 from coal in central power stations, and especially in municipal, public utility fuel 

 plants; and (2) applying a constructive economic policy and appropriate legislation 

 to the conditions surrounding petroleum production so as to bring the method of pro- 

 duction into conformance with the geological occurrence of the resource. It is be- 

 lieved that these measxires would effect economies offsetting, in large part, the cost of 

 the war.
