Not Exactly Treason.

The american Truth Society
with main Offices in New York,
branch Offices in Chicago and plans
to establish other branches in New
Orleans and San Francisco, is re
sponsible for a statement that every
good American ought to read-and to
consider very seriously indeed.
This organization is one of the
principal disseminators in the United
States of the German propaganda.
1t is constantly sending out letters
under two-cent postage containing ar.
guments aimed to help the German
cause. The cost of the propaganda
is estimated to be many thousand dol
lars per day, and nobody seems to be
able to learn where the money comes
from, although it naturally is not
hard to guess.
If this pro-German propaganda
were nothing more than an attempt to
arouse American sympathy for Ger
many as against the allies, this move
ment would be no particular concern

TEXAS COMPANY HERE

Oil Sold ii S. Barrel and PIPE Line
Talk is Revived.
Representatives of The Texas Com
pany arrived here last night, and
there is revival of rumors that this
company will build a pipe line into
the Healdton field. Mart Moran, who
is at the head of The Texas Company
in Oklahoma. was here last night and
today. He was accompanied by D.
+. Wade of Tulsa, who is J. f. Cros-
bie's private secretary, and w. C.
Mundt, who is a civil engineer with
The Texas Company. Mr.. Crosbie
started with the company but became
i'll and returned home.
When Mr.. Moran was seen by a
reporter, he stated that he was going
to get out of town on the first train.
and beyond that expression he made
| no remarks. He is the representa-
tive of one of the big producing pipe
line and refining companies and as
such he does not do any talking to
the public.
What is known of The Texas Com
pany's plans must be guessed at. The
fact that he is here is evidence that
the company is interested in Heald,
ton. The fact that the leases of The
Texas Company are not the best pro
ducing leases in the field, is evidence
that Mr.. Moran is not here in the bad
winter months merely to look over
the property of his company. The
| further fact that he is accompanied
| by a civil engineer of his company
lends credence to the rumor that
! the company is planning to do some
thing here. But what that something
is. we have not been able to deter
mine.
There is still another fact that
stands out in rather a conspicuous
manner ]. f. Wade, who is with the
party. made a purchase yesterday OF
| 10000 barrels of oil in storage from
/ the Twin State Oil company. The
price was 81 a barrel, including the
steel storage The same offer has
been made to the Gates company and
| to the Ardworth company, and it is
probable that any producer in the
field who has oil in storage can get
| 81 a barrel for it, These facts indi-
cate that The Texas Company will
build a line out of Healdton if it
gets enough oil to justify the building
of a line. A stockholder in this COM
panv stated to this paper several
weeks ago that The Texas Company
would build a line in here. When the
| line is built it will be of six inches,
/ it will pass out of the field to the
east and will probably build through
Ardmore and to Durant, or near that
city. where it will connect with the
company's eight-inch line from Tulsa
to the coast.
The Twin State Oil company is
eduipped now to care for its produc-
ton. 1t will not build any more steer
storage. It's policy will be to get the
production out of the field. 1t is
making shipments in the name of the
parent company. which is the Sun
company. to its own refineries and is
also selling to the pipe lines in the
field
Producers here will welcome The
Texas Company's line. They feel that
more lines will mean better prices.
They feel that their oil is being un-
justly Disseminated against when 1t
sells for 60c, while Glenn pool and
other oils in the northern portion of
the state that are not higher in in
trinsic value, are selling for $l.2O
a barrel.
