OIL INDUSTRY ASKS U. S. TO BE ITS BOSS 10-Cent Barrel Product Leads Producers to Demand Federal Rule. fly fx'rippe-Hoirartt Xctmpnper Alliance OKLAHOMA CITY. May 13. The nation's $12,000,000,000 oil inti ustry, harried by ruinous prices, overproduction and the oil bootleg racket, wants Uncle Sam to be boss. Proration is at the crossroads, after six years' use by states to curtail production. The natural resource that supports the country's third largest industry is at stake. And oil leaders are asking dictatorial federal control, saying the only other course in the crisis is to cut loose all restraint, and live by the law of the jungle. Under an emergency national bill which has been in preparation for some time. President Roosevelt, through Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes, would be oil czar the next two years. He would, limit production, set the price, fix the market demand and curtail foreign imports of oil. A simple calculation shows the economic absurdity of the present situation. Oil recently dropped to 10 cents a barrel in the flush east Texas field. Helpless in New Crisis An average barrel of high-grade oil brings twenty gallons of gasoline, on which the federal government collects 20 cents in taxes, states an additional 80 cents to $1.20. Most of the oil states have passed rigid proration laws, but the new T crisis finds them helpless. And instead of bayonet rule, which they used with success in 1931, they turn to federal control. The nation's requirements are estimated by many at about 2,100,000 barrels daily, of which 100,000 can be pulled from storage. But the drilling and pumping and flowing ol crude oil goes merrily on at a greater figure. Leaders of the Mid-Continent area ponit accusingly at Texas, where a railroad commission order opened an 800,000-barrel daily flow in east Texas and a total of about 1,300,000 barrels daily for the state. The state's total, they say, should be about 800,000 barrels. New Plan Drafted When the Texas senate refused to remedy the situation by creating a new conservation commission, oil executives threw up their hands. Governor Alfred M. Landon of Kansas and Governor W, R. Murray of Oklahoma called them in session. Committees were dispatched to Washington. New conferences with Secretary Ickes saw a provision written into the proposed legislation to limit imports to the average for the last six months of 1932, which hit anew low mark when the excise tax on imports became effective. As redrafted, the bill prohibits interstate or inter-country transportation of oil produced in excess of the “market demand,’’ or “hot’’ bootleg oil produced in violation of proration laws. With the aid of an advisory board, Secretary Ickes would allocate to the states their

LAUDERBACK TO FACE SENATE TRIALMONDAY; West Coast Judge Gave Receiverships to His Friends. Charge. By Scrippg-Hotcard Xetctpaper Alliance WASHINGTON, May 13.—The senate trial of Judge Harold Loud- ! erback of the California federal j bench may be the first of several' impeachment proceedings before - congress. Judge Louderback. accused of misbehavior and “misdemeanors in ! office’’ in having passed out highly- ; fed receivorships of his friends,' goes to trial Monday with the sen-: ate sitting as an impeachment 1 court for the first time since 1926. The Chicago bar association has criticized another federal judge for the same sort of alleged misuse of receivership powers He is Judge Charles Woodward. No formal impeachment move has been made against the Chicago judge, however. Boston Judge Under Fine The house has passed a resolution appropriating $5,000 to investigate the fitness of Federal Judge James A. Lowell of Boston. Judge Lowell drew fire from Virginia's Representative Howard Smith and other Southerners for having refused extradition papers for a Negro, George Crawford, accused of murdering two Middleburg, (Va.) women. Judge Lowell's refusal was based on the theory that the Negro would not be given a fair trial in Virginia or be permitted to have Negroes on his jury. The house passed the investigation resolution 209 to 150. Such an inquiry is the first move looking to an impeachment trial. The Hoover-appointed federal judges in New Jersey are under fire of newspaper criticism. The Philadelphia Record has questioned the conduct of Judges Guy L. Fake and John Boyd Avis in connection with beer racketeers. .... “Strong Man” Is Reported .... “Is there any connection between friendly judges, brewery racketeers and friendly politicians?.” the Record asks. “Congress must investigate Judges Fake and Avis, to determine whether there is ground for impeachment.” The trial of Judge Louderback breaks into the senate’s busiest season, and will last a week or ten days. Upwards of forty witnesses have been subpoenaed from San Francisco. A board of five manager froh the house headed by Representative Hatton Sumners will condudet the prosecution. Two of these managers, Representatives
