Show W EDITORIALS Deserve Thanks Whether or not many of us rea realize it a vote of thanks from the people of Moab and Grand county it due to Pure Oil on company after the discovery in the past few weeks of a commercial oil producer producer pro pro- ducer on the Big Flat The discovery was made after many months of drilling coupled coupled coupled coup coup- led with innumerable setbacks which would have forced many oil exploration efforts to cease But what seems most important to tous tous tous us is the fact that Pure had faith enough in this portion n of Utah to enter into a drilling program on property which had seen drilling activity for lor many years but no commercial reial production We imagine that Pure's announcement that they would drill the Big Flat caused many heads to tobe tobe tobe be shaken in oil exploration circles even though good indications of commercial pools of oil had been shown there in the past We have no doubts that this discovery will spark increased drilling in the area and will be a big start towards placing Grand county as One ne of Utah's leading oil producing counties |
