JAKE HAMON GIVES
REASONS FOR HIKE
OF OlL-GAS PRICE.
Ardm0re Producer Also
Plays Republican Politics,
But Don't Forecast Re-
publican Victory

There is a probability that oil
will go to So barrel by spring"
said Jake L. Hamon today, as he
was leaving on the Santa Fe for Ok
lah0na City, where he will hear Gov
ernor Frank o. Lowden tomorrow in
mis- speech that will open the Republi.
can campaign in Oklahoma.
.Oil is bound to advance" said
Mr.. Hamon. Production is not keep
ing up with consumption, and there
will lie less oil produced for the reason
that material for oil well drilling
cannot be had. Operating expenses
keep climbing higher and it seems
that every steel mill has entered
the profiteering business and pipe is
entirely too high for oil at present
prices.
"The country has not produced
enough coal to keep the industries
busy during the summer months and
winter is almost here now and the
coal that has gone to the industries
will go to the furnaces in the homes.
The coal miners are on strike a big
part Of the time, and when they are
at work they demand the 36.hour
week and they are not producing a
sufficient amount Of coal to meet
the demands of the public
THE manufacturing industries and
many Of the railroads must use oil
for fuel. There is no machinery of
any kind used without also the use
Of oil and as the use of machinery
grows more universal, as it does
every month, so must the use of oil
become more universal and there Is
no way out of it except for the de-
mand to increase the price.
THE use of gasoline is being
limited all over the country at this
time. Thousands of new cars and
| trucks and tractor and airplanes are
being turned out and all Of them
expect to get fuel from the present
production of oil that is being brought
from the earth under the most trying
| conditions ever experienced by the
producers. There is bound to be an
| advance Of gasoline and of fuel oil
and the price Of crude will begin to
step up when the cold weather comes
and the price will reach a point
where the business will be more prof
liable for the producer.
Natural gas is another commodity
that is advancing in price. Cities
everywhere are paying more, much
more for natural gas, and Ardmore
is fortunate that the price here has
not gone higher. 1t will go higher
this winter. There are sufficient
reasons based upon the actual cost OF
production and distribution, and gas
for fuel is certain to be advanced"
Mr. Hamon is Republican national
committeeman from Oklahoma. He
is a member Of Mr.. Harding's advis-
ory board and he is very close to the
presidential nominee and is one OF
the big men of the Republican party
in the nation.
However, Mr.. Hamon is more of a
business man than he is a politician
He is Independent in his views. and
retains his individuality regardless
of his official position in his party.
He expresses his own views whether
they coincide with his party or not,
and he does his own thinking and has
the courage of his convictions
He is very loyal to Senator Harding
and expresses the opinion that he
