BIG THREE MAY MEET
 AS STALLS
Session of Foreign Min isfers En ding with
 Problems Unsettled
By FLORA LEWIS Associated Press Correspondent

LONDON, Sept. 25-Belief that another meeting of President Tru- man, Premier Stalin and Prime Minister Attlee may be necessary to iron out Europe's major peace problems was voiced in some quar- ters today as the Foreign Ministers Council prepared to close it's two weeks session with the record of important agreements precisely at zero.
 Some delegates still spoke hope fully of a second session of the Big Five" Foreign Ministers in De- cember but this could be arranged only if the deputies were able to work out solutions to the many problems tossed their way by the Foreign Ministers.
 There has been no formal men ton of another session of the major powers leaders, but the thought has been expressed by some delegates that top-level con- sideration might be needed to smooth the rocky path to European agreements.
 These sources felt it might be necessary to include Gen. de Gaulle in such a meeting. The French here have been reported resentful of what was termed an attempt by the Russians to exclude them from consideration of certain problems particularly the Balkan discussions.
 Gen. de Gaulle's object during the past year has been to obtain recognition of France as a major power. The French were just be- ginning to overcome the sting of being kept out of the Potsdam meeting when the Balkan treaty question arose.
 The French were expected to try to force consideration of plans for western Germany before the council adjourns today, but there seems little likelihood of success in that direction.

Statement Says Occupation of Nippon Land May
 Be for Years

TOKYO, Sept. 25.--Allied occupa- tion of Japan may last for many years although with minimum forces participating General Mac Arthur announced through an of- cial spokesman said.
 AS he spoke, combat-c clad veterans of Palau were dashing ashore at Aomori expanding the ground forces occupation to the northern most tip of Honshu.
 The statement was issued in de- nial of report September 2l by Ted Dealey, President of the Dallas, Tex, Morning News. Dealey had written that Macarthur told him the occupation could end in six months If we are not too ruthless and cruel"
 What he tMacArthur) said" to- days statement asserted, was that occupation forces, under favorable conditions, could be reduced to minimum size in six months.
 He has stated that the occupa- tion itself might last many years"
 Domei Quits
 Stripped of special privileges by the Allied command, Domei News Agency probably will quit, it's Presi- lent Inosuke Furuno reported today. He said he had decided to recom- mend its dissolution to the next meeting of the board of directors. Noting that three major Tokyo dailies were considering formation of new agency, he said 1t would be impossible to make both ends meet" if Domei attempted to oper- .te in competition.
 Controls CIamped
 Armed with a Presidential di- rective making it clear that he is the highest authority in Japan. Mac Arthur meanwhile clamped other controls ever moro tightly on Japan's political and economic life.
 Latest decrees forbade making arms, ammunition and aircraft: promised priorities necessary for production of food. clothing and houses: required careful reporting of virtually every large-scale financial transaction; unshackled the Japa- nese press; and spurred democratic education.
 Emperor Still Dumb .
 Emperor Hirohito, who well-in- formed Japanese say soon will call upon Macarthur in person, mean while offered no answers to ques- tions asking the extent of his prior knowledge of Pearl Harbor plans and his own specific role in the wars beginning
 Military authorities continued their roundup of suspected war criminals and reported today that Nobuyuki Abe, Japanese ex-Goy- ernor General of Korea. has been permitted to remain under guard in his Tokyo home duo to illness. He will be removed to jail upon re- i covery, officers said. to await ques- tioning or trial as one of the men on MacArthur's wanted" list.

} drill as many wells as possible.
d then go seek greener pastures.
Modern petroleum engineering has
changed all that. In fact. group of
petroleum engineers told the 25th
annual meeting of American Pero-
leum institute, here this week, that
60 acres per well was best for GER
tain types of oil reservoirs and that
even greater well-spacing might be
best under certain conditions.
This is a far cry from the days
when wells were drilled derrick to
derrick, and is even a radical de-
parture from the wartime regula-
ton of one well for each 40 acres.
The engineers who propounded
this new theory of well spacing,
based upon actual data from num-
Der of fields were: w. H. Barlow,
Findlay, Ohio, and w. B. Berwald,
Tulsa, Okla, both of the Ohio Oil
Co.
These engineers reported to the
institute meeting that not only can
not more oil be recovered from a
given field by drilling more wells,
but that the necessary, or "opti-
mum, number of wells actually re-
covers the maximum amount of oil
from given field.
The engineers maintained that
methods now are available which
permit reliable estimates of the be-
haviOr of an oil or gas reservoir
throughout its entire life. These
permit reliable estimate based
upon the known and estimated eco
Monies involved, of the number of
wells that should be drilled to OBJ
tain the greatest recovery of oil or
gas.
Well spacing is not however, they
warned, simple arithmetical prob
lem of dividing a given field by the
number of acres involved. No two
fields are identical. Many factors
enter into the calculation and prop
er spacing for ultimate maximum
recovery that can only be deter
mined after the reservoir has been
well developed-or even in its "old
age"
By careful case histories of exist
ing fields, however, and compari.
son with older fields, determination
of proper spacing for new fields can
be made.

reporting on an analysis of the ex

that well spacing seems to have
little to do with the optimum recov
cry. The recovery from the fields
studied, they concluded, lis depend

Pay Increase Denied
To 1000 Telephone
Workers by WLB

Demands by the District Fedora
ton OF Telephone Workers for a IS
weekly pay increase Tor some 1000
plant, commercial and accounting
employees of the Chesapeake 81 Poto-
mac Telephone Co. were denied yes
terday by the National War Labor
Board. The board recommended
only 81 and 81 raises for about 400
employees.
CLASSIFIED and nonclassified plant
workers were recommended for a 81
wage boost in their starting rate,
with messengers a 81 starting in
crease and a 81 top increase. Chauf-
feurs and guards were granted 81
starting rate increase and CONNER
cial representatives, engineers, engi-
neering assistants and coin box COL
lectors a 81 starting boost
The board also recommended a
continuance of maintenance MEM
bership, and the shortening OF wage
schedules from an 11-year maximum
period to an Swear maximum to
enable most employees to reach top
wages in less time.
: According to WLB spokesman,
the workers won't have to accept
this decision and still may negotiate
The ruling was handed down as a
recommendation rather than as an
order. The board, the spokesman
said. based its action on a wage pol.
Icy decision passed last January.
Before the present demands, he
added. both the company and the
union expressed willingness to &C.
cept the policy in effect.

declared they were studying the de.
cision and had no further comment
