About 300 of the 500 persons at-

As the storm headed into the

tures were more than 30 degrees
lower than 24 hours earlier in

Oil Demand
Reports Split
U S Agencies Divide over
Needs for Oklahoma Oil
OKLAHOMA CITY 4 — Two
conflicting reports will face the
Corporation Commission when it
meets Tuesday to set Oklahoma's
April oil allowable
Chairman Ray Jones said both
will be factors in the board's de-
cision One from the U S Bureau of
Mines predicted a decrease in the
estimated demand for Oklahoma
crude from 640000 barrels to 610-
000 barrels per day
The figure evidently is based on
the assumption that the Iraq pipe-
line and Suez Canal will be open
on a partial basis thus easing the
supply situation in Europe
Flemming Sees High Demand
at Arthur S Flemming direc-
tor eLthe Office of Defense Mo-
bilization wired the commission
he expects demand through April
to continue as ithas for the past'
few months
Flemming noted he considers it
"unwise to make assumptions as
to Ithei impact of reopening Iraq
pipeline or Suez Canal" He point-
ed out his prediction had nothing
to do with the domestic oil situa-
tion Ever since the Iliddle East cri-
sis last fall Oklahoma oil 'pro-
duction has risen kteadily During
February the state produced 646-
727 barrels daily the highest fig-
ure in many years
State Storage Down
Production for March has been
near the 642000-barrel allowable
set for this month
Jones pointed out that even if
foreign demand drops ' off the
state is in a better position this
year than last He noted that state
oil storage is about 20 million bar-
rels well below the 28 million bar-
rels stored in tanks at this time
last year
' Although he doubted that pur-
chasers will increase their nomi-
nations at next Tuesday's hear-
ings Jones added: The under-
ages have been made up and the
state can come nearer maintain-
ing high production than if the
tanks were full"
