THE LN'DTANAPOLIS TIMES

WILBUR CITES PERIL OF OIL SCARCITY SOON Producers and States Arc Urged to Save ’America's Gasoline Civilization.’ im I'-itil"! rn ■ COLORADO SPRINGS, June 10. —Ray Lyman Wilbur, secretary of interior, today urged delegates to President Herbert Hoover's oil conservation conference to get together and make an agreement to conserve the nation's oil supplies. The secretary was the first and principal speaker at the meeting. “The oi! industry," ire said, “faces a difficult and complicated situation which can be met only by an earnest study of all ol the lectors mvolved and by a Spirit of co-opcra-tion. This is a gasoline civilization here :n America. Wastes Acknowledged “It is acknowledged there arc considerable preventable wastes in the handling of our oil supplies. These arc due to tire wastes ol gas and oil. the use of gasoline, containing crude oils in other than gasoline engines, the large amounts left in Jhe ground because of badly managed attacks upon the pools and the wastage from evaporation due to expensive storage above ground. "It is also acknowledged that there is a limited supply oi oil available. estimates vary, but those most expert in the field expect our present volume of production to last for less than a decade. “Primarily, the responsibility foi the handling of this oil problem lies with the industry and with the governments of the states. “The position of the federal government is not to interfere with the rights and duties of the local state governments, but to lend such aid as it can and to participate in the solution of the problems. Commission Sought “The aims sought arc uniformity of the conservation law's of the major producing states by the enactment of identical conservation legislation and the uniformity of enforcement by some body, ouch as a joint commission. This could be created by a simple compact of the states ratified by congress “Such a commission. *f organized, could assist in the creation ol voluntary agreements and could develop plans devoted to the diminution of the various wastes, such as prescribing limitations upon the open flow of petroleum or gas. “Plans could be devised which would permit unit operations of single oil pools and a proper preservation of gas contained in all pools, together with joint efforts to control the intrusion of water.”

The ex-service men want at least a safeguard clause in the greement making France's payments to! America and Great Britain depend upon Germany’s payments to the allies, especially France. That is to say. if Germany fails to meet payments, France be permitted also to stop her payments to the United States and Great Britain until such a time as France, is able to collect from Germany. The veterans also insist that France refuse to evacuate the Rhineland in a a fashion premature and dangerous to the security of the country.” Above all, they ask that the French government tcfusc to ratify the Young pact until all the other nations have ratified it.

LEAGUE WILL ACT ON U. S, COURT STAND Approval on Revision of Protocol Before Council. BY HENRY WOOD United Press StatT Correspondent MADRID. June 10.—Approval of the League of Nations protocol, revised last March to make possible the adhesion of the United States to the World court and to conform with the reservations of the United States senate, will be one of he principal subjects on the agenda oi the league council, which convened here today for its fifty-fifth session. This protocol was revised by Eliliu Root, celebrated American jurist, in the hope that after it met with the approval of the league council it would be acceptable. The United States senate insists that it be consulted on all matters concerning the United States before those matters are placed in the hands of the World court jurists for an advisory opinion. While the agenda for this session includes nearly forty problems of international importance, the question of approving the new protocol, to replace the protocol of 1926, is one of the most important. Another vital question is that of European minorities.
