Calls Oil Men
to Throw Force
In War Effort

A virtual call 10 arms for north Mon
tana oil producers is contained in the
call for the meeting next Friday Of the
Montana Oil Gas Producers aasoeia
ton All producers have been called 10
meet at 2 o'clock on January rs, at the
court house in Shelby to consider the
participation Of the Montana oil in
duBtry in the war effort.
II Is the first membership meeting
called since inception Of the organiza
ton year ago. The business has here
t0fOre been transacted by an elected
board Of IS representative oil men.
A time when the utmost output
of Montana oil fields is demanded
to help win the war finds producers
and prospectors. virtually idle. -Four
fifths Of the operators In Kelvin
field have not drilled a well in five
years. Few Of the Independents in
Cut Bank field have drilling pro
grams for the year l943.
This situation is said TO result from
lack OF capital, made unobtainable by
the bureaucrats at Washington; from
restrictions in well spacing which leave
many operators with no locations that
can be profitably drilled; from lack Of
equipment, growing out Of drastic lin
/ itations on the entire industry by War
Production Board.
The meeting on Friday is designed to
open these topics for discussion, agree
upon a plan and throw the power Of the
communities, people and officials of
Montana behind an effort to break
down these barriers and loose flood Of
new production that viii contribute e
the war effort and forestall further

Idle Cosing Is
Due to Disappear
In Kelvin Field

Two new wells were started in Kelvin
field this week and there were many
rumors of plans Of other operators TO
resume drilling operations, despite the
fact that this is the theoretical "dead
Of winter" season. Several operators
are said to be impelled to drill at this
time because idle easing on their racks
may be subject to the call Of neighbOr
operators, under the new PAW rulings,
calling for division of idle equipment.
Many operators say that by spring
there will be no casing on the racks
in Kelvin fieid-whieh means that there
will be a brisk drilling campaign.
