Oil Producers See Attacks As Part of Socialization Plan 4? By ELMER C. WALZER Uniled Press Fiancial Editor New York OP) The independ ent oil producers of the nation are a hardy lot and each one has r7PTTFl . own opin io ions on the VI 111UUOU J But they agree there ought to be some common ground for im proving the i n W n c t iv r L2!tm prevent what xhner Vvaizer they seem to (Igree is the worst thing facing the oil industry. In an advertisement in the Houston papers they set forth this year as a fight against the industry "to divide, cripple and 'finally destroy the industry. Hfcent Attacks They see recent attacks on the oil industry "as but a part of a larger plan to divide and con quer aimed at the eventual na tionalization and socialization of all industry." The oil men of Texas feel the gas industry already is socialized under the rulings of the Federal Power commission which has the power to fix prices in inter state commerce. Just now Texas oil wells are allowed to operate 12 days a month, a severe blow to the wildcatters who use the income from their wells to pay their bank loans. The daily allowable, however, is higher than it was a year ago, and even with fewer days of output the total production so far this year is not much under the level of a year ago. But it still hurts the well drillers and fewer wells are being drilled. Views Situation As Wall Street views the oil situtaion, the reduction in out put is not unfavorable since it is helping reduce heavy inven tories of oil products. There has been a smaller gain over all in use of petroleum this year compared with ,1956 be cause of many factors, including a dip in industry generally, a slowing in new housing and so on. Wall Street regards the moves of the independent producers to resolve their differences and take a united stand, as their ad vertisement urged, as a highly favorable development for the industry as a whole. The street believes the stiff competition within the industry will continue and thus offset the moves of politicians who call it a monopoly.

California o MEDFORDjfei Tribune 2nd Section MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1957 12 PAGES Oregon's First Youth Conference Expected to Draw 300 HS Students By DICK HUMPHREY United Press Correspondent Salem (IP) Oregon's first Youth Conference is expected to draw about 300 high school students here Nov. 30 to work on and approve a model code of conduct for high school students. The one-day conference is the outgrowth of plans by the gov ernor's state committee on chil dren and youth under the chair manship of Mrs. William Kletzer, Portland. Mrs. Kletzer, here laying groundwork for the meeting, said high school youth around the state have been working on the code for some time. It is adapted from a Minnesota youth code and covers such im portant teenage topics at dating, hours, driving, drinking and smoking. Mrs. Kletzer firmly believes it is only about five per cent of the nation's teenagers who make headlines with violence and delinquent behavior. Main Aims Drawn She says this minority smears the other 95 per cent who are engaged in more constructive if less sensational pursuits. And she hopes the Salem conference will show the othe side of the coin. The teenagers will be left pretty much on their own to thrash out the code, but its ma jor outlines have already been tentatively drawn. Some major points: The home should be the center of social activity with the sup port of parents. The home should also be used frequently for dating. With par ents providing some measure of privacy. Too much public enter tainment is expensive. Getting home after a date should depend on when a social affair is over and how much time it will reasonably take to get back. But parents should know where their sons and daughters are and have an Number of Housing Units Shows Decline Chicago (IP) The number of private housing units being built in the United States for the first half of- 1957 dropped 16 per cent, the United States Savings and Loan League announced. The league said, however, that the rate of home building picked up during the summer and that even with the six-month drop-off nearly one million homes have been started. League analysts said the coun try's approximately 6,000 sav ings and loan associations fi nanced about 39 per cent of all homes built or sold. They said only 35 per cent of the transac tions were handled by savings anft loan associations last year. 12 Minutes Work Will Buy Pound of Turkey Corvallis (IP) The average worker in Oregon will have to work only 12 minutes to pay for each pound of Thanksgiving tur key his family eats this year. In 1947 he would have had to work nearly half an hour for the same amount of holiday bird. Those statistics were comput ed by Noel Bennion, Oregon State college poultry specialist. He attributes the low cost of turkeys this year to three things An unusually large supply of birds, efficiency of production, and automation in processing. Those benefits, he said, are be ing passed on to the consumer this year. agreement on the time of return. Local curfews should also be observed in Oregon that means youths under 18 should be off the street and out of public places by midnight. The deadline on school nights should be 10 p.m. Law Bans Tobacco Driving should depend upon possession of a license, proof of ability to control the car and a healthy attitude towards the rights and lives of others. Train ed instruction is urged. As far as drinking goes, the code says no one has the moral or legal right to serve any alco holic beverage to other people's children. Oregon law also pro hibits minors having liquor from whatever source. The law also prohibits sale of cigarettes and tobacco to per sons under 18 and prohibits them from smoking except in their homes and with parents' consent. The code makes the general point that high school students and their parents should inform each other of their whereabouts when away, from home. And if a young person is delayed for any reason, he should telephone home. When details of the code have been worked out, it will be pre sented to Gov. Robert D. Holmes. Pupils Would Have Students Grouped Santa Barbara, Calif. (IP) California's brightest teenagers want to see high school students grouped according to intellec tual ability. Meeting in workshop sessions, the Junior Statesmen passed a resolution , in the 55-member legislature conducted under an adopted constitution ' and par liamentary procedures to that effect. These young people feel that rnrripuliiTnc ar ronniromAnte 1 geared to abilities of the aver age student result in inadequate preparation for the whole group. "The students with less ability have an easier time of it; and those with greater ability and interest can go on into such study, as, in English classes, Chaucer and Shakespeare," said Sylvia Hollis of Berkeley Hi school. The author of the resolution, Maxine Kane, said many upper grade students form bad habils because assignments are too easy and readily completed. "In one English class we dii casual little things like finding a subject and a verb things I learned in the seventh grade," she said. "They group, football players, why not other students?"
