| It has been America's line of defense, | 0:02 | |
| a supplier of food and the highway to the rest of the world. | 0:04 | |
| Today, it is our biggest hope for new oil supplies. | 0:08 | |
| According to one estimate, | 0:11 | |
| there is more oil undiscovered off our shores, | 0:12 | |
| than we've used in America in the past 100 years, | 0:15 | |
| lots of natural gas too, possibly twice as much | 0:18 | |
| as we've ever used. | 0:21 | |
| In all off-shore drilling, | 0:22 | |
| we must be vitally concerned about the ecology of the sea. | 0:24 | |
| Fortunately, there are sophisticated methods today | 0:27 | |
| that enable us to protect the sea's environment | 0:30 | |
| better than ever before. | 0:32 | |
| With our increased needs for a secure domestic supply | 0:34 | |
| of oil, it's not surprising | 0:37 | |
| that a recent national survey reported | 0:38 | |
| that three out of four Americans favor off-shore drilling. | 0:40 | |
| The US government has announced its intention | 0:44 | |
| to offer additional off-shore acreage for leasing in 1975. | 0:46 | |
| Texaco firmly supports this stepped-up leasing program. | 0:51 | |
| The longer we wait, the longer we'll be dependent | 0:54 | |
| on foreign oil. | 0:57 |
