BALL SAYS GERMANY
NEEDS SUPPLY OF OIL

Unless Germany manages to gain
a seaborne oil supply within the
next five or six months, she will be
unable to attempt another blitz-
krieg. This is the opinion of Max
w. Ball, American petroleum en-
gineer who recently spoke before
Alberta biologists at Calgary
If Germany could win access to
the sea. she might be able to get
oil from Venezuela and the Dutch
East Indies" Mr. Ball said With
out such access, she can't produce
enough oil to keep going, and with
in a comparatively few months she
will be short. Even then, she
ISN'T finished because desperate
country can fight a defensive en-
gagement. But the blitzkrieg stage
will be ended.

OIL CONTROL IS
WITHIN POWERS OF
Chief EXECUTIVE

TULSA-The oil industry was
called upon to. guard itself and
those it represents from conduct
that might afford a pretext for
Federal control under existing exc
cutive powers, by Russell B. Brown
of Washington, Counsel for indie
pendent Petroleum Association, in
a speech before the Oklahoma Bar
Association here
Even a cursory review OF laws
which have been taken off the shell
and put to work actively in the
last decade will suggest the steady
accumulation of executive authority.
These grants "in case of emergency
declared by the Chief Executive"
include power to take possession of
all pipelines and transportation
means, control credits, suspend
trading in registered securities, take
over facilities of manufacturers of
war explosives and munitions, in
GLIDING toluene, may withhold pat
/ ents for improved methods Of ex-
Iploration for oil and other methods
used in the industry, may modify
wage-hour laws, requisition tank
ers under U. S. registery. take over
communications systems, etc.
"All threaten to involve the pet
roleum industry in series of con-
flicts whose issue none may know
today" Brown concluded. This
situation must be faced to re-
cognize the situation is not to sur
render to it but rather to be pre-
pared to meet it,

yardstick to guide him. He cannot use
a California yardstick in Montana. That
is the point where he requires the SER
vices of a responsible organization to
give him complete, dependable facts.
A CORRECT HISTORY OF PRODUC-
TION is an essential factor.
The success that our members have
had may be largely attributed to the fact
that HE WHO BUYS A ROYALTY
THROUGH US MAY REST ASSURED
THAT IN NO CASE WILL HE PAY
TOO HIGH A PRICE: that is price
that normal production will not pay
out several times over. If we cannot
get a royalty at a price on which
large profit is possible, we do not buy
that royalty We buy some other roy
atty at a price that offers possibly
profit of from 500 to 1 900 per cent
else we buy none at all. We occasionally
miss a good one in this manner but in
is years of trial, we find this policy pays.
During the past week we have been
engaged in preparing a publication on
the West Kelvin area 1t is complete
summary Of the recent developments
which have resulted in the Leasing of
some $4,000 acres-the greatest leasing
activity since the early days of Cut
Bank field.
Everyone is convinced that there is
MORE high gravity oil on the west slope
nf the Kelvin field. Hole Brothers think
it is on the southwest end of the
Aloe nose"
High Gravity Production company,
headed by Charles. Wrighter. head OF the
successful Rimrock OIL company, believes
that the Rimrock pool continues on
northwest and his well now drilling
will shortly tell the story. There is no
question that there is more high grav-
ity oil in the area. 1t is a question of
finding the local thigh" in which the
oil is trapped, because this is the one
spot in Montana where there is a de-
pendable water table. Since oil floats on
water ii is safe to assume that oil
will be found wherever there is
structure or trap.
Another line of reasoning led to the
leasing of a IA ,000-acre block from the
southwest edge of the Rimrock pool south
and east across a distance of 16 miles.
That lease block was taken by Santa

NEW REPORT ON WEST kelvin

Rita Oil & Gas company of Cut Bank.
This lease block is so large that 1t Is
almost certain that somewhere in the
district will be found a pool Of oil. Just
where, only the drill can tell.
Montana-Dakota Utilities company has
taken up a block of leases adjacent to
the Santa Rita block, working on the
theory that gas and Oil may be expect
ed little higher on structure.
Hole Brothers of Shelby and Cut Bank
have taken another block, down struc-
ture from the Santa Rita leases, and are
now drilling well. They are not tar
from a well which had both oil and
gas That well is today retained as a
commercial gas well although 1t stood
with bottom hole water on the forma-
tion for many years. There is more oil
and more gas where that showing in the
MedeIia well originated. Whether the
Hole Brothers we'll will chit the nerve"
only the drill can tell.
The theory of Hole Brothers as to the
probable location of some more oil IS
supported by Glacier Production COM
pany. which has the largest lease hold
ings of any Montana oil and gas pro-
Queer Glacier Production company has
thousands of acres under lease around
the MedeHa well and west of it, con-
tinuing on westward into the main Cut
Bank field.
AS these facts are discussed in de-
tail together with complete discussion OF
the drilling situation and like data, In
the report we are issuing this week
This report will serve as a handbook
that will guide some investors to large
nrofits in the years to come. They Will
have the facts before them whenever
nooI or possibly several pools are de-
veloped in the West Kelvin area.
There is no more valuable asset in
the oil industry than TIMELY INFoH-
NATION.
That is the asset that is afforded
members of this organization.

the West Kelvin report. After the report
is received and read, we will get many
letters containing comments and sugges-
tions-doubtless some arguments-lron

,ments we will develop some new ideas

BAKER IS GETTING
READY FOR BOON

Says the Fallon County Times:
Beyond a doubt, prospects OF oil
and gas development in this area
for 1871 are becoming surer and
nearer every day. This is indicated
by the heavy leasing of lands by
responsible parties from mid-east-
ern oil centers. The county records
show many transactions and the
hotel registers show prominent Wis
itors in the community.
One pioneer business man of
this town said today In one year
from now you won't know your
town of Baker, Experienced as we
are in devaluating rumors, we are
still more confident of bigger devel-
opment this year than ever before.
Public records speak louder and
stronger than rumors and the Fail
Ion county records show a ire
mendous increase of abstract work
and leasing daily in recent months.

IF l only knew how to go about it.
| would put some money in OIL says
the investor, who sees in the oil industry
a stabilized investment, unlike the times
of Is years or more ago when the pub
lie called it "the oil game" 1t is now
the oil industry" full OF greater rO-
nance than in the so-called romantic
days Of risk and waste Haste, uncer-
tainties. and mistakes may have had a
sort of superficial glamour for some, at
tracing one type of investor but not the
conservative investor who wants not
only a chance to make a fortune from
a relatively small investment but who
wants degree of certainty that he will
not lose his principal.
The "fly-by-nights" are pretty well
ironed out of the oil business. The in
efficiencies of olden times are fatal to
anyone who tries to remain in the oil
business today. The same thing applies
to royalty investments. A man who
buys any royalty today invests more
than his money He invests some OF
his brain power.
The man who possesses dollar to in
vest possesses that dollar because he
KNOWS his business He must know
that no man makes wealth by the work
of his own hands alone 1t is neces-
sary that he shall take the earnings OF
his hands and put the earnings to work.
His dollars will make more money than
he can make but only in the event that
they are INTELLIG ENTLY put to work.
No matter what avenue of investment
one may choose, he must know some
thing Of the business into which he
launches his investment dollar. The oil
business is one in which the sluggard oc-
casionally makes money: investing a
few dollars in lucky venture that pays
a hundred or a thousand fold. But that
is the exception rather than the rule.
We tell the prospective investor that
If he plans to buy only ONE royalty, he
had better not invest at all The LAW
OF AVERAGES has given the Kelvin
Sunburst royalty investor $47.63 per
cent per developed acre.
Many farms have produced more than
that Many farms have produced less than
that: thus the average of S47.63. So 1t
follows that success in royalties comes
from taking full advantage of the law
of averages. This is done by buying not
one but SEVERAL royalties.
The one important factor is the
PRICE. The man who would make a
big winning MUST provide the ratio
Of his profit by the price he pays. AS
an example, the man who has paid an
average Of $47.63 per cent per acre for
his Kelvin rC 1alties, even tho they all be
