OV ERPR REDUCTION
Of CRUDE OIL Is
AGAIN ALARMING

The almost uninterrupted ex-
pansion OF crude oil production,
now near record proportions, has
further emphasized the necessity
Of curtailment If the current crude
price structure is to be maintained.
Daily average crude now in
creased last week to 1851. 700 Dbl.
the third largest weekly figure on
record. This is only about 10000
Dbl. below the 2,973,45O record
output in the week of August 81,
1929.
Several large purchasers Of crude
in the Midcontinent field already
have served notice that they are
curtailing commitments for lack of
storage facilities.
Gasoline consumption is increas-
ing rapidly with the return of more
favorable weather but stocks Of
motor fuel on hand are still large.

TRY OUT ACID IN
STRAYSAND AREA


A pump test is expected on the
newly completed Monopeg we'll in
the east end of Kevin-Sunburst
field where acid has been used on
the Madison lime contact in the
stray sand producing area for the
first time during the present year.
The Monopeg had some oil in
the stray sand but continued on
down to the Ellis-Madison contact,
it had show of oil. 1t was treated
with acid and allowed to stand.
During that time the hack pressure
increased to ESQ pounds, indicating
that the action of the acid had
opened up a new gas flow. Fluid
stood $50 feet in the hole when
rods and tubing were run Friday.
The well win be on the pump
some time today.

petroleum in March, 1886, was O.
921,50O barrels, the highest ever
recorded and a gain of $4,000 bar
rels over the average of March,

EXPOSITION IS ON

The International Petroleum Ex-
position at Tulsa is now on at
Tulsa, with very few Montanans
present, not because it isn't good
show but because it's springtime
in the Rockies and everyone who
has the price of the trip has his
nose to the we'll known sandstone.
The outstanding feature of the
exposition from the viewpoint Of
the editor Of the Jurnal, is the
campaign of Leslie
Brooks. publicity director. The
Journal is not hesitant in asserting
that the publicity matter sent out
by Brooks is he cleverest line ever
used to publicize national event.

FORTINE FARMER
FINDS GCLD-lEAD
I'M new DISTRICT

Samples OF excellent silver-Iead
ore were displayed to the Journal
this week by Fritz lager OF For
tine, Mont, from a new district 40
miles west of Whitefish in north
western Montana.
lager has developed ore 51k
miles east Of Fortine in a district
that has never before yielded any
precious metals. His mine Is on
Deep Greek mountain and the sam
pies he carries show % ounces Of
silver, 55 per cent lead and a trace
of gold. It comes from a vein three
feet thick--a replacement quartz
with a shale contact.
lager found some high grade
float while digging an irrigation
ditch above his ranch. He has since
devoted his winter months to pros
pecting for the source of the quartz
until he opened up the vein b.
digging a 14-foot shaft, finding a
fissure vein. Black stains in seams
of the surface ore indicate the
presence of manganese, he says.
Accordingly, he is attempting to
reach the fissure vein at a PORT
where he will have $50 feet q
backs. This tunnel is in 235 fee.
An upper tunnel was driven in 20
feet.
Inspired by the record of the
Sylvanite mine north of Troy which
is reported to be shipping s15-
600 per month, lager decided to
give up the slow work of single
lacking and came out to Great
Falls to find himself partner or
someone who will stake him to
and drills with money
to nut in steel tracks.
The Journal has made no in
qury regarding the property other
than to ascertain that 1t is a new
district where only five claims have
been filed, all by JAEGER. He can be-
reached by writing to Fritz lager

WOMEN DIFFER
OVER ARMS
BEARING

Should the women of America.
now that they have the vote and
equality for economic opportti-
nifty, bear arms in defense OF
their country?
In embattled Spain women are
bearing arms, taking their places
in the firing line, Battling for
their cause.
There have been isolated cases
in American history of women
taking their place alongside
fighting men, notably that Of
Molly pitcher. During the World
war women did notable service,
but in non-combatant lines, driv-
ing ambuianCes, working in rlu-
nitions factories, facing danger
but not at the front.
Washington women today we're
divided on the question Of going
out On the field Of battle. Two
leading fenirlists discussed the
problem, speaking as individuals
and not as representatives OF their
organizations.
said Rebecca Greathouse, Sec
retary Of the National Women's
Party:
eve wouldn't encourage the
taking up of arms by women. But
we say that women shouldn't be
prohibited from fighting If they
want to. They should have the
right to fight along with the men
If they so desire, but as for fOrc-
ing them-nO.
"The National WOman's Party
doesn't propose to be, and isn't,
. moral guide to its members.
We have Q large group who are
paCifiStS, and so would be hOr-
rified at such a proposition; we
have others who believe women
should do everything under the
sun.
"The one aim of the National
WOman's Party is to secure
equal legal rights and equal Op-
portunitieS with men. That
means women should have the
right to fight if they want to
but only if they want to-"
Anna Lord Strauss, second vice
president of the National League
of Women Voters, thinks there are
other things a woman can do
much better and more effectively
in the event of war. Her opinion
was:
I'VE don't say that women
have, or can hope to have,
complete equality with men at
the present time and under
the present circumstances. This
is true. in some cases, because
Of physical limitations.
"In . war, women can do the
business of organizing and all
those other necessary things
that men cannot do by virtue
Of the fact that they are at
the front, fighting"
