Oil official warns year to restore canal disrupted transport
Miami Beach Florida reports H A Stewart director of the Interior Department office of oil and gas says it may take a full year to restore normal oil transport channels disrupted by the Suez Canal crisis. He notes six months for canal clearance but a year to repair damaged pipelines. The US will boost domestic production to meet home needs and help Europe. A foreign petroleum shortage may be reduced by mid next year and perhaps entirely in a year, with stocks depleted and abnormal rebuilding efforts needed. The federal government does not plan to tell states how to run production.
