State Bureau
Studies Deep
Oil Formutions

a study Of possible oil bearing forma
tions below the Madison lime is being
conducted by the State Bureau Of Mines
and Geology, as one Of the projects
which viii result in early publiea
tions. This information was contained
in a dissertation on the activities of
the bureau presented by Or. f. S. Perry
at the recent meeting Of the Mining
Association Of Montana Following was
his statement regarding present ac.
'ivities Of the Bureau:
We have in course Of preparation
for publication report dealing with
the geology and mineral resources Of
the Jardine Crevasse Mountain area.
another on the occurrence of platinum
on Revais Creek, near Dixon in Sanders
county, report on the Highland Dis
trict in Silver Bow county which is
being help up because OF the gold
closing order, and a report on the
placer possibilities of the Gravelly
Range in Madison county. Also we have
in progress an investigation Of the
porOsity of the gas and oil sands of
the Cut Bank. area in addition TO
various research projects in geology,
metallurgy, and mineral dressing ear
ried on by graduate students One mem
her of the bureau staff is carrying on
continued investigation Of the lime
stone and deepseated sediments of Mon
tana with particular reference to the
occurrence Of oil in the deeper horizons
of the state. This work has attracted
the attention Of the larger oil com
panies and hold definite possibilities
for extending the productive oil areas
of the state. The bureau is cooperating
with the United States Geological Sur
vey in the preparation Of a geologic
map Of the entire state, which is ex-
pected to be published in the next
few years.

Questionable
In Wuste Basket
Costs Millions

It is the turn of small producers in
Montana to kick themselves.
When they received "another ques
tionnaire" from the Tariff Commission
most of them threw it in the waste
basket. That is what thousands of little
producers did OF 10000 producers in
the country only 1884 producers an
swered the questions: only the big com
panies whose average production per
well is 1877 Dbl. against an average of
"a Dbl. of all producers.
1t was on the basis of figures re-
ceived that the Tariff Commission told
the OPA that an increase in the price
of crude is not necessary. It will likely
be the direct cause of a dire shortage
of oil in the United States and possibly
slow down the war and cost many Amer
lean lives. The report was written in
conformity with what the OPA bureau
wanted, and was not based on the 1912
status of the oil industry. It will cost
little producers millions of dollars.
Here is the comment of the PICW
on that report:
at is the judgment of the commit
tee that the report is insufficient to
furnish a base on which to freeze pc
troleum prices. 1t is historical in its
scope, based on costs now obsolete. 1t
omits consideration of 80 percent of
the production, 80 percent of the wells,
and So percent of the producers. The
50 percent not covered by the report are
obviously the smaller producers, and
those who produce less per well, whose
costs average much higher than those
producing from larger wells. It makes
no effort to furnish an answer to the
most important question now confront
ing us, namely, the cost of finding new
oil"
Frank Buttram, president of indie
pendent Petroleum Association, said
that the report "will be of value to
the entire industry as historical infor-
nation" He added: "1n any calculation
of today's costs, Sept 80, 1941, is not
fair place to end survey, whether
it be on farming, producing oil or set
ting the family table,"

discoveries
Far Less Than
Consumption

Petroleum Administrator for War
Harold L. Iekes announced today that
the amount of crude oil discovered in
the United States during the year 1912
was only sol, 100000 barrels BY the
most liberal estimate, or about 81 per
cent of the approximately 100000,
600 barrels actually consumed during
the year
"This estimate" the administrator
emphasized is "a liberal and optimistic
estimate of what might be expected
on the most favorable probable basis.
"On the basis Of the traditional en-
cheering methods of estimating proven
reserves of crude oil-under which all
calculations are made on the conserva-
tive side-only 42l 100000 barrels were
discovered during the year"
For the first time, he pointed out, a
federal government agency has made a
survey Of all the new oil fields actually
discovered during a calendar year. AS
a result of this survey, it has been
determined that, during 1912, total Of
261 new oil fields were discovered, and
"A new producing horizons were diseov-
cred in old fields.
Deputy Administrator Ralph X Da-
vies said of the report:
at has been obvious for some time
that in the past several years the
United States has not been discovering
new crude oil reserves in sufficient vol
ume to equal the rate at which we have
been taking oil out of the ground to
meet the demand. We have been draw
ing on our accumulated capital to meet
our current expenses.
"In ordinary times this would be
somewhat serious, but not necessarily
alarming, because the trend might soon
be reversed. At time when the nation
is engaged in life and death struggle,
it becomes a matter for immediate con
Germ. In order to determine the facts
we have had this survey made by the
petroleum administration for war staff.
This is the first time that a federal
government agency has ever made a
survey to determine the actual amount
Of new proven oil reserves discovered
in any one year"

Dark Eyes" profoundly is not a
great play, but it is the merriest
translation of the Russians into
broken English that theatergoers
ever have laid ears on. It is a lest
that triumphs over more flaws of

over, it just possibly is the explana-
ton Of why such people can knock
the daylights out of the master

races which apply more modest la

In the first act, the passions OF

That is as much as the authors

but in the second act the action
moves upstairs to the boudoir, and
is energized by an entirely different
set of Russian passions. 1t is very
funny thing in sequence in which
the old Russian lover decides to re-
trace his steps back to Natasha, but
it is great deal funnier when To-
MIA, the more spiritual one of the
pair, undertakes to explain to her
American host why unspiritual love
is not for her The fact that he has
suggested neither kind, that neither
