OIL COMPANIES
 EARNINGS LOWER
Long-Ternl Outlook for Petroleum Men Favor.
 able Despite Conditions

Boston, Feb. 8.-(Up)-The long, term outlook for petroleum con- panies is stil favorable despite the current depressed conditions, the United Business service reported to- day.
 Gasoline rationg, fixed prices, reg ulated production and drastic cur tailment of drilling activity have re- duced the 1942 earnings of oil coYn- panies 30 per cent. However, the service predicts that these bearish forces are likely to prove bneficial to the industry in the long run.
 The oil industry which for years suffered from over-production now has a new problem. Sharply re- duced drilling and war-stimplated research in petroleum base products have made the oil industry fearful that output will fall short of rec quirements.
 Research officials point to the fact that large quantities of oil are needed to produce synthetic rub Der, alcohols, plastics and many other items. Such products can be made more cheaply from oil than by processes now employed in the chemical field, the service believes,
 Despite the pil problems, oil shares are attracting growing i1- vestment and will show er-than- average-market performance over the months ahead, the service fore- casts.
