UINTA BASIN Oil world is watching this spot Stimulated by the development of oil in the Rangely field, just across the state line in Colorado, renewed interest is being manifest in the possibility of adding Utah to the column of oil producing states. Drilling program which is being watched with interest is that of the Carter Oil Company, one of the nations large oil companies, which is drilling a structure about 12 miles north of Vernal in the Unitah basin. Oil leases covering virtually the entire Unitah basin from Vernal to Roosevelt have been taken up and results of the Carter Wildcat test will have a bearing on future activity throughout the basin. LOGAN, UTAH IN Harry Barfield Craven Former Parliamentary Candidate of the British Labor Party VICINITY ANO HYRUM, UTAH and RICHMOND, UTAH on map Utahs Uintah Basin. The Carter test has reached a depth of 7,000 feet and the objective sand is expected to be encountered somewhere between. feet and 9,000 feet. Another wildcat which is being watched is that of the Western Oil Corporation on the Gordon Creek structure, 15 miles west of Price. The well has reached a depth of 7385 feet and is the deepest well ever drilled in Utah. Objectives of the drilling are the first productive sand, the Coconino, expected at 9,000 to 9.500 feet, and the Weber formation, at greater depth, Oil in commercial quantities would be a welcome addition to Utahs long list of minerals. 7,-0- 00 Subscribe now, only $2.00.

CRAVEN OP,ENS:Is Socialism Responsible for the British Crisis? Yes to the same extent that spots on the sun were responsible for the defeat of Churchill and the Conservative party at the last general election. Lest this should be considered as too flippant an answer, 1 would like to point out that hunting for a goat is a form of sport that leads nowhere. Great Britain took a major part in two world wars within two decades. The results to their econreomy would have brought a less silient nation to the ground. The fact that they refused to accept defeat saved the world, including the U.S.A. Any government, facing the problems at the end of hostilities, would have had hard sledding. A correspondent of The New York Times g ot exactly a paper pointed out recently that everybody he interviewed among a large Employers group agreed that any other than he present Labor government would oave been faced with a revolutionary ntuation. Socialism, in the Labor 'arty sense, i.e., the nationalization certain essential industries, long iverdue, is in no sense responsible di Britains troubles. On the contrary, their moderate and evolutionary program has probably made possible a middle road between the two extremes of Communism and Fascism. Millions in this country and throughout the world are praying for the success of what is probably the last hance to combine the two democrain a cies political and economic workable human system. I add my orayers to theirs, accompanied by a hsarttelt cheerio. DE, SAXON CHALLENGES: The "iestion of the responsibility of for the British crisis cannot debated on the basis of Utopian -'cpectations, nor on the basis of past disasters. The Socialist government must stand on its own immediate leoord which proves conclusively that the government has added not left-win- sac shillings worth to Britains wealth. To meet absenteeism the oest the government can do is to restrict midweek sports; to attempt vainly to meet its essential coal quota it plans to encourage immigration of miners. Meanwhile, it continues to levy confiscatory taxation, V PROMPT, COURTEOUS AND EXPERT ATTENTION Miller REG. 98c EACH NO. 1 GRADE ROSE BUSHES Chevrolet Co 209 No. Main Phone 1820 Now 49c Field-Grow- n Rushes Quality.

Meanwhile,- the people go hungry and the Empire dissolves, ME. CRAVEN REPLIES: It is a little difficult to conduct this discussion in a medieval atmosphere. Of neces sity, every Government, in any coun try, comes into office as an inheritor pf a situation. Britains foreign trade (without which she cannot live) in spite of enormous difficulties, has town a vitality which has surprised and I mean tfca world. The people die common people according to very survey made, are better fed day than in the most prosperous 'British Empire days. I am delight- ed that the Empire is being replaced by a Commonwealth the family has grown up. Britain needs many things that we can supply Cassandras are luxury we had better keep for Yale University DR. SAXON OPENS: There canV no possible doubt of the final respe sibility of the Socialist Govern?, in Great Britain for the magnitt of the existing crisis. The doctrinaj planners in charge of Britains fe' tinies have at last succeeded in pv? ning a once great nation and Emp. ouf of existence. Englands lifeforjj is coal; but did the Socialists as ago as January, 1945, heed i Churchills plea for increased n? serves of coal? They did not; inste they hurried toward nationalizat.J of coal, land, communications, e Then, when the coal shortage becas so acute that the nation's indud shut down, the feeble explanad was that the weather was bad. Xi have ' the Socialists been any constructive in their handling of & manpower problem. The cry is ftr there are not enough mine worker! But the Government seems to forg a man works when he has an iuce' tive to do so; the incentives are go and their place is being taken by jf increasing totalitarianism plainly er? dent in the threat to stringent wartime manpower cc" trols. There is a famous song to fe effect that Britons never, never C be slaves. But not even the Enjl4 press any longer agrees. The magri zine Time and Tide, never a sc;i porter of Churchills party, recent; described the tragedy as follow 'The mechanism for the total a struction of freedom is already coilI. plete. It is too late to say: It e happen here. It has happened.' MR. CRAVEN CHALLENGES: E Saxons prophecy of doom smells much of wishful thinking. Englani life force is not coal but the spirit its people, which is indestructible, an example of free enterprise, t coal industry has a most unenviai; record. The only incentive offered the miners, by absentee owners,! ' an alternative to starvation, as c testify.

SAXON REPLIES: Koto' questions the spirit of the Bria people. Certainly a less stalwart i tion would have collapsed long fore now. But thef fact that Engte has- not done so is no credit to Socialists, who have placed evt conceivable obstacle in the way recovery. Its too bad that Mr. & ven fails to cite one factual exai of constructive improvement in British economy; but the reason h obvious: no such improvement occurred. The lesson of British ciaiism should be taken to heart? those few nations still remain: free: namely, that a vast system state monopolies (as Mr. Eden de scribes the economy today ) is a hand pressing impersonally li S & 1 ; ; i i Evergreens Chinese Juniper 5 to 6 Feet n Overstuffed QQ Pyramidal Arborvitae 6 to 8 Feet NonmoME t Sets Living Boom 5.95 PLANT FOOD r $25 & $39so jr In Very Good South Cache Courier SEED AND FERTILIZER SPREADER 1.29 lb.
