Mr. Sinclair, according to Mr. Foley offered to co-operate in any way pos sible but refused to place his contract ‘with the government in jeopardy by taking less than 100 per cent of pro duction until his total production had reached the amount specified in the yeontract. The contract referred to is “between Sinclair and the department of the interior on production from the Teapot naval reserve. The committee, after its meeting with Mr. Sinclair, went to Washing ton to confer with Mr. Hubert Work secretary of the interlor, Mr. Work showed much sympathy with the ques tion and promised to give his help to straightening the matter out to the best interests of the producers. As explained by Mr. Foley, the Salt Creek field today has a potential pro: duction of 185,000 barrels with oniy 90,000 barrels pipeline facilities. Therefore only 34 per cent of the pos sible production can be marketed. n ‘ould not be worked. nany of the leases were small and in he town lot class made it almost in yossible to get the many lease holders 0 agree to any concerted action.

Mr. Holland sprung the only bomb- shell of the meeting when he stated that he understood the Sincla'r p'an- ned to drill six wells on the southeast quarter of section two. ‘This he ‘hought should not be allowed, as the Sinclair has already sufficient wells yn the lease so that if they put down six new wells they would average one ‘o every 15 acres. Mr. Foley stated that while the Sin ir had submitted p'ats calling for wells that he was sure the com vay would co-operate on any plan he conservation committee might submit.
