A. J. Hazlett, 20 dean Of oil
trade publishers in the West, died
Tuesday. August 10, at his home I'm
Casper
A lifetime OF experience in the oil
industry gave Mr.. Hazlett a person
al acquaintance with the leaders OF
the industry up to and including
the Rockefellers. Raised in Ohio in
the days OF the famous ''flambeau"
Mr.. Hazlett carried Ia his mind q
vivid history of the oil industry.
Starting as a reporter he publish
ed newspapers and trade publica-
tons in Ohio. Oklahoma and Texas.
With the development of the wy
oming oil fields, Mr. Hazlett came
to Casper to take over the Inland
Oil Index, then a struggling trade
publication. He made the Index the
official spokesman of the Wyoming
and Colorado oil industry and ex-
tended his news coverage to the
entire Northwest including Mining
as well as oil. Last rites we're held

new CONTROL
BILL likely
OF PASSAGE

Copies of the new OH control bin
which has the approval of the house
interstate commerce commission,
have been received In Great Falls
by officers, of the Independent Pet
kroleum Association.
The bill, worked out by Repre-
sentative Cole and a special oil
subcommittee, Is said to have presi-
dental approval and while modified
from the terms Of the Ickes con-
troll bill. II rs said to be a step in
the right direction.
The bin gives congressional ap-
prevail to an oil and gas conserve
ton compact worked out by sew
eral states in February. 1t also
sanctions voluntary agreements
among members of the industry TO
prevent vast, wipe out unfair trade
practices and permit orderly de-
velopment Of oil pools and an in-
dependent federal petroleum ad-
ministrative board OF five members
to help establish the voluntary pact.
This board will make determine
tons OF national oil production re-
quired to meet domestic demands
and Of the amounts OF OIL states
should each produce. It also backs
up the Connolly law forbidding ship
ment In interstate commerce of
petroluem products in violation Of
state laws.
According to Russell Brown OF
the 4 P. A., the only weak spot In
bhe bill Is it's failure to designate 4
the allowable imports. Leaving this
matter to the board will raise a
question as to its constitutionality,
whereas congress might definitely
restrict imports to Az OF the
total allowable domestic production.
1t provides, mo such agreement
shall be approved unless II provides
Tor the payment Of adequate mini
mum wages to employees and for
NE maintbinence of fair maxi
mum hours Of labor for employees,
which makes no provisions for strip
per well operations.
Otherwise. the biIl Is said to be
satisfactory to the indus

Ancient Isle
Revealed bu
Finding Sand

Importance Of the reported dis
covery of Cut Bank sand on the
east slope Of the Sweetgrass Arch.
near KiDpen. lays in the fact, ge-
ologists say, that the Arch--an area
OF 5000 square miles north of Great
Falls--has through prehistoric times
been an island when this hemis-
phere has been covered with water.
The Cut Bank sand is not present
on the top Of this island, but, in
stead. Is found on the lower TANKS.
II was first found In the Border
field. Later is was found at Flat
CouIee. in the Sweetgrass Hills, so
miles East OF the Border field. Its
discovery at Cut Bank led to its
recognition, for the first time. as
the most important producing hori-
zon In Northern Montana.
That the sand IN the Kippen well
Is Cut Bank sand is attested by T.
L. Hartman, state oil and gas in
spector, and others who have ex-
amlned It. Samples were furnished J
to Walter Nelson, geologist Of The
Texas company. John Hupp, geolo- I
gist Of Montana Power Gas Co. and I
other experts for Identification.
Whether there Is merely q
tongue" of this sand remaining at
Kippen. rather than the continue
ton Of the same ocean beach re-
Teaied for 20 miles at Cut Bank,
e something to be established by
further drilling. It's extent will
probably determine the true signif-
canoe OF the strike. Although It
.ontalned only q showing OF oil at
he top. the sand was IS feet thick
md therefore might carry prolific
PRODUCTION at some other structural
deviation.
