July Home Boom
Biggest in History
Washington, Aug. 21 U.
The bureau of labor statistics
said today that July was the
best homebuilding month in
history.
The bureau said the sustained
housing boom this summer has
been helped by builders' efforts
to start construction before
prices rise further and before
materials became scarce.
A survey by the bureau show
ed that 144,000 new non-farm
dwelling units were started last
month. The year's total so far
is 839,000.
Each month of the year, home-
builders have broken records
for comparable months in pre
vious years. By the end of July,
new housing activity was 54 per
cent over last year's volume,
the survey showed.

Home Units, Salem 13,971

The state of Oregon has ap
proximately 526,000 units, Roy
V. Peel, director of the bureau
of the census, said in Washington.
The preliminady count on hous
ing was based on April 1, 1950,

322 New Oil Wells Produce
In Alberta Fields This Year
Calgary, Alta., Aug. 21 U.FD Indicative of the tremendously
increased activity in Alberta oil fields this year over 1949 was
a petroleum and natural gas conservation board report which
said that in the first six months of 1950, 322 new wells went
into production.
In 1949, only 228 new wells
25 percent less than this year
were brought in over the same
period.
Oil production was up more
than 2,500,000 barrels.
During the first six months of
1949, Alberta fields turned out
8,931,207 barrels of crude, while
this year, production: to the end
of June was 11,563,818 barrels.

advertised lines for all depart
ments, featuring particularly in

its discovery, had an estimated
reserve of 125,000,000 barrels.
Today, it had about 25,000,000
barrels left. And that, in the
oil industry, is considered not
much more than a drop in the
bucket.
Among the semi-annual fig
ures released by the board to
day was the fact that the six
months ending June, 1950, 14
new gas producers were brought
in, as compared to only four dur
ing the same period last year.
The petroleum and natural
gas conservation board has un
der consideration several appli
cations for permissions to export
gas to the American and Cana
dian west coast. Alberta had
been estimated to have gas re
serves of some 12,000,000,000,
000 cubic feet. The board was
trying to decide whether there
was enough gas to serve Alberta
for the next 50 years, and for
export, too.
Meanwhile, the companies
were having to contend with a
severe pipe shortage as the Ko
rean war had started a stamped
among steel users, and oil pip
was very scarce, the board reported.
