Smith made the following statcmen,
TO the committee:
You, perhaps. do not realize that
there are 100000 old wells In the
United states producing an average
OF about two barrels per well per

sion and II the increasing imports

be abandoned because the OPERATOR
cannot possibly go through another
depression such as they have
emerged from These old wells pro-
duced $4,000 QC0 barrels Of oil dur.
ing last year. which is &c per cent
OF the worlds supply; more oil than
Mexico produced last year or this
and moro oil than all the nations of
the world, excluding Mexico and the
United states produced last year or
this. The question is-do YOU want
TO trade Off through the spollcy Of
