Sinclair Buy
OF Own Stock
Has Approval

NEW YORK. - Stockholders of
Sinclair OIL corporation have APP
proved, after heated debate, pro-
posed contract between directors
and company president, Fl. F. Sin
clair. under which the latter would
buy 10000 shares of common
stock at S1325 share.
The vote of 7,64S,244 shares in
favor of the proposition, with 1885,
$50 against, followed informal
questioning during which Sinclair
announced that earnings justify,
and I am going to recommend, an
increase In the dividend" on COM
mon stock. The latest dividend was
Is cents share on May Is.
Sinclair estimated the company's
first quarter earnings, before taxes,
at more than double those of the
corresponding 1913 period.
Among complaints from minority
stockholders during debate on the
stock purchase plan were that Sin
clair viii receive dividends on the
stock in the three-year period over
which he is to pay for 1t, and that
since interest viii be charged at 3
percent, he will get in dividends
at current rates around $4,000 a
year more than he pays in inter
est.
Other stockholders contended
they should be offered similar pur-
chase rights, that Sinclair should
be charged more interest, that the
deal was poor business" and that
the stock might "overhang" the
market and depress prices. Some
objections were on a belief that
the contract was an option rather
than firm purchase agreement.
Benjamin Javits, who said he
was representing about 500 stock
holders, said ne had no complaint,
but would like to see other execu-
tives of the company buy more
stock In order TO increase their
incentive to advance the company
The stock to be sold to Sinclair
is part of 1,104,1I9 shares held In
the company treasury, which in
clude more than 100000 recently
bought from Rockefeller interests.
During informal discussion pre-
ceding the ballot, Sinclair said the
company was expanding its oper.
atoms in Venezuela, but that prop.
critics In this country, where the
oil lies deep in the ground, were
not being drilled because prices did
not justify deep workings.

Bureau of Mines win resume opers

Goal of the conversion campaign,
which does not affect home-heating
oil consumers, Is 5000, 900 barrel
a-year reduction in consumption of
heavy industrial fuel
The Solid Fuels Administration
has assured the PAW that suffi-
cient coal is available TO effect the
conversion. The office of defense
transportation has certified to the
availability of transportation TO
move coal into the area, and the
War Production board has indi-
Gated that necessary critical ma
terials will be released for the
changeover.
Although the main purpose of
the changeover as originally an
nounced was TO make extra Quanti-
ties Of oil available to the navy,
the consideration of tanker tonnage
savings involved i'm the shift to
coal has now advanced to the posi-
ton of prime Importance.
BY converting that amount of
industrial fuel oil consumption in
Washington, Oregon and western
Idaho, the equivalent of nearly
three 1900 lightweight ton, 10
knot tankers will be released for
continuous annual service on the
lengthening Pacific supply lines.
At the present time all petroleum
products consumed in the north
west area are shipped from
southern California by coastwise
ocean tankers. Although new tank
ers are coming off the ways in west
coast shipyards at an impressive
rate, this production is still hard
pressed to keep space with Allied
advances. Although these new
tankers are being used to transport
fuel oil to the northwest in their
break-in-runs, this same service can
be shifted to other and more
urgently needed petroleum products
in the northwest
An additional tanker tonnage
saving that will be effected by
the conversion and which is of
extreme importance to the mill
tary is that the industrial fuel oil
saved would be made available for
Pacific operations at southern
California port, thus eliminating
the necessity of the military getting
their product from Caribbean ports.
Significance of this saving is
Immediately apparent when one
looks at map, and measures the
difference in distance between a
Caribbean port and some far Pa.
cific point and a southern Cali
fornia port and the same Pacific
destination Since tanker capacity
is product of cubic capacity and
distance to be travelled, the saw
ings involved is Immediately obvi,
GUS.
