ship program, the subject of which
was “How To Reach The Practical
Needs Of The Church In Kermit,”
at the regular meeting of the Wo-
man’s Missionary Society of the
Community Church on Monday af-
ternoon.
Also participating in the program
was Mrs. H. B. Usry, who discussed
the practical needs of the church
in Kermit, and proposed, as a sug-
gestion, the advisability of a night

sionary Society, were a Sunday
school class for young married cou-
ples, and a class for business and
professional people.
Mrs. Jack Gullet spoke on the
subject of “Tithing” and Mrs. G. E.

A round table discussion on ways

Railroad Commissioner Jerry Sadler
this week issued a statement asking
the oil industry of Texas to send
representatives to the statewide
proration- hearing in Austin, to be
held on April 17th at which, he said,
the Commission will determine not
only the allowables for May, but
the future of the industry itself.
“All should turn their shoulders
to the wheel and deal with the is-
sue of proration as a statewide
problem,” Sadler said, “for such is
the Commission’s problem. Expert
advice, information and testimony
are needed in the place of criticism,
for evidently we are just at the
crossroads with serious phases to be
dealt with and Federal supervision
just around the corner unless there
is complete cooperation.”
Sadler’s statement went on to,
point out a number of problems
faced by the Commission in deter-
mining allowables and policies to
be followed in the interest of fair-
ness to all sections of the state pro-
ducing oil. He concluded with the
statement that at nearly every
meeting of the Commission, most
of the fields ask for increases in
allowables, but at the same time
fear over-production will hurt the
market. “So, unless we are careful,
the bird that lays the golden eggs
will be' killed in a useless contest
which has criticism as its key-
stone.”
