The data here given taken in con-

Trade Report ON Deal.
Yet these foreign oil companies
have not been entirely dependent
for their welcome here upon the
liberality Of American laws and
upon that Of the small producer
hoping for a competitive market.
The Federal Trade Commission, in
its report on it's 1922 investigation
Of foreign ownership in the petro-
leum industry, says:
THE commissions Investigation
disclosed that certain persons
prominently identified with some of
the principal producing companies
In the mid-continent Oil fields on
their own initiative had sought to
dispose of a minority interest in an
important American oil producing
company to Dutch-Shell interests.
The Dutch-Shell company turned
down this proposition, it appears,
only because the wQuld.be American

and what proportion came from
alien interests operating here, it is
impossible to estimate.
American companies in the mad
race with foreign concerns to rush
the oil out OF this country into the
world market have been driven to
the incorporation of a multitude Of
subsidiary selling companies under
the laws of the countries in which
they propose to operate.
For instance, there is the Anglo

Status Of u. S. Companies.
II you should be at first inclined
to view this Incorporation of Amer
lean company subsidiaries abroad as
nice return of tit for tat of for.
eign invasion here, you must think
again. Though the principal pur-
pose OF these organizations is the
same--to get American products out
OF this country and into others at
the utmost speed and profit--there
all similarity ends. Their status
here and abroad is utterly different.
Foreign oil companies operating
in the American field are entitled,
under the easy laws through which
they were invited to enter and to
take possession, to sell their prod
ucts when and where they will.
Only under the exercise of extra.
ordinary war powers could this
privilege be interfered with. In
deed, exercise Of such power might
very conceivably lead to war where
the companies are backed by
strong and aggressive government.
American companies, on the other
hand, are bound to deliver oil as
contracted for to their foreign sub.
8 salaries, irrespective of urgent needs
here, or face expensive litigation and
possible confiscation of their prop
critics abroad. The situation might
become especially embarrassing

At present Sultan is dieting. He's

NO NORTH; NO SOUTHEAST
IDAHO

Weiser Signal: That was the emf
nently fitting slogan for the editorial
caravan on the journey to the north
ern part of the state. Because of the
lack of direct communication by rail-
road, the sections have been isolated
from each other and there has been
considerable difference in relation
to affairs of state and at times a con-
fiict of interest in an economic way.
For these reasons we have often been
at cross purposes with each other and
as consequence the best interests of
the state have suffered.
Now the North and South highway
has been dedicated to the public use
and has been made passable to traf-
fic of all kinds and it has not been
fully completed. The distance be-
tween the north and south has been
reduced by nearly half and we are
brought into closer relationship with
each other. With the opening of this
great thoroughfare the people of the
northern part of the state are as
near the state capital as the people
of the southeast, and their influence
in all matters relating to the states
welfare will in the future doubtless
be just as great. Economically we
need each other and the closer and
more harmoniously we can work to-
gether the more certain will be our
prosperity and economic greatness.
Not only have we gained polite
ally and economically by the compile
tion of the North and South road, but
we have gained in that which is of
far more Importance than material
things. We are learning to know each
other better and to appreciate each
other more. Lasting friendships were
made on the trip by every member Of
the party and the cementing of these
ties will prove a greater boon to the
state than anything else. Idaho is a
great state and Idaho is populated by
the salt of the earth-bOth north and
south. A firm union of such means
future greatness and statewide pros
perity and happiness.
