RAMENTO, Jan. 2I--What-
d ever may be the efforts of the
professional lobbyists, who, it
a is understood. are coming to
Sacramento in numbers to
work in the interests of the Ralston oil
BILL that measure will be opposed by the
solid strength of the Southern California
delegat ation.
This was decided tonight at a meeting
of that delegation at which the subject
was fully discussed, and the agreement
of the members was that the bill is
plainly in the interests of the Standard
Oil Company and so preiudicial to the
oil interests of the State that it should
be defeated. The members of the south
ern delegation therefore pledged them
selves not only to vote against the meas
ure but to secure such other votes against
1t they could.
In order that there might be no mis-
understanding as TO the attitude of the
delegation the following resolution. signed
by seven of it's members, was unanimous
ly adopted:
Resolved That so far as the South
ern California Assemblymen are con-
cerned no lobby Is needed to secure un-
wavering opposition to the Ralston pc
troleum test bill; but they will be glad to
confer on the subject with any and all
consumers and producers of crude oil who
may be interested in the natter
This resolution was signed by AS
semblymen Stanton. Camp, Carter Good
rich, Burgess. Johnstone and Mccartney.
The adoption of this resolution was the
climax of a long discussion of the
Ralston bill, during which it was stated
that in the opinion of the members
there is no doubt that the Standard Oil
Company is behind the measure, and
through it, seeks to secure monopoly
Of the business of refining all the oil
which is used for fuel in the State
DANGER TO INDUSTRY.
Assemblyman Carter explained the ef-
feet which such a law would have upon
the oil industry, not only in Southern
California, but throughout the State He
said there could be no doubt that if the
bill become a law it would ruin the oil
Industry, for the reason that IL would
be impossible for the producers of crude
oil to conform to the test which the bill
imposes. He urged the members to work
and vote against the measure, which. he
said. was an effort to create monopoly
in the oil business, which would have at

Assemblyman Burgess said that he saw
in the bill only an effort by the Standard
