WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Statements
recently made to the federal oil board
by Karl c. Schuyler of Denver re-
garding the practicability Of extract
ing oil from shale rock have been
attacked vigorously by L. v. Nicho-
las, president of the National PETROL
cum Marketers association, of Chi
cago. Nicholas is understood to have
te1egraphed oil board officials that
Schuyler's cost figures for producing
oil from shale are ridiculous.
In paper presented at recent
board hearings, Schuyler estimated
that such recovery could be made by
mining processes at about one dollar
barrel. The oil board is preparing
to print and distribute the minutes
of these hearings and Nicholas pro-
tested the Schuyler paper should not
be sent out in this manner unless the
board disclaimed any responsibility
for the statements made. He added
that had any one present at the
hearings believed Schuyler's views
would be taken seriously, they would
have been attacked on the spot.
Board officials declined tonight to
say anything about the matter ex-
cept to explain they could i'm no way
be responsible for the differing opin-
ion of oil men.
