Fuel Oil Rdtions
Stay Unchanged

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 (INS)
Fuel oIt ratIons IN the SO states
under the program will be I'M
changed in Period 2 beginning
Nov. 80, OPA Administrator
Chester Bowles announced today
The present ration value is 10
gallons per ration unit
Period 3 coupons, which also
become effective Nov 80 in mid
western and southern states under
fuel oil rationing, also have been
given a l0-gallon unit value, OPA
said
The agency added that fuel oil
supplies are adequate TO meet
ration demands, but are not high
enough TO warrant an increase in
gallonage
Meanwhile. Petroleum Admins
traitor ICkeS reported that ship
mentS OF oil TO the East Coast
exceed last years supply by more
than 100000 barrels a day, but
added. that gasoline stocks in the
East are still far below normal.

'Armistice' Doesn't
Imply Any Change in
Surrender Policy
BY the Associated Press.


BY the Associated Press.
The word "armistice,s CROP
ping up in stories about the
shifting Italian situation, does
not imply any change of Allied
heart on unconditional surren-
der of the Axis.
An armistice, military men
pointed out today, is merely
temporary cessation of hosti,-
tiles to arrive at a more perma-
nent end of the fighting. There
must be an armistice first. so
the enemy commander has time
to say he will surrender.
And. Furthermore, there are
conditions even in an uncondi-
tional surrender. The condi-
tons simply are imposed by the
victor, and any good thing the
defeated power gets out of it
comes as a bounty.

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The Algiers
radio, quoting a dispatch from Is

Ambassador Franz Won Papen pro-
tested to the Turkish government
that Hitler was displeased over the
latitude allowed Axis adherents in
contracting representatives of the
Allies.
This was said to have referred
particularly to Hungary and the
recent visit to Ankara of Christoph
Won Kallay, son of the Hungarian
Premier.

How Success Begets Success

the production on Midway and
the so-called Conrad Butte struc-
ture?
What about the area to the
East that is being tested by The
Texas company?
Our greatest successes in Cut
Bank field resulted from the use
of our Imagination when The
Texas COmpany's South Cut
Bank well was completed. We
drew a line between that well
and the nearest Cut Bank pro-
ducer-seven miles distant and
we began buying royalties along
that line while others We're talk
ing about "syncline" between
the two. Those are some of the
best royalties we bought in Cut
Bank.
So why not apply imagination
to a situation in Midway.
Ten miles southwest of the
Rispin producer on Midway is
The Texas company's Schlepp
discovery we'll on its Brady
block, also producing from the
Sunburst sand. In view of the
fact that the Sunburst sand is
nowhere else productive, south
of the Marias river, it can be
imagined that the production of
the Schlepp well and the Rispin
well is related. 1t takes a brave
person to venture out In such
vast open spaces. The hardest
job we ever had was to get our
people to buy royalties midway
between those two Cut Bank
producers, because it took more
imagination than money.
A line drawn between these
two wells BRADY to Midway
covers lot of highly speculative
territory, far ahead of the drill
But it is in such spots that the
greatest opportunities for FOR
TUNES - as c0ntrasted with
mere profits-are revealed by
these SunburSt sand discoveries.
There is no certainty: only a
gambling chance for success.
But the successes recorded in
other Montana fields pretty
clearly define the rules for flu
ture successes.
The Montana crude oil market
viii call for 10 DOC, 900 barrels per
year in the years to come. That
is more oil than ever produced
before. That market will not en-.
rich Cat Creek royalty owners
because Cat Creek Is. pretty well
exhausted; 1t win not enrich
owners of other exhausted pools
1t will enrich the owners of roy
alties on pools in NEW TERRI
TORY such as Midway and Pen
droy and the High Gravity poo
on the rimrock northwest OF
Kelvin. The rules of success
which made fortunes for in
vestors in the past will make
the greater fortunes of the fiji
ture. There is no mystery Oh
magic about it: mostly common
sense.
We are guided in our buyinl
largely by the desires of ouI
members. To those who desig
nate the areas in which they ar
interested we viii submit offer
ing sheets descriptive of avail
able landowners royalties.

NOLn1ng succeeds IKE success
and the secret of success is care
full observation of successful
methods. That applies TO every
line of endeavor but particularly
to success in the oil industry.
Our first royalty buying was
in Cat Creek field. We knew so
little about royalties and about
royalty values and geology that
the money our members made
was due to the fact that Cat
Creek field produced about five
times as much as it was expected
to produce. We learned some
valuable lessons in Cat Creek
that made it possible for us to do
better in Kevin-Sunburst field
where our members have shared
in about six million dollars paid
to royalty owners. Fortunately
we had some very practical adj
visors in Kevin-Sunburst who
prevented us from paying too
much for royalties, as many had
done in Cat Greek. There are few
if any royalties we purchased in
Kevin-Sunburst field that will
not pay profit when drilled
out.
Our observation of the rules
in Kevin-Sunburst was a ire
mendous help when Pondera oil
field came in and greater still
when Cut Bank field came in.
Each field was brought in be-
cause certain simple tell-tale fac
tors revealed the presence of a
pool: factors so simple that
everyone afterward said: II
knew it all the time"
The difference between sue
cess and failure in these fields
was the difference between do.
ing and not doing the logical
thing. The Gordon Campbell
discovery well at Kelvin was a
failure. Everyone knew it was a
failure at the time. But there
were few who saw beyond this
failure. They saw SIGNIFI
CANOE in a well with so much
oil as shown in the Campbell
well. Located $50 miles from the
nearest production, it meant mo-
a fizzled oil well but a NEW
EMPIRE in oil. Those who haC
realized the significance of ths
Charles discovery well (also 4;
failure) in Cat Creek, wen
ahead and bought farms, leases
and royalties in Kelvin field ant
made fortunes, with the guild
ance of the Campbell well.
The same story applies to tn
discovery of Pondera oil fiel,
and to the discovery of Cut Banl
field. The stories are identical
except for a change in dates ant
descriptions So we come to Per
droy where the Taylor discover,
well found more oil than wa
found in any other discover
well in northern Montana. Their
are many - probably the vas
majority-who do not see tn
significance of that well. If tn
field were called Cut Bank an
the well were called the Drum
heller well, they might suddenl
awaken because everyone know
now that the Drumheller 'tfai
ure" was the initial well In a on
hundred million dollar oil pc

We are approaching the real
object of this discussion: MID
WAY.
When the Tarrant-Wood well
struck oil in the Sunburst sand,
that same vast majority com
mented that it was interesting
and did nothing about 1t.
When the DeSteffany well, some
distance away, found oil in the
Sunburst sand in small quanti-
ties a great many yawned and
commented: 81 thought So" The
fact that neither well filled tanks
with oil overshadowed the
startling discovery of oil in a
horizon that is nowhere else pro-
ductive in the $50 miles between
Kevin-Sunburst and Cat Creek
fields. The fact that oil was
found in Midway in the horizon
which has given Cut Bank its
greatest producers did not reg
lister with a great many. The
few with whom it DID register
will make the fortunes of to-
morrow.
One of the few was the Hage-
man-Pond group which determ-
ined that the little oil found in
the Wood and DeSteffany wells
justified the drilling of five
wells-all dry holes, If need be.
They drilled their first well and
have a good producer equal to
the SunburSt-Davey No. l, the
first commercial producer in
Kevin-Sunburst field.
None can profit by the Charles
well on Cat Creek, or the Camp
bell well at Kelvin, or the Mon
tana Pacific well on Pondera or
the Drurnheller well at Cut
Bank The profits made possible
by those wells have gone and
will continue to go to the chosen
few who moved AHEAD OF
TIL DRILL. Likewise it is rather
late to expect to capitalize the
Pendroy discovery and to CAPT
talize the Midway discovery by
buying mid-field properties. 1t
was not too late after the com
pletion of the DeSteffany but ii
is too late after the completion
of the Rispin.
The fortunes on Midway are
MADE today by present owner
ship of royalty. The future of,
fers PROFITS to investors but q
fraction of what viii be made by
those who bought before AND
after the discovery at the Wood
well.s
There is no money to be made
by lamenting over the failure tx
grasp great opportunities of Z
few weeks ago at Midway. There
is money to be made, we believe
by following up a very simple
line of reasoning.
We KNOW that there is oil a
the top of the MADISON liml
at Conrad Butte, north of Mid
way and on the same structure
uplift. True, no storage tank
have been filled to overflow witt
this oil. But the Big Eleven vel
drilled years ago and bef0r
acidization, DID find live oil a
the top of the lime.
Here is where little imaginf
ton comes into play:

HOW ABOUT THE RED CROSS?

The Red Cross campaign to raise funds
for the support of its war work is almost
over in point of litime. Many Americans
have overlooked this important phase OF
war supportg eai II sssgi ss
Thegoa set by the Red Cross was very
modest, compared with sums raised during
the first World War. 1t is, of course, only
beginning. If the war lasts well into 1913
the Red Cross viii need many additional
millions of dollars and it ought to get them
without trouble from the American people.
So, If you have not yet contributed to

to serve our fighting men, get busy at once
DO not wait for campaign solicitor to see

JAPAN LET'S sAIPs co TO RUSSIA

sas One of the most significant revelations
in connection with the wars now raging
Throughout the world is the willingness of
Japan to permit Russian ships, loaded with
war supplies in the United States, to steam
unmolested through the Pacific Ocean to
Siberia
Obviously Japan is not at war with
Russia, but the Japanese have an agree
ment with the Axis powers of Europe. The
pans only friends, but the willy orientals do
nothing to halt the shipment of war ma
terials to Russia
This indicates that the alliance be-
tween Japan and her European allies is ex-
tremely loose and that the Japanese are not
anxious to invite Russian declaration of
war at this time. It may even mean that the
japanese. in carrying out the terms of their
non-aggression pact with Moscow, have q
full understanding that Moscow will, in
time, prove as faithful to the agreement.
Lend-lease charts, exhibited in Wash
ington, reveal that approximately one-third
of our war shipments to- Russia travel
across the Pacific to Siberia These cargoes
move with the full knowledge of Japan, III
Russian ships and officials in this country
emphasize that they are restricted only by
the number of Russian ships available.
The fact that these shipments is evil
dence that Japan does not expect the Rus
slams, when they finish their war with Ger
many and Italy, to join the United States
and Great Britain in fight to the finish
with Japan. Nothing else can explain ia
pans acquiescence in the traffic going on.
