BAUSON, Copyright 1113'-, Publishers Finan cial Bureau. Babson Park, Mass., June 11. —Clea signs us improvement in the oil in (lustry are (1) A new spirit of co operation between producers is re placing the former excessive greed ine-.s. with the result that productioi has been brought under control. <2 I'nder the more stable production con ditlons crude oil prices have advance* 117 per cent and gasoline has ad vanced 20 per cent since the ruinous ly low prices of last summer. (3) Re fleeting this improvement, oil secun ties have held up much better that any other group during the last si: months. As I write this the oil aver age is five per cent below its last De rernber low, whereas the Dow-Jone industrial average is 26 per cent be low. <-l j Gasoline demand is runninj about 40,000 barrels daily greater thai the new supply. The troubles of the oil business havi always been more Internal than ex ternal It has suffered more from sel fish and uneconomic practices withit the industry itself than it has fron .general business depression. The greiw hazard has been recurring periods o wasteful over-production with violent price rutting, all due to greed, se! fishness, and unethical methods. If as seems likely from recent develop _ merits, the industry has learned it. lesson and is beginning to substitutr v.und ethical practices for the forme greediness and wastefulness, it ma; be on the threshold of more stabli prosperity than it has yet known. Th< oils never fully shared In the pros perity of 1928 and 1929 and wen among the first to be hit in the de pression. However, having had theii depression first they may now be th< first to recover. Fundamentals Are More Sound. The recent decision of the Unite* States Supreme Court upholding th* Oklahoma oil conservation law is ; very important constructive factor. 1 means also that the Texas proratior case will probably be decided in thi same way, and puts the legal stamp of approval on controlled production The California situation ts much bet ter. with daily output rapidly being reduced to the quota set by the state oil umpire. Hence, fundamentally the industry appears in better shape than it has for several years. Crude oil at an average price of 87 cents a barrel against an average of 40 cents last July, and gasoline at 13 cents a gallon 108 cents last year mean the companies have much better chances for profits in 1932 . Recent oil mergers differ from the general merger movement back in the boom times in that they are being made for sound economic reasons ra ther than for speculative profit. The effort in these recent consolidations is to build up well-rounded organiza tions, in order to maintain a good balance between producing, refining and marketing facilities. This leads to worthwhile economies from which both the industry and the consumers must ultimately benefit. It also tends to segregate into fewer hands the rc aponaibility for regulating production in accordance with the demand. It is neither to the interest of. the con sumer nor the producer, through reck less overproduction, to waste our StfrtMifrfts CITY LEAGUE Club W L Pci Lions 3 0 1.000 M P Baraca 3 0 1.000 Clements 3 0 1.000 1 2 .333 M E Bara caa 1 2 .333 Wall Street 1 2 .333 KJwanos 0 3 .000 Post Office 0 3 . 000 PIEDMONT LEAGUE Club W.

A large enroll nent is expected for the State Co! ege Summer School which opens '■fonday, June 13. with the registration f all classifications of students.

Although the School will darw most >f Its enrollment from teachers and •ollege students, many high school r raduates who are planning on en ering college next fall are expected o enroll valuable oil resources, which, though great, may some time in the future be just as scarce as they are now plenti ful. Future Growth Assured. It is foolish to suppose that even major depressions such as the pre sent. can permanently check the eco nomic progress of our industries. Moreover, the petroleum industry has been favored by a much more stable demand during the hard times than have many other industries. Gasoline consumption was only six per cent lower in the first four months of 1932 han in the same period of 1931. Twenty-three million automobiles con tinue to operate on our highways. Oil furnaces and range burners con tinue to be installed in large num bers. More and more steamships aa*i equipment. As aviation continues its amazing growth there is added an other large consumer of oil and gas oline. Practically every industry is dependent for some part of its op eration. The wiser heads in the industry' locomotives are turning to oil-burning have finally prevailed, and by sub stituting cooperative control for ruth less and uneconomic waste of these create natural resources are building i foundation for more permanent prosperity. Not only through curtail ing operations the leading companies have placed themselves in a much more sound position. The period cf heavy capital expenditures has ceased. The industry now has a very small burden of debt. With a comparatively stable demand, low fixed charges, and with prospects of inventory profits rather than inventory losses, the oil business is in a good fundamental position for improvement. This, how ever, depends absolutely on maintain ing a spirit or cooperation on the pail of those engaged in the industry, and not seeking to take unfair advantage >f their competitors or of the public. General business as measured by ’he Babsonchart is now 40 per cent below the normal XfY Line v compared with 38 per cent a month.'''ago, even with adjustments for usual seasonul movements.
