WEST VIRGINIA THE ONE Bic
STATE IN GAS EXPECTATION

true that In the Wheeling district OF
West Virginia gas is being imported
from n"igEborinE states and that Mt
other points along the border OF West
Virginia gas is being imported from
Pennsylvania and Ohio. when II can
be obtained moro easily from those
states than from West Virginia sources
OF supply. Mr.. kr"bs admitted that
this was the case. Various oth"r CUES.
tiunS concerning details OF accounting
for gas used by gas producers Ia the
course of operation OF their wells and
plants and methods OF measuring gas
consumption were asked by Mr.. We'll.
Nr. KrchS said that very few producers
measure the gas they use themselves,
but that most OF them estimate tn"
amount 50 used. frequently charging
themselves for 1t in their annual re-
ports. II was alho shown that Ohio.
Pennsylvania ana Indiana imported Gus
from each other. and that NincenncS,
Ind. obtained IT, supply from Illinois.
West Virginia Leads.
II was brought out that since 1909
West Virginia had produced more nat
ural gas than any other state. IN that
year tho production being I6G.435.O92
thousand cubic feet for West Virginia,
as compared with 12T.697,014 thousand
cubic feet for Pennsylvania In 1918
the states producing natural gas ranked
as follows: West Virginia.. Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania. ohio and California.
Many questions were also asked In
regard 60 the carbon black industry.
Mr.. Wei asked II tho manufacture OF
carbon black from natural gas was not
the most wastcful method OF obtaining
Il. and if the federal bureau OF mines
had not advised It's discontinuancc as
a means OF conservation. Mr.. Krebs
said he had not been officially advised
as to that. but he knew that during
the war. when the fuel administration
was in power. the manufacture Of car
bon black from natural gas was not
discontinued. because II was needed for
rubber tres printing ink and other
essential things. 1t developed that
manufacturers OF carbon black from
natural gas are moving from West Nir-
ginin TO Louisiana. because they claim
natural gas is cheaper in that state.
