A FITTING ANSWER Some idea of what it takes to discover »il field and bring it into production s told in news accounts of eight Americar | oil companies in Colombja, South America. One company spent $457,000 just in eaerial mapping, gravity meter, seismograph and other geophysical and surface geology e putting in a test well. Another com- Spemy estimates its cost of testing at $800, 000. After the oi) has been discovered and yrought to the surface it must be transport- Jed to market, In the case of the Columbia exple@rations, most of the search for oil: is being conducted in remote sections, requir- ng the construction of costly roads through hundreds of miles of trackless jungle, to | move in drilling machinery, and the con- uction of hundreds of miles of pipeline to get the oil out. In one area a 625-mile “pipeline may be needed which would cross | the foothills of the Andes at an elevation | Its cost would probably be 8,500 feet. the nefghborhood of $15,000,000. And yet when the oil reaches the con- ~Sumer, it retails for a few cents a gallon! ‘ I) anyone questions the value to the nation | of efficiently operated, competitive private industry, these figures provide a fitting answer, $ PET DOG KILLS BABY GIRL a .
