Senste Finance Committee VIII Recon-.
mend Duty Of About ~ Per Cent.
WAsHINoTos. May 1.-THE independent
oil refners, who have been petitioning
the Senate to put duty on crude petro-
leum and it's products. have been assured
that such, duty will be recommended
by the Senate Finance Committee, but
that II will probably not exceed rs per
cent. ad valorem. The independent re-
finers. who assert that they have no con-
nection with the Standard Oil Company.
have asked for so per cent. to protect
them from importations Of crude oil from
the Mexican fields. which have been de-
veloped in the last few years and which
enjoy facilities for reaching the reineries
on the Atlantic coast by water much
cheaper than those afforded to tho pro-
ducers In Kansas and Oklahoma. who
must rely on pipe lines.
The figures which have been submitted
to the Senate show that the independent
producers yield about IS per cent Of all
the oil produced in the United States. but
that they refine only aboutilO to Is per cent.
When the independent oil men made their
appearance in Washington they were
confronted with the suggestion that they
were really Subsidiaries OF the Standard
Oil Company masquerading as inde-
pendents in order to better serve the in
terests OF the Standard. Within the last
forty EIGHT hours. however, a letter has
been handed around to Senators and Rep
resentatives. written by Miss Ida Tarbell.
who is not suspected Of having any over
weening admiration for the Standard Oil
Company, which practically gives the in
dependent. oil men clean bill Of health
in regard to the suggestion that they are
related in any way to the Standard Oil
Company.
Miss farbell says in effect that her
knowledge OF the oil business. gained from
years Of study Of the question, has con-
vinced her that the independent oil men
are really independent in fact as we'll as
in name and that their cause and her
cause is in common with that Of
the consumers OF the country. The
unexpected appearance OF this letter
has had marked effect. IL is said. on many
Of the Western Republicans OF the So
called progressive type. and they now
show symptoms OF voting TO restore the
duty on crude oil which was wiped out by
the House for the purpose OF striking a
blow at the Standard Oil Company.
