Government Report Indicates Profits beading To More Oil, Wells Studied Press reports of a study by the U.S. General Accounting Office on oil production pre sent a misleading picture of the actual findings of the study, the American Petroleum Institute said recently. On Aug. 22, the Associated Press distributed a dispatch which began: "An oil price in crease of $1 a barrel has en hanced oil company profits but not oil production, the General Accounting Office (GAO) re ported.” 2 In fact, the GAO report made the following statements, none of which were mentioned in the Associated Press dis patches: “From available statistical data on drilling activity, dis cussions with officials of trade Finding a reliable means of early detection of breast cancer is the goal of a new two-year $6.1 million study sponsored by the American Cancer So ciety and the American Col lege of Radiologists at 27 U.S. medical centers. m t I Os Edenton I I BRING US I I YOUR FILM I I FOR PROMPT I | PROCESSING | \ THE INCOMPARABLES 'f | Turn Lilliston loose on your peanut crop — Count on the highest possible harvest returns : Lilfston 6000 Hi-Cap !

Not since 1965 have there been an average of over 1,300 rigs drill ing. —"ln Texas, new drilling ap plications have increased 49 per cent between the first quar ter of 1973 and the first quar ter of 1974. —“A major oil company in formed us that a direct result of the economic incentive pro vided by the two-tier system and the dollar increase was that, through April 1974, 344 previously shut-in wells had been returned to production with a gain of 2,126 barrels of oil a day. Also, the company is reviewing all of its shut-in wells to determine whether they can be returned to production.” The GAO report also stated that although the average daily production of crude oil has been declining since 1970, "the rate of decline between 1973 and 1974 appeared to be de creasing.” A spokesman for the Ameri can Petroleum Institute, noting that increased drilling activity must precede accelerated pro duction, also pointed out that more recent figures show that domestic drilling for oil has in creased dramatically since De cember, when the price in crease went into effect. He said the number of well completions in the first half of this year was 14,718, an increase of 20.8 per cent over the same period last year. Orders Are Down Manufacturers of non-elec trical machinery now expect the value of their incoming or ders to slide 9 per cent in the second half of 1974, and they expect a further decline of 4 per cent in next year's first six months. These are key results of the Summer Quarterly Fore cast Survey of Machinery Man ufacturers. The study was conducted be tween mid-July and mid-Au gust by the McGraw-Hill Pub lications Company’s Depart ment of Economics. n^»Si L , Ma m Barham I / * V| Ba «, Assistant AU nager ' 1/ pJKhtokTc' IL THE CHOWAN HERALD Scout News Our meeting this week was divided into two parts. The first part was used in a small Court of Honor to pass out skill awards and merit badges. The second half was in the form of a board of review for two second class scouts. Several advancement projects were announced and were to be attended next Saturday. Our overall attendance was down this week but we are still growing, but two boys attending for the first time. Any boy or adult who would like to join or help in the scouting program is invited to attend any regular meeting on Thursday nights at 7 o’clock at the Scout Hut on North Broad Street. Frank Halsey Scribe H.B. Williford, Jr. Scoutmaster Business Asked By Government To De-Energize A new energy conservation system has been developed by the Department of Commerce for use by all sized companies to achieve significant energy savings. If fully implemented, the De partment says, it could result in energy savings by industry alone that would account for more than four per cent of all energy used nationally. Called EPIC (Energy Pro gram for Industry and Com merce), the Department says a firm could have its program underway in two weeks. Ini tial measures taken might in clude simple changes in plant maintenance and operation practices, such as reducing un necessary lighting, planning production schedules to mini mize energy use, and improving quality control to eliminate waste in processing. “A conservative estimate is that through implementation of this energy saving system, an average of at least 10 per cent savings could be achieved,” the Department says. Industry ac counts for 43 per cent of all energy consumed in the United States.
