In September, 1919, a month after the original Foster well, probably the best paying gas well in the world, was drilled in, the average daily delivery per well in the McKeesport field amounted to 31,200,000, cubic feet. This production has dwindled to such an extent that the average well today is delivering less than 35,000 cubic feet per day. The unusual success of the Foster well resulted in a wild scramble for leases and concentrated drilling sites and produced such unwarranted drilloperations that up to October 1, 1921, 608 wells had been drilled, rof which 429 were dry or abandoned and 129 producing. The decline of the McKeesport field is illustrative of the decline, of other natural gas fields throughout the country and clearly proves the truth of the statements of the' United States Bureau of Mines and the, country's leading technologists and mining engineers that natural gas will be' completerly exhausted within a few It is because of this steady decline in the producing fields that the government and natural gas men are urging careful conservation of the remaining supply of the valuable and convenient fuel.

THE OLD HOME TOWN BY STANLEY (HOLD NEWT GIT ER SHES FER AREARIN HOME BRUNO! YOU SAY THEY WILL RUIN (TH 'DE NO-NOWATCH BRUNO! JUST AFTER THE PAINTERS FINISHED THE WAITING ROOM FLOOR THEY FOUND THEYD HAVE TO GO OVER IT AGAIN STANLEY DISCLAIM ON CIVIL SERVICE White House Officials Outline the President's Position.

EFFICIENCY FIRST, THEY SAY President's Recent Removal of Exec tives In the Bureau of Engraving Again the Subject of Democratic Attack In Congress--No Intention. at Present of Changing Method of Selecting Postmasters. Washington, April house officials, after President Harding's recent bureau of engraving dismissals bad been, made the target of Democratic attack in congress, disclaimed any intention by the president to impair the operation of the civil service law. The intention of the chief executive, it said by officials in his confidence, was not in any sense to break down the spirit or the letter of the civil service regulations, but rather to improve the efficiency of governmental machinery under those regulations. The president was said to take the position that as head of the government he is responsible for efficient governmental administration.

If there is anything in the civil service that tends to tie the hands of the executive, it was said, it will be looked into, but without any effort to undermine or attack the civil service system. It was also, asserted that there is no intention at present of changing the method of selecting the postmasters under the presidential appointment. The system under which the present administration is working, that is of taking one of the three highest under a competitive examination, is regarded by the white house as giving, on the whole, very good satisfaction. The administration recognizes that there is considerable criticism in some quarters over the present methjod of selecting postmasters, however, and officials suggested that if there was too much irritation the president might be forced to withdraw some postmasters from under the modified civil service plan. Democratic senators renewed their attack on the administration's civil service record with renewed complaint against the bureau of engrav-1 ing- dismissals, which, in turn.

were defended by Republican senators. Taking the floor in debate on the judgeship bill, Senator Harrison criticised the Republicans for not acting on resolutions to disclose the president's reasons for the bureau dismissals. Mr. Harrison said there apparently was a "diabolical plot to do things under cover." Senator Moses declared the Democratic attacks had as their basis "animus wholly partisan," while Sen ator New said if other statements of Senator Harrison were based on similarly "slim foundation, they were uot entitled to a great deal of credit." TO FIGHT WET PROPOSAL 1-Saloon Leaders Giving Ohio Movement Close Attention. Washington, April force of the national organization of the AntiSaloon league will be thrown into Ohio this summer to stem the tide of beer and wine sentiment if this becomes necessary, Wayne B.

Wheeler. general counsel and director general of the Anti-Saloon league, indicated here. The beer and wine movement in Ohio is receiving closest attention of Anti-Saloon league officials, not- only because unfavorable reaction from prohibition 'in Ohio may be reflected in other states, but because Wheeler came to Washington from Ohio, and still maintains his voting residence there. Wheeler is advising now with AntiSaloon league officials in Ohio and later. if it becomes necessary, he will go to Ohio to work shoulder to shoulder with State Director White and other drys.

British Troops Guard Border. Belfast, April troops with machine guns are patrolling the 10-mile front on the Ulster-South -Ireland border between Belcoo and Garrison, County Fermanagh, where forces of Ulster special constables and Irish republican army troops are in close proximity on opposite sides of the frontier line.
