The oil producer must dispose of oil as fast as it flows from the wells. “Wild-catting” goes on continually by individuals^who are not so much concerned with production as with the discovery of new’ reverses. When they make a lucky “strike,” as the Los Angeles basin in 1923, or the Smack-over “deep sand” field this spring, t[he industry may Be in a position of actual overproduction, nevertheless there is a rush of drillers to the new territory and the situation is thrown more out of balance. The condition of affairs in the production and distribution of oil is best guarantee the American ‘ people have against monopoly and the industry should be left free to develop in a normal manner as in the past. o SEVERE WINTER PREDICTED ’ The winter of 1926, will be the worst in 216 years; according to a paper read before the Academy of Science in Paris by Professor Bigourdan. The paper covered 744 years of meteorological and astronomical conclusions. It was said that the coming winter would compare with the terrible winters of 1709 and 1523. ; o See Colleen Moore and John Bowers in “So Big?’, Edna Ferber’s master,piece.
