Guffey, president of the Agwi Oil company, in a state ment issued here yesterday. lie said the association had boycotted his company and had tried vainly to get the state department to refuse to permit him to charter United States shipping board tankers. .
 He asserted he had conferred with President Carranza and Luis Ca brera,l secretary of the treasury, and would leave in few days for New York "to start campaign favoring compliance on the part of American oil men to Mexican oil laws" Com panies which he controlled, he haid, had always obeyed Mexican laws, paid taxes and never protested to the state department. As result he asserted. they had never been in terfered with by the Mexican govern ment. MT. Guffey is quoted as claim ing to be a personal friend of Pres ;dent Wilson. Members fo his technical staff say he has received g lette rfrom Secretary Humility stat ing the United States government has not determined it's oil policy re. garding Mexico and that each com pany is left to choose it's own pro cedure.

 The cabinet meeting continued several hours. It was attended by Matthias Erzberger, the vice premier and minister of finance, whose ap- pearance was his first at meeting of the ministry since he was shot in the shoulder in the recent att tempt of a former cadet office to assassinate him.
 Rumors that a crisis was impend- ing in the government are declared by the Lokal Anzeiger to be ground l less. The cabinet members are In complete agreement on Germany's policy, the newspaper ayers. It is understood here that the di- rection of the German delegation in Paris has been taken over by tho senior ranking German official, the emergency created by the sud- den resignation of Baron Kurt Xon Lersner upon his refusal to trans~ init the extradition list to the Ber- lin government.
 The deliberations of the cabinet were wholly informal as neither . verified list of the men wanted hy the allies nor the covering note were at it's disposal.
