Rerlin. March 2S.-The United states
today formally entered a protest against
the bill recently introduced in the Ter
man Imperial Parliament aimed at the
petroleum monopoly.
lanes w. Gerard. United states Am
bas.ador to Germany, today presented q
letter to GottlIe5 Won JagOw, the German
foreign minister, in which ne stated
that he felt confident" that certain
clauses in the bill which seem TO 90 IN
Justice to American investors would ols-
appear before the bill was passed.
The German minister did not send an
immediate reply, and it is not known
Just what action he will take with reter-
ence to the communication
Secretary of State Bryan yesterday
said that Ambassador Gerard mao peen
instructed TO make representations to
the German government on behalf OF
the Standard oil Interests in that coun.
try IL the terms of the oil monopoly bill
now pending in Parliament seemed in
his judgment to render the American
concern liable to injustice.
The attitude of the State Department
is that II shall make no attempt to de-
feat the oil monopoly bill itself, nor to
contest the right OF the German Parlia-
ment to enact such a law, but to see that
the Standard Oil receives fair compensa-
ton for its properties, the taking over OF
which the monopoly bill contempiates.
