Oklahoma Fields Optimistic

spcoiai to The World
ARDMQRE, June 30.-Oporators
Of southern oklahoma are very
optimistic and hopeful OF rise In
the Mid-Contincnt crnde quotation
In the near future, which they be-
lieve will be FASTENED dAe to the
recently posted announcement OF an
sncrease In Pennsylvania oils. The
situation has assumed puzzling at
titudc among, the members of the
local fraternity, In that absolute
confidence OF the expected rise can
not be assured due TO the Standing
Of the production and consumption
figures However. the oil men point
out that Immediately prior to the
Pennsylvania Jump. the eastern pro-
duCcrs were holding out for higher
prices while the eastern refiners
were complaining OF the cnCroaCh-
mcnts Of Mexican imports and of
the Mid-COntlnent oil which they
stated was being brought to the
eastern markets cheaper than was
the output OF their own plants. IL
Is believed here that with the east
ern crude still higher resultant OF
the late rise, a better market Tor
Mid-Continent oil should be had
which will lessen the vast amount
now held in storage here and in
Crcas the demand.
Operations in the fields Of south

although not OF sensational nature,
nevertheless havc assumed most
interesting aspect. with many tests
nearing depths which will soon de-
termine limits or extensions to
proven areas or open new fields.
Several new wildcat locations on
heretofore INFESTED territory have
been announced. while blocks of
acreage for more are In process OF
operation, Good showings in sew
cral of the more important tests
have stimulated trading activity and
have caused the arrival OF outside
interests for exploration OF the areas
