TO CONSERVE SUPPLY

Special Dispatch TO The star stEs
SAN FRANCISCO, June 27.--Fred G.
Stevenot. director of the California De-
partment of Natural Resources, is mail
ing letter to all oil operators and les
sors in California, calling their atten-
ton to the new gas conservation law.
IF after August 81, 1929, there is any
natural gas being blown into the air
and thus wasted, 1t is the intention and
purpose of the State Immediately to
proceed with all the means provided by
law to prevent such wastage," the letter
states This notice will give the lessons
and operators interested full so days
time within which to make arrange
.ments to meet the requirements of the
new statute"
Since the failure of the cooperative
restriction agreement under the auspices
Of the American Petroleum Institute
the operators have free rein on drilling
until September l. 1t is the fear of F.
D. Bush, State oil and gas supervisor,
that wells may be brought in before
then, and once a flow of gas begins,
such as now exists at the Kettleman
Hills exploration we'll, for example,
there is no way of controlling it. Due
to the unexpected Joker" in the new
gas law, its provisions are not enforce
able until 80 days after signing the act.
