Standard oil Co. of California

Net earnings mounted to
31S,7sl.OOo. or seven per cent

this was equivalent to $500 a

Sales ana other operating
revenues exceeded $2.5 billion
for the first time. Production
In the Western Hemisphere was
the highest in company history

The company reported IL

wells out Of 90 tries, discovering
IL new oil and gas fields and
o new pools in known fields.
Among principal discoveries
were new fields at Rio Zulia,
Colombia, and at Snipe Lake,
Alberta, Canada. The latter is
regarded as the most important
discovery by the Canadian in
dustry last year.
More than 1900 successful

Silver Currency Policy
May Boost Metal Price

gress to free it Of issuing 81
and 50 bills backed by silver
reserves because it needs its
silver stock for coinage. The
demand for silver coins rises in
the vending machine and turn
stile age.
If it must keep the silver re-
serve, the Treasury says 1t soon
will have to compete in the
market for metal to make more
coins. This added demand
would tend to send the price
up. And when the market price
Of silver equals or exceeds the
value of the metal backing 81
bills, these could be turned in
for silver and the Treasury's
reserves would fade.
Silver -fabricators naturally
don't like to see the price rise.
nor do they relish competing
with the Treasury for the avail
able supply.
Production has fallen off be-
cause much of it is a by-product
Of the mining of lead and zinc.
This has been in low gear for
months.
Some comes as a by-product
Of copper mining. Arizona's
newly developed Mission and
Christmas mines have silver
bearing copper ore and this has
helped that State raise its sill
YER output. But declining pro-
duction elsewhere more than
wiped out the gains in Arizona
and Idaho.
A downtrend in the United
States has been underway since
the middle of 1862, after a brief
squirt earlier in the year.
Part Of the gap between world
production and demand was
filled last year by metal sold by
spectators abroad, whole hold
lngs had been variously esti-
mated from so to rs million
ounces. Much of this was be-
lieved supplied by Communist
China. Some now estimate that
speculative boards may have
shrunk to is million ounces.
The gap between consump-
ton in the United States alone
ran to around 100 million
ounces last year. It was filled
by imports-at rising prices.

But these cases do not neces-
sarily provide an adequate pic
ture OF the whole "caper." The
indications are that the thief
first sells the securities in the
underworld at a fraction of
their face value. The stocks and
bonds may change hands sew

the surface.
In some cases, known hood

Associated Press Business News ANALYST
NEW YORK. - Silver users
say that II United States 81
bills continue to be backed by
silver the price of the metal for
consumer and industrial use
may rise still higher-and so
may the cost of wedding gifts
and electronic gadgets.
They have joined the United
States Treasury in urging that
the present silver-backed 81
and 50 bills be withdrawn in
favor of currency issued by the
Federal Reserve Banks.
Users pleas that Treasury
reserves be released for coinage
purposes 50 the Government
won't enter the already crowded
metal market came as the price
Of silver rose to $1,28 an ounce
in New York Wednesday and
held at S1L284 In London, up
81 cents lin a week. It has
steadily crept nearer the 81 .2929
value which the Treasury puts
on its reserve stocks.
At the same time the United
States Bureau Of Mines was re-
porting that total silver produc-
ton In this country in January
fell Q per cent behind the year
ago figure. despite gains in
ARIZONA and Idaho.
The decline In United States
and world production in recent
months and the reluctance Of
Mexico to put too much Of its
silver on the New York market
have helped pinch supplies. The
pinch started in November, 1861
when the Omitted States Treas
ury stopped selling silver to in
dustrial Users at the then Of
fetal price Of 9i.62 cents an
ounce. From then till the pres
emit the price of silver has
climbed 40 per cent in London.
Usage has been up along with
prices. Consumer demand for
household silver articles and
for jeRelry has held high. But
the big gain has been in cleo
tronics and other industrial
fields. including those linked
with the space age, where the
metal has found new and ex-
panding markets.

The Justice Department is
making an intensive study to-
determine whether the crime
syndicate" is involved in a.
rash Of thefts of stocks and
bonds.
SO far, says Assistant Attor-
ney General Herbert j. Miller,
jr., the survey shows that some
persons known to be in organ
lied crime are involved"
In an interview, Mr.. Miller
noted, however, that no proof
has been developed that organ
ICED crime was behind seven
major stock thefts reported
during the last two years.
Stocks and bonds valued at
$7,935,809 were taken in the
thefts. which date back to
April, 1861.
Mr.. Miller, head of the De-
partment's Criminal Division,
said the investigation still is
open. He indicated a break"
could possibly pinpoint organ
lied crime in the thefts but. so
far, chances do not look good.
The investigation has turned
up some individuals who were
picked up trying to dispose Of
stocks taken in more than one
theft.
IAN this proves" said Mr..
Miller, sis that the underworld
knows of individuals with a ca
pacity to pass stolen stocks and
bonds"
Missing from the picture is
the link between those who &C
tually stole the stocks and
those who are trying to peddle
them.
Major Stock Thefts
In making its investigation,
the departments combed the
records Of these major stock
thefts:
Between December /. 1861,
and July 10, 1862, some $751;
900 in securities were looted
from the New York brokerage
firm Of Sutro Bros. Co.
On April 81, 1861, burglars
took a safe containing $685.
