WRIT FRANKLIN SAYS
THE FUTURE OF OIL
INDUSTRY IN HANDS
Of THE PRODUCERS

The future OF the oil industry"
states Writ Franklin. prominent local
oil operator, will be as we'll as ever
provided that the producers curtail
development in the fields to avoid
an overproduction, and in this man
ner cooperate with the pipe line COM
panies. Otherwise more oil will be
brought To the surface than can b.
handled without waste.
I'm my opinion, If producers will
cease drilling operations, and stop
bringing in new production, cut in
the price Of crude may bc avoided and
the industry stabilized.
AT the present time there is suf-
ficient demand for the present output
from the European markets, and
there would be no oversupply il the
movement of refined products TO Eu-
rope could be financed. Bankers are
now busily engaged devising II plan
TO carry out this problem of finance,
and there is no doubt but that within
The next 90 days the products will
move, and conditions will again re-
sumo normal. However. in order to
have proper conditions at the end
Of the 90 days, ii is absolutely essen.
tial that the producers shut down
now on new operations. Otherwise,
the price of the crude is threatened
and the oil which would unnecessarily
be brought TO the surface would 30 TO
waste.
THE pipe line companies have al
ready cut down their runs. and the
storage tanks OF the individual pro-
ducers are rapidly filling. There is
the possibility that what production
there is now, may be taken care Of
until the market rights itself, but
there is absolutely no room Mt present
for oil from new wells. And there Is
no reason for bringing in wells now
which could be brought in later.
"The condition of the oil market at
the present time is merely temporary.
1t Is known that the supply is not
greater than the demand, but that
ut the present time there is a finan-
cial barrier which prevents the refin-
cd products from reaching the con-
sumers. such condition does not in
any manner justify a cut in the price
of oil, but merely calls for delay
or curtailment in production.
"It is wholly up TO the producers ms
to whether the price Of oil will be
cut. and the market dcmoralized, or
whether development will be curtail-
ed until the temporary slump has
ceased. and again be resumed when
expectation is opened and the market
ing conditions back to normal"

OIL MEN OF ARDMORE
WILL MEET TOMORROW
TO DISCUSS AMENDMENT
TO PRODUCTION TAX BILL

The oil men of Ardmorc will
meet tomorrow at noon luncheon
at the Chamber OF Commerce
rooms TO devise ways and means
to mend the present gross pro-
duotion tax bill TO the effect that
oil producing counties receive Il
larger proportionate share of the
gross production tax than they
are now receiving.
The meeting is called as a result
OF u telegram which was received
here by Secretary Barron of the Ard.
more Chamber of Commerce. and
which was wired by the Chamber
Of Commerce of Okmulgcc. The telc-
gram states that the returns from the
state production tax on crude oil
produced reflects that oil producing
counties are being excessively and
enormously taxed. the amount Of
gross production on crude oil being
more than q million dollars in excess
on the estimates return for the cur
rent year. oil producing and pros
pcctive oil producing counties, con-
rinues the wire, suffer because of not
receiving their equitable apportion-
ment Of gross production tax collect
ed The nature Of the oil business
is such that IL makes local govern
ment and upkecp OF roads higher than
ordinary, hence. oil producing and
prospective oil producing counties
should receive larger portions OF
money collected by the state than
they now receive.
The telegram requests that the oil
producing counties propose ways and
means to mend such conditions aS
now exist IN regards To- the propor-
ticning of gross production tax. and
that senators ana representatives. be
instructed to bring about this end.
