HEARING NEXT WEEK. STAN
pARD BACK OF PROTEST.

Oklahoma City, June 25.-Opposltloh
that is being developed in Tulsa and
other oil towns on the east side OF the
state to the proposed order by the
CORPORATION commission, prohibiting
the bringing in of any more oil wells
in the Oklahoma mid-continent Held
for period of ninety days is the work
of representatives of the Standard on
interests, according to a statement
made by Commissioner HenshaW on
Thursday night.
The order demanding cessation OF
drilling activities for at least three
months as called for by the producers
in the resolution adopted at the Tulsa
meeting Wednesday will be issued on
Saturday. Mr.. Henshaw says, will be
gardless of the protests emanating
from Tulsa. The order to be issued
Saturday, Mr.. Henshaw says, Will be
in the form of tentative proposal
and will be set for final nearing ana
determination some time next week
This is the most important matter
that has come before the commission
for the preservation OF the oil indus
try of this state" said Mr.. Henshaw
Thursday night "The situation de
. mands immediate attention and relief
such as will come through prohibiting
the bringing in of any more wells.

OIL TOWNS PROTEST
Say Curta iIment of Production Will In
jure Business.

Tulsa, Okla, June 25.-That the
action taken Thursday by Oklahoma
oil producers in favor of shutdown
in every field in the state will be bit
terly opposed by the business inter
ests of the towns affected and men
employed in the fields, was evident
Thursday when a petition was placed
in circulation here demanding that
the state corporation commission re-
fuse to heed the request of the pro
ducers for an official order compelling
ninety days cessation of drilling
activities.
1t is understood this petition will be
circulated throughout the oil country.
There is a question in the mind of all
as to the authority of the corporation
commission to make such an order. 1t
is claimed that body has no more right
to stop the production of oil than it
has to compel farmers to cease raising
cotton or corn. At the best yester-
days action is regarded, chiefly in
the light of a gentlemen's agreement.
If it is apparent shutdown for the
period named will bring about relief
from the condition of over production
existing in the Cushing and Healdton
fields and a better price for oil, it is
believed this agreement will be lived
up to, otherwise, it is predicted it will
soon be broken by some venturesome
wildcatter, who is keen to learn if
there is oil under some untested lease
he holds.

welcome

price of the refined product to such
an extent that the ultimate consumer
will pay for all expense of steel tank
age and waste.
We appeal to the oil producers of
the Mid-Continent field to stand to-
gether in this matter that the inter
ests Of all producers and the owners of
lands and royalties be conserved and
safeguarded and we believe that the
only practical way to accomplish this
result is by limiting the production to
the actual capacity of the various
transportation systems.
Two Fields Unaffected.
While the order will be made by the
corporation commission prohibiting
the drilling of new wells, it is not the
intention to stop all work, especially
that required in drilling offsets and
protecting titles. In this connection
Commissioner Henshaw was called up
on and said that the commission would
not take cognizance of wells which had
to be drilled and in such cases per-
mission would be given to drill. Hen.
shaw said: "You can see the commits
sion in advance of starting these
wells; for we will not have lot of
wells in and have the producers com
ing to us later on and telling us they
had to be drilled
Mr. Henshaw then said: '"There is
another thing about having to drill. If
necessary to drill such a WELL it need
not be on a line, but can be moved
back to be started. This will work
out all right and do not anticipate
any trouble in protecting leases dur
ing the period of the shutdown
There are two fields in which the
commission will not permit deviation
from the order and these are Cushing
and HealdtOn We do not expect to
be too strict in localities where the
wells never amount to more than
twenty to thirty barrels, but wherc
the size of the wells is a factor in
the fields total, then we expect to
adhere to the rule closely"

pendent producers. The opposition
that has developed to such an order
| am convinced, is the work of the
Standard Oil company"
The only relief that can be offered
Immediately to relieve the present
congested situation. Mr.. Henshaw be-
lieves will be to limit the production
to the actual amount that pipe line
companies can handle. At present ii
is said that thousands of barrels OF
oil are being wasted every day through
lack of transportation facilities.

commission will issue the order, fol
