KATALLA OUTPUT
50,000 GALLONS
A MONTH NOW;
KATALLA. — (Special) — The St.
Elias Oil company, which has a pat
ent on ICO acres of land near here,;
is now manufacturing 50,000 gallons.
of gasoline and distillate a month,
which is produced from a high grade
parrafine base oil of the same qual
ity, or better, than is found in Penn-1
sylvania.
George C. Hazelet is superintending
the sinking of three new wells, which
the company will have in operation
this year, in addition to the six wells
which are now being pumped. One of
the new wells is down 520 feet, and
will be completed this month. The
oil is struck at a depth of from 450
to 700 feet.
The company does not intend to
drill to the deeper sands, simply aim
ing to supply this section with a por
tion of the gasoline and distillate used.
They very wisely feel that they can
not afford to make the investment
necessary for the sinking of deep wells
with their limited acreage. The oil
sands are from 2,500 to 3,000 feet
deep, according to geologists. This
would be done, however, if the govern
ment would make arrangements for
the leasing of the ground in that field.
There is at present a leasing bill pend
ing in congress, and if acted upon
favorably would tend to develop the
Katalla oil lands.
The St. Elias company has a crewj
of fifteen men at work, and the pro
duct is transported to Prince William
sound ports by the launch Waif.
_A_
Forms are being put in place for
the concrete foundation of the new de
pot and work on the upper structure
will be commenced as soon as the lum
ber now en route on a barge is receiv
ed.

BAR GERMANS
FROM 20 ZONES
IN m YORK
NEW • YORK.—(Special.)—Ameri-:
ca’s heaviest blow at alien enemies in j
New York fell on June 4 when the
United States marshal's order forbid
ding Germans to enter 20 barred zones
around armories and naval militia
stations in this city became effective.
Between 15,000 and 20,000 males over
14 years of age are hit, it is estimated.
The zones are of half mile radiu3.
Hundreds of permits were issued to
Germans who had lived for years in
the prohibited districts and bore good
reputations, to persons employed there
—who could get forceful recommenda
tions from their employers.—and to
! those who faced ruin if unable to en
ter the zones to conduct their busi
ness.
Those who obtained special permits
to continue living in the districts can
not be visited by German friends as
no permits were granted “for social
purposes.” The forbidden areas in
some instances took in German clubs,
| restaurants and hotels. Under the
| rule, enemy aliens can pass through
the zones on public conveyances, but
cannot alight en route. Germans with
out permits caught in the barred dis
tricts will be interned.
