HURRY TO DENY
British Foreign Office- Disavows
Responsibility for Statement.
Refuses to Admit Anglo-Ameri
can Relations Strained.

London, Feb. 9.-The foreign Of
flee today denied responsibility for
the statement On Anglo-American re-
lations made to the American cores
pondents by one OF the highest Brit
ish officials engaged in Anglo-Amer-
lean affairs.
The quick reaction from America
was such that despite the fact the
statement was made by this high off,
cial at the foreign office, the follow
ing official communique was issued:
The statement on Anglo-American
relations, quoted in the English press
as appearing in the American press,
was made without the authority or
knowledge of the foreign office and

views of the foreign office. upon the
present or future state of relations be-
tween the two countries. On the con-
trary, the foreign office is confident
that any question arising between
Great Britain and the United States
can well be settled without difficulty,
! whether with the existing or the sue
ceeding administration.
The foreign office statement, lit is
noted, does not deny that the state
ment was made, but declined to accept
responsibility for it. The statement
was made in the presence of many
witnesses. The United Press dispatch
quoting it, was submitted to the for

mally approved as being a correct re-
port of the interview. The United
Press was further informed that tbs
foreign office had no objection to the

Be Careful What You

Most soaps and prepared shampoos

injurious. as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified

and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get Mulsified at any
drug store, and-a few ounces will last
the whole family for months.

Hands OF U. s. Fields.
English UnderselI Americans
From Our Own Wells.

Washington. Feb. 9.-Senate action
to gain information on the world oil
situation and its bearing on Americas
commercial and diplomatic relations
with other nations will be demanded
shortly, Senator Phelan, California,
announced today.
Phelan today declared a crisis is at
hand in the oil situation. Unless a
wise policy is adopted without delay.
he declared, the American merchant
marine and navy will be left without
adequate future supplies of oil.
Call on State Department.
Phelan's first step will be to seek
action on a resolution calling on the
state department for information con-
corning determinations said to be
practiced against American oil men
desiring to develop foreign fields and
inquiring what has been done to pro-
tect American rights.
1.-The oil question affects national
prosperity intimately" said Phelan.
.-Oil is an economical fuel and coal

pete against oil burners. Our mer-
chant marine and navy alike are de-
pendent on it.
No L. 8. Alien Law.
There is no law to prevent foreign
ers from taking our oil or possessing
themselves of our oil lands. The
president should have the power to
lay an embargo and the states snould
deny ownership to aliens The adj
ministration should demand for
Americans. equal rights for exploita-
ton of mandatory territory and estab-
lish reciprocal treatment for warships
and merchant marine in foreign wa
tiers.
Here is a concrete example of what
is happening. British interests are
buying oil properties in California
without hindrance and own now.
perhaps 80 per cent of the states oil
resources. The Dutch-Shell COM
pany, an English corporation. recently
sold more than 100000 barrels to ia
pan and in Japanese tankers it was
shipped from San Francisco to Japan.
THE price of that oil was $1.S6 per
barrel. and at the same time, local
consumers were charged $685."

Representative Cram Would Give Gov.
ernor $4,000 to Catch Criminals.

Representative Cram today intro
duced a bill in the house giving the
governor reward fund of $4,000 for
use in apprehension Of criminals of all
classes. A maximum reward of 5000
in any case is provided under terms
of the bill.

tiOnaI Bodies at Outs.

; Washington, Feb. 9.-Charges that
government bureaus having to do with
soldier relief are packing the COM
mittee of the American Legion with
bureau employees who are members
of the legion" were made before the
legion's executive committee here to-
day by Abel Davis of Chicago, chair
man of the disqualification committee.
LAS a result the work of the legion
in soldier relief matters is being great
ly handicapped" said Mr.. Davis, who
added that at the Cleveland conyen-
ton 'the bureau licked US to a fragile
in all matters relating to veterans re-
lief and the legion wondered how it
was DONE"
Bureaus Do Not Cooperate.
Speaking on the proposed CONSOLE
dalton of the bureau of vocational
education, war risk insurance and a
part of the public health service, Mr..
Davis declared:
Heads of the bureaus do not get
along together, nor do they cooperate
for the best interests of the service
men. Statements by them, which they
have made to us repeatedly. have no
truth in them. They spend the greater
part of their time getting up records;
in other words, preparing their alibis
beforehand"
May Exclude Federals.
After hearing Mr.. Davis, the execu-
tive committee recommended to the
state divisions of the legion that they
refrain from appointing government
bureau employees on their committee.
Mr.. Davis also charged that former
service men were being kept in pri-
waite hospitals that were "indescribably
filthy and in which conditions are ter
rible."
He said that after the men were
placed in such hospitals, they were
left without visits or inspections by
representatives of the public health
service. He read a report of a survey
of a. hospital in Illinois made by rep
resentatives of the legion.
This said that white and negro pa
tents slept in the same room, that the
pharmacy containing narcotics and
drugs of all sorts was left unlocked
and that when asked if female pa
tients used the same bath room as the
males, the doctor in charge stated
that 'The women only remained about
two weeks at time and did not take
any Baths
Service men are now being removed
from this hospital. Mr.. Davis said.
