OIL CONSERVATION
COMMITTEE NAMED
President Appoints Body to
Carefully Study National
Defense Problems.

Estimates of the general board of
the Navy that at the present rate OF
production there is but twenty years
OF oil supply within the limits of the
United States led President Coolidge
yesterday to appoint commission TO
ascertain the best means of conserv-
ing the nations oil. The commission
will be intrusted with review of the
situation in each of the naval oil

signment of additional public land,

tected reserves than the present ones.

to serve on the commission: George
survey: Rear Admiral Hilary p.
Jones, T. 5. NJ, president of the Navy
general board, and former command
er-in-chief of the United States fleet.
and r. d. Bush of the bureau of
mineroiogy of the state Of California.
President Issues Statement.
In announcing the commission,
President Coolidge issued this state
ment:
THE purpose for which the naval
oil lands were set aside was to pro-
vide reserves for the future. In
order to do this in the best manner
the oil should be, wherever possible,
retained in the ground. Where this
is not possible however, it should be
retained in takagetfaboTe ground.
This oil is an important part of the
national insurance.
"At the present rate of production
here is estimated to be but twenty
years of oil supply within the limits
exhausted We will be dependent upon
foreign sources for our supply. In
time for war such supply will GER
tainly be jeopardized and possibly cut
off. Unless, therefore, the Navy has
conserved in this country sufficient
oil wherewith to fight a war, our ma
tional security is seriously endanger-
ed.
THE general board of the Navy.
which has made careful study of the
problem of national defense, has
recommended a President commission
to give more careful study to the fuel
question. In view of present condi-
tons, i have decided to appoint this
commission now. This commission
will have the same access to data and

"This commission will have as its
mission the general study of this prob
lem. but specifically it will review the
situation in each one of the Navy's S
reserves, and endeavor to ascertain
whether II will be possible by assign
ment of additional public land, trans
fers. trades. purchases or otherwise, to
create larger better protected re-
serves than those existing at present.
This not only pertains to the United
States proper. but in addition to such

CALL CHILD LABOR

Favorable Report Ordered for
Resolution by House Ju-
dietary Committee.

Favorable report of resolution
proposing a child labor amendment to
the Constitution was ordered today
by the House judiciary committee.
The committee approved, without
change. the resolution introduced by
Representative Foster, republican,
Ohio. Republican leaders have given
assurance that the House will have
an opportunity to vote on the ques-
tion at an early date.
Fourteen members OF the judiciary
committee favored the resolution while
six, among them Chairman Graham, an
nounced they would oppose 1t on
the floor Mr.. Foster will lead the
fight for the resolution.
The Supreme Court has twice de-
clared child labor laws unconstitu-
tional.
Representative Graham said that
the attack on the resolution would
be based on the contention that there
is too great a tendency to tamper
with the federal Constitution when
there is no pressing need for amend
ments. and the belief that regula-
ton of child labor is properly state
function.

The committee ordered a favora-
BILE report on the bill granting the
District Commissioners authority to
close a part of an alley between o
and P streets and to open up new
cross-section alleys at the same loca-
ton.
This legislation is required to allow
the colored vocational school to erect
new building, for which appropria-
tion has been made. The District
owns the property fronting on o
street and on p street. which back s
up on this alley. Maj. Holcomb, from
the office of the Engineer Commits
sioner, explained to the committee
that il was desired to erect the new
school across this alley. The Com
missiorers now have authority to
close the alley, but they lack authori-
ty to use any of the land purchased
for school purposes to open up cross
section alleys on either side of the
new school so that an outlet to the
main alley may be afforded.
Representative Stalker of New
York was authorized to make the
favorable report to the House.

stride forward, when plans were
made by Director Hines of the Vet
