PRICE CRUDE ON
INCREASE STATES
LOCAL OPERATOR
Walters Crude Brings So 90 Now Says
Report From Cotton County; In
dcates Probable Increase In
Oil Price at Cement.

Harry Culver. secretary of. the
NebOkla Oil and Gas syndicate, re-
ceiyed word this morning from the
Walters field taat crude from the
Walters wells is now bringing So
per barrel, the figure being an ad-
vance from $225. The price, Mr..
Culver states was established by the
Magnolia interests.
The word came to Mr.. Culver
from an associate in a royalty prop
osition which is in no way connect
ed with the Neb-Okla syndicate.
Mr.. Culver also stated that the
Neb-Oka test, Walters field in sec
ton 14-3s-11w will be started again
probably tomorrow. The company
headed into a streak of bad luck
some days ago when the derrick
wars burned and part of the tools
put out of commission The rig has
been rebuilt and the tools put back
in shape to resume the test, Mr.
Culver stated
'The fact that Walters crude has
taken a jump of rs cents barrel
means great deal to operators il
that field" said Mr.. Culver. 1t means
that producers with small wells car
now afford to operate them, where
as at a low price they would b'
forced to abandon their wells.
"This will doubtless mean grea
deal to the Cement field producer
as well. for reason that if the Wal
ters crude takes a jump in price
the Cement crude should also CON
nl3nd a higher price In my opinion
it means more operations in ever

"Our federal trade commission will
