FRENCH PRAISE
YANK OIL DEAL
Guadeloupe Senator Says II
Does Not Forecast
E, Monopoly.

PARIS, Nov. Ex-senator Henry
Berenger. representing the island
OF Guadeloupe. and one of the most
important figures in French oil
transactions, having been the allied
commissioner for petroleum dur
ing the war, declares that the
deal between A. c. Bedford, presi-
dent of the Standard Oil Company,
and France establishing a branch
company here, Is in every respect
highly satisfactory for France"
and that it in no way forecasts q
Standard Oil monopoly.
Senator Berenger indicated that
the Standard Oil Co. had to make
its foreign policy conform to the
regulations of the French govern
ment, which is somewhat different
from the tactics usually employed
In its deals with other foreign ma
tions, and expressed the belief that
competition with. big European re-
fineries would prove advantageous
to France in lowering the price of
petrol.
In its relations with Germany the
American company, through the me-
dium of one OF it's branches, the
Deutsche Amerikanische Petroleum
Gesellschaft, obtained the right of
priority for all petroleum delivered
and at the same time payment in
cash for all petroleum sold.
This accord abolished the econo-
mic independents of the. German
Reich, which was obliged to reserve
to the Standard Oil Company so per
cent of its production of petrol and
"a per cent of it's whole petroleum
output. OF course the Standard Oil
Company has been accustomed to
such summary methods in other
countries. In Italy when Premier
Orlando tried to establish a monop-
oily in petroleum IL was rumored that
the Standard Oil threatened to cease
sending all supplies. The same thing
is said to have occurred in Rumania.
When Bratiano attempted to monop-
olize petroleum the Standard Oil
threatened to stop American credit
and the expectation of commodities
and much-needed fats. need hardly
say that France did not consider
this deal as a take 1t or leave IL"
proposition II, the contrary had
occurred we had decided not to do
any more business with the Standard
on Company, and would have dis.
pensed- for more than a year with
American petroleum.
1t is interesting also that when
former Premier Clemenceau pro-
posed to the chamber Of deputies
In, 1919 the establishment of a state
monopoly in petroleum the directors
OF tho Standard Oil Company. in
cludfng Messrs. Bedford, Asche and
Moftatt, many times attempted. al
rectly or Indirectly, to oppose the
scheme. Pressure was even brought
to bear. on me by delegates of the
American company. but I remindes
them that the national regime of
petroleum Is and always will remain
a question of internal policy, sub
ordinated to the sovereignty of the
state. -

LET AMERICA DO IT

The mayor of st. Etienne, France
is appealing to Americans of Texas
and Oklahoma, formerly of the '36th
Division A. f. F., to restore his
town to it's pre-war prosperity and
thrift. 1t was the men of the Seth
who on October 8, 1918, operating
with the French, drove the Germans
out of st. Etienne.
The mayor is simple doing on a
small scale what Europe wishes to
do on large scale-restore and re-
habilitate at American expense after
we have routed the Germans.
However, much as we might be
inclined toward philanthrophy, the
democratic administration has piled
up few billion dollars of debts, un-
necessarily incurred. to be sure,
but to which the honor of the ma
ton is pledged, which will give this
country plenty to do to maintain
our own prosperity: and republican
thrift as exemplified in the last con-
gress is the safest assurance of
such maintenance.

held Thursday night brought out the
fact that unless help is given a great
many persons who should be enum-
Grated here will be missed. 1t devel-
oped that the enumerators frequently
find no one at home and that single

gestlon was made that the enumera-
tors visit every business house and
check up there on the employees.
There are three persons in the office
of The Star-Mirror who have not
been counted and probably will not
be unless the enumerators call at the
office. They are not at their board
ing places during the day time and
have had no opportunity to give the

1t has been suggested that every
person who has been missed report
