Bureau MOdifies
August Forecast

Washington - The Bureau of
Mines, Department of the Interior,
has modified it's August forecast
on anticipated demand for domes-
tic crude oil following President
Eisenhower's approval July 20 of
recommendations made by a spec
ial committee to investigate crude
oil imports.
The committee recommended that
crude oil imports be held to IL
per cent of domestic production.
The bureaus original demand
forecast Of 100000 barrels per
day of domestic crude for August
was based on expected imports of
100000 barrels daily.
President Eisenhower's recon-
mendation that imports in the
last half of 1857 and the first
half of 1858 be reduced to 1,031,-
900 barrels daily will increase the
August demand for domestic crude,
it was explained.
The amount of increased demand
will be contingent upon the extent
to which importing companies are
able to hold their August imports
below 100000 barrels daily, the
bureau pointed out. If August i'm
ports should drop to the 1881, 900
barrels per day ceiling recommend
ed, August demand for domestic
crude would be 100000 barrels
daily, the bureau added.

Sinclair Earnings
Decline Slightly

= New York - Consolidated net
income of Sinclair Oil Corporation
and subsidiaries for the first half
of 1857 amounted to $44,848,197,
according to P. C. Spencer, presi-
dent.
These earnings compare with
$45,103,719 earned from regular
operations in the corresponding
period of 1856, which was the best
: such period in the company's his
! tory, the report stated.
With the average number Of
shares outstanding substantially
increased during the first half Of
1857 by conversions of the COM
pany's 8 ia per cent debentures,
which were called for redemption
last January. earnings per share
were equivalent to $2.93. This
! figure compares with the per-share
equivalent of $40 for the first six
months of 1866.
A number of factors encountered
in the second quarter erased the
! gain in earnings made in the first
quarter of 1857, stockholders were
told. These factors included sharp
cuts in allowable crude oil produc-
ton, lower domestic demands for
finished products and higher costs
of doing business, including higher
labor costs resulting from a new
wage agreement.
Net production in the United
States and Canada of crude oil and
natural gas liquids averaged 1907
$50 barrels daily, per cent gain
over daily average production for
the corresponding period of 1866.
Net daily production of the COM
pany's 96.2 per cent owned SUBJ
sidiary - Venezuelan Petroleum
Company - averaged 20,772 bar
rcls, down 1905 barrels daily COM
pared with the first half of 1856.
Sinclair's crude runs at its do
nestle refineries averaged 49,, 374
barrels daily for the first six
months of 1857, 1.3 percent below
the corresponding period Of last
year. Sales Of finished products
amounted to 3,499 million gallons,
off four-tenths of one per cent
from the comparable 1856 period.
Sinclair "is vitality interested in
the current controversy regarding
imports of crude OIL" Spencer told
+ stockholders. He stated that the
country's long-term needs can not
economically be met solely from
domestic resources, but that the
United States must import crude
oil in progressively increasing
quantities.
"Any solution to the import prob
lem must provide for a balanced
and realistic program of imports
without inflexible restrictions"
Spencer said.

Predict Increased Petroleum Needs
For Final Four Months This Year

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-(Spe-
ciaD-Demand for domestic cr.de
oil is expected to average about
100000 barrels daily during the
last four months of this year, an
increase of 100000 barrels daily
above the same period in 1856, the
Independent Petroleum Association
Of America said today in its
monthly Supply and Demand Out
look.
The national oil industry asso-
citation cautioned, however, that
this increased market could be
delayed until (a) seasonal increase
in demands improve the inventory
situation, and (b) imports of for
eign crude are reduced to levels
recommended (by Presidents Cab
met Committee last month";"
Total petroleum demand during
the latest three months, May-July,
the Association pointed out, failed
to reach anticipated levels. "Aver-
age for the period was 8,65O,OOO
barrels daily" in increase of 1885,
900 barrels daily or 1.5 percent
over the corresponding months
alst year. However, this was $780,
900 barrels daily, or 2.8 percent
below amount forecast by the
IPAA Supply and Demand Com
mittee.

the last four months of the year,

Florida City, August IL - Con-

Cities Service Net
Sets Record Level

New York-Net income of Cities
Service Co. and subsidiaries reach
ed new high record of $36, 315, 900
in the first half of 1857, w. Alton
Jones, chairman of the board, re-
ports. This is an increase of 1914
per cent over the $50, 405, 900
earned in the first half of 1856.
On the basis of shares outstand-
F.: ing at the end of the respective
periods, net income in the first
six months of 1867 equaled 1882
per share, as against 1901 per
share in the same period of last
year.
Sales of products and services
also set new mark of $547 $3.50 900,
as compared with $497, 931 900 in
the first half of 1856, Jones said.
Gross production of crude oil
and other petroleum liquids in
creased to 141 200 barrels per day,
as compared with 132,4O0 barrels
per day in the first half of 1856.

tions, will be approximately g.

ton said. This would be an in,
crease of $4,000 barrels daily or
6 percent, above the same period
in 1866 when the weather was
warmer than normal.
Exports are expected to aver
age about 100000 barrels daily
during this four-month period
down. 275,000 barrels daily from
the same period last year when
the Suez Canal was closed" Thus
the net result would be a total de-
mand averaging about 9,73O, 900
barrels daily, an increase of 275,-
900 barrels daily or 2.s percent,
IPAA said.
The Association estimated total
inventories on July 81 of 819 mil
lion barrels, 81 million barrels
higher than July 81, 1856, and At
million barrels above the level fore
cast by the IPAA Supply and De-
mand Committee.
Analysing the import limitation
program approved by President
Eisenhower July 20, the Associa-
ton stated that in order to obtain
crude oil import level of $780,
900 barrels daily for the last half
of the year imports would have to
be reduced to an average 945, 900
barrels daily during the last four
months, September December. This
assumes crude oil import level for
July and August would average
100000 barrels daily as previous
ly scheduled by importers.
