Anent Slide Rule Boys

American people by building up
bootleg or black markets which OPA
tries to regulate.
This discussion, coming directly
from the congress, called to mind
the statement issued by Lou r. Max
on in resigning as chief information
officer of OPA. Maxon was respon-
sible for getting rid of Dr. Galbreath
and otherwise performed a great
service to the nation by telling the
public about the inner workings of
OPA. His resignation led to the in
PRODUCTION in congress of q ono
professor" amendment, which would
require that no man should be EN-
ployed by the government to direct
a great business who had had no
experience in business. Here are
some statements from the text of
Maxon's letter, which win give oil
men some explanation of the bung-
ling policy of OPA with regard to
the oil industry;
"The heads of many of our vi
tai departments are handicapped by
a fundamental lack of experience.
We have large number of pro-
fessors and theorists whose unwork-
able ideas have been conceived in
the rarefied atmosphere of the class
room.
'Mueh of the confusion in OPA
has been caused by lack of under
standing of the problems involved
in all their depth, and a complete
unwillingness to seek or accept the
advice and knowledge Of men ex-
perienced in the fields affected. In
OPA there is a marked distrust of
business people.
fsThe PROFESSIONAL mind, in my es-
timation, is one of the most danger
GUS factors in our government to-
day. Instead of the broad view that
is theoretically promised their think
ing under the unaccustomed glow of
authority takes wing and scars
through the clouds unimpeded by
facts and unhindered by aetuality.
'I've had my fill of these sliderule
boys. I've found there is no give
to their inelastie, academic minds.

The greatest worry for the free
dom-loving people of the United
States is not whether the Allies viii
win the war, Senator B. K. Wheeler
told Montana oil men at Cut Bank
Wednesday. The question, he said, il
whether the American people can
maintain democratic republic.
He discussed the OPA and the
need of practical men in govern
ment departments at Washington,
d. G. He expressed admiration for
such men as Jesse Jones and Harold
Ickes. he said that Ickes has not
built up a great army of employees
as has OPA and other agencies.
Ickes has not called in impractical
economists" to do the world over.
Instead, he has called in experienced
business men of honesty and integ-
rity to help frame policies which
have resulted, he said, in the most
remarkable achievements of the war:
such as the supplying of the East
coast in the face of the submarine
campaign and the contribution of
steel through the industry's drilling
eurtailment.
Senator Wheeler expressed admira-
ton for Prentice Brown but termed
his job as head of the Office of
Price Administration as impossible"
The attitude of OPA in blocking an
increase in the price of oil in the
face of an impending oil shortage is
typical, he said, of the impractical,
inexperienced people who furnish
the so-called brains of the OPA who
do not know what is going on in
the country.
The senator gave examples of the
runaway wages resulting from the
cost-plus war industries in which the
contractor makes money by spending
money. No matter how honest is
OPA's intention to prevent infla-
tion, it is apparent, he said, that the
runaway has already taken place
by throwing into circulation far
more money than there are goods
to buy, thus making criminals of

They try to make a walled city out
of OPA because there is no opinion
equal to their own unless it is one
of complete agreement or of greater
daring in their world of dreams.
"They don't want the advice of
people who are experienced. Their
book bound, dream-ribbed classroom
minds definitely have no doors or
windows leading in.
"There is no question that OPA
has consistently defied the price
control act in refusing to consult
with the businesses affected except
in a strictly windOw-dressing man
ner.
"There is little attempt to OBJ
serve or utilize the normal proc
esses of business. It must be new
and different and difficult or it isn't
OPA.
81 don't believe OPA should be
turned over to big business or little
business or any group or interests.
However, OPA should welcome the
experience and knowledge and CO.
operation of people who know the
thtiACatc PAOD4Ctnb VI thOSC aAACSbc0
by their orders. Industries should
have a part in making the regula-
tions they must live with. OPA has
failed to take full advantage of
business experience and good sense
in helping make their programs work.
If a man owns an extra suit of
clothes or if he has been success
in business that shouldn't bar him
from service in 0PA. And a college
degree shouldn't be necessary.
"Only country as great as ours
could survive the bungling and i'm
practical dreaming of OPA that has
thrown much of the conntry's small
business into confusion.
9OPA must not fail It's a vital
agency that affects directly the
life Of every one In the nation. 1t
must be made to function and only
a complete house-eleaning win per-
init this. The record of the past
proves beyond a doubt that the pro-
fessors and lawyers and theorists
just haven't done the job

Welcome Ch0nce to
Meet Heuds of PAW

eeption. d. R. Knowlton, director of
production for PAW, said that such
exceptions are never denied when there
is a bona fide intention to explore new
horizons. K d. Pardee cited the fact
that well drilled in the gas area as a
Madison lime test is a "wild cat"
Knowlton said that such a well requires
an exception to the spacing rule but
that it would doubtless be granted. Such
well could not be produced as a gasser,
however, unless GAO acres could be allo-
Gated to it.
j. W. johnson maintained that wells
drilled for oil in the gas area should
come within the rule of one well to 40
acres. A meeting of producers with
members of the PAW staff was held,
following the general session. A def
mite ruling is expected to follow the
discussion. A wildcat was defined as a
well two miles from any producer of
oil and gas.
G. M. MeCabe of Cut Bank led the
discussion in the afternoon session. All
the meetings were presided over by R.
S. Shannon, chairman Of the district
committee. About l25 oil men attended
the open meetings and IS of them were
luncheon guests of the Cut Bank com
mittee at noon. Senator B. K. Wheeler
was the luncheon speaker. He was in
trOduced by George McCabe. Senator
Wheeler said that the government has
been unable to cope with initiation be-
cause of the runaway prices of cost
plus government eOntracts-where the
more the contractor spends, the more he
makes. He told of ridieulously high
wages paid workmen who were taken
from more important jobs which they
abandoned to accept the high wages.
Regulation of commodity prices has be-
come impossible, he said, developing a
nation of bootleggers and black mar
kets.
Chairman Shannon of the district
committee was highly pleased with the
entertainment provided for committee
members, the district staff, and the
distinguished visitors from Washington.
Mr.. Knowlton and Robert B. Kirk, chief
of reclamation, joint use of facilities
and manpower section of PAW, produc-
ton division. 1t was the largest meet
ing yet held and the most pubhcized.
Mr.. Shannon said that after meetings in
Casper and Denver, another meeting
will be held in Montana, probably in
Billings or Great Falls.

question which led The Texas company,
Carter Oil Co. and others to lease
several hundred thousand acres in west
ern Pondera and Teton counties. Carter
Oil Co. took over the Ralph Chamber

is believed to be due to faulting along
