Bill Targets Abandoned Mineral Estates To Aid Oil Drilling
Texas House bill by Rep. E. H. Short aims to classify mineral interests as abandoned after 20 years without transaction. If declared abandoned, half reverts to the surface landowner and half to the state, with surface owners authorized to lease for exploration. The measure seeks to unlock dormant resources where owners are unknown or abandoned.

Economists Predict Nuclear Energy To Boost U S Power
In Tulsa special report economists forecast nuclear energy rising to meet U S electricity needs by 1975 and reaching 30 percent of demand by 2000. The Oil and Gas Journal notes 1870 orders mark a high since 1967 with capacity gains reversing 1969 fossil-fuel trends. Nuclear costs rise from 100–200 per kilowatt to about 260 as newer plants come online. Breeder reactors 115 to 120 years away may stabilize prices. natural gas share falls from 17 to 13 percent by 1980.
