WASHINGTON, March 5.-Sen-
ator Charles Curtis of Kansas today
explained the platform on which he
is conteSting for the Republican
presidential nomination.
my platform is simply this" he
said as he twiddled roller blotter
with his forefnger and kept his
eyes on the doings of the Senate.
He was seated at his desk in the
rear of the chamber where he pre-
sides as Republican floor leader.
Continue the Administration
policies" he said, Foster prosperity
and promote economy.
Safeguard legitimate business.
Help the farmer.
don't forget the West.
Enforce the law.
Safeguard religious liberty"
IS Years in Congress
That was an unusually long state
ment from the man who is conduct
ing silent campaign from his Sem
ate seat.
Curtis parsimony in the matter
of words is not due to any reluc-
lance to meet national issues. His
friends say he doesn't need a plat
form. He has a. record. 1t extends
back exactly thirty-flve years to The
time when he first came to Con-
gress.
Since then he has cast his vote as
an expression of his opinion about
national problems, instead of max
ing speeches or statements about
them.
Examination by the United Press
of his votes during the last two Ses-
sionS Of Congress showed he voted
fer the following:
Rivers and narbors development
bill; resolution recommending arbi-
tration in Mexico; debt retirement
in 1927 as against tax reduction; the
McNary- Haugen farm bill; his own
Curtis-Crisp farm bill; the Peppers
McFadden bank bill; resolution
barring Smith of Illinois and Ware
of Pennsylvania; La Toilette resolu-
ton against third presidential
terms; Norris resolution eliminating
lame duck sessions of Congress-; and
the George amendment referring
the power combine investigation to
the Federal trade commission.
Candidate Part Indian
During that time he voted against
only two important proposals: The
Jones bill for government operation
Of the merchant marine and the
Manchester resolution recommend
ing downward revision of the tariff.
Curtis is part Indian. 1t was his
Indian grandmother, Julie Pappan,
who told him one star-lit night in
an Indian camp on the plains of
Kansas that he should leave his In
dian life and go to the city to make
name for himself.
He was jockey for a while and
later drove night hack in Topeka
while he studied law.

Survey Shows British Lead

This is another of a series of articles
on How Long Will Our Oil Last?"
BY RODNEY BUTCHER
NEA Service Writer

Copyright, 1928. NEA Service. Inc.)
WASHINGTON, March 5.-A gil
gantic war for the worlds oil re-
sources, waged by British and Amer
lean interests, has been in progress
for years.
1t has been one of the most i'm
portant factors, if not the most i'm
portant, in international relations
since the World War in Europe.
This oil struggle, extremely fasci-
mating to the student permitted to
penetrate beneath surface appear
anceS, seems likely to become of
vital significance to Americas fu-
ture prosperity, if not to her very
security.
A Few Facts About 1t
It's ramifications are infinite and
it is best to attempt to summarize
forthwith some of the most impor-
tant facts concerning it:
Oil today is the greatest potential
tangible cause Of war between great
nations.
American oil men, led by the
Standard interests, and British oil
men, led by the Royal Dutch Shell
and Anglo Persian companies-the
latter owned largely by the British
government-are vigorously backed
up at every turn by the American
State Department and the British
foreign Office.
1t is virtually certain that some
time in the not to distant future
we will be forced to buy more oil
from foreign sources than foreign
nations now buy from us.
The best Scientific guess" is that
we have five billion barrels of oil
available for production and the
rest of the world has fifty billions.
Produces 10 Per Cent
We produce more than 70 per
cent of the worlds oil production
and apparently are exhausting our
reserves while the rest Of the world
sits tight and keeps its oil under
ground. Western hemisphere pro-
duction is IS per cent of the total.
It has been estimated on both
sides of the Atlantic that British
interests control rs per cent of the
worlds potential supply. If this
estimate is too high, it would ap-
pear that it is certainly not too
high when applied to British, Dutch
and French interests, which gen.
orally work together.
While we allow foreign controlled
corporations to exploit oil fields in
this country, restrictions are set up
against our oil men in the colonies
and spheres of influence of Britain,
France, Japan and the Netherlands.
Our nationals are shut out by
such restrictions from about half
the oil in sight and there has been
mad. catch-as-catch-can scram-
BILE for the rest.

OF FATAL AIR ACCIDENTS
LAID TO CARELESSNESS BY COL LINDBERGH
Flyer Draws Distinction Be-
tween Mishaps and
Crashes of Planes.
Inexperience and Reckless
ness of Flyers Cited as
Causes of Death.
BY COL. CHARLES A. LrNDBERGH.

BY COL. CHARLES A. LINDBERGH.
A while ago pilots at an air mail
field watched a small plane being put
through all sorts of antics close to the
ground. 1t was fairly good plane with
q good motor, but it was being abused.
The amateur pilot climbed sharply,
looped near the ground, banked steeply
only 100 feet up and did other things
which made veteran pilots Shudder.
Then the motor faltered, the plane
slipped, and down it came to crash and
killed both pilot and passenger. That
accident could have been foretold; every
good pilot on the field knew it would
happen. They could not do anything
about it, for there is no way of pre-
venting man from committing suicide
II he will not listen to the advice of
men who know more than he does. And
flying knowledge comes only with long
experience.
There are too many a.rplane crashes
nowadays, and they increase with the
increasing use of airplanes. Most Of
them are avoidable and are due to in
experience or careleSsneSS on the part
of the pilot. There are recorded in the
newspapers almost as many crashes as
oUVOA4lObAAC AL dubOuAOOAAC
smash-up in a part of the country re-
mote from the field of the newspaper
does not attract attention, but any air.
plane crash is apparently news, al
though automobile fatalities are far
more numerous. This is probably due
to the fact that there is tremendous
interest coupled with a natural fear of
airplanes. Every new crash, no matter
what the cause, retards the progress OF
flying.
NIishaps Not Crashes.
I am making a distinction here be-
tween real crashes and mere accidents
in flying. Newspapers can do great
deal to differentiate between the two.
They can educate the public to realize
that a crash is not always the fault of
the plane I have found in reading ac-
counts of airplane accidents that there
are many popular misconceptions OF the
cause of fatalities. A plane going into
a "nose-dive" is put down as COM
mon cause of trouble, whereas few
