BALTIC SHALE
RICHER, CRUDE
OIL CONTENTS

SANTA MARIA, Cal. July 20
Tests of Esthonian oil shale, com
pleted at the plant OF the N-T-U
company near here, have proved that
oil bearing rock from the Baltic
region is nearly twice as rich in
crude oil content and possible re-
coyery as American shale.
The tests have called attention to
the fact that TOR the first time in the
history of the oil industry crude oil
is being extracted from shale at a
cost that enables it to compete com.
mercially with oil from wells.
The N-T-U plant is near deposits
of oil bearing rock which Guy c.
Riddell eastern manager of the com.
pany. describes as virtually unlimit

so placed as to permit mining by
