The Importance OF American own

been "unduly exaggerated. Davis

added.
The United States is now produc-

said. THE veritable flood of CHEAP
foreign oil from Mexico, averaging
II 900 900 barrels a month, which is
being imported duty free has created

are fixed upon Sir James Craig, pre-

The whole situation now revolves
around the question whether Sn

down at the conference table with de
