The United States will cut west coast oil imports in early 1960 but will exempt Canadian oil from the tightened limits. West coast Canadian imports are expected to stay about 52 000 barrels daily, unchanged from late 1959, while imports from other countries drop roughly 13 000 barrels daily. Canada’s exemption follows a two year diplomatic dispute and includes crude used by four west coast refineries and Great Lakes shipments.
