OIL REFINERS BALK Refuse to Boost Prices to $1 Steady. By United Press AUSTIN, Tex., Aug. 28.—Contradictory testimony on the need for curtailing oil production to conserve resources was offered the Texas railroad commission today as purchasing companies refused to boost prices pending new proration orders. Although reserves are dwindling rapidly refiners refused to meet the $1 price demanded when Governor W. H. Murray of Oklahoma closed the Oklahoma flush fields. They hoped enough oil can be produced under the new Texas order that no price increases will be needed. Most producers, however, hope the new order will allow not more than 300.000 barrels to be produced daily from the east Texas field, where 700,000 barrels were produced daily when Governor Ross Sterling closed it. If 300,000 barrels is set as the maximum, the price will go up, they say.
