WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.—A Government claim for nearly two billion dollars against major oil pipeline companies would be forgiven under a proposed consent decree settling a big oil suit that is yet to be filed, it was learned today.
Thurman Arnold, head of the Jus-|
tice Department anti-trust division,
will offer to end the legal battle to clear the way for the companies to
build an $80,000,000 crude oil line
from Texas to the East.
Suit to Be Filed A pipeline suit, according to present plans, will be filed when defendant companies have agreed. to a consent decree settling it. The suit would name the major interstate oil pipeline companies and charge them, under the Elkins
and Interstate Commerce Acts, with|
giving rebates, refunds and other

offsets against published tariff charges. The law provides that the Government can collect three times the rebates if proved. One source has compiled figures to show that the Government has a claim against gasoline pipelines of more than $191,000,000, and against crude pipelines of about $1,500,000,000. According to one version of the proposéd consent decree, the Govemment would forgive all these claims. The decree, according .to this version, would prohibit future refunds or rebates, and the pipeline companies would be galled upon to operate under what would amount to a price ceiling. :
Ceiling on Earnings
They could not pay to their shipper owners more than 79% of their valuation. Profits in excess of 7% would be frozen, but could be used to build or buy additional lines. This version of the proposed decree might be changed. But. it is understood that Thurman Arnold, head of the anti-trust division, favors: it, and looks upon it as a Government victory: The proposed $80,000,000 pipeline would be built by two subsidiary companies to be organized by 11 oil companies. Although Congress pasesd a special law—the Cole Act —intended to bring about construction of such pipelines and permit them to get rights-of-way, these 11 companies want further assurances from the Government -before they move, according to one version of the agreement they have proposed.

Joe Lonigro . ... shoe making is a family tradition for five generations.
# 8 t 4
It takes from two and a half to three days to cobble a pair of the Presidential ' shoes. That's what Joe Lonigro says, and -he’s the guy who cobbles .some of them. He is cobbling at L. Strauss -& Co. this week as a part of an exhibition that is intended to show how the ready-to-wear clothes and ' accessories of today are given a supergloss and custom by a union of the machine and the hand craft. Mr. Lonigro has cobbled shoes for President Roosevelt, Al Smith, Jim Farley and scores of other dignitaries. He is a skilled employee of the Hanan shoe manufacturers. “If she’s done all by hand,” said Mr. Lonigro, “she takes two days and a half, maybe three days.” He is the fifth generafion of shoe makers in his family. Among other things you can learn at the exhibition, on the third floor, are that English weavers are making prompter deliveries of fabrics in this country than .domestic producers. This, according to Frank Bruno, representative of Hickey-Freeman, is because the English have lost their continental trade and most of the products of their looms are headed this way.
