|. S. OIL CORPORATION
 APPROVED BY PAYNE

QUINCEY, lll., July 6 The open Secrrtary of the Interior Payne in d report to the Senate Public Lands committee just made public indorSed Senator James D. Phclan'S bill, which authorizes the formation of the Unit ed States Oil Corporation. The meas urc iS planned to dcvcIopc the oil re- sources of foreign countries 50 as to insure an adequate supply of oil for the United States.
 "Thc purpose of the legislation" :" said Secretary Payne, lis to provide the means for further plo
 worldwide search for oil. The public need of an assured supply of oil is so great that the Federal Government stands back of the endeaVor to deveI- op foreign sources of oil to replace in the future what America has exported in the past"
 The Phclan bill provides that the United States Oil Corporation shall be controlled by board of nine di- rectors appointed by the President, and the corporation can explore, de- velopc, refine, transport and store oil and it's products in foreign countries subject to the preferential right of the United States to take all of the sup ply at any time at market prices.
 American citizens must own the majority of the stock, but foreign citizens can hold minority stock.

MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Revenue Agent of the Federal Income Tax Collecting Service
 Forty-fiyc agents have been kept busy at the pier and elsewhere in the city collecting the millions from out going aliens. A small squad in bu- rru established close by the Courts of Special Inquiry at the Ellis Island lend attentive ears to the boasts ot the aliens.
 For months of February, March aud April the reports show that more than S%O.OOO was collected at Ellis Isl- and from alien tax dodgers. while ,nrco times that amount was traced to other localities and the collectors there notified. The reports for May are not yet filed but the amount col lcc,cd is said to have increased witt the increasing flow of immigration.
 "A resident alien" explained Col. Porter, goes to the immigration sta ton to sponsor a relative or friend for admjttaucc to this country, knowing thc governments requirements that a responsible person must guarantee that the immigrant will not become a public charg ge. The resident alien go- eS prepared to state on oath that his income iS ample to safeguard the pub lie against such dependents, Whethcr or no. this resident alien has paid his income tax becomes the immediate subject of interest for our agents. They call the delinquent into con ference and, after allowing such eX cmptions as he may be entitled to, levy tax on the remainder of his sworn statement of income.
 When the tax dodgcr is a rcSiGcu; Of some city or towr not in our dis trict his sworn statement is forward ed 60 the local collectors, who makr the collections. In other cases they are made here and the money sent to the collector of the district wherein the tax dodccr resides. Most moneys so collected range in amounts of from $l5 to $500 and represent taxes due the government on small business con ccrnS and on wages"

Assembly of the city to resist the open

Assembly of the city to resist the open shop movement.
 Quincy is strongly organized la- bor city, the assembly counting a membership of over 1000 and embrac- ing even the fire department. The la bor committee has succeeded thus far in securing the withdrawal of several of the original signerS of the open shop agreement. On the other hand, the open shop association reports the recruiting of some 90 names in addi- ton to the original list, and these, it iS said, more than offset defectionS.
 Retail houses thus far have been slow to endorse the plan, owing to the large number of union men.
