that Texas was permitting many
exceptions to its order closing oil
fields for 15 days, Chairman Er-

state Oil Compact Commission
today sent denials to the Govern-

Fort Worth, president of the In-

The message said:
“In order that any rumors to
the contrary may be promptly
stopped I wish to state to you
that it is the intention and older
of the Railroad Commission of
Texas to exempt from the oil
shut-down order only those wells
that have such a high water pro-
duction with the oil that to shut
them in completely would kill the
well and cause waste, also only
those weds from which natural
gas is being produced with the
oil and where the natural gas
from those particular wells is
being furnished for cooking and
domestic use where no other
source of gas is easily Available.
The reason for this telegram is
that rumors have reached us
from other States that represen-
tations were being made to the
effect that Texas was letting wells
other than these operate. Will
you please inform your regula-
tory body of this telegram.”

BY UNITED PRESS
Germany’s quarrel with Poland
reached the stage today of a
v icient press campaign against
Polish “atrocities” on Germans
and Nazi warnings that settlement
of the Danzig problem is now
possibly a matter of days.
The most significant attack was
contained in the Essen National
Zeitung, personal organ of Field
Marshal Hermann Wilhelm Goer-
ing, Nazi No. 2, which stated that
"the Polish government is no
longer in a position to control the
See NO. 1 on Page 12
Raich will have to protect the
German minority in the Polish
l rovince.
The inspired press, under
screaming headlines, described
also the "terrorism” against the
German Danzig majority and in-
dicated that it might be necessary
for Germany to intervene.
No hint was given as to the
nature of the "intervention.”
Poland professed to be un-
daunted by the German attacks.
The Polish press and political
quarters declared Poland will
fight if attacked, or if there is
violence in Danzig.
There was every indication that
Britain and France are determined
t fight with Poland if Danzig
is seized by force. The danger of
a general war thus depended on
whether Germany maintains her
adamant demand for the return
of Danzig and the Polish corridor
without compromise, and Poland
holds to her steadfast refusal to
surrender either.
Point was given to Britain’s
attitude when she started the
final drafting of a binding mili-
tary alliance with Poland, replac-
ing th? temporary guarantee given
alter the dismemberment of
Czechoslovakia.
Then (last March 31) Prime
Miiuste? Neville Chauberlain an-
nounced: ,
"In the event of any action
which clearly threatened Polish
independence, and which the Po-
lish government accordingly con-
sidereu it vital to resist with their
national forces, His Majesty’s
government would feel themselves
bound at nce to lend the Polish
government all support in their
power.”
The proposed new pact is much
more specific and binding. As
reported in London, it would be
effective for five years. It would
concern not only direct but in-
direct aggression against Poland,
that is, an attack on neighboring
States which Poland would con-
sider a menace to her security.
Also, it was stated, Britain
would give an unprecedented
guarantee to assist Poland if a
foreign power—obviously Ger-
many—attempted to dominate her
economic life.
The Rome, press was far milder
in tone than the German, but
intimated that Italy would be on
Germany’s side in any general
conflict over Danzig. The papers
expressed the belief that the situa-
tion is reaching its climax.
Paris had the interesting theory
that perhaps Italy might remain
neutral in a war.
A secondard dispute arose in
Europe today when Rumania pro-
tested sharply to Hungary against
a border clash in which two Ru-
manian soldiers were reported
killed. The incident sharpened the
friction between the two coun-
tries over Hungary’s apparent de-
zire to recover the territory in
Transylvania which Rumania ac-
quired after the World War.
In the Orient, the anti-British
campaign was intensified. The
Japanese Dome! news agency re-
ported that a boycott had been
declared on British goods at
Kaifeng, Important commercial
center. ATI gods not sold by
Sept 30 will be confiscated,
Dome! said.
WPA Worker and

Pelican Oil and Gasoline Corpo-
ration produced nearly a half
million barrels of oil and sold it
to a pipeline owned by Burford.
Testimony has indicated that
Weiss received $48,000 as a com-
mission for helping arrange the
deal, and later obtained $100,000
as a commission when Burford
sold the pipeline, and that part of
this money eventually was paid
to Leche.
“Burford was the promoter and
Weise the engineer for this
scheme to steal oil,” Rogge
charged. “He is not as respon-
sible ns Weiss and Leche, but he
is still reprehensible.
“Burford has not told all he
knows about these transactions.
“After the transportation of oil
was stopped by a Federal court,
that pipeline became a ‘white ele-
phant," but with the aid of Weiss
it was sold to United Gas for the
royal sum of $950,000.”
Will Harris and Dillard Estes,
attorneys for Burford, argued be-
fore Federal Judge T. Whit Dav-
idson that the indictment against
Burford, Weiss and Leche failed
to set up a Federal offense. Bur-
ford, who discussed the transac-
tions in detail when he was on
the stand several days ago, in-
sisted that his actions were in
accordance with Louisiana and
Federal laws. ■ X
“To return this defendant, who
has committed no crime, to a
State that is known to be a caul-
dron of partisan politics, torn by
warring factions, where bitterness
is extreme, would be sending an
innocent man into a lion’s den,”
Harris said.
Rogge referred in his argu-
ments to various persons involved
in Louisiana politics and the oil
industry. Among them were Dr.

■
TULSA, Okla. (UP) — Prices
for motor fuels advanced an eighth
of a cent a gallon at refineries to-
day as natural gasoline supplies
dwindled rapidly in the shutdown
midcontinent area...........................
Oil company officials said gaso-
line prices at filling stations had
not increased.
The price for top grade gasoline
was 5 cents a gallon. Natural
was bringing about four cents a
gallon.
Only a few scattered shipments
of natural gasoline were reported
in contrast with last week when
thousands of railroad tank "cars
moved to buyers.
Without natural gasoline to
blend with their gas made from
crude oil, refiners said they would
be forced to turn out an inferiqr
product. Additional of natural gas
to the crude oil product raised its
anti-knock quality, refiners as-
serted.
Other developments:
1—President H. C. Weiss of
Humble Oil and Refining Co.,
Houston, charged that competi-
tion chiefly from cut price Illinois
and Louisiana crude oil compelled
the company to make its original
price cut.
2— Sinclair Prairie Oil Market-
ing Co., which instituted the price
cut, issued a statement announc-
ing it had discontinued posting a
schedule of prices it would pay.
3—State troopers in the Schuler
field of Southwestern Arkansas
enforced the Arkansas Oil and Gas
Commission's shutdown orders
which Lion Oil & Refining Co.,
refused to follow.
4—Six states, Oklahoma, Texas,
New Mexico, Louisiana, Arkansas,
and Kansas, were enforcing a
rigid shutdown order which in
most cases was reported “100 per
cent effective.”
Chief puzzle today was the Sin-
clair-Prairie announcement. Com-
pany headquarters here refused to
amplify the tsatement which read:
"Sinclair-Prairie Oil Marketing
i Co., announces that effective 7
A. M. August 18, 1939, it would,
until further notice, discontinue
posting the price that it would
pay for crude oil in the states of
Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico
and Kansas.
Refiners predicted that the
shortage of natural gasoline would
be felt by the motorists in several
weeks. Gasoline being made now
for shipments to northern states,
they said, does not contain enough
natural gas to give it the volatility
it will heed when it is sold about
mid-September.
Lion Oil Company's refusal to
shut down its wells after the
State Commission had ordered
closing prompted Gov. Carl E.
Bailey to move National Guards-
men into the Schuler area to en-
force the order. President T. H.
Barton of the Lion Company said
he would seek an injunction in
superior court against the shut-
down order.

then said there is a practical
limit—just where he did sanok
know.
Blalock then had Mooreized
figures from the chart of yol-
metric withdrawals, numbe. of
wells and pressures in the field
since 1932. This showed a drop
of 70 pounds in pressure with,an
average daily withdrawal a#
5,000,000 Barrela thgaugl- 670661
wells in 1932 and a drop' of only
five pounds in 1988 with an aver
age withdrawal of 609,060 bar
rels a day through 25,000 wells.
The Humble Company had con-
tended that more Wells were un*
needed to operate efficiently.
There was small attendance at
the hearing, most of the oil men
leaving to return here Aug. 28
for a State-wide oil hearing which
the Commission has ordered moved
up from Sept. 18.
The announcement of the am
vanced date for the State-wide
hearing took much of the interest
from the bearing that has been in
progress for two days of prora-
tion in East Texas, alone. This
hearing likely will be concludes
today.
In support of Humble Oil &
Refining Company’s application
for enlarged allowable production
from its leases in the East Texaa
field, Geologist I. I,. Sorenson
testified that while the company
was entitled to 14.3 per cent of
the field reserves, it had been al-
lowed to produce only at the rate
of 9.45 per cent of the field al-
lowable.
Moore testified that a well can
adequately drain 16 acres in the
field. He said that 6,660 wells
would be ample for the whole
field which already has 25,890
wells.
Humble’s call for greater pro-
duction on its leases led the Rail-
road Commission to call for hear
ing at the same time a proposal
that additional wells be authorized:
on the leases. Humble replied
that present wells are sufficient
but they should be allowed to
produce more oil.

ing without calling for witnessoil
