OIL MEN TO GIVE
 $lOQ,OOO A YEAR
 FOR PUBLICITY
Will Be Used To Tell Ma. ton Story Of Oil,
 Say Officials
CBy Associated Press.)

FORT WORTH, Tex, Dec. H. One hundred thousand dollars annual H will be- spent by the nations oil intsrsgts to tell the nation the story of oil, the board of directors of the American Petroleum institute decided today.
 A resolution adopted calls for the ap- pointment of public relations commit tee composed of nine persons that shall function under the auspices of the in- stitute. The committee would, accord ing to the resolution, assemble the facts of the petroleum industry from all reliable sources and to distribute such facts of the industry and to the public in such manner as it seems wise and proper to attain the objectives of informing the industry and the pub lie of the facts of the oil business"
 Tho institution of the public rela- hons committee, which is regarded as one of the most important steps ever taken by the organization, is the cul- mination of a movement begun last May by oil trade associations led by the Mid Continent Gas and Oil compa- ny of Tulsa.
 Today the board took decisive action. The paragraph naming the sun WHICH is to be spent annually is regarded as extremely frank and among oil leaders Is taken as an indication that the pub licity work will be along constructive lines, probably at first taking the form of research work.
 Among other matters which came be- fore the board at its meeting today, was a suggestion that the headquarters of the association be moved from New York to Chicago. No action was taken except to ask the staff of the institute to report on the advisability of the sug- gested removal.
 Decision also was made to hold the next meeting of the board in Colorado Springs Feb. 9 when two matters, 1t is expected, will be heard. One relates to consideration of plans to increasing markets for oil and the other to giving Henry l.. Doherty an opportunity to present officially to the board his oil conservation plan. This action was taken with the approval of MT. Doher, Icy who last night had asked special eting of the institute to consider 1t. Cau> was declined by the board. Call
 was awarded the next meeting
 Id place to be seletced later.

u. S. ENVOY TO
| MEXICO PRAISES
HIS OWN WORKS
Drove Wedge for U. S.
Imperialists


WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-"Relations
between the United States and Mexico
are on more satisfactory basis now
than at any time since the Diaz admin
istration," Charles Beecher Warren,
who is resigning as the American am
bassador to Mexico, declared.
Outspoken in his praise of Presi-
dent Obregon, Warren said that the
Mexican executive, who is soon to be
succeeded in Office by Plutarcho Cal
les, has greater control and more
stable government" than has been &C,
corded the Mexican people since the
reign of Gen. Diaz; the reactionary
old dictator who held his job so long,
by grace Of American interests"
(Hearst, Otis, Guggenheim).
5rot Recognition.
II regard the special mission which
I undertook last year as having been
accomplished" Warren said. II went
as the head of the American commits
sion to negotiate basis for the re-
sumption of diplomatic relations. I
have adjusted all the problems arising
out Of the De la Huerta revolution.
Our government paid taxes to the var
ious ports like Vera Cruz and Pro-
gresso. The Mexican government
sought to recollect the taxes for the
Obregon government after the revolu-
ton and now they have decided not to
collect these taxes.
I'm addition to that 1 exchanged
notes with the Mexican government
agreeing to enter upon the negotiation
of treaty of amity and commerce as
soon as the American government is
prepared to take up these investiga-
tions. The completion of the negotia-
tions have been delayed because the
question of policy will have to be
passed upon by the Senate in conjunc-
ton with the German treaty of amity
and commerce. No treaty Of amity
and commerce has been in existence
between the United States and Mexico
since 1881"
Speaking of conditions in Mexico,
Ambassador Warren said that the
country is taking great interest in
her mines, oil resources and the de-
velopment of national resources.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-08-06

realities of the economic situation and
of the economic possibilities. It's
plans are now related closely to the
actual possible rate of economic de-
velopment in the given circumstances
It's plans are drawn up in advance OF
the period to which they apply. In
many branches of the national econ.
omy it is now possible to draw up
general output and other estimates
for as long period as five years
ahead.
The Caspian is divided into num-
Der of sections, each of which works
out it's plans for the particular
branch of the national economy for
which tits responsible. These plans
are discussed and have to be ratified
by the Caspian itself. They are then
submitted to the Council of Labor and
Defence.
Industry.
The industrial section, like the 9TH
ers, at first worked from hand to
mouth. It's estimates were generally
wide of the mark.
For the year 1929 it drew up
estimates for the coal, oil, ores, salt,
gold, platinum, textile, engineering,
electrical, leather, chemical, tobacco,
paper, and pottery industries.
The proportion of these programs
actually carried out varied from IS
per cent in the chemical and 69.4 per
cent in the leather industries (the
two lowest) to 100 per cent in the
tobacco industry. The average was
1913 per cent. The total number of
workers estimated to be employed
was S75,174 and the number actually
employed S26,905.
The industrial section was of great
service in the organization Of trusts,
the ALLEGATION of credits to special
industries, the regularization of sup
plies of raw materials, the concentra-
ton and combination of enterprises,
the reduction of overhead charges, the
strict control Of accounts, and the
calculation of costs of production.
Agriculture.
The agricultural section took an
active part in 1921 in investigating the
