In July Of 1888. MIR Basic received
the thrill Of a lifetime when he was
contracted to play seasonal date
in the Famous Door on Fifty-second

TO his musical career, and also paved
a way for more Negro bands on
Broadway. Since that time MIR

NEW YORK-1H. F. Sinclair
at annual meeting of Consolidated
Oil Corp. stockholders here yester-
day, said:
Either one of two things must
happen. The price of finished pro-
ducts must go up or the price of
the raw material must go down.
do not believe that this industry
can continue to buy its raw mater
ial and sell finished products at
a loss. / am in hopes of and we in
this company are working for a
level for finished commodities that
will make it unnecessary to srednce
the price Of crude. But I mast say
that if we cannot find a way to in
crease the price or realize a very
small additional margin for finish
ed commodities, there must be a
cut in the price of crude. l want
to go on record as saying that
Sinclair went on to say that he
would not welcome a reduced price
for crude
