prominent group of Texas industrialists, investment bankers and oil

operation of its first oil and gas properties, it was announced on

pleted 110 successful wells.
Mr.
Cullen disclosed
that Cullen Minerals has acquired oil rights
in approximately 90,000 acre! oI land in the Province of Pinar Del
Rio, Cuba.
Exploration and development of this acreage for com¬
mercial
petroleum production will be carried on by a wholly-owned
Cuban subsidiary of CMC, it was stated.
The
company also has
an option on at least a half interest in
about 200,000 acres of additional Cuban properties now under nego¬
tiation with the Cuban Government.
These options will be exercised
as
leases are perfected, company officials said.
Cullen
Minerals

has
acquired
an

38 producing wells on these properties, Cullen said, and there is spac¬
ing for several additional wells on acreage considered proven CMC has
also purchased some valuable gas and oil properties in Zapata County,
Tex., aggregating 2,435 acres, it was disclosed.

The
Securities and
Exchange Commission, it was announced on
Oct
8
has issued an order under the Securities Act of 1933 temporarily
denying a Regulation A exemption from registration with respect to
a
proposed public stock ottering by this corporation. The oraer pro¬
vides an opportunity for hearing on
tne question whether the tem¬
porary
denial of exemption should be vacated or made permanent.
The Regulation A notification of the issuer, filed July 5. 1955, pronoses
public offering of 1,250,000 shares of 10c par common stock
at
10c per share.
The purpose of the financing, according to the
offering circular,
was for
preliminary exploration on uranium and
rare
earths properties and for its exploratory oil development pro¬
gram
The company has outstanding 120,000 common shares, issued
to P." H. Lund, Secretary-Treasurer, in exchange for eight unpatented
mining claims and a mill site located in Gila County, Ariz., and a
Federal Oil and Gas Lease in Pima County, Ariz.
In its order, the Commission asserts that it has "reasonable cause
to believe" (1)
that the terms and conditions of Regulation A have
not been complied with in that the offering circular is false and mis¬
leading in resoect of certain material representations and (2) that the
use
of such offering circular in the ofiering and .sale of the shares
"would operate as a fraud and deceit upon the purchasers thereof."
The representations in question relate to the following:
(a) a state¬

(e) the failure to
disclose information as to the sale of securities by P. H. Lund during
the year prior to the filing of the notification;
(f) the failure to
disclose that P. H. Lund holds title to oil and gas leases on land
adjoining that owned by the issuer and the resulting benefits which
may accrue to Lund if a
well is drilled on the issuer's properties;
(g) the failure to disclose that the portion of Arizona in which the
issuer's oil and
gas
leases are located nas been classified as being
"unfavorable" in its relative likelihood of yielding oil in commercial
quantities, or information concerning
the distance to the nearest
commercial oil production from the issuer's leases and the distance
to
the nearest
commercial gas production; and
(h) the failure to
disclose, in respect of a "Reoort on Uranium and Rare Earths Mining
Property" by P. H. Lund that there are no known rare earths and
uranium on
the unpatented mining claims held
by the issuer and.
in respect of a "Report on the Marana Potential Oil and Gas Field"
