Oil Demand 10

Sees Requirements at
~ Billion Barrels
Despite Export Dip

NEW YORK. May 3.-The sup
ply of new oil in 1910 was in ex-
cess Of requirements despite the
fact that consumption reached a
new record high last year. ac-
cording to the Alexander Hamil-
ton Institute. This excessive sup
ply had a depressing influence on
prices which showed a downward
trend for the third consecutive
year. The annual index Of petro-
leum prices, on the basis of 1929
as 100, declined to 70.1 In 1910
from 1872 in 1889 and from $40 in
1887. when prices were at the
highest level reached in the re-
covery from the depression. Petro-
leum prices in 1910 were at the
lowest level since 1888.
The decline In petroleum prices
from 1889 to 1910 was not suffi-
Gent. however. to Offset the In
crease in output. Consequently
the index of the value of petrole.
UNI output. on the basis of 1929
as 100, rose from 91.9 in 1899 to
81 in 1910.

prospective increase in the de-
mand will have a tendency to keep
the petroleum market firm. In
fact. there have already been some
instances where petroleum prices
have been advanced. II these ad-
vances can be maintained the
value OF petroleum output in 1941
will be higher than in 1910.
The maintenance of a higher
level of petroleum prices in 1871
than in 1910. however, will depend
on the proper control of produc-
ton. The petroleum industry is in
a position to produce more oil this
year than is needed and IL ex-

Exceed I9 Billions

The American Petroleum Insti-
tute has estimated that crude
petroleum resources in the United
States at the beginning of 1941
amounted to 19,025. 900 900 barrels.
This estimate was 542, OOO, 900 bar
rels larger than the estimate made
year ago. despite the fact that
1852, 100000 barrels were with
drawn from the ground in 1910.
The estimate of larger resources
at the beginning of this year was
made possible by new discoveries
during 1910 which more than off,
set the withdrawal of a record
amount of oil last year.
Although oil resources estimated
at the present time are sufficient
TO meet requirements at the pres
ent rate of consumption for only
Ia years, the prospect is that new
discoveries will be made which
will provide the United States
with petroleum. for a much longer
time. Under any circumstances.
there Is no possibility of a short
age OF petroleum for many years.
The Bureau of Mines recently an
nounced that experiments to de-
velop gasoline and OF, from coal
had been successful. There are
sufficient coal resources in the
United States to provide the ma
ton with an oil supply for about
5000 years at the present rate of
consumption.
