TULSA, Okla, July 23-Develop-
ment of supply has given way to de-
velopment Of markets as the problem
of the natural gas industry. Not many
years ago the question was where to
get the gas. Today it Is where TO sell
the available gas.
The every widening search for oil has
brought prolific new gas producing
areas. Large gas companies have fol-
lowed the trail of the wildcatter and
purchased his discoveries almost as
rapidly as they were made.
Pipe Lines Extended.
With the quest for new markets
bringing a steadily growing network OF
gas pipe lines, q network that may be
the nucleus of Nationwide distribut-
ing system, the question of adequacy OF
the supply naturally has arisen. 1t Is
generally accepted as fact that the
proven fields can care for many times
the present needs, but in the face OF
the probable withdrawal of increasingly
large volumes of gas are the reserves
sufficient to warrant the building of
expensive pipe lines?
Economists of the industry answer
that question by pointing to the recon-
mendations of leading gas engineers for
more and better transmission lines.
And operators, having furnished large
sums of money for new projects, APP
parently are satisfied the reserves are
adequate.
Engineers who have recommended
the expenditure Of $4,000 900 to $780,
600 900 for pipe line projects are agreed
that the present sources of supply in
this country will last for minimum OF

NEW YORK, July 23.-Registrations
of buyers in the New York market
during the past week totaled 1853, aF
against GAS in the preceding week and
1908 in the corresponding week last
year. the New York Times lists show.
Buyers who registered yesterday totaled
366. as compared with 344 week ago.
Expansion Of the use, of paper boxes
for the packing of food products during
the first six months of this year ac-
counted for most of the per cent in
crease in business which the Paper
Board Industries Association reported
at the opening of their convention here.
Officials expressed the belief that sales
during the balance of the year would
show an even greater gain.
. De Soto Motor Corporation, division
of the Chrysler Corporation, added 674
new dealers to its organization during
the FIRST half Of this year.
Two 260-ton, motor generator type
electric locomotives for the Great
Northern Railway are en- route to
Wenatchee, Wash, and two more are
nearly ready for shipment from the
Erie, Pa, plant of the General Elec-
trio Co. The four locomotives will
cost approximately 100000.

two years and likely for a much longer
period That conclusion does not take
into consideration hitherto untapped
supplies.
Production in. the Texas Panhandle,
major gas yielding area, Is estimated
by engineers to be good for about 40
years. Estimates of this fields recov-
cradle reserve range from 5000. 000. 600
to 10000, 100000 cubic feet. The field
is being drawn upon at present for
about 300,000,000 cubic feet daily. The
Monroe field of Louisiana, largest dry
gas area, is given a reserve of about
2,40o, 100000 cubic feet. The life of
the Monroe district and the nearby
Richland area is placed at between Is
and 20 years, The present combined
withdrawal from the two fields Is more
than 60o,000,000 cubic feet daily.
Other Producing Fields.
Other important gas producing areas
of the Southwest are Central Okla
homa, including the Greater Seminole
and Oklahoma City fields: Southern
Oklahoma, including the Cement and
Chickasha fields; North Central Texas;
South Texas, including the White Point
and Refugio fields, and Eastern Kansas.
In the Southwestern part of the Sum
flower State is being developed an inn
portant dry gas field.
Territory In East Central Oklahoma
and Western Arkansas is regarded as
an important undeYeloped area, known
geological structures in this region not
having been drilled. Western Kansas,
Western Oklahoma and the Oklahoma
Panhandle are considered potential
stores. Southeastern Colorado and
California fields are looked to for fur
ther supplies

LUMBER TARIFF is HELD
NO CAUSE FOR PRICE GAIN
BY the Associated Press.


Wilson Compton, secretary of the Ma
tional Lumber Manufacturers Associa-
ton, expresses the opinion that the
duty of 81 thousand feet on rough
softwood lumber will likely have no eff
feet on the cost to consumers In the
United States. but may increase some
what the consumption of lumber manu-
featured here as distinguished from the
imported product.
This statement was evoked by a re-
cent speech of Representative Garfield
OF Indiana to the effect that the duty
would add $50,000,000 to the cost of
lumber annually consumed In the United
States.
Mr.. Compton described this assertion
as fantastic, gross exaggeration and
entirely unwarranted by the facts"
1T has been generally overlooked in
discussions of the tariff act" he said,
that the lumber sections, as enacted,
leave on the free list all softWood lum-
Der imported from Canada, which is
rough or not further manufactured than
dressed on one side. According to the
import statistics this means that about
so per cent of the Softwood lumber inn
ported from Canada, the source of over
30 per cent of our lumber imports, will
continue 10 come in free of duty. Aver
age annual hnportations from Canada
have been about 1900 000, 600 feet, in
Guiding hardwoods. OF this therefore,
less than 10000 900 feet will be duti-
able. As the domestic production of
softwood lumber Of all kinds Is ordinar-
lily about $4,000, 100000 feet. and is
disposed OF in market for which are
competing thousands OF American man.
ufacturers themselves capable readily OF
producing annually billions of feet more
OF lumber than the entire consumption
requirements In the United Stetes, 1t
is obvious that the Canadian manufac-
tiIrers or distributors themselves will
absorb generally the duty %

FOREIGN BRANCHES
AID AMERICAN TRADE
Nations Business Discusses Prac.
tice Of Establishing Plants
in Foreign Lands.
By the Associated Press.

6y tnc ASSOClhteu ETcSS.
The economic factors underlying thu
growing practice of establishing branch
plants In foreign countries are discussed
In the current issue Of Nations Busi.
ness.
Some Americans, the article suggests
see In this comparatively new foreign
trade development a danger signal
They feel that American capital is util.
i5ing cheap foreign labor to gain com.
petftive advantages In the United States
Others see in this development higk
compliment to the business sagacity o.
the American executive.
There are a number of real sound
practical and compelling reasons why
the branch plant Is necessary to protect
and expand American internationa
trade. Those same reasons, of course
would apply to the establishment of
French plant In the United States or .
German plant In Argentina or British
plant in Spain.
i Probably foremost among these rea.
sons. the article says, is the desire t.
hurdle foreign tariff wall which Il
either prohibitive or excessively restrict.
cdr The question of preferential tarif
treatment In the British Empire Is offer
a strong reason for establishing branch
plant IN Canada. If tariff or q Gus.
toms federation Is eventually set VI
among a group of European nations
and the United States is not included
American interest in the establishment
of branch plants in Europe would re-.
ceive mighty impetus.
Other items cited by the article u
support of the foreign branch plant
idea are transportation cost, campaigns
In favor Of merchandise made In the
home country" patent rights, skilled
labor supply and 50 forth.
