industry.
At the time of the discovery
Signal Hill was devoted largely to
the cultivation of cucumbers by
truck gardeners. Land was valued
as low as 500 an acre. Traditionally,
the oil industry converts unproduc-
tive land into great wealth, and the
Signal Hill area was no exception.
Here was a dry barren hill on
which gardeners barely eked out
a living. Then came the oil men
and made !, 400 acres yield $500, 900
worth of oil to the acre.
During 1920 a party of Shell ge-
ologists completed their survey of
the area around Lon Beach. The
surface geology showed the pre-
sence of an anticlinal fold occupy
ing the high ground north of the
city. 1t was on this evidence that
Shell decided to drill a wildcat.
On March 2,3 1921 one of Shells
rotary crews started work on Ala
mitos No. 1. Rotary drilling was
continued to depth of 2,765 feet,
reached May 2, 1921. A core at that
depth contained oil sand. Ten-inch
casing was then cemented in the
hole and cable tool drillers replaced
the rotary crew It was customary
then to drill into the oil producing
horizon with cable tools because
engineers feared rotary mud might
seal off the oil sand.
With cable tools, drilling was con-
tinued to 3,114 feet. Then, during
preparation for production test,
oil suddenly blew out over the
crown block ia feet into the air
This flow soon stopped due to
clogging, but Shells 100000 wild
cat well was to mark the discovery
of new field.
During the drilling of Shells first
well, and Immediately thereafter,
tremendous leasing activity stirred
Signal Hill Like the early gold
rush days, there were real estate
booms and tent cities. The area had
been largely subdivided into small
city lots and sold as residential
property.
Two years after the discovery.
more than 300 wells were being
drilled at once Signal Hill was a
forest of wooden derricks, produc-
ing thousands of barrels of oil day
from the first and second of four
zones to be eventually exploited.
Oil prices were dropping steadily.
The supply was too great Any at
tempt to control drilling was doom
ed. Too many town lots on the
hill were owned by too many people

Cable Tool
Men Short
I'm Alberta

CALGARY-Questions in connec-
ton with the admission of United
States Oilfield workers into Alberta
to take up jobs have again been
under discussion here during the
past week and it is stated that no
important changes in policy are
likely TO be made Immediately.
The Department of immigration
will rely largely on advice from
the A. p. A. on field requirements
and it is expected that only highly
technical men will be permitted to
take up employment with the vari-
Gus companies, in cases where it
has been shown that men with
similar qualifications are not avail
able on this side of the line.
In this connection it is interesting
to learn that the provision of ex-
perienced cable tool drillers has be-
come more difficult in recent
months There has been a demand
for workers of this class and only
a week or so ago permission had
to be given for two cable tool
workers to enter from the u. S. be-
cause of the local shortage.
The A. p A. office is now inviting
experienced cable tool drillers who
are unemployed to communicate
with the secretary, Ed Kolb, Lam
caster Bldg, to be registered for
future Western Oil Elk
aminer.

BURKS NEAR START
ON MCDONALD WELL

Bill Burks and associates are re-
ported nearly ready to begin drill
ing on their shallow test of the
Mcdonald Creek anticline, on the
Teigen ranch about II miles west
of Winnett, and on fold parallel
ing the Cat Creek anticline. Previ-
Gus shallow wells in this area re
ported promising showings of oil
at moderate depths. Accumulation
of oil is looked for in the present
depth on the upthrow side of a
fault said to cross the upward
plunging anticline at right angles.

COST JUMPS SLASH
UNIONS EARNINGS

President Reese H. Taylor of
Union Oil Co reports that increased
costs of operation and the expense
of reconversion reduced the com
pany's earnings for the first half
of 1916 to $3,806,117, or u cents a
share, compared with $1.15 share
in the same period in 1915. Taylor
said the company's Madison lime

Bank field of Montana will add
substantially to our crude reserves

get rich before the fellow on the
next lot drained the pool. This mad
scramble to exploit Signal Hill re-
suited in a development campaign
with derricks jammed together like
tenement houses.
A new deeper zone eclipsing any
thing that went before 1t was dis
covered in early 1923. In that year
the field reached its production
peak of SO million barrels-a ire
mendous increase from its 1921 pro-
duction of rs thousand barrels.
By 1927 both drilling and produc-
ton had tailed off sharply, when
another and deeper zone 5000 TO
$500 feet) was discovered, and Sig
nal Hill relived its glory of the
early 'twenties.
Production from Signal Hill field
has gradually declined. Now, 1,135
wells produce about 25,000 barrels
of oil day.
Up to the first of June 1916, Sig
nal Hill, now called Long Beach
field, had produced 712,60O,O00 bar
rels of crude.
In 1945, with war demands on the
oil industry at the peak, Shell at
tempted to develop deeper produc-
ton by drilling to almost $4,000
feet Results were unfavorable, 1t
would appear that 1.-THE Hill" had
responded for the last time.

RUSSIANS MOVE In
ON WORLD OIL GAME

That oil may we'll be the under
lying motive for the next world war
is indicated in a dispatch from
Paris, printed by the New York
Times, revealing that Russia is
moving rapidly to assume a more
important role in lucrative world
oil markets.
According to the dispatch, a re-
cent surprise move by the Russians
has been to set up a Russio-Swiss
company to market Rumanian pc
troleum products in Switzerland.
"That it is a real financial coup be-
comes apparent when it is con-
sidered that not only will much of
the oil be drawn from properties
nOminally American-owned but also
virtually the entire Swiss market,
formerly the domain of American
and British-Dutch owned COM
panies, is almost certain to be cap
tured by the new company" the
Times article commented.
With the support of the Ruman-
ian government, and at least the
approval of the Swiss government,
the company will be in a position to
monopoliZe the most economic
source of Switzerland's supply of
petroleum.

Episcopal Study Budget
 Wage Increases
 Given Ministers

Philadelphia, Sept. 19 - (UP) - The House of Bishops of the Pro- testant Episcopal Church consider cd today proposed $3,386, ,887 church budget for 1947 which would grant salary increases to mission aries to offset increased living costs.
 The budget was approved yester- day by the House of Deputies at the church's 55th triennial conven- ton. The program called for wage increases averaging 10 percent for domestic missionaries, Is percent for personnel in the headquarters staff and 30 percent for foreign missionary workers. Both houses must concur before the budget is approved finally
 The budget committee, in it's re- port, urged that China be made the chief field of missionary endeavor because of the spiritual vacuum" there. Resumption of the church's missionary work in Japan also was recommended.
 The convention also retained the retirement age for diocesan, coad- tutor and suffragan bishops at 72 as set by the church's 1943 conven- ton in Cleveland. Retirement age for presiding bishops remains at 6S.
 The retirement rule affects only the Rt. Rev. Robert B. Gooden, suffragan bishop of Los Angeles, who is 72.
 Retirement pensions of $2,50O an- nually for bishops also were adopt ed. The Treasury of the general convention would make up the dif- terence If the retiring bishop was not entitled to $2,50O from the Ihurch pension fund.

UNCounciI On HoIidov
 Seeks Woy to End
 Greece WronqIe

Lake Success, N. Y, Sept. l9- tUP)-Delegates to the United Ma tionS Security Council took a day off from their war of words over Greece today to ponder ways of ending the dispute at their next meeting tomorrow
 A cross -tangle of proposed solu- tlons to the days-old debate of the Ukrainian charges against Greece and Britain faced them. The climax probably will be veto duel between Russia and the western powers or a decision to leave the case hanging lnconclusively for possible later de- bate or action by the Council.
 The proposals before the dele gates were:
 l. The demand of Paul Has luck of Australia that the Council merely pass on to new business without further action on the Ukrainian complaint.
 2. The proposal by Dr. Eelco van KleffenS of the Netherlands that the Council take note of border clashes between the Greeks on the one hand and Albanians, Yugoslavs and Bull garianS on the other without at- tempting to fix blame, and mo- tify the four governments the Council wants the border clash es stopped.
 3. The proposal of Andrei A. Gronyko of Russia that the Council pass a resolution which, in effect, would find the pres ence of British troops in Greece part of threat to the peace, and would demand specific con- sessions of the present Greek government. This resolution also would keep the case on the Councils agenda until Greece had complied with the require ments.
 4. A suggestion by Herschel V. Johnson of the United States-a purely informal sug- gestion which he said may be formalized later - that the Council appoint subcommittee to examine evidence of border friction involving Greece and her three Balkan neighbors.
 The Australian proposal had the support of several delegates, in- cluding some, like Johnson, wno desired also to take some action with respect to the border incl dents. But officials were not agreed on whether the Australian sug- gestion represented a subtantive or procedural question. If 1t were ruled substantive, Russia could kill 1. with veto.
