YESTERDAY TODAY and TOMORROW YESTERDAY: -Illinois Oil Basin Survey Committee, in a report'signed by the committee members below, reported to the Illinois Committee on Public Utilities and Transportation less than IS months ago as follows: interests advocating proration in Illinois are prompted by selfish interests, evidenced by the following: "(a) Preservation of market for oil produced in foreign States. "(b) toss of earnings of pipe lines operated under direct ownership or subsidiary ownership untl used in transmission of oil from the Southwestern states to the middle western market. "(c) Desire of absolute control of Illinois development by removal of independent small operating companies and Independent producers from the field. "(d) Desirability of holding long primary term leases at nominal rentals without development, while developing foreign lease interests held at hig-li annual rentals with short primary terms, at the risk of losing such interests if said interests be not developed within the rapidly piling terms thereof." That'-th underlying motives of those who are urging proratlon in the State of Illinois, under the truise of conser- vatlon, are "(a) The desire to delay development cf potential petroleum reserves in the State of Illinois; "(b) To create such obstacles through the enactment and enforcement of a conservation and regulatory measure as n-IH make it impassible for the small independent operator to continue in the field."
