Urge New Look At Anti I rust Laws
To Aid Excess Refining Problem

Atlantic City, N. 1.-THE Eisen-
hover administration has been
urged to take a "New Look" at
the antitrust laws, because they
are hamstringing the oil industry's
efforts to solve it's No. problem
excessive refining capacity.
The plea for federal action was
made anew at the National Pc
troleum Associations SIND annual
meeting in Hotel Traymore by its
president, A. w. Scott, of Oil City
Pa. Scott, who is president of
VOLTS Head Oil Refining Co.,
made his call in an address of well
come to the 1000 or more persons
attending the annual meeting.
The problem of refining capacity
is not new, Scott noted. He called
attention to the address made last
spring by P. c. Spencer, president
of Sinclair Oil Corp, New York,
and continued:
"Mr. Spencer suggested that the
government take a fresh look at
the enforcement of the antitrust
laws and give consideration to
some plan which would make it
possible to maintain the reserve
refining capacity which we would
need in the event of another
emergency instead of using it in a
destructive, uneconomic manner
and also instead of using it for the
purpose of eliminating some of

the existing refining capacity.
"The Justice Department appar-
emily has turned deaf ear to any
such suggestions. In fact, only
a few weeks ago one of the trade
papears reported that some offic-
ials of the Justic Department were
disturbed by the cutbacks in re-
finery runs made by individual
companies which were unable to
find a market for their products.
Yet one of the underlying purposes
of our antitrust laws is to main
tain a healthy competitive indus
try"
Scott also stated that "the pos
sibility of an atomic war raises
another consideration which may
soon transcend all others in i'm
portance; that is the necessity to
dispense our essential industries
so that our nation cannot be Grip
pied by one or two stealthy blows"
He added:
However, the plain fact is that
we are preparing to meet the
threat of an atomic war on the
basis of depending on a petroleum
refining industry nearly twice as
big as the industry which we had
at the beginning of World War II
but which, because of its concen-
tration, is now 38 per cent more
vulnerable to attacks upon our
great industrial communities.
