MAY MAKE BACK RUNS
Art L. Walker Agrees to Plan that
Promises to Advance the Price

With oil at Gushing selling as high
as soc and Healdton oil selling as low
as soc and none of it at higher price
the producers are naturally a little
nervous over the situation and efforts
are being made to cause an advance
in price. Art l.. Walker called Writ
Franklin over the phone yesterday
morning from the fields and stated
that persons who shut in their wells
and refuse to sell oil at soc, will be al
lowed to open them and be allowed to
make their back runs when the price
goes higher. This movement on the
part of the corporation commission
should result in advancing the price.
There are five companies in the field
now which have declined to make
sales at soc and have shut their wells
in. When the price goes higher and
these wells are connected with the
pipe line, those who sold oil at 30c,
will get very light runs until the back
runs are made good, and those who
shut in their wells, will get heavy
runs at the advanced price.
This plan was outlined a few days
ago by Mr.. Franklin and there are
reasonable prospects that it can be

drill one or more wells in the neigh
borhood of Poolville and Homer, pro-
vided a sufficient amount of acreage
is gathered to justify his drilling. This

gist of recognized ability and land

state that they will give him every
needed cooperation. Mr. Gould is now

One producer, in discussing the
deep well proposition said he was
in no hurry about the deep test until
such time as the shallow production
is better cared for. r. M. McFarlin
stated while here the latter part of
of the week that the first time his
drill missed shallow sand that he
would drill on down as deeD as there
is any reason in going, but lid not
think there is any great necessity
in an early drilling of such a test
until the shallow production is cared
for.
