DR.. r. A. Meyer who is very much
interested in the oil development of
Southwest Louisiana and has been
trying for over twenty years to inter-
est oil people in the exploration of
that section, in a recent letter to his
brother DR.. Fred Mayer, reports that
they have struck oil in Cameron, but
that there is so much gas they can't
handle it and that they probably win
have to devise some manner of handl-
ing it else dig another hole to low
er strata. He further states that he
has it on good authority, that a
geologist employed by The Interna-
tional Harvester Co., "who own a
large tract in this section" says that
the Cameron field will rival Tampico.
