精讀原文：
The Law to Keep the Oil Industry under Control
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keepthe oil industry under control. A new law limitsexploration to an area south of the southern end ofthe long coastline; production limits have been laiddown (though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed toemploy more than a limited number of foreign workers.
But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that theGovernment will be able to hold things back for long.
As on Norwegian politician said last week: "We will soon be changed beyond all recognition."
Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in thearea north of the Arctic Circle. During the past few years this programme has had a great dealof success: Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and ahealthy industry.
But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the wholenorthern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. With nearly 100percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industriesand the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry. Some smallerindustries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods fromabroad.
The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen donot make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because Norwegianssee in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian.
And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of thedamage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.
