Oil independence 'a dream'
Bv ROY CLEVENGER

The entire world must endure a period of austerity to avoid a major shortage of energy, Charles A. Heller, oil expert, said here yesterday.
Heller, a petroleum consultant to the United Nations and the government of Trinidad and Tobago, spoke to about 75 people in the Kansas Union. He is the father of Francis Heller, professor of law and political science.
"Every time you needlessly use gasoline or electricity, you hurt the economic and monetary position of your country," he explained. "The basic rules of the energy policy."
Heller said he thought the goal of energy self-sufficiency for the United States by 1980—as envisioned in former President George W. Bush—was completely unrealistic dependence—was completely unrealistic
"Project Independence was a dream, a combination of dreams that could never be
realized," he said. "It is a project that cannot be executed and will not be executed. In the end, our independence will be very limited."
He said he hoped President Gerald R. Ford would propose a second, more realistic Project Independence that would seek energy self-sufficiency no earlier than
Heller said he thought that the project to develop a new wind energy center, cost $900 billion to $400 billion.
"The financing of this exploration will be done mostly from the earnings of private companies," he said. "You can't borrow money because, if you don't find it, you're broke."
He said he thought increased governmental restrictions on private oil companies could do "tremendous permanent damage."
The world energy crisis is far from over,
"We must stop playing politics with our oil and gas policies," he said.
--you can hardly tell the difference after
awake, he said.

"The United States is going to increase its imports of oil, petroleum and natural gas"
Heller said he thought another oil embargo against the United States would be more severe because of the increased political clout of the Arab countries and because these countries now have greater control over the destination of oil supplies.
Heller said, and the United States could face another and even stricter cutoff of crude oil from Arab countries at a time when the oil is needed most.
Oleie said he had experimented with writing about more realistic situations and
Oil companies wouldn't be able to send oil
where they wanted to as they did last fall, he
huffed.
He teaches two courses in fiction writing, and said a course of that kind can be valuable to an aspiring writer, because it provides a "forum for criticism."
"Chill Hearts" is the first chapter of "Motor Home," the book that Oleie is writing. Ohle discussed his writing style and how it had developed.
Increased control by Arab nations over major oil companies will have far-reaching impacts.
"I learned a lot from reading other people," Obie said, but he also said that it's definitely not the only way to write fiction."
"I've done lots of that, and it's never been published," he said. "I think that I'm just being funny."

Hearts" come from the mysterious Agency. "It doesn't matter especially what agency it is." Ohle said, explaining that the term itself was a wry joke.
"Agency" means a thing that generates action, and the protagonists of "Chill Hearts" aren't exactly the initiators of great change. Oblie said.
"Agents are so much like one another that
