(JPh~Encouraged by reduced production in the east Texas field and strengthening of the Texas railroad commission’s j position in a legal way as en forcer of proration regulations, oil men looked forward today to hign er price levels in July.

The latest “break” for the com mission was a three-judge federal court decision handed down July 1 at Amarillo in which the Dan ciger oil company was denied an injunction upsetting the commis sion’s proration control of the Panhandle field. * ' “ Mother of Valley Woman Dies Tuesday (Special to Phe Herald) HARLINGEN, July 5. — Funeral arrangements had not been com pleted this morning for Mrs. J..
