bility Of the gas being piped into
chickasha AS the day was very dis
agreeable and the well is located some
fifteen miles from Duncan, Mr. Els
fielder stated this morning that he did
not personally inspect the wells, but
spent the day in the city.
He says the Duncan people will not
talk much eoncerning the proposition.
as they wish to 10 their talking after
the wells are placed in operation.
There are two companies in Duncan
owning wells and are both endeavor-
ing to secure franchises to supply Dun
can with gas and have placed the
price at 80 cents per thousand feet.
which is ten cents cheaper than the
price quoted by Mr.. 0Hara to the
mayor and city council Of Chiekasha
for the gas supply here. The wells
are located at Hope, Okla, which is
10 miles northeast Of Duncan and
about an equal distance to Lawton and
