Dixon Puts Blame
On Texas for Ruin of
Thousands of Oil Men

A scathing indictment Of Texas
for their failure to
cooperate with other States in
oil production was Is
sued today by acting Secretary OF
the Interior Dixon.
He said:
"The crude oil from this pool
is being shipped at 10 to 20
cents q barrel. 1t has thus
dragged the whole oil industry
down, running thousands Of
Independent producers, driving
them bankrupt into the hands
Of the great companies, Great
ing great unemployment and
hardShipS in Kansas, Montana.
Wyoming, California, and Okla
hOma.
Equally, it represents the
most heartbreaking waste OF
national resources of a genera
ton. 1t is driving oil that should
be saved for gasoline into use
as a substitute for coal. 1t has
created unemployment not
alone in the oil industry but
among coal miners. and caused
a score of other ills.
"And it does Texas as much
harm as everybody else. No one
in the country can control
Texas production but Texas. The
selfish and irresponsible inter
ests operating the east Texas
pool have demonstrated their
ability to prevent control by the
State and are apparently de-
termined on wholesale ruin"

as those in strangers May kiss"
and Divorce" But the dramatic
element is stronger, and it presents
an astounding new insight into the
stars amazing versatility.
Clever Direction

work is done by James Gleason and
