Europe Develops Newspaper
A New Thirst
London, Aug. 9.
Europe is growing increasingly thirsty--not for liquor but for oil. Her oil consumption is constantly reaching new peaks. Last year, it was 65.2 million metric tons-or some 12 per cent above the previous record consumption of 58.3 million metric tons in 1952. This year's consump tion is expected to total just over 70 million metric tons, 8 per cent above that for 1953.
These figures reveal the industrial development going on in the countries forming the OEEC bloc.
