Denver Oil Firm Maps
Kateel River Country
For Drilling Location
The Texota Oil Co., which has
employed the Geophoto Services
of Denver to carry out the work,
is currently conducting a mapping
survey of the Kateel River coun
try with plans to commence oil
drilling operations as soon as a
feasible location for the operation
is found.
The Kateel River country is lo
cated about 300 miles northwest
of Fairbanks. Th^ Fairbanks Oil
and Gas Co. was instrumental in
arousing interest of Texota offi
cials in the Kateel country as a
potential oil producing area.
A helicopter is conducting the
survey of the Kateel. Robert C.
White and Felix Bentz, who are
carrying out the mapping work
report that prospects appear to be
encouraging. They believe that
suitable prospects to drill will be
.found. They report locating “oil
structures” in the region.

Gets Cool Greeting
From Eisenhower on
Return From Panama
WASHINGTON, WV—President
Eisenhower flew in from Panama
yesterday with a warm greeting
for Vice President Nixon and the
briefest of handshakes for Harold
Stassen, his disarmament aide
who announced a move Monday
night to push Nixon off the Re
publican ticket.
Even before this tableau at the
airport, Nixon’s renomination had
appeared to be nearly cemented.
Both Nixon and Stassen were
on hand at the airport some min
utes ahead of Eisenhower’s land
ing and shook hands briefly after
a welcoming ceremony for the
president. Both were smiling but
Nixon turned quickly and walked
away.
Nixon was the first to greet
Eisenhower as the smiling Presi
dent stepped down from his pri
vate piano, Columbine III, at Na
tional Airport.
Eisenhower stepped from the
plane, unsmiling at first, but
broke into a wide grin when he
caught sight of Nixon at the foot
of the ramp.
>
“Hello, Dick,” Eisenhower said,
stretching out his hand in greet
ing.
Twenty feet down a receiving
line which included diplomats,
Republican members of Congress
and government officials, Stassen
was waiting with a broad smile
on his face.
Eisenhower moved on down the
straggling reception line, shaking
hands with everybody. He en
countered Stassen in 12th place.
Stassen remarked as he put out
his hand, “Good Morning. Con
gratulations on a great job down
there.”
Stassen had told a news con
ference that “in loyalty to Presi
dent Eisenhower” he would work
to replace Nixon on the GOP
ticket this fall with Gov. Chris
tian Herter of Massachusetts.
Stassen said private polls had
shown an Eisenhower-Herter tick
et would be six percent stronger
than an Eisenhower-Nixon com
bination. The added strength, he
said, might mean the difference
between Republican and Demo
cratic control of Congress.
Stassen repeated to newsmen
he did not make his supplant
Nixon move as a member of the
President’s official family, but as
a private citizen.
Nixon, interviewed separately,
renewed his statement of Monday
night that he stands on his an
nouncement he is available for a
second term bid but the matter is
one for Eisenhower and the GOP
convention.

25 cents of every dollar Standard takes in
goes to meet your future oil needs
Our search for oil has led to drilling offshore wells like this one (in
the Gulf of Mexico) costing nearly 6 times more than land wells.
BUILDING “ISLANDS” IN THE SEA from which
to probe the ocean floor is one good example of how we
must search farther afield to find the oil America UBes
in such quantity. And as new sources of oil become
harder to find, locating it and bringing petroleum prod
ucts to you grows more costly.
Last year, a quarter of every dollar Standard took in
was plowed back into oil exploration, development of
producing fields, research and cor"truction of facilities.
All told, during 1955 we invested $347 million to help
meet your growing oil needs.
