Oil shale center gains new support Continued DEN VER the Center to date by industry the University has now reached a total of $360,000. industrial support of the Center for Fundamental Oil Shale Research at the University of and consecutive year was announced by Dr. Charles H. Prien, head of the chemical division of the Universitys Denver Research Institute (DRI). The Center is devoted to basic studies on the chemical nature of oil shale and its Development Co., Carter Oil Co. (subsidiary of Humble Oil Co.), the Oil Shale Corp. (TOSCO), and Atlantic Richfield Co. (ARCO). TOSCO and ARCO are members on behalf of Colony Development Operation, an oil shale development group which The present industrial Denver for the fourth sponsors include Shell Additional industrial Too many hunters are blamed for the dwindling numbers of some birds and animals.

Sen. Moss, in a Senate speech referred to the January action of outgoing President Johnson enlarging these two monuments.

The move makes ARCO a participant with TOSCO, Sohio Petroleum Co. and Cleveland Cliffs Iron Co. in the oil shale venture. ARCO paid $8 million to each of its three partners for the 30 per cent interest or a total of $24 million. ARCO has assumed the duties of operator of the joint venture, a $12.5 million field program for development of a commercial process for produce ing oil from shale rock in the Rocky Mountains region. A spokesman for ARCO said that the joint venture, known as the Colony Development Operation , is being headed by H.E. Bond whose office is in Denver, Colorado and still is in the process of organization. At the same time the TOSCO announcement was made in New York, testimony of John F. O' Leary, director of the Bureau of Mines, was released in Washington, in which he stated that federal, not private, research is We most likely to develop oil shale production. His testimony was given in a closed hearing of an appropriations subcommittee of the House late in February. O'Leary said the bureau requests $2.57 million for oil shale research in fiscal 1970.
