PRICE GUT HITS
TRADE, IS CLAIM

According to the current
Analyst published by the Brook
mire Economic Service, Inc, re-
cent price cuts in crude oil prices,
forecast a poor showing for the
industry during the balance Of
this year. The Analyst goes on
to say:
$50 long as drilling con-
tinues at q high rate and new
potential production comes in
each month at the rate Of 4
100000 barrels per day, we
see little hope Of improvement
in prices.
Results of operations for
the oil companies which make
quarterly reports reflect ad-
verse conditions within the in
dustry during the third quarter.
Net profits declined more than
so per cent, as compared, with
the same quarter of 1929. Since
recent price cuts were not yet
in effect during the third
quarter, even less favorable
ShOwingS can be anticipated
for the current quarter. We
believe it will take many
months to cure the ills Of the
oil industry"
