But, first let us share together what
market we have. AS the market
is enlarged we can share that also.
PROBATION acts much the same as
a governor ON a motor,-when we
go too fast it slows us down, when
we go too slow it speeds us up.
By the same token, when we pro-
duce too much oil, our allowables
are cut, when we have a shortage
our allowables are increased. I'm
sold SURPRISES of any commodity
soon wreck any industry unless
proper marketing conditions are
brought into play.
Uniform proratiOn directed by a
producers conservation board can
and will remedy our immediate
problem. Enlarged markets can be
worked for, better freight rates
can be sought, and motorists can be
educated into using more of our
own gasoline. But, first of all, let
us all share in this present market,
our combined efforts will work for
the combined good of all producers.
Truly, we now must chang together
or we will hang separately"
Yours very truly,

chasers of that crude. No one in
dividual or group has the exclusive
right to these markets and we all
produce oil of a more or less uni
form quality. And / am of the
opinion that should We all try and
enter any refining and marketing
scheme disaster would come for all.
Like the forgotten man, the
"FIAVES" tell us to buckle our
belts a little tighter and prepare
to live on shorter rations, that we
could live on shorter rations; how
ever, we are not assured of even
shorter rations, nothing but prom
ises of better days to come. The
HAYES" tell US there is a market
for all this crude right here in
Montana, and further that just so
long as there is gasoline imported
into this State they do not propose
to share what market there is. We
are the untouchables; to permit
us to sit at the common table will
bring evil days unto their house and
stagnation will come upon us. Surely
we will work just as hard to en-
large future markets under pro-
IdllOn DIS We WOuAu pACoCub
conditions. First let US put our
house in order, then wage our
battle for increased markets. Under
this plan we have a common and a
uniform front. We are the trus-
tees of a great Montana natural re-
source. AS such we cannot permit
either physical or economic waste.
The common table at which we all
eat stands in danger of being de-
stroyed so that none may eat.
AS stated previously, We have
had proration for several years.
Even when we had the Canadian
market we were prorated. Surely
it is obvious that there has been
an abundance if not a surplus of
oil and that this quantity of sur
plus oil has increased greatly
through loss of Northern markets.
We can and will enlarge our local
Montana markets. However, no

WAGES IN PETROLEUM
INDUSTRY ARE AT ALL
TIME RECORD HIGH

Wages in the petroleum refining
industry stood IN July at $3.50 per
hour, an all-time record high, and
so per cent above the boom year Of
1929. This compares with an av-
erage hourly wage of 657c for all
other manufacturing industries in
the United States.
Hours of labor in the petroleum
industry have been reduced. The
average refinery worker now puts
in only 1915 hours a week, or nearly
five hours less than the average
for workers in other manufacturing
industries. Practical effects in
clude the spreading out of employ
ment and increasing the number of
workers in the industry by IL per
cent.

SUDDEN STOP OF
WORK IS CAUSE
OF SPECULATION

JARBIDGE- Considerable specu-
lation was rife in Jarbidge last
Saturday night following an IN
expected shutdown of operations by
the Elkoro Mines Exploration Com
pany which laid off practically its
entire mining crew and announc-
ing operations as soon as the ore
bins are empty.
1t was stated that the company
would proceed in the near future
with sinking of the new shaft in
which operations have been direc-
ted to an estimated depth of be-
tween 700 and 1000 feet.
It was stated that the company
laid off As men, leaving only a
small crew on the job.
No reason for the sudden change
in mining operation plans has
been given.
Considerable mining activity has
been taking place in Jarbidge and
vicinity during the summer and
the outlook for new life in the
camp is said to be good.

in near Shafter, Calf. the second
deepest producing oil well in the
world which, by extending the San
Joaquin valley producing area, may
result in the largest oil field In
America, with the possible excep-
ton of the east Texas region.
The well is 1902 feet deep and
initial production was at the rate
of 2,400 barrels per day Of 80

A dustless type of carbon black,
made from petroleum sources, is
an essential ingredient of modern
rubber tires. The product is made
largely by burning waste petroleum
gases, and its puts into tires the
duality of long mileage. Carbon
black finds industrial uses also in
Che manufacture of printing ink,

deny that this cannot be done quick
ly enough to save those now without
a market. Even when we have
gained the Montana market there
will still be a surplus. Our present
refineries have their own leases and
crude supplies. Without proration
and as they develop the Montana
market to a greater volume they
VIII also develop more of their OWN
crude production. Where does this
leave the small operator? To my
way of thinking, 1t leaves him just
where he is today, only slightly
worse. Several years will have
elapsed and he will still be patiently
waiting Perhaps by that time he
will realize that uniform proation
is his only salvation. All this means
prOration eventually, why not now?
We are told to organize into
group, build our own refinery and
thus solve our market problem.
This can be answered in two ways.
Firstly, we are not familiar with
the refining and marketing phases
of the oil business. Basicly we are
producers and prefer to remain as
such. Mistakes are costly and un-
limited resources must be back of
refining industries to assure their
success. The small operators do
not have the finances to risk such
an undertaking. Secondly, we have
at present four good refineries serv-
ing us. All Of these could be en-
larged to meet any new markets
that are developed, so why build
more? Better four refineries doing
well and running at capacity than
seven or eight merely existing or
even on the verge of going into
bankruptcy.
/ doubt If anyone seriously denies
that uniform proration is inevitable
They may wish to delay its coming
but they well know 1t must come
sooner or later Economists every
where preach the wisdom of keep
ing production in line with market
requiem General motors
would very much like to sell all
the motor cars in the country. Mr..
Ford would like to do likewise, |
hut they both know they can't
monopolize the market, so they
manufacture only as many cars as
they can profitably sell
AS oil operators, we want to sell
Montana as much of her oil require
ments as possible, in fact, we would |
all like to see nothing but Montana |
products in our own filling stations |
and in those states Immediately east |
ad west of us where there are no |
producing fields. However, all we |,
can hope for is the market we can |
profitably take care Of. It is in
deed unfortunate that our oil fields |
are not located in the center of the
state, since If they were, we would |
be in much better position to deal
with local importers of gasoline
and to capture this market for our
selves at a profit to ourselves.
Since the oil fields cannot be NOV
ed, we must make the best of what |
we have.
AS an oil industry we have size
twelve foot but we are trying to
cram it into a size six shoe, and if
we succeed in getting it on we'll
break the shoe and ruin our feet.
Better we share our markets on a
profitable basis than to produce
more oil than W ecan cram into
it at a loss. There is no shortage
of oil, no shortage of refineries, but
there is a definite lack of market
for all producers. Perhaps this
market can be brought more into
