Burleson Opposes
Decontrol of Oil
For Homes Imports
WASHINGTON - Congress-
man Omar Burleson said to-
day that he had contacted the
Honorable Stewart L. Udall
secretary of Ihe interior, urging
him to resist pressures of mem
bers of the House and Senate
from the New England States
to decontrol imports of home
heating oil.
Representative Burleson stat-
ed that ihe facts do not support
the contention of these mem-
bers that the East Coast faces
s major shortage of No. 2
heating oil this winter. "The
record clearly shows that the
domestic supply of this oil is in-
creasing instead of decreasing.
The supply on the East Coast,
and for that matter the entire
country, is keeping pace with
the demand," Burleson advised
Udall.
Congressman Burleson point-
ed out that Information avail-
able from the department of
interior shows that stocks of
home heating fuel on the East
Coast are in greater supply
than last year He continued,
"To compensate for the dis-
ruptive conditions caused by
the Middle East crisis, the do-
mestic industry has filled the
gap and is able to produce and
deliver adequate supplies.
There is no doubt in my mind
»hat your ''eparment will l>e
Justified In resisting these ef-
forts to decontrol heating oil."
