anticipated in this state for many
years to come.
Few Mississippians realize that
oil and natural gas pipe lines pass
through "a of this states 80 coun-
ties, and that these counties, as we'll
as the state, derive substantial tax
revenue from this presence. Pipe
lines are seldom noticed, for they
are laid under the ground, but they
are a vital, integral part of Missis-
sippi's growing oil and gas indus
try-an unseen partner without
which the expansion of Mississippi
oil and natural gas production
would be curtailed seriously"

Queen Elizabeth
Invites Tubman Ia
Visit Jamaica

LONDON-President Tubman of
Liberia, who is engaged in making
state visits to the United States.
Haiti and Lebanon, will also in
clude Jamaica in his itinerary. This
announcement was made as is was
learned Queen Elizabeth had ex-
tended an invitation and it had
been accepted by President Tub
man.
The story behind the invitation is
that Gov. Hugh Foot, who has been
visiting in England, learned of the
proposed Tubman visit to Haiti just
two hours flight from Jamaica.

previous surveys, the committee re-
ported that efficient operation of
the industry requires storage ca
pacity larger than the amount of
products moving into and out of
storage.
It was emphasized that large
portion of total reported invento-
ries is unavailable for shipment be-
cause it is tied up in the manufac-
turing, storage and transportation
systems which must be maintained
at full levels for proper function
ing of such things as pipelines.

Gov. Foot Immediately suggested
to the colonial office that he be
permitted to invite President Tub
man to Jamaica because many
emigrants to Liberia are from
Jamaica.
"Oh no, you cannot do that" he
was told. Liberia is a sovereign
nation and only the Queen may ex-
tend an invitation to the head of
another nation"
Queen Elizabeth was appraised
of Jamaica's desire and promptly
extended an invitation to the head
of the African Republic.

erals, amounts to six per cent of
their value at the wellhead. The
State of Mississippi and the pro-
ducing counties share, then, six
per cent of the total value of all
Mississippi oil and gas production.
Since the laws levying those taxes
were enacted-in 1914 for oil; 1948
for gas-the state treasury and the
producing counties have divided
better than SAG million in severance
taxes alone.
Nearly 1900 miles of pipe lines
traverse IA of Mississippi's 80
counties. Each mile of these UNI
foreground carriers is an asset, for
the total assessed valuation Of Mis-
sissippi pipe lines for advalorem

railroad mileage in the state.

liquid hydrocarbons. Two addi-
tional plants of the latter type are
under construction.
Geophysical exploration activity
has increased sharply in recent
months and the number of wells
drilled in 1854 in Mississippi is al
most certain to exceed the 412 dug
in 1853. Estimated average cost
of drilling a "dry hole" failure in
Mississippi is $4,000; of complet-
ing the average Mississippi produc-
ing oil or gas we'll, $4,000. Wells
in Northeast Mississippi, and very
deep wells throughout the state
cost far more to drill-a completed
$3.50 oiler requires about $225, 900.
A few wells, plagued by Mechanical
difficulties at great depths, have
cost more than one million dollars.

Oil, Gas Spending,
Taxes, Production
Spur State Growth

Mississippi's oil and gas indus
try, Is years old just last month,
today ranks above all other state
industries except the long-estab-
lished agriculture and timber indus
tries in economic Importance to
Mississippians.
Since the discovery of Mississippi
pts first oil field in September of
1889, new industry has grown up
within the borders of the Magnolia
State. 1t is an industry of state
wide Importance.
Some exploration has been con-
Quoted in every Mississippi county,
and oil or gas production has been
established in 80 of the So pro-
vinces.
About $4,000 Mississippians re-
ceive regular production royalties
and many thousands more enjoy
additional income from their nom
productive land in the form of
rental payments under oil and gas
lease agreements. Well over one
third of Mississippi's area-more
than 100000 acres - is under
lease to oil companies or indie
pendent operators.
The widely distributed economic
benefits arising from leasing ac-
tivity have become sharply evident
to central Mississippi landowners,
attorneys and chancery clerks over
the past three months as spirited
lease buying on the strength of the
Bolton oil discovery poured over
five million dollars in leases bonus
es and fees into the area.
Estimates of the annual expendi-
lures of the oil and gas industry in
Mississippi, said by E. D. Kenna,
spokesman for the local division of
the Mid-Continent Oil and Gas
Association, to be extremely con-
sentative, are as follows: $40 mill
lion in wages paid to more than
5000 Mississippians working in
jobs related to oil and gas pro-
1uction (does not include marketing
personneD; $25 million in lease
bonuses, lease rentals and produc-
ton royalties paid to land and
royalty owners throughout the
state; nine million dollars paid to
Mississippi firms for supplies and
services; $25 million spent in the
drilling of both exploratory and de-
elopment wells; and SIP million in
yarious types of taxes paid to state
and local governments. The total
investment" of private capital in

he modern petroleum industry is
nearing completion here with the
construction of a new modern Of
flee building to house the Inter-
state Oil Compact Commission. The
building is ideally situated (at 900
NE 23rd ST. amid the gas and oil
wells that dot the state capitol
grounds. Dedication ceremonies
will be held November 16 at which
time Johnston Murray, Governor of
Oklahoma, will present the keys to
the building to Earl Foster, execu-
tive secretary Of the Commission.
Hundreds of dignitaries among the
28-member states and industry are
expected to attend. Also to attend
are many of the governors of the
member states and their official
representatives that make up the
commission boards.
Oil conservation is of prime i'm
portance in Oklahoma and through
the interstate organization other
oil producing states have become
we'll aware Of the service to the in
dustry through the education pro-
gram fostered by the Interstate Oil
Compact Commission. The build
ing is an outgrowth of 20 years
service to these oil producing states
and the industry by the Commits
sion.
The Commission is a combination
of % states, bound by treaty to
stimulate the petroleum industry
through state conservation pro-
grams designed to develop the use
of gas and oil and maintain a con-
tinuous supply. The Commission
itself has no power to regulate any
phase of the industry other than
the presentation of effective ideas
to educate member states and their
industry, their need for a conser-
walton program to protect this most
vital natural resource by producing
all available oil from each pool
Regulation of the industry is re-
served by individual state legisla-
ton and administered through local
state agencies.
The Compact was formed in 1896
through the combined efforts of
the governors Of the oil producing
states of Oklahoma, Texas, New
Mexico, Kansas, Colorado and Illi-
! nois. The effectiveness of the Com
pact is evidenced by the fact that
at the end of World War l, the life
of the petroleum industry was esti-
mated at ID years. Since that
time production and use has more
than tripped and there is no i'm
mediate foseeable decline in our
known supply. According to 1t,
Gen. Ernest 0. Thompson, of Aus
tin, Texas, chairman of the Texas
railroad commission and nation
ally recognized authority on oil
conservation, this country has pro-
duced as much as 10-billion barrels
of oil through the state conserva-
ton programs that would other
wise not have been produced. The
industry itself has declared the
commission the only effective or
ganization capable of continuing
this program of enlightment and
education that has advanced the
product use of oil, gas and petro-
leum until it is today used in more
ways in more homes than any other
product.
Since the Commission has been
designated as the father of the
modern petroleum industry, it is
fitting that the design of it's new
home be in keeping with modern
functional design. The building is
constructed of Arkansas cherry
stone, laid in stone piling in COM
bination with cream Roman brick.

Field Trials For
New Rural Phone
System Scheduled

Field trials are scheduled to start
in the next few weeks on new
rural telephone system which holds
promise of helping provide more
and better service to the Nation S
farming areas, John P. Evans,
South Florida Manager of the
Southern Bell Telephone Company
said here today.
The tranSistor, the revolutionary
electronic device invented at the
Bell Telephone Laboratories, is the
heart of the new system, which
permits many conversations to
share a pair of telephone wires
without interfering with each 9TH
er. It can operate over distances
as short as five miles.
Other systems of transmission
not using the transistor have been
able to do this economically only
over much longer distances.

His son, Leonard 7. Curry, Jr.,
placed second in the boys division.
The other Key Wester to win hon.
ors was Mrs. Phillip Strunk, who
placed second in the women S
class.
The tournament was held under
conditions closely approximating
actual hunting conditions. The tar
gets were animal drawings of ma
tural size with kill areas inScrib-
ed in shallow margins which could
not be seen from the shooting
stake.
The first IA targets were shot
from N. F. A. A. distances with
five per cent variations as allowed
by national standards.
The second IA targets were fired
at completely unknown distances
with first arrow kills equalling 20
points.

Nearly Tripled

TAIPEI, Formosa - NC) -
An extraordinary growth of
the Church has been reported
in the Apostolic Prefecture of
Hua Lien, where the number
of Catholics has all but trebled
in a twelve-month period.
According to official figur-
es for the year from June, 1853
to June, 1854, the number of
baptized Catholics increased from
906 to 2,422-a gain of 1916.
The figures were released by
Bishop Andre-Jean Verineux, of
the Paris Foreign Missions, red
ousted Ordinary of Yingkow, who
is now Apostolic Administrator of
the Hua Lien prefecture. The pre-
lecture was established in 1852
and is staffed by Paris Foreign
missionaries, assisted by a group
of Bethlehem Fathers.
There are only Is priests in the
whole prefecture, IL foreign and
three Chinese. In order to cope
with the great numbers seeking
instructions, the number of cate
chiSts was increased during the
year from three to 81. Last June,
there were 6,967 catechumens, or
persons registered to take instruc-
ton. Sisters helping the priests in
the Prefecture number only nine.
