POSTWAR SUPPLIES


The discussion next turned
10 tho question as 10 where oil
supplies would come from IN
the postwar period.
AT the present rate Of con
sumption of American crude
OIL" the executive said, "prOVen
reserves a. presently estimated
would last approximately l3
years. However, this method Of
appraisal of our available oil
supply is grossly impractical.
Many of our present producing
fields will require a. much as
80 wears 10 exhaust. For eN-
ample, there are fields i'm Okla
homa discovered 80 wears ago
which are now being reiuye-
mated by improved methods, and
some of them may recover more
oil i'm the future than they have
in the past 30 wears.
with freedom 10 develop
fields n II saw INT ana without
artificial price regulation and
other restrictive governmental
controls, the American oil in
dustry always found more oil
than il produced. There il no
reason to assume that this
cannot be continued indefinitely
i'm the world as a whole, IL the
industry has freedom in the
conduct Of its own business.
Also. prices Of crude and
products will have TO increase
Ia allow for greater cost Of dis
cONery, development and pro-
duction. Such price increases
will follow naturally IL the re-
strictions now imposed on the
American oil industry are elm
mated"

If I could paint word pictures I
would tell you of the sight I wit
messed from 6 am. until IL noon
today. We had a hospital train
come in from San Francisco and
it carried over 200 patients for us. I
talked to most of them and it was
my job to accept all money and
valuables from them for safekeeping,
and also to take their field medical
records from them.
They were all evacuees from some
Pacific war theater They filed past
me, some filled with bomb frag-
ments, some filled with hallucina-
tions and fears due to shell-shock,
some with malaria, some minus limbs
and mental capacities. Very few
of them will ever be able to go
back to the life they had before the
war due to these incapabilities.
1t is our job to restore them as
far as possible to health or to
transfer them to some Veterans
Administration for perpetual care
They realize this all too well, but
In spite of the future they face they
are jovial and beg us to let them
return.
