gasoline in California. 1T is not at all inn
possible that any excess crude could find
its way to the Orient-h there WERE
any excess crude. But there wasn't
and isn't.
Montana refiners might today sell
vast quantities of gasoline, the only
question being whether they could
supply enough to fill the require
ment of Oriental buyers.
There is a "jumpy' feeling in busi-
ness, owing th the war scare but those
of us who are old enough TO remember
the market slump just ahead of the
world war and the great prosperity and
unprecedented market advance during the
war, followed by a slump AFTER the
war, realize that days of prosperity come
with war time.
We were interested in the comment
of the Economics Statistics Bulletin of
September 4, 1887, which discussed busi-
ness conditions in general and concluded:
OUTLOOK: Buiness activity will rise
to a new aII-time peak within the next
six to nine months.
Says the Bulletin: ''That purchasing
power rs at an all-t1me h1gn is not IN
itself impOrtant4 However, when 1t is
considered in relating to current demand,
it becomes extremely significant. This
relationship indicates that demand win
viii rise sharply in the next few mOnhs.
Furthermore, since the supply 71ernand
position is closely balanced and inven-
tories are not excessive, production can
be expected to rise materially"
Incidentally, statistics show that the
index OF purchasing power rose to a
new high for the recovery period In
July and is only two points below the
all-time high reached in the 1929 peak
Once the Canadian situation is under
control, there can be little to disrupt
the local situation THE laws Of ecOno-
mics viii care for the situation. There
is nothing in the national situation TO
make the local position alarming. Price
increases and decreases in Montana usu-
ally come from Tulsa. When Midcontt-
nent prices go up, Montana prices go up.

PROSPERITY AHEAD

Montana oil operators breathed more
easily this week as they learned that a
definite plan of prOrntion had been a.
dopted in Turner Valley on field, re-
ducing the menace OF Over-pr0ducfion
in that remarkable pool, which might
bring price cuts that would reflect back
into Montana.
The situation i'm the oil industry
does not look like any cuts are coming
in the price of oil If anything, an i'm
crease in the price of oil. 1t would be
very unfortunate If a small local situa-
alton should get so far out of Hand as to
cause price cuts In the face of the great
est world demand for gasoline that his
tory has known.
This week finds THE great fleets of the
world in motion, ON a war basis, for
the first time since the world war.
These fleets are burning up more fuel
oil and more gasoline than ever was
consumed I'm war time. With THE fleets
of nine power steaming into THE Medi-
terTanean we see the greatst naval move
ment in all history.
Thousands and perhaps hundreds of
thousands of airplanes are today i'm the
air or warming up on the ramps Of
military airpOrts throughout the world.
They re burning up gasoline i'm unpre-
oedented volume. Military trucks, tanks,
and Other motorized equipment I'm all
European countries are in motion, ready
for instant use.
The stock maket always goes into a
nose dive at rumOrs of war whereas in
actuality, the market goes up. War
brings unprecedented prosperity, always.
Even in impoverished nations, war means
employment for men, high wages and
high volume Of business. For America
European war is certain to mean higher
prices for wheat and other foodstuffs; for
metals of all kinds and in largest de-
gree, for crude oil and petroleum pro-
ducts
just a suggestion of the situation is
given by tile fact that a refinery I'm the
Rocky Mountain region has entered into
a 1000, ,OO0-barrel contract with Italian
maketers. 1t is a refinery I'm Eddy
County, New Mexico and the refined
products are going TO Trieste, Italy.
We are informed that Japanese repre-
sentatives until recently have been vatnly
trying to contract for large amounts OF

SHOE SHINE BOY
HAS DOODLE BUG

Billings has a doodle bug man
who has been setting the town agog
by the accuracy of his prognostica-
tions on various wells drilled.
Professionally, he runs a shoe shine
parlor opposite the Northern hotel
and his name is Alevick. He has a
weight on the end of a spring,
which he holds over the casing OF a
well. If ip is to he an oil we'll,
the weight starts Ibobbing up and
down, it's violence telling the oper-
ator how much oil will be produc-
ed. If it is a dry hole, in the es-
timation OF the bug, it remains
quiet. 1t has been used on two wells
now drilling on Laurel structure
and If it can be relied upon, they
are both going to be great gushers,
according to local oil men.
