OIL PROGRESS WEEK
OCTOBER 14-20
«P3
Oil Progress
means more
to Texans f
I his week the United States will focus its attention
on the oil industry's contributions to the high American
standard of living, to the nation's industrial progress, and
to the national defense. This is Oil Progress Week.
Texans know the story well: as home folks in the
oil country, they share the oil industry's pride in supply-
ing the resource that powers a major share of the
country's industries, all its airplanes and automobiles,
most of its ships and trains.
Texans realize, moreover, that oil's progress means
even more to them than it does to many other Americans.
For example, the value of the crude oil produced in South
Texas'• in 1950 was over $400 million. This is not "boom
money." South Texas'uses it to pay taxes, salaries and
wages; it buys homes, groceries, light and heat; doctors

collect a portion of it; landowners receive royalty and
lease payments; a sizable portion of it is reinvested in
the further development of the region's oil resources.
In a word, the progressive development of the
petroleum resources of South Texas has enormously stimu-
lated its thriving industrial, commercial and agricultural
development, and this is the more, the plus, that oil's
progress means to South Texans. Modern, efficient, pro-
duction practices will conserve the oil and gas resources
of the region, and oil's progress will continue to mean
more to South Texas for many years ahead.
