The Industry's Powerful Weapon

Organized numerical strength commands
greater respect in the world today than ever
before in history That is true in interna-
tiOnaI aSfairs and it is particularly true in
national affairs. Some call it plain politics"
Others say that it is the rule Of the people,
Our politicians are out sIashing right and
left some to make political thunder some
to find new sources of tax revenues and
others to carry out theories Of government
which they hope to impress upon the people
during the hurley hurley of war. War is the
OppOrtune time for organized min0rities. An
organized minority put over prohibition dur
ing the last war. Numerous pressure groups
are at work in this country today and they
will fOist things upon the American people
that would not be possible in peace time,
when people have time to read and think.
No industry, institution or individual is
safe in this country today unless protective
barriers are thrown up. In grave danger is
the Gil industry. There are many, politicians
who have been shooting at the oil industry
for many years, notably a well entrenched
group in the Treasury department Nothing
short of a revolution in this country will
dislOdge them and as long as they are in
office they will continue 10 plot the over
throw of the oil industry. They are crack
pots who have never seen an oil field and
who know nothing about the oil industry
save the romantic stories about COalOiI
Johnny. They have theories which every
practical operator knows will not work
Sound reasoning proves them wrong.
Sound reasoning means nothing in the
world today. 1t takes FORCE to get anything.

of the oil industry. If the oil industry were
today solely in the hands of seven major
operators, with closely held stock, the oil
industry would not have a chance. IL would
be socialized over night and an effort would
be made by crackpOts and poor politicians
to operate it like the pOstOffice. But it hap
pens that there still remains numerical
strength-and there are enough to keep up
the fight and to win, if the oil industry can
get the organized effort of all its members
It is a notable fact that the American Pc
trOIeum Institute-the organization Of the
major cOmpanies-has dropped out Of power
in Washington The Independent Petroleum
association is now carrying on the battle,
far more successfully than the short sighted
majors whose policies in the past have fire.
quentIy pointed to the elimination Of the
numerical strength-the Independents. But
there are enough Independents
scattered through the twenty three prOduc-
ing oil states TO put up a political battle.
And the only thing that counts in the world
today is battle. So long as the Independents
have something to fight for, they win con-
tinue the battle and they will win.
The oil industry is something worth
lighting for. The aIlOcated production for
October is something over 100000 barrels Of

we are preparing comprehensive report
on Conrad Butte structure Having seen the
drilling Of the pioneer wells on this structure
north Of Midway-we have a pretty clear
picture Of that situation, which we are will
ing and glad OF submit to our members. we
are working on a new map which wfll>go out
with the publication. On the bass Of the facts
set forth we viii decide whether we wish to
enter Conrad Butte for the purchase of
royalties other than those now held as a
result Of the drilling before acidization was
known.
Those interested In looking into the posi-
bilities Of Conrad Butte may secure a copy

some Montana stockholders in my firm If
1 am to operate in Montana. can see only
crucifixiOn in Montana politics for foreign"
corporations" We thought it mostly CONVEX
satiOn at the time Now we see the point.
But the greatest numerical strength by
far-gOaded by that income of S1S0,OOO ,OO0.OO
per year-are the ROYALTY OWNERS.
They are as a rule men of influence in the
communities in which they live. Many are
bankers, professional men and thrifty per-
sons who are investors and not gamblers Of
the stock market type. There may be "pOOr
white trash" among them, but they are for
the most part, potential compOnents Of q
powerful political influence
Many operators do not realize and do not
court their royalty owners. They do not take
them into the confidence of the industry
and enlist their services in the common
cause. Royalty owners over the country can
muster as much political pressure as any
other minority group If they are but called
upon. They are not organized, except in oc-
casiOnal small groups such as our OWL
and there are only 1000 of us, here in Mon
tana
We know from the responses we have had
whenever we have appealed to our members
that royalty owners are quick to write their
congressman. They are, as a rule, men who
read and understand. If they weren't readers
and thinkers, they probably wouldn't own
royalties. So it is logical to look to them for
help when political aid is needed.
We are talking entirely In terms of defense
for the industry. The oil industry has been
entirely complaicent thus far, taking what
ever the government has given Of good and
bad. The industry is rapidly drifting into a
position where it may be unable TO respond
when the time of danger arrives. The in
dustry may yet have to do battle with poll
ticians in order to be able to care for the
military needs Of the nation. Observing and
thinking people know what we are talking
about.

oil per day. The oil is worth 81 per barrel
average. That means an enterprise Of
S4,O0O,OOO per day. That is worth fighting
for, by the ROckefellers or by the little roy
atty owner getting a few dollars per month
There is a bond between the Majors, the In
dependents and their friends the royalty
owners. Together they make up pretty big
minority, and a powerful one.
OF that 100000 per day, one eighth Of
the oil goes to royalty owners. The average
royalty is one eighth although In many states
the royalty is much greater; as a rule,
royalties are scattered among many in
vestOrs. There are few landowners who have
not reduced their own risk by selling part
of their royalties before the first well was
drilled either on the structure or on each
particular farm.
OF every $4,000 600 worth Of oil produced
each day, $3.50 out of every $500 goes to
royalty owners, scattered over not only the
% producing states but in every state in the
union. Accordingly, $500, 600 worth of oil goes
to royalty owners each and every day. In a
year that amounts to something over $780,
100000.
That is something worth fighting for.
Here in Montana the October production
is fixed at 24,4OO bbI per day The average
value of that oil is above 81 per barrel but
taking 81 as the average, that is $24,4O0 per
day of income for the producers and royalty
owners. The royalty owners get S125O out
Of every $1OO, so they get SS,O50 per day out
of production of 24,4O0 bbl per day.
That rate means something in excess of
SI,O0O, 100000 per year, divided among Mon
tana royalty owners.
THAT is WORTH FIGHTING FOR.
II is important that royalty owners should
know and appreciate that they are in the
same boat with the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
and Majors as we'll In normal times we
could depend upon the industry heads to
take care of everything. We could sit back
and agree that we would like TO see certain
groups get a good trimming. But this Is war
time and it is the time for planning, design
ing minOrities to put over their pet projects
for which they would be willing to sacri-
flee the best interests of the country. They
are the ones who are willing to risk block
ing the winning of the war in order to OBJ
tain their detectives. They are ORGANIZED
and In organization comes the strength to-
day-attest the farm bloc In congress.
The oil industry is SAFE II the numerical
strength of the industry Is organized for
exertion at the right time. The producers,
refiners and marketers are relatively few.
Greater are the numbers Of their stock
holders. Would that there were more. The
trend Of modern times Is to eliminate stock
holders, thereby weakening the political
power of corporations, which the truly
American way Of doing business. We recall
