FLOW Of ILLEGAL
OIL IS CURTA|LED
East Texas Officials Believe
Volume Cut as Much
as TW0-Thirds.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
AUSTIN, Tex, May 5.-A silver
cloud appeared on the hot oil horizon
in the East Texas field the last week
with officials estimating that produc-
tion of illegal crude had decreased as
much as two-thirdS.
r. D. Parker, chief of proration en-
forcement for the State Railroad Com
mission, which handles oil matters IN
Texas, attributed the change to more
stringent methods that body has used
They include close scrutiny of refinery
operations and checking of their
sources of oil.
Parker, designated by the commits
sion to lead the new drive against
hot oil operators. reported that the
average production of the illegal oil
had been reduced from about $500
barrels to approximately $4,000 barrels
daily within the last three weeks
He said the new methods of the
regulatory body had had "discour-
aging effect on violators of pro-
ration laws. The nucleus of the group
of violators is intact, but the tenacious
assault on the hot oil forces has
caused them to weaken, in Parker
opinion.
A more optimistic attitude on the
part of the operators has followed the
commissions drive, Parker reported.
He said several of the refineries that
were closed by injunction as one of
the first steps in the drive were act
ing to assure themselves of a supply
OF legal oil.

covery peak reached in December

ployed. AS compared with March

Special Dispatch to The Star
BOSTON, May 5.-A breakdown of
the poll of financial editors conduct
ed by the United Business Service re-
veals a pronounced difference OF opin-
ion on economic questions in various
sections of the country. The returns
from the Southern States reveal views
particularly contrary to those of the
rest of the country. The majority of
Southern financial writer's feel that
Government measures are the chief
cause of the recovery to date, where
as no other section holds this opinion.
Returns from the South also show
that this area is the most optimistic
on the prospects for security prices.
30 per cent of the replies from the
South forecast that the 1888 high
points of stock prices will be sub
stantially exceeded this year. AL
though other sections of the United
States are of the opinion that the vol
ume of stock transactions will be Sc
riously curtailed after market control
legislation is passed. 81 per cent of
the Southern financial editors do not
anticipate curtailment

lack of interest in wool on the part
of many buyers during the last week,
quotations in the Boston market were
mostly steady to firm. Some grades

tory and Texas woods were held quite
firmly, at unchanged quotations, ex-
