OIL FIELDS TO GO DRY
IN 1943, SAY EXPERTS
Petroleum Deposits Now 80 Per
Cent. Exhausted, Federal
Trade Board Hears

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Petroleum
deposits Of the United States now are
more than 30 per cent. exhausted, and the
remaining supply estimated upon geologic
probabilities and the amount of produce
tion in present and prospective fields will
last only 81 years. This fact was en-
phasized today in reports of field experts
to the Federal Trade Commission, which
is about to report to Congress the result
of its inquiry into oil production.
The nation is producing so per cent. of
the worlds output. 1t was declared, and
of the amount 20 per cent is being ex-
ported and 25 per cent. is used as fuel un-
der boilers. Experts calculated that fully
90 per cent, is "wastefully utilized"
through the use of petroleum in making
artificial gas.
Present gasoline consumption In the
United States is estimated at 1900 ,000, 900
gallons a year. and with the constantly
Increasing demand for gasoline. It is
figured that domestic consumption will in
crease at the rate of about 100000, 900
gallons year. The automobile Is given
as one of the reasons for the great demand
for the product There now are 2,225,00
automobile, in use In the United States
and 1t Ia estimated that 3000. 900 will be
In operation one year hence. The demand
for gasoline exceeds that for all other pc.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, May SIN the first hour
of business today the foreign exchange
market was only moderately active. Rates
moved irregularly within narrow range.
Sterling. although heavy In tone, did not
break the low figure of i.76 for demand,
established late yesterday afternoon.
Francs weTr 'nchanged and reichsmarks
showed no quotable alteration. Italian
exchange and guilders. however, worked
lower. Quotations:

Leading international banking houses
this morning confirmed the theories that
the decline in sterling of about &c. in the
last week has been due to excess of pur.
chases of munitions and general supplies

curities Accordingly, the recent high
prices for railroad issues melted an un.
usually large amount of selling In this
market.
In reference to the reported impending
operations of the French finance ministry
as to securing deposits of securities to
equalize the foreign exchange market In
New York, prominent banking houses re.
call the fact that American securities of
the highest grade have been a favorite
purchase for number of years by French
investors.
In the late afternoon reichsmarks, after
being quoted at 76%, receded to 1914
and 1914. The market was very dull.
Sterling hung at the low 4.76 for demand
and 4.76hnj@4.76 Ole for cables and

Collapse of Dublin Revolt and
Conscription Will Not
Satisfy Opposition
BY FRANCIS w. HTRST
Special Gable to Evening Ledger

LONDON. May 3-The collapse of the
Dublin revolt has cleared the air but the
position Of the Government remains crit
ical after recent misfortunes.
Conscription will not satisfy The North
cliffe press.
The death of Viscount st Aldwyn, fol-
lowing Immediately the death of his son
and heir, removes an important figure
from public life. He was classed with
Lord Loreburn and Lord Curzon as one
of the three best speakers In the House
of Lords. ! well remember his clear. lucid
budget statements as Chancellor Of g1e
ENchequer to the Commons He was a
strong party man, but thought for him
self. as when he refused to abandon free
trade in 1904. He was a bank director
and presided over the Treasury Commit
tee TO control new capital issues. Alto
gether, his loss will be felt, especially
Just now. when the country needs inde-
pendent statesmen.
Business in the financial district is fea-
turcless. except that demand has sprung
up for Mexican silver mining shares, with
the rise in silver as the pretext for what
is probably an engineered movement. Sill
yer undoubtedly is being boarded on the
Continent, and the end of the war prob
ably will bring out these supplies and
gradually cause redundancy unless tho
excess of paper money be repaired.

emphasizes the strength of Greek finance

peace to be made in few months

INTEREST ON CURB
IN NEW SECURITIES
Metropolitan Petroleum in
Good Demand - Silver
Issues Are Strong

NEW YORK, May 3.-New issues are
gradually being forced into prominence
on the Curb and the former market
leaders, including Cuba Cane Sugar and
midvale Steel, attract little attention. AL
though supporting and distributing orders
are kept plentiful in those stocks,
Today Metropolitan Petroleum in which
there has been persistent accumulation
for some days, attracted most attention
because of the demand based on recent
official statements of important new con-
tracts and Of the purchase of additional
oil-produclng territory. These additions
and developments, 1t Is insisted, will make
the company larger producer than
Mexican Petroleum.
There was also a good deal of interest
attach d to trading in Atlantic Gulf and
West Indies, which sold at new high
record of 3Sh. Most of the buying came
from Boston sources, where reports were
current that the American International
Corporation had acquired an important in
terest in the stock
Silver stocks, including Nipisslne
naturally showed a strong tone in re.
sponse to the strength of the silver metal
market. The demand for silver Is now

some of these institutions that their pur-

RALLY FOLLOWS BREAK
In THE COTTON MARKET
Liverpool Buys October and January
Receipts Smaller

NEW YOSK, May 3.--There was less
activity In the cotton market at the OPEN
Ing today, but the early tone was steady,
with prices unchanged to points higher.
About the only feature to the transac-
tons was the buying of October and Jaru-
ary for Liverpool account. This shows Il
clean reversal on the part of the English
cotton centre, as for nearly three weeks
these options had been supplied from that
source. Southern interests and commits
sion houses were also buyers of the later
options,
After the call prices rose about 2 points
further but at these levels a supply came
In, which forced declines to or a shade
under the initial figures.
The market was nervous and irregular
later In the morning. A break carried
picesr some to II points net lower.
There were rallies of to 8 points from
the lowest, and the summary of the week.
ly Weather report was considered bullish.
This however, reflected conditions already
recognized in the advances of yesterday
and failed to stimulate any immediate de-
mand of consequence
