US. Terminates
 Treaty Commerce Navigation Japan
WASHINGTON, July 26 lP)

WASHINGTON, July 26 tP1 - The United States tonight serv- ed notice that it is terminating the 1911 Treaty for Commerce and Navigation with Japan, op- ening the way toward an embar- go on the shipment of raw mat erials to that country.
 Under Secretary of State Sayre handed to Japanese ambassador Horinouchi, a note informing him of the step. The action came like lightning firm a blue sky, since the Senate Foreign Relations Committee discussing a resolu- ton calling for denunciation of the treaty, postponed further dis cussions until later in the week.
 Earlier today Secretary Hull conferred with Roosevelt, follow ing talks with far-eastern advis- CTS. The President approved of, and perhaps ordered the action but six months must pass before the abrogation can go into effect.

School Building Addition Bids Are Rejected

The Special Meeting of the Nome City Council to consider bids for the new addition to the school building, was held We'd nesday evening at the city hall.
 Only one bid was received, and that in the amount of $12,88109, from H. F. Paterson After con- siderable discussion, the council took action rejecting the bid on the grounds that it exceeded the allotment of funds made by the Territorial Legislature, which amounted to $l0,000.
 The Clerk was instructed to communicate with Commissioner of Education Anthony E. Karnes, and advise him that the bid had been rejected, and that plans were being made to call for new bids, on reduced specifications.
 A committee was appointed by the Mayor to prepare a new sketch of the addition and sub init it for consideration at the next meeting.

Dr. Vim. Mayo Of Mayo Bros. Passes Away

ROCHESTER, Minn., July 28 lP1-White-haired Dr. William J. Mayo, son of the country doctor who trained him to become one of medical history's greatest sur geons, died today from an ail- ment upon treatment of which he gained much of his fame. He was 78 years of age on June 29th.
 He was stricken with sub acute perforating gastric ulcer and was operated on last May at the famed Mayo Clinic, which was founded by his father, his late brother pr. Charles Mayo, and himself, more than a half century ago.
 His death removed, within the short space of few months, the last of the famous trio of the medical world. His sister, who stood across the operating table from him for quarter of a cen tury died March 21st; and his brother Charles, died in Chicago May 27th.

Ending Treaty Regarded As An UnfriendIy Act

TOKYO, July 27 l49 - The United States decision to termin- ale the 28-year-old Commerce and Navigation Treaty with Jap an is regarded in the Foreign Of flee and in other official circles as an unfriendly act because of it's abruptness. A foreign office spokesman declared the ending of the treaty is lntlslnkable. Nobody can ignore the political significance of the action which was not preceded by any ex- change of notes or previous not fcation and we fail to under stand Amerjca's real intention"
 He said # was disclosed in of ficial circles that the Japanese government is already studying possible steps to retaliate in an economic way. Japan, he said, wonders if the action lis intend ed to protect American interests not only in the Orient but at home. It may be either an inter national or domestic political ges ture, but there must be some thing behind it."

At an address to a press conference. he said, however, there is a real problem involved in the measure which is at the White House awaiting presiden- tial action.
 The problem, the President sad was what can people do under very very broad language, for instance might be interpreted to forbid 3 person to attend political rally or voluntarily con tribute campaign expenses.
 A friend said he would take with him, on a weekend fishing cruise, a lot of documentary eVi- dence on the bill

5-Yr Controversy Ends When Council Pays

The Council Wednesday night, in special meeting ended a five year controversy over property rights, when it voted unanimous ly to pay the sum of $825.00 to H. F. Harper, owner of the Nome Motor Co.
 Mir Harper's contention was that he was to receive sixty front feet of property on the cor nor of Hunter Way and Front Street, and that he had received only forty front feet. Settlement of the claim was made on the basis of the assessed valuation per front foot for the twenty feet claimed.
 Settlement of this dispute is believed to clear up the property encouragement brought about af- ter the fire of 1884, when proper ty owners in Nome literally threw all of their property in the burned area into a common pot" and then drew out, what each and everyone believed to be their legitimate ownership. It was expected that this would be the final claim arising from that

IvTOUL TON SAND TREND At CUT BANK
Santa Rita Tribal Well Flows
When Drill Taps Thin Pay Sand

Accurately spotting a narrow sand strip
between two wells on the north flank of
Cut Bank oil field, Santa Rita Oil company
found Moulton sand production in its Tribal
No 9 well, in the center of the east line of
SEANEH Section 16-35-6W, during the
past week
The wells on either side had no Moulton
sand but NJ. S Darling, geologist for Santa
Rita, theorized that the Moulton sand pro-
duction occurred, along trend" and spotted
the Tribal well along line projected from
southwest to northeast, from Texaco-Tweedy
No 2, in NEHNWA Fl through Santa
Rita-Lander Nos 2 and /, thence northeast
ward a quarter of a mile onto the Tribal
lease, belonging to the Blackfeet Indian tribe.
The well on the west, Tribal No. 7, had no
Moulton sand, likewise the Tribal No. on
the east.
The Tribal No 9 hit the MouIton sand at
2871 to 2774 and had two feet of saturation,

In the 172S-foot Fulton Com
monwealth-Thomp well four
valves will be used, one at the
bottom and then at intervals, the
fourth being 700 feet from the top
The device works on the principle
of ram, frequently used to pump
water, except that the Wilson flow
valve operates at very low gas
pressure. In the Fulton we'll there
is adequate pressure but in wells
which have no gas, the gas can be
introduced between the tubing
and the casing. 1t requires about
SO pounds of pressure with a vol
ume of from rs to 100 cubic feet
of gas per barrel of oil.
The oil enters the first valve,
flowing past a valve suspended
by a spring. AS soon as the first
unit fills with oil the weight
closes the valve and the downward
of the valve operates a
sleeve which exposes two small gas
ports into which gas flows with
sufficient pressure to lift the oil
into the next similar trap.
Thus can be visualized a stream
lined oil field production system
where wells will regulate their
own production by underground
valves which turn on and off au-
1t is claimed that the
smallest wells are kept in steady
operation by these robot produc-
srs, not only initiating but improv-
ng on natures methods for bring
ng oil to the surface.
No sooner does production begin
o decline than an added supply
If high-pressure gas is introduce
ID through valves, which open and
hut automatically as the oil rises

tie unhampered, while raising it

SQUEEZE JOB
TRIED AGAIN

The first effective squeeze
job" in Kevin-Sunburst field ap-
peared to have been completed on
Friday at the Cassidy-P Phoenix Mu-
tual well in NWH NWA Section
2S-35-4W, in the Midway district
between Kelvin and Cut Bank oil
fields.
Cement, introduced into the for
nation under 1000 pounds pres
sure, is believed to have shut off
a flow of water below a flow of
high gravity oil near the top of
the Madison lime. Squeeze jobs"
have proven very effectual In 9TH
er fields in shutting off water
while allowing oil to continue to
come into the hole. The first at
tempt on this hole failed when the
cement did not set.
Before acidizing, Cassidy had a
column of 700 feet of Alb gravity
green crude in the hole. After aci-
dizing, water displaced the oil and
it is believed that 1T is bottom wa
ter that came in from a lower
strata rather than with the oil
since the first oil contained no wa
ter whatever
The Perkins crew forced six
sacks of cement back into the for
nation after circulating fresh wa
ter to drown out the gas which
had been coming through the wa
ter. After forcing the cement in
to the formation, the hole was al
lowed to stand under 1900 pounds
pressure from Tuesday evening I'M
til Friday morning.
