Walling Heads Butane Unit; Ashburn Seeks Tax Reform r- it I Royall Lists Generals To Train Draftees a At the morning session, Ike Ashburn, executive secretary of the Texas Good Roads Association, suggested that abolition of the gasoline tax refund to farmers could raise Texas Highway Department revenues approximately $17,000,000. This money, he said, could be allocated to the counties from which it was collected for construction of farm-to-market roads. E. L.

Williams, director of the Extension Division of Texas College, scheduled to speak Monday, delivered an address titled "The L.P.G. Appliance Training School for Butane Service Men."

Schoch, veteran University of Texas chemical engineering professor. Dr. Schoch, who also is director of the University's Bureau of Industrial Chemistry, nays 8tatintics show the annual gas withdrawal is increasing more rapidly than the state's gas reserves. The future of chemical industry is linked closely with that of gas production because "cheap natural gas is the largest material item that brought the chemical industries to Texas." Gas production must be profitable if exploration is to continue, and to be profitable, the price of gas at the well must increase sufficiently with the years to yield the same return, regardless of whether the gas is sold now or 20 years from npw, he said. "An increase in price can be produced: by devising a cheaper method of converting methane to higher hydrocarbons," Dr.

Schoch explained.
