PIPE-LINE FIGHT GETTING HOTTER

Blooms Debate Over American Post-War Policy.

By MARSHALL McNEIL Scripps-Howard Staff Writer WASHINGTON, March 3. — The fight over the Arabian pipe line,

ment, is blossoming into a. fullfledged debate over American postwar policy. The economics of the line are still being- discussed, but’ even the petroleum industry war council in ‘opposing the project admits it probably would deliver oil from Saudi Arabian fields on the Persian gulf to the eastern shore of the Mediterranean at a saving of from 15 to 20 cents per barrel as compared with tanker shipment. There is genera] agreement that construction of the line would present large, but not insurmountable { problems. | The miiltary support for the projject, evidenced in approval of the {line by the ‘joint chiefs of staffs, |the war and navy departments and [the commander-in-chief, is not | openly challenged.

Poses Two Questions

This leaves the major argument {based on two questions: First, should our government take {a financial stake in a vital natural resource in a far-off foreign country, | with all the political hazards attendant on such an enterprise? Or {should our government limit its ac- | tivity to support of American nain ‘their ‘business ventures

Second, should our government enter business, if only to the extent of owning a transportation facijity? In the oil business, however, it is sometimes true that control of the pipe line means control of the field. The answer to these questions will not affect the Arabian pipe line alone, but all of our post-war. dealing. And some contend that it may be but a step from owning an oil pipe line to owning an oil company, or an interest in other basic resources, Ickes Forces Issue

As head of the Petrolfum Reserves } Corp, the government compshy Which has agreed to build the line, and as petroleum administrator for [ae Secretary of Interior Ickes has long urged the formation of a new | American foreign oil policy.

stated their arguments in two documents.

List Objections

One is a statement of proposed national oil policy, approved by the petroleum industry war council and submitted to Ickes; the other is a brief on the political and international aspects of the project written by George A. Hill Jr. of the Houston Oil Co., and indorsed by the council and the Independent Petroleum association. The council said that the U..S. “will declare in the contract that it | will promote and protect the 4n[terests of the governments of the i territory traversed, entirely without | reference to the future nature or | iyrisdiction or policies of such gov|ernments and without reference to existing spheres of influence which may be claimed by other countries . . . the direct participation by

traversing the territory of three foreign nations can easily lead to international misunderstandings and pave the way to a future war through the involvement of our national honor.” « The Hill brief concludes: “This planned- action... . is the beginning of a fatal and mistaken policy . . . it is the Fascist approach—the corporative state with its lust for imperialism, the shackling of free American enterprise, not to better serve, but to displace private enterprise, at not only the risk, but with | {the certainty of international in-| velvement.”

' Associates’ Long, ‘Love It:

By FRED Ww. PERKINS Scripps-Howard Staff Writer CLEVELAND, March 3—Bill Jack had Just rolled in from Washing=" ton where he had given a bunch of congressmen a free feed plus his ideas

’

after taxes to keep going after the

war. And it was plain as we walked through one of the six Jack & Heintz plants that the employees—excuse it, the: assoclates—approved

All 7500 of them had heard the speech, It was recorded in Washington and reproduced over the plants’ public address system. In addition, the phenomenal head of this phenomenal concern had taken a few minutes in Washington to tell the night shift personally that evarything was going O. K. He did this. by long distance telephone which was hooked on to the loud speakers here, “Hi-ya, Bill!” “Good work, Bill!” called the associates as our party, which included partner Ralph Heintz, walked through. It became a kind of triumphal march, with men and women running over from their machines to shake Bill's hand and pat him on the back. But this’ was just a sample of what happened in the cafeteria.

Yell Welcome

There 500 associates, busy with the big free lunch which the company provides, got up and yelled a

welcome home to Bill. He might have been a football hero returning from a victory, and this might have been a college crowd—it was so exuberant, so happy. é You have to see it to believe it. More than 7000 people, about onethird women, willing to work 11 hours a day, seven days -a week, four weeks a month, 12 months a year—and saying they like it, even love it. It is contrary to all teachings of the social workers and the labor unions and of most industrialists, This visitor search in vain for signs of fatigue. All he got were sniiles—which is what they seem to manufacture most at Jack & Heintz in addition to precision gadgets for airplanes—and a denial that anybody could get tired working for
