SINCLAIR SAYS OIL MERGER UNDECIDED Report of Technical Experts Awaited in Proposed Unification, [ SRS Y By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, January 16.—Harry F. Sinclair, head of the Sinclair Con- solidated Oil Corporation, said the formation of a new $800,000,000 petro- Joum corporation by me:ger of three large producing companics depended upon the report of technical experts of his company after completing a survey of properties involved. Sinclair arrived here yesterday for a | conference with officials of the Prairie Oil & Gas Co. of Kansas and the Rio Grande Oil Co. of Los Angeles to con- tinue merger negotiations which origi- nated several weeks ago in New York. “All I can say now,” Sinclair said, “is that negotiations are pending for solidation of the three companies and in the event an agreement can be reached we will enter the Pacific Coast field in every department, with both domestic and foreign distribution.” AMERICANS PLANNING NORWAY PULP DEAL Bcheme Contemplates Financing Almost Entire Industry by Group of Capitalists. By Radio lo The Star and Chicago Dally ws. Coprright, 1930 OSLO, Nomy January 16.—Almost the entire Norwegian pulp and paper industry will be financed by a group of Americans in a schem= involving an outlay of between $14,007,000 and m,— 000,000 and embracing, with one exce] tion, all plants opers'ing at a prof t if the negotiators emcrge with an ac- ceptable deal. ‘That exception i3 the Union Co., which itself was r-organized with joint American and Br_tish cugim last year. It was in the ccurse of this refinancing that the Ameri-an representatives, real- izing that Norway could supply the stupendous paper requirements of the United Stats at lower than Canadian prices, recelved inspiration for the proj- ect now under discussion. Aage Hjersing, who took the initial !tepa last year on behalf of the Nor- egian interests for financing the great us'ry has reviewed the history of the plans up to thejr present stage as follows: Thil plan for wholesale financing of ur pulp and paper industry arose dur- m' the Union Co. negotiations, when the Americans perceived Norway's na- tural advantages as a producer or paper. They were impressed fu:t that ths Nor\u[hn fac el, though employing inferior and anti- quated plants, could offer chelper paper than their Canadian competitors. “But the negotiations were rrutponed owing to the rise in the American bank rate and the general slump in_ the United States, but these obstacles have been surmounted. If the present nego- tiations bear positive results, the Amer- ican interests will establish themselves with omm in Norway and issue deben- mm lhu!n‘ T s:l’cuu will in c: i, m “direct buying of mechl undemunn Hotel Demoyed by Fire.
