Optimism Reigns In Oil Business At Tulsa Exposition
Tulsa May 14 P They have taken a lot of the bogeymen out of the oil game with the ninth international petroleum exposition drawing big industry figures. Optimism runs high over refining advances and stable marketing methods as consumption outpaces production. W G Skelly calls the expo tremendous and notes the oil business is going places. Refiners foresee a summer of heavy use as motorists hit the highways in more numbers than before. Contract shipments show gains while low grade fuel prices dip slightly but are not alarming. Natural gasoline at 33 5 cents offers blending value to match or beat third grade fuel saving a cent per gallon.
