GE0L0GIST
SPOKE ONLY
FOR KIDDER
Statement Concerning Oil Did
Not Apply to Entire State,
Leonard Says

Grand Forks, n. D., Dec. l7.-lR,-
His recent statement that the possi-
bility Of finding oil in kidder county
and the region near Robinson, where
4 prospective oil boom is promised
if oil is ever found there in CONNER
cial quantity not apply to the
entire state Prof. A. G. Leonard,
state geologist, said here today.
Leonard issued his statement fol-
lowing receipt of information that
his original pronouncement in the
kidder county case had operated
against oil prospecting in other parts
OF the state, he said.
The statement follows:
1.-The attention Of the state geolo-
gist has been called to the fact that
the statements made by him regard
ing the improbability of finding oil
in the vicinity of Robinson have been
taken as applying to the entire state.
This is by no means the case and he
wishes to correct this mistaken i'm
preston.
Familiar With Area
"The statements were intended to
apply to the kidder County region
and the adjoining areas to the east
and west. with which the writer was
somewhat familiar and could there
fore speak from knowledge of the
geological conditions.
"While the various oil sands which
are found in Wyoming and Montana
are known to be mostly absent from
North Dakota, as shown by the logs
Of deep wells, still there is always the
possibility that oil may be present
providing the necessary geological
structures occur.
1.-The discovery Of oil in North
Dakota would be splendid thing fol-
the state, and the published state.
ments of the state geologist were not
intended to discourage drilling where
there was any chance of finding OIL
