The Texas Supreme Court sustains Rule 37 by the railroad commission to regulate drilling and protect vested rights while preventing waste. It clarifies the rule may have exceptions to defend property interests, but a voluntary subdivision cannot create an automatic right to an exception. The decision affirms earlier rulings in Brown v. Humble Oil and Stewart v. railroad commission.
