plained here the other day why
the major oil companies were
unable to co-opcrate successfully
in the oil for Britain day Sun-

panies would have been glad to
donate the day's run to the
British, but that one-eighth roy-
alty in the oil is owned by in-
dividuals whose consent would
have been necessary to give
away the oil. It would have been
an impossible task to Secure eon- w
