developed. it is apparent that were 100
strAngs or tools kept working, IL would
he a matter OF decades when the field
would he drilled out.
Then after the upper horizons are
trained, there remain the lower horizons,
as yet untouched although proven for OIL

from the DevOnian and lower horizons
as IL win from the "seeDage oiI'' horf-
zon at the ton Of the Madison lime. The
