OIL PRODUCTION
DUE FOR BOOST

DALLAS, Texas, Dec. 26.-Big
oil producers of the southwest pre-
diet that peace will bring increase
production and increased consump-
ton OF fuel oil, lubricating oil, and
gasoline.
They declare that to meet speci-
fcations for high grade fuel oil for
admiralty purposes il was necessary
to refine much crude oil under
wasteful conditions. which will not
obtain in the future.
Increased consumption, producers
say. will result from neutral markets
replenishing their stocks. from more
general use of motor cars in Euro
pean countries that have been at
war, and from the use in Great
Britain, France. and Italy Of thou
sands of motor lorries, now in the
war zone, as auxiliary systems Of
overwOrked railways.
Increased Production.
But this increased demand will be
more than offset by increased pro-
ductiOn. officers OF the large Texas
companies declare. Production in
the north Texas field now is $4,000
barrels a day. the gulf field is pro-
ducing $4,000 barrels. the Kansa :
fields 1900 barrels, the Oklahoma
fields. outside OF Cushing and Heal
ton, 10000, the Cushing 44.500 and
the Healton 1880 The Texas fig
ures show an increase over figures
for the quarter ending Sept. 30,
which gave the total production as
S.244.S14 barrels. valued at SIS,
091,249. This was an increase of
m ore than million barrels over the
June quarter, and two million over
the March quarter.
Experts here say the Mexican
fields acne have a potential pro-
duction of 100000 barrels day.

YANKS DEVOUR
READING MATTER
Scientific Books Are Much in
Demand, Also, Among
u. s. Troopers.

PARIS-with more reading time
on their hands than ever before now
that the fighting has stopped, the
American expeditionary force, which
required 100000 books a month,
will devOur literature at a much
more staggering figure. The book
shelves Of every Y. NJ. c. A. and X
of c. hut are polished daily by the
constant return Of books read and
the taking out OF new books. and
the difficulty is in supplying rapidly
enough. according 10 Burton Steven
son. head of the American Library
association.
What the soldiers like best in the
way of reading Is reported back to
Mr.. Stevenson through the Y. NJ.
c. A, K of c.. Red Cross. and the
other organizations among which
the books of the American Library
association are distributed. as well
as through letters straight from the
soldiers themselves. His forecast Of
what they are going TO want was
cabled back TO the United States the
other day, in the following order
for books:
Need Immediately 1000 each ele-
mentary. advanced aritnmetics, geo
metries. trigonometries, chemistry
books, physics, agriculture, stock
breeding, forestry, business methods
accounting, commerce, banking. law.
architecture. Two hundred each
! bookkeeping. poultry raising. Re
quests pouring in show tremendous
demand for technical, educational
books. Recognizing warehouses TO
expedite distribution"
Fiction continues to be read by
the army. in spite Of its more seri-
Gus trend OF mind, at the rate Of
hundreds of thousands of volumes 8
month, Mr.. Stevenson said. Kipling
and Service are still the favorite
poets of the American soldiers.
Among the requests that come in
during the past week were two for
ordinary primers or A b G books.
from American born men who are
| finding their first opportunity TO
study their own language In a for
eign country. Mr.. Stevenson be-
lieves that the need for such educa-
tional books in the months after
peace is declared before the men can
go back to their own country, will
be tremendous.
The American Library association
is so well organized in France that
any soldier who makes a request for
particular book from any camp is
| apt to find it in his hands almost
more quickly than he would be able
to procure it in the United States.
The association beat its own records
| the other day, however, when two
boxes of books were delivered by
airplane to aviation camps.

irregular and considerably low

prevailed and most stocks showed
Improvement in price. Coppers
were weak in anticipation Of a
cut in the Inspiration Copper
dividend but directors OF that
company declared the regular
quarterly dividend OF $500 on
that stock and this was a signal
for shorts to cover in most all
stocks. Tone now strong and
market active. but with no spe-
cial feature and no news of an
important nature. All that can
be said Of the market is that il
is a traders affair with very lit
tie public participation which
is only natural at this time of

the removal of restriction on the
sale OF sugar here by the food ad-
ministration. sales have dropped of.
groCers say. Not only have the
number of sales decreased. but the
quantity demanded is less. one
grocer says his sales have dropped
at least rs per cent. The only ex-

effect Of knowing all the sugar
needed can be purchased at any
time, instead o. a limited amount IN
