Foreign Oil Policy

The American oil industry urges the adop-
tion bv OUR government of foreign oil policy
at once which, in the words of the Petroleum
Industry War Council, recognizes that:
1.-THE combined domestic and foreign OIL
reserves held by nationals of the United
States. constitute a smaller proportion OF 1ne
petroleum reserves of the world than the
ratio of United States consumption OF Pc
trole,,nn to total world consumption. Action
is needed to enlarge the reserves under the
stewardship of nationals of the United ota1es'
and to encourage the retention OF exls1lng
contracts.
nationals of the United States should not
be in a position of inferiority in acquiring
and developing petroleum reserves WITHIN the
territories or spheres of influence OF other
nations.
.Of the three possible methods for develop
ing the oil resources of the world-govern-
ment operations, private enterprise, and
mixed operations-private enterprise is the
surest and soundest choice. Private enter
prise has developed the requisite managerial
skill and operating knowledge, and it is al
ready well established. Private enterprise can

Say 1t Is Duty Of State

There is shaping up in Wilmington a school
Of thought which takes long range view OF
the care and treatment of tuberculosis pa
tents. rather than the immediate need of a
local sanitarium. Those who hold this view
say the state is primarily responsible for the
disease and any expansion should be under.
taken by the state, rather than local, govern
ments They point out that with existing re-.
srictions on building materials Wilmington
could not hope to erect satisfactory sani-
tarium until after the war and then only at
prices which would probably exceed any cost
estimates prepared now.
It is their thought that the state might be-
gin negotiations now for taking over an army
hospital as soon as it is no longer needed
by the armed forces-notably the hospital at
Fort Fisher which is fully equipped-as a
temporary means of hospitalizing persons at
ficed with tuberculosis in southeastern North
Carolina; that if such a deal could be made
the taxpayers would be saved much money.
as construction costs should be met by the
state treasury instead of the county treas
Try, that the tax burden should be divided
among all the people instead of those in one
area only.
This summary Of one groups view is given
mere to show what is passing through the
minds of some Wilningtonfans so that the
Board of County Commissioners may weigh
1t in further conferences on the tuberculosis
1t does not represent any recess
sion from this newspapers position that ade-
quate provision should be made for segregat-
ing and caring for tubercular patients, not
only that they may have their fair chance to
be restored to health and usefulness but for
me protection of the whole population.

By ERNIE PYLE.

IN ITALY - BY Wireless) -
When soldiers sit around during
luu periods at the front, they talk
about everything under the sun.
Out of my recent times with from
line outfits I've tried to remem-
Der some of the things they talk
ed about.
Two things eventually come up
in every extended conversation:
the latest rurnor about the outfit,
and discussions of what home is
like and when We'll get home.
The latest rumor was that my
outfit was to get no more replace
ments for men lost in battle, which
led inevitably to a belief that they
were to be withdrawn and sent
home. Nobody really believed it.,
but everybody wanted to believe
it. There were also rumors that
the outfit was going to England
and to India.
Memories of what America was
like are actually getting pretty
dim to men who have been over
seas two years. AS one Iowa boy
said, stWhy, even England is dim
in my memory now, and we were
there long after we were in the
States"
One boy said that no matter
where we went was bad for him,
because we'd have to 60 by ship

In Appreciation

Even though the certificate for air service
along the southern Atlantic coastal region was
finally issued to National Airlines, Wilmington
owes debt of gratitude to Colonial which the
CAB turned down. 1t was not until Colonial
made determined effort to provide service
in this area that other lines bestirred them
selves for franchise Wilmington is to get
air communication because Colonial went to
bat for it when other companies were indif-
ferent.
Yes, Wilmington is indebted to Colonial in
a big way.
1t now develops that Colonial has not given
up its fight. When times are propitious, it is
understood an effort will be made to extend
its service not to Nassau alone, as originally
contemplated, but into South America. We
hope that it is successful not only because
of the kindly feeling we have for the line
but also because it will provide for stops at
City, New Bern, Myrtle Beach and
Georgetown, which are not on Nationals
schedule.
Air service would be of tremendous advan-
tage to them all and prove potent agency
in their further development.
