is being done to refloat the
land that is sinking from lack
of sustaining fluid.
The two new pumping plants
cost $2.5 million. They bring
the total of these plants to
eight and the daily capacity of
water injection to 874,000 bar
rels through SO wells.
Eventually the city and pri-
vate operators plan to have
268 water-injection wells pour
ing a million barrels of water
a day into the field.
Engineer M. A. Nishkian,
who designed the pumping
plants, said five years of pump
ing a million barrels a day
would replace the fluid that
has been removed by oil drill
ing.
The subsistence has created
a 20-square-mile saucer ex-
tending easterly into downtown
Long Beach, where some large
buildings have sunk two or
three feet. The land has sunk
26 feet at the middle Of the
subsistence saucer.
Engineers say the subsistence
was caused by removal of more
than 800 million barrels of oil
since the Wilmington held was
opened in 1886.

Juvenile Action Barred
In Youth S HoIdupCose

by District Judge Charles F.
Mclaughlin. The latter, in de-
clining to hold juvenile pro-
ceedings in another case, had
declared he was not versed
sufficiently in child psychology
to act as a juvenile judge.
Several days ago. District
Judge George L. Hart. jr., also
declined to act as q juvenile
court judge in another waiver
case.
When Donald Murtha, court
appointed defense attorney, said
the law allows a District Court
judge to conduct juvenile court
proceedings. Judge MCGUIRE re-
ferred to this as a peculiar
provision" which, he said, did
not make it mandatory that a
district Judge act as a juvenile
court judge.
Juveniles are committing
too much of this type of crime
in the District" Judge Mcclure

the watchful eye of Uncle Sam,
is stepping up its campaign to
fight water with water and
keep the city from fitting into
the sea.
The city is battling a creeping
catastrophe called subsistence.
Unchecked, this land sinkage
would allow the Pacific Ocean
to cover the harbor and a large
section of the city. So far, it
has caused an estimated $50
million damage to harbor and
private property.
The Federal Government is
concerned because its $170-
million-dollar naval shipyard
in the harbor has been sinking.
The Government has threatened
to abandon it.
But there was a clear air Of
optimism as Federal, State and
city officials gathered yesterday
to watch the opening of two
powerful new water-pumping
plants.
The city is pumping millions
of gallons of sea water a day

As Site Of Fair
Committee Report
Wins Approval
OF President

President Eisenhower last
night by-passed Washington's
bid for the Worlds Fair and
recommended New York as the
site for the 1864 exposition, If
it is to be held in the United
States.
The President received and
approved a recommendation by
his three-man site committee
shortly after going to Walter
Reed Hospital for his annual
checkup.
The report said:
1--WE recommend that this
exposition should be held in
New York during 1864. We be-
lieve that New York, as q
symbol of freedom to millions
of immigrants and others, as
the permanent home of the
United Nations, and as one of
the worlds outstanding centers
of culture, finance, trade and
industry, fully measures up to
the highest standards for the
holding of such a fair.
"Your Commission received
the assurances of the highest
public officials. both State and
municipal, and of the many
qualified individuals concerned,
that there will be a maximum
effort in concept and operation
to achieve these national OBJ
jectives, and we are confident
of their ability in this regard.
New York, of all American
cities, is the best qualified to
accomplish the monumental
effort required.
Permanent Projects Here
1T happens, also, that the
year 1864 is especially APP
propriate in the case of New
York, since it will mark the
300th anniversary of the estab-
lishment and naming of that
city, and also the 18th ami
versary of its becoming the
home Of the United Nations"
The committee. headed by
Harry A. Bulls, Minneapolis
businessman in by-pasSing
Washington, which had made
a strong bid for the exposition,
said:
The Washington proposal.
in our judgment, deserves men,
ton. We have no lack of con-
f1dence in the intentions or
ability of its proponents nor do
we question the merits of their
proposal either in concept or
otherwise.
Rather, it is our view that,
at the present time, permanent
projects such as the currently
planned National Cultural Gen.
ter are more in keeping with
WaShington's unique charac-
ter as the home of our Nations
enduring% institutions"
Senator Javits, Republican
Of New York. said the selection

responsibility to the country to
make this worlds fair a true
symbol of all Americans dedi-

Washington, D. c., fought a
