NAVY MUST PAY MORE
FOR FUEL OIL SUPPLY


Washington. March 16.-Fuel oil
bids opened today by the navy de-
partment covered less than one
fifth of the 100000 barrels asked
for and prices quoted were more
than 100 per cent above those in
current contracts.
A quotation of around $4.20 a
barrel for delivery of 100000 bar
rels at Atlantic coast ports, sub
mitted by the Texas Oil company,
and of $3.65 on 10000 barrels, sub
mitted by the Standard Oil COM
pany, constituted the total of bids
received. These prices, it was said,
show practically no concession
from the prevailing market quota
tions.
Secretary Daniels recently stated
he would insist on an adequate
supply of fuel oil for the nations
fighting ships at reasonable"
prices.
The navy's fuel oil requirements
on the Atlantic coast will continue
to be supplied under contracts
which do not expire until June 30.
The navy has no contracts for the
Pacific coast, however. and is meet
ing its requirements there by ex-
ercising communicating authority
under the Lever act, tentative
price subject to later adjustment
having been agreed upon with the
producers.
Whether this course will be re-
sorted to on the east coast will be
determined at conferences soon to
be held by Secretary Daniels and
other naval officials.

NEW RESERVATION TO

General Declaration of Inter-

W MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wiREl
Washington, March ia gem
eral declaration of international
policy, under which the United
States would view with grave con-
ern" any future upheaval theaten-
ing the peace and freedom of Eu-
rope, was agreed on by republi-
can senate leaders today and pre-
sented as q new reservation to the
peace treaty.
Intended to replace the more def
mite pledges of article ten. the res
ervation is to be pressed in the
senate as the farthest step the re-
publican leaders are willing to go
toward abandonment of American
isolation and participation in Euro
pean conflicts. It's text follows:
1T shall be the declared policy
of this government that the free
dom and peace of Europe being
again threatened by any power or
combination of powers the United
States will regard such situation
with grave concern, and will con-
slider what, if any, action it will
take in the premises
drafted the reservation in consulta-
tion with other republican leaders
and introduced in the senate at the
end of day of debate on the irish
fuestion which delayed treaty ac-
tion. 1t generally was predicted
tonight, however, that the ratifica-
ton roll call would come Friday or
Saturday.
Not many democrats had an op-
portunity tonight to study the new
republican proposal and 1t was un-
certain how much support 1t would
command from that side of the
chamber. Some senators predicted
however, that ii might have the
effort of softening the resentment
OF the administration over the re-
publican article ten reservation aad
will win over enough democ~2
votes to ratify the treaty.
A claim of further gains in
breaking down administration re-
sistance was made on the republi-
can side during the day and some
leaders were asserting tonight that
the roll call would show a total
uery close to the two-thirds re-
uuired to ratify with the republican
reservations. 1t is understood to
be the purpose, if ratification fails,
10 reconsider and take a second
vote in the hope that after they
have made their record of opposi-
ton, i handful more of the demo-
cratic senators will leave the ad-
ministration's lead and save the
treaty from another failure.
The new reservation follows the
general outline of declaration,
which was contained in resolution
introduced several months ago by
senator Knox, republican, Pennsyl
vania, and never acted on by the
senate. Those who support it de-
clare that while it would leave the
United States free from any defi-
mite promise to intervene in Euro
pean affairs, it also would give
evidence of tho nations vital in
terst in any future war such as tie
one just closed.
