Hughes Refuses to Report on Mexican Oil Depletion
Washington June 1 The Associated Press reports Secretary Hughes told House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Porter that the government cannot responsibly reveal current Mexican oil conditions or production prospects. Interior and State Department officials caution that official data are not yet authoritative for Congress or public release. Phelan notes rapid depletion in several fields, with some wells already drained into salt water, while Mexico holds reserves estimated around 4.5 million barrels. The debate centers on whether access to more data would affect market and American interests, amid competing oil interests and unanswered questions about future output in Mexico.
