tons which are OF vital Importance
to the industry. Ruman!a is particularly
favored as fitted TO take the initiative In
this work. as this nation holds third plac.

of the world.
The programme which has been out

proposed to gather together all lnforma-

looking TO the origin Of petroleum and
the geological circumstances which cause
the formation Of oil fields. 1t is also pro-
posed TO study the question of the trans
portition OF petroleum by land and water.
