John c. Henry:

The condition Of permanent
uncertainty which seems to have
settled over the great oil-bearing
area of the Middle East lends an
increasing Importance today to
the proving and development of
the Unexpectedly large petro-
leum reserves in Canada.
In five years of spectacular
discovery and exploitation. Can
ada is emerging as one of the
potentially great oil-producing
nations of the world. While 1t
is a development that is surpris-
ing by its magnitude it is in
teresting to note that in 1889
Sir Alexander Mackenzie, de-
Scribed as the first white man
to span the Canadian continent
from Atlantic to Pacific, men,
toned the presence of petro-
leum Seepage in the Elk River
at the eastern end of Lake
Athabasca. And in 1858, a year
earlier than the generally ac-
cepted birth date of the oil in
dustry in the United States, a
producing well was opened in
Lambton County. Ontario.
AS recently as early 1947,
however, Canada was still in
position of having to buy 80
per cent Of her own petroleum
needs and the Turner Valley
field near Calgary was the only
one of major proportions. The
discovery which was to change
the course of the country's
entire economy-and it may be
Of great Importance to the whole
free world-came in February,
1947. when the first well at
Lejuc, near Edmonton, blew in.
Some comparative statistics re-
veal what that event has meant.
In 1946. Canadian petroleum
reserves were estimated at As
million barrels; at the beginning
Of this year these estimates had
been lacked up as high as
100 million barrels. The daily
production potential had risen
from $4,000 barrels to 205,0O0
barrels.
Along with these discoveries
and their development has come
comparable expansion of re-
fining and transport facilities.
A 1916 refinery capacity of
slightly more than 100000
barrels per day-fed in large
part by imports of crude-will
be doubled by next year. At the
end of the war, Canada had only
about 100 miles of pipe lines.
Today, a 1,126-mile line-one
of the longest in the world
stretches from Edmonton to q
Great Lakes terminal at Supe-
rior, Wis. Another 700-mile
line is under construction from
the Edmonton area to Vancouver
on the west coast, and another
of 100 miles across Southern
Ontario.

Of the tasks of the national

If the Governor is Fastening

be only common sense. Every

Visitors to Springfield suggest
that organization is one OF the

In the third place, it is be-
ginning to look as if Repubn-
cans are going to put more
emphasis on the personality Of
their war-hero candidate than
on putting forward a construc-
tive program of their own. They
will depend on him to mes
merize the multitudes, without
committing himself too clearly.

ingly ignorant of issues, &C

Reforms Under Serious Threat

0oins Made by the American People in the Lost 20 Years

How far President Truman
will go in discussing campaign
issues with Gov. Adlai Steven
son in their forthcoming White
House luncheon conference next
week has not been disclosed.
Cabinet members will sit in on
this session with the Demo-
cratic presidential candidate.
But the President does have
a reSponsibility-from which
his pretended role of private in
the ranks" cannot excuse him
to stress to Gov. Stevenson
the responsibility which the
Democratic candidate is assum-
ing relating to the party's rec
ord and program.
This is a responsibility to the
people as a whole, aside from
politics, to carry forward vigor-
ously. on all fronts, the fight
to hold the gains made by the
American people in the New
Deal-Fair Deal regimes of the
last 20 years. It might be said
this Is automatic. But it is not,
For not only are some of these
gains under serious threat. Be-
yond that, the peculiar circum-
stances OF this election and the
atmosphere in which it is held
encourage a soft" attitude to-
ward what President Truman
calls "the special interests" The
latter have involved themselves
deeply In this election in what
they see as a golden opportu-
nifty. They are seeking to cap

AS for the peculiar circum-
stances and atmosphere, it may

mittedly is over. the rough-and-
tumble, no-holds-barred reform
period which was necessary to
catch the country up with

courage and stamina to fight

changes and likewise the ability,

His Personal Friend, as National Committee Chairman

Gov. Adlai Stevenson is clear

the name of his personal friend,
Stephen Mitchell of Chicago, q
lawyer and a Catholic, as chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee.
Some leaders accept it as a
fact that Mr.. Mitchell has the

present clearance is advisory,
with a final decision still to be
made.
Gov. Stevenson mentioned
MIR. Mitchell to friends immedi-

to see in the Craftsmanship. He
said then that he realized Mr..
Mitchell was not well known in
the party and would have to
