Producers of Hewitt
Are Fast Suspending
Operations in the Field

True to the predictions Of the mem
bers of the committee In charge of the
shutdown movement in the Hewitt
field area. the completion of wells
which We're drilling at the time Of the
issuance Of the order by the corpora
ton commission has caused operations
in the Hewitt field to decrease To
great extent and as a result the
production NJ the Hewitt area is ex
pected to show a, desired drop within
the next few weeks. At the time the
order was issued. it was stated that
no noticeable effects would be appar.
ent until at least 30 days after the
date Of the order on account of the
drilling wells which were permitted TO
continue operations. Reports from the
fields state mat the oil companies are
laying off drilling crews Immediately
after the completion Of the wells ON
which they have been working and
no new operations are being commenc.
ed. In the Hewitt field proper very
few offsets are due and conditions
are such that the order of the corpora.
ton commission is being respected to
very close degree
