The cost if $2.00 for outside and $4.00 for inside and outside. Proceeds go towards a trip to Hawaii in June. There is, as pointed out in this months cover story, still a lot of oil available for the taking in this country. The fact we must face is that its a lot harder to get at than the oil weve pumped before. Looking at it from a pure economic standpoint, the situation would seem to be simple: it costs more to drill in deep water or in the Arctic than it does to go a few thousand feet under the Texas soil, and it costs more to squeeze oil out of shale than to drill for it. Thus, logic tells us, we merely pay higher prices for fuel and that will provide extra money for new oil finds-an- d perhaps help the search for domestic alternate fuels. Hopefully, a stepped-u- p oil program would eventually lead to at least a levelling off of fuel prices. So while we have the fuel resources, its going to cost us until weve funded a lot more projects and things like solar reflecting collectors that will someday broadcast energy from space. Those kinds of things would also help relieve our dependence on imported oil, which has put us at the mercy of the OPEC countries. It all sounds simple enough. But what really complicates matters is that the federal government is involved. It is spending billions of dollars on a it is messing up the energy program-an- d so-call- whole thing. In its headlong rush to limit oil company profits, the fed is also limiting oil companies ability to look for new fuel sources. For example, one forecaster says theres enough natural gas available to last from 600 to 1000 years at our present rate of growth in consumption But virtually nobody is drilling new gas wells here. Why? Because the government regulates the price to the point it is unprofitable, and no company is going to jump into a field it if knows its going to lose money. It would again seem logical that if gas prices were deregulated and allowed to rise to the level we pay for foreign oil, more gas exploration and production would result. Many feel that alone would drive all types of fuel prices down and relieve our dependence on imports. And where, one asks staff-belie- ve ot fuel-savi- ng money-especial- Published as a Paid Advertisement by Black Oil Co., 1 h is the Carter administration spending all those billions? Much of the money goes to the Department of Energy, which in 1978 had a budget of over $10 billion and a it or not-o- f 20,000 people. That the budget, by way, is more than the total 1974 of the seven profits largest U.S. oil companies-profit- s the government called obscene. According to Western Crude Oil Inc., last years DOE budget was more than all the 1975 capital and exploration expenditures to produce domestic oil and gas- - it represents 10c per gallon of gasoline consumed in 1976; it represents $3.59 for every barrel of domestic crude oil produced in 1976; it represents $500,000 for each of those 20,000 DOE employees, and it represents $50 for every man, woman and child in the U.S. Thats where your taxes are going, and that seems a lot more obscene than oil company profits that could be plowed back into the economy through an expanded industry that would provide bureaucratic jobs. legitimate jobs-nThe government is also spending a bunch of bucks trying to convince everyone to save fuel. If you look at its approach coldly, the fed is saying we have to save fuel even it if puts us out of business on one hand, while it discourages free enterprise from trying to produce more fuel. And its telling Us that at a time when higher prices alone will force us to save fuel. Yes, we should conserve fuel. We should buy devices like wind deflectors, thermatic fans, economy engines and powertrains when theyll save fuel in our trucks. Because saving fuel is going to save us as fuel prices rise. Thats only common sense, and its the kind of thing we dont need to pay bureaucrats to tell us. By the way, the DOE budget for 1979 is $10.8 billion, which is up from last year. Thats obscene. ly Monticello-Moa- house. This was a mock disaster, whereby there had been a bomb dropped in the city of Los Angeles and an explosion had also occurred at the middle school, injuring many students. The junior troop 666 were the victims in the challenge and were made up by Teresa Posey and Dave Durrant. They had injuries ranging from bro--. ken backs to lacerations, compound fractures, large splinters of wood inbed-e- d in eyes and extremities, due to the supposed falling debris. The ambulance was called in for a cardiac arrest and brought the heart monitor and all necessary equipment. This was also a test for the mock disaster.
