Up Premier Aberhart of Alberta announced today the government s intention to set up a chair of Petroleum engineering and a department of Petroleum research at the University of Alberta that would serve to encourage further develop ment of Alberta s Oil Industry. The Premier also announced the government win give Early consideration to Tho recommendations made by the Mcgillivray Royal com Mission and recalled that during commission hearings Over a 15 month period gasoline Price reductions made in Alberta resulted in an. Estimated saving of annul. While the commissioners or. Justice a. A. Mcgillivray of the Alberta Appeal court and major l. R. Lipsett have not been Able to recommend any further decrease in present prices the government will continue to keep a close Check on costs and profits in refining and marketing. The posting company Imperial Oil. Limited is being notified that a further reduction in Price is expected to be made at the earliest possible moment said the Premier. The government finds there is no justification for an increase in the Price of crude from to s1.28 a barrel As recommended by the commission said or. Aberhart. This increase would single out the producer As the sole beneficiary of the whole of the savings totalling eight cents barrel brought about by Tho reduction in pipeline and loading charges made july 3. 1939. The commission in an interim report last year recommended the reduction in pipeline transportation from Turner Valley to Calgary and loading at the Calgary terminus Benefit to people promised the government will undertake to do whatever is necessary to see that a greater share of Benefit accrues to the people of the prov Ince from the development of our Petroleum and natural Gas re sources but at the same time it is prepared to permit a fair share of the aforesaid saving to be passed on to the producer for 1he purpose of further encouraging development. The Price existing before appointment of the commission must have been a fair Price As it seemed High enough to provide an adequate incentive for development and Dis placed american crude in Alberta and Saskatchewan he said. The research Council of Alberta under direction of the minister of Trade and Industry has had the matter of standards for Petroleum products in hand for some time and the government intends to submit the proposed standards to the Industry before putting them into Force the Premier continued. Additional duties for the. Petroleum and natural Gas conserva Tion Board also will be Given Early consideration. These duties have to do with observation of All branches of the Industry including production refining and marketing. Few York hide futures James Richardson and sons june 14, 1940.
