Ward, in the Journal of Sep tember 13, 1942, sets out the impor tant part played in the wildcat oper ations. He states that at this time the small t wildcat oper ator* are to open up new fields to keep the tanks rolling and the planes flying. It to an established fact, through U. B. government geological surveys, that in Coos county, Oregon, there is an arch or dome unbroken of Eocene of the tertiary age, which is the for mation that produces the major part of the petroleum of this nation. This I have drilled in the past four years, and further established production to be through coring and the use of elec tric logging, used by the big oil com panies, which showed more than three hundred feet of producing zones. I also had a gas analysis made by Smith Emery, of Los Angeles, Cali fornia, which showed a petroleum gas of a high quality—this being one of the resources needed for the de velopment of the many minerals which are found in that same area, needed for our war industries. • All of this information I filed at the State Capitol.

Sept. 29—State Industrial Accident thousand dollars for the first com mercial producing well, and even some counttea. But this state, being a dumping ground for petroleum products of the big oil companies, seems to be in reverse of other states. You may wonder why. I learned why. After I had reached the limit of my credit and all the finances I could rake up and had the well to the point of bringing it in, I could not get the money to do this. v At this point, A. L. Kullancfer, of Vernonia, and Roy Kullander, of Milwaukie, Oregon, proposed to some of the interested parties in the enter - prise that the Kullanders had the fi- nancial backing to finish and com- plete the well if they could have full charge of the operations. Through the influence of Joaeph Carson, of Port- land, and B. L. Eddy, of Roseburg, and others, Kullander took over. Shortly after, a stockholders meet- Ing was hold and officers elected to their wishes. Being one of the di - rectors thereafter, A. L. Kullander haggn to take some of the corporation teases in his own name, and hired John A. Kelly of Bakersfield, Cali fornia, who claimed to be an expert oil well driller and claimed also that be had drilled in India and worked for the major companies for years. Mr. Kelly was placed in charge by making him driller and manager at a salary of eighteen dollars a day. He sood junked the well and made it worthless, and told me and others that they could not afford to let that well come in. I let them have the use of the drill ing rig and equipment (a No. 6 ro tary) without cost. Soon after this, October, 1941, they sold some of my' equipment to the Alaska Junk, which I I tied up through the courts. Febru ary, 1942, I got them in court and the case was tried before Judge Dal M. King, at Coquille, who took it under advisement. No decision has been rendered to date.
