THE United States has not. al

might have been because, some
times, we have known that We did
not want to do certain things, yet
have not taken the trouble to ex-
plain what we have done or thought
in terms our neighbors could under
stand.
so, there's a good deal of mis-
understanding among older people
to be wiped out"
She called upon Western Hemi-
sphere Girl Scouts to aid in correct
ing any misunderstanding and said:
Democracy is only real democra-
cy when it does not stand still. If

Security Administrator Paul v. Nc
Mutt as leaders of labor and indus
try gathered today to discuss with
him the problem of job dislocation
caused by the priorities system and
stopping of silk imports from Japan.
Let racial prejudice fly out Of
the window in tackling the job Of
building Americas defense" declared
Mr.. McNutt in an interview. There
has been a vicious circle SO far as
the Negro worker Is concerned"
Immediate problem of the con-
ference in which he Joined with Is
national corporation heads. a SIM
liar number of labor chieftains and
representatives of the once of Pro-
duction Management was the plight
of silk MISUNDERSTANDING and re-
hiring them in defense work. An
other topic was subcontracting on
defense projects.
The gathering is the first Of its
kind to attempt to solve industrial
and labor dislocations. Diversion
of idle silk workers is only part OF
a broad plan for all industry. Those
in charge have indicated If the movs
here succeeds similar regional con-
ferences may be held throughout the
country.
Pointing out IS per cent Of all
basic defense contracts have been
allotted Philadelphia concerns. Mr..
McNutt predicted industry here
would need 100000 more skilled
workers within the next few months
and that at least $4,000 would be
imported into the area to meet the
need.

Bearing out his declared policy
Of approving public works expendi-

flood control projects, but it does
not make any appropriations for
that purpose" The projects are to
be undertaken "as speedily as may
be consistent with budgetary re-
quirements," from whatever funds
may be appropriated.
I'm approving this bill do not
intend to submit estimates of ap-
preparations or approved allicationS
of funds for any project which does
not have important value in the

"As for reports that the United

Outside OF Cat Creek and Dry Creek,
there has been little drilling OF faulted
areas ia Montana. Certainly no MAJOR
fault has been explored, and positively
there has been no drilling below the
Madison lime in major fault areas.
YET THERE ARE MAJOR FAULTS
PRESENT IN KNOWN PETROLIFER-

Furthermore, they are about to be
explored. What the result will be none

WAY ILL Montana ever have oil fields
wv comparable with Mexia, Powell,
WORKMAN and other history-mak-
ing fields of Texas? ID
The answer is: 81
No-not until similar Montana struc-
lures are found and adequately explored
"MeMa" is a magic word in the oil
industry because it was developed in the
days of early oil development in Mon
tana and it provided a flood of oil that
stagnated the market 1t produced
100000 barrels of oil in just ONE
year-as much as all the oil fields OF
Montana combined now produce In four
or five years.
Yet Mexia covers only 1904 acres. 1t
could be lost in one corner OF Kelvin
field Superimposed on Cut Bank field
it would not cover the area of the Big
Bend pool.
What does Mexia have that Montana
oil fields lack?
Had it not been for the vision of
geologist named Julius Fohs, Mexia
would perhaps have remained AN ABAN-
DONED GAS FIELD. It had small
amount of shallow gas, coming from for
nations above the lime, and plpeIne
was laid to market the gas. The gas

was a disastrous failure. Julius Fohs
could not get the ear of the major com
panies so he promoted" a promoter
named Colonel HUMPHREYS, whose adVer-
tisements were running In the TRACE
publications at the time Cat Creek was
discovered. He converted Colonel Hum
phries on the theory of deeper drililng
against fault which Fohs believed
present.
The word fault" was little under
stood by the public and scarcely by the
industry outside the geological crater
nifty in 1920. To nearly everyone the
word fault" meant that there was no
chance of finding OIL Many an oil man
told us OF a wonderful dome he found
only to discover that it was crossed by
by a fault''-and that meant, he thought
that it was useless to drill, because the
oil and gas had been allowed to escape
by the fault"
Colonel HUMPHREYS somehow overcome
public fear of faults" and succeeded in
financing a we'll through all the upper
horizons into the limestone, which is
called the Edwards limestone, about 500
feet thick And whereas everyone then
thought that SANDSTONES must be had

lime gave the nation Mexia, WORKMAN and
