The fact is. that in the oil bust
ness, as in many other American
business, profits are only the last
few pennies of every dollar taken
in.
And most of these final few cents
are distributed to stockholders.
These pennies, too, are money in
action.
The petroleum industry takes oil
out of the ground. spends money
on 1t, and turns II into four billions
a year of moving money-money
moving for the benefit OF hundreds
of businesses and millions Of people.
To begin with, the industry buys
more than one billion dollars worth
of equipment, supplies and services
every year.
In addition, It pays out another
billion and a half in wages and
salaries to employees who, in turn
spend most Of this for things they
want-shoes, movies. food. washing

the first I6 hours of produc-
ton from the lower Cut Bank

in the Ellis Oil rose 1000
feet and it swabbed 200 bar
rels in 16 hours. 1t will set
tie to 100 barrels or better on

two other producers at widely
spaced points in the field this
week. Texaco-State M455 No. 5,
C NEA NEA 16-32-5W, near the
south Cut Bank discovery well, Is
somewhat disappointing. 1t had no
lower Cut Bank sand, which is or
dinarily the best producing hori-
Eon. 1t had a showing in the upper
part of the sand, from 2971 TO
2973 from which oil rose 400 feet.
1t swabbed 5 barrels in the first
"a hours. Hole bottoms at 300S
feet, with Ellis at 1885 feet. 1t was
shot with three small sQuibs of nj
tro glycerin and the pipe was dam
aged, so the result of the shots Is
not known.
Observers pointed out that
had the discovery well been
spotted $50 yards east the de-
veIopment of South Cut Bank
might have been delayed for
many years, since the No. 8
well would have served to dis
courage development of this

OF the lower Cut Bank sand
is not unusual throughout the
