GREAT FALLS Mont Aug 13 1947 representatives of major oil states say petroleum demand for next year may exceed war years but no immediate reserve exists to cover an emergency. At a three day interstate compact commission meeting officials discussed new sources and pipeline needs with experts noting steel shortages and acute Midwest supply.

What Would You Do With Uncle Sam On These Problems
Two questions confront economists about postwar policy. First, with steel scarce and ships being built abroad while many U.S. ships sit idle, should the United States curb steel exports to prioritize railroads, farms, and communications, and how to tell European powers they cannot have more steel for ships. second, Europe faces bread shortages and scarce dollars, risking continued need for U.S. aid unless Europe can buy wheat with dollars and invest in renewed industry, while Washington contemplates spending 332 million on foreign relief next year.

Oklahoma Welfare Reforms Face Revenue, Caseload Strain
The state public welfare system operates independently of the governor and faces a 20 percent aid cut amid rising rolls. In six months of 1947 revenue outpaced 1946 by over $2 million, yet 4000 more families joined child assistance and 17,000 more seniors received old age aid. Oklahoma has the nation's highest old age aid burden per 1000 seniors, with 565 beneficiaries per 1000 over 65 receiving $42.27 monthly. Kansas compares with 174 per 1000 and $34.57 in similar demography, highlighting looming choices: raise taxes, cut aid, or shrink rolls as the legislature weighs options.
