"Since the oil industry more than any other industry has been and is being built by people will ing to gamble their money and time to Jind oil. the main worry in the industry is that men of this caliber will not be available in the future." he says. "It is easy to see that the trend today is toward the phil osophy of being taken care of from the cradle to the grave. "This philosophy in many re spects has limited one's objective as well as one's initiative, both being necessary attributes in the oil industry. "Should this trend continue, the oil industry has something to wor ry about." But that is about all Ihe Texam Oil president finds in the worry list. He doesn't think there's too much competition from atomic energy which still faces many problems and costwise doesn't rate against oil for fuel. And he finds no shortage wor ries either. He likes to answer this wilh a quote from an Amer ican Petroleum Institute booklet: We have found enough oil in the last 58 years so that today. in spite of our increasing use of oil, these reserves are over t .1 times as great as they were in 1900. There is no way of telling what greater quantities are still to be discovered." He also notes that almost from the birth of the oil industry, the cry has been that we are running out of oil. So far these fears have not been realized, he says, and adds there is every prospect that for many years to come we shall continue to discover new oil de posits at a much greater rate than Ihey are taken from the ground. He bases this prediction on Ihe fact that there are a great many areas in the U. S. where geologists believe oil may possibly be found He believes the Middle East situation can be resolved when the injured feelings of the parties concerned are healed. His com pany is watching progress on oil possibilities in Alaska but not doing any leasing there at this time. Noting the success of Texam Oil Corp., he believes that the place of the small oil company in the economy while it may be precarious at times, is a definite asset to the nation. With the oil industry costs what they are, particularly in explora tion, Seeley believes that the small oil companies may he charged in the future with the major responsibility ol oil ex ploration while the majors do the marketing. The small oil companies contri bute imagination lo Ihe oil indus try, he says, and he looks for them to continue to do so. granted their leaders keep away from the oug ol paternalism. i it X i 'i ti v j t; hi .a s v-. t. a " V& V.'Ug?!-' .,,'.HJJ WORKERS AT CLEANUP of Fort Rock Cemetery included, from the left, Clifford McDonald and Keith Palmer of Bend, Roger Miles, Charles C.

Rifkind rdered a night session today if lecessary to wind up testimony in he Colorado River water suit. Rifkind had hoped lo end the re mittal phase of the case Wednes day biu Arizona upset his plans with a last-minute attack on Cal ifornia's claims about the lack of water in the Imperial Valley. When the trial resumed today, it appeared there was a minimum of four hours required before ad journment. Rifkind said he would order a night session if necessary to complete the case. Arizona filed 'the suit before the U. S. SuDreme Court in 1952 to quiet title fo 2,800.000 annual acre feet of Colorado River plus anoth er one million feet from the Gila River. If Arizona's claim is upheld. California stands to lose about one million acre feet from the 5.362.- OOO annual acre feet the latter state receives as its share of Col orado River water. Once the taking of testimony ends, the "real work" to quote Rifkind in the case will begin. That will be the preparing of briefs and written arguments. Rifkind has estimated he will have a recommendation ready for presentation to the U.S. Supreme Court by the middle of next year. The court will then decide the case, presumably on the basis of the special master's recommenda tion. Wednesday's session featured one of the most turbulent cross examinations of the trial. Mark Wilmer, Arizona attorney. subjected a California witness to a rapid-fire questioning about $40, 000 worth of wells recently drilled by California to determine wheth er there was usable water under ground in the Imperial Irrigation District. The witness, John F. Mann Jr., La Habra Calif., geologist, su pervised the drilling of five wells. He said the tests turned up noth ing but unusable salty water and silt. Wilmer tried to establish that FIRST PLACE NEW PINE CREEK Th Eastside Grange booth took first place at Ihe Cedarville Fair.

The cross-examination brought out the fact that Arizona had been given only six of 11 analyses of water specimens. Rifkind commented that Califor nia should realize "counsel of the other side are entitled to make their own judgments" about the water. He offered to order the analyses put in evidence, but Wilmer de clined. "Anyway," Wilmer said, "we have no confidence in any of the samples and would just as soon leave it as it is.
