Ry the Associated Prees. OKLAHOMA CITY, July 23.—Oil sperators in the Seminole field of Okla- homa were reported today to be ob- serving a temporary order of the State Corporation Commission prohibiting || drilling and shooting of wells in cer- || tain parts of the fleld, although sharp | | difference of opinion as to the legality of the commission’s action had devel- i| oped. C. C. Childers, member of the com- missian, announced he would not sign || the order, issued last Thursday by the || two other commissioners, Fred Cap- shaw, chairman, and Frank Carter. Van Avoid Waste. Childers declared he did not believe the commission should take any acnon as long as operators could hand without waste, all of the oil pmduced in the field, which is producing about one-fifth of the total output of the Nation. No efforts had been made to test the authority of the commission, although {}i | a protest had been filed by the Gypsy || Oil Co., declaring the order uncon- stitutional. The attitude of authorities and ofl interests seemed to be that the order, returnable August 5, was temporary and that it would stand until perma- nent regulations are attempted. Experts Testify. Oil experts testified before the com- || mission that excessive production in || the Seminole fleld had upset market | conditions and that waste was prob- ble, unless some means were used to force all of the operators there to abide by a decision of 17 companies to limit the output.
