ed to the ancient designation. At the
same time the name of Seoul, the cap
ital of Korea" was altered to KelJo.
There was a definite reason for these
alterations. Japan wished to mark the
transition of authority. 1t wished to
make the peninsula clearly part OF It's
domain. The name of the capital was
changed simply because Seoul In
Korean meant literally 1.-The capital.
And the capital Of Japan is Toxic, not
Seoul. So Keijo was substituted.
BY the way, I overheard on the train
yesterday afternoon phrase IN the
mouth of one of our Japanese guides
and associates of the trip that had its
interesting implication. He was telling
about the afforestation policy OF the
After the connection with Japan" The

New Authority's Advantage.
Call the new authority by whatever
name is most pleasant and least provoc-
alive, it is evident that 1t has had its
advantages for the Korean people in the
mass, even though they may be in some
cases impatient and In some instances
they may be suffering. The window
vision of the land shows that whatever
may be the authority at Keijo, or else

HOOVER OIL POLICY
BENEFITS RELATED
Rocky Mountain States to
Share in Its Good Effects,
Wilbur Tells Governors.

The Hoover oil conservation program
will be of great future benefit to the
whole country, with no section benefit
ing more than the Rock Mountain
States, Secretary of Interior Wilbur
yesterday informed Cows Dern OF Utah,
Emerson of Wyoming and Adams of
Colorado.
The Secretary's communication to
the three governors was in answer to a
Joint letter written to President Hoover
March 80, discussing the new Federal
oil policy, which Mr.. Hoover referred to
the Interior Secretary for answer.
1T is, of course" the Secretary wrote.
"the instruction of the President and
the desire of myself to deal fairly with
permitees; arbitrary action will not be
taken where equities have accrued and
where development has been undertaken
in good faith.
THE Governments program, how
ever" he continued, must be general
in its scope. as the distribution and use
of oil is not confined to areas where
actual production occurs The simple
purpose of the Government is to reserve
as much oil as possible against the
Overwhelmingly not distant-when
our national supplies diminish"
The governors had suggested that
recognition of equities which may have
been established, both, in applications
for permits and in existing permits
through expenditures Of money, pro-
vided a situation affording a sound
basis for development. The Interior
SecretaryS answer TO this was that it
had been incorporated into the present
policy SO far as existing permits are
concerned
It has never been the practice. how
ever, he said. to recognize equities in
applications for permits arising out OF
expenditures made before the permit
has been issued. The number of in
stances where such equities might be
legitimately claimed, he added, are be-
lieved to be so rare that an exception
to the rule would not seem to be adj
visable under the present policy. If ap-
plicantS have undertaken to drill on the
public domain before they have been
granted permit, the Interior Depart
ment officials contend, they have done
so upon their own responsibility and
without authority of law.

midnight in an pnoccupied four-room
structure. Although all Of the volunteer
fire apparatus in the county responded
the firemen were unable to do anything
because of the lack of water there. They
watched carefully. however. to prevent
the spread of the blaze to the dozens of
nearby oil storage tanks.
Bergman, 1t was said by his COM
panions, was riding on the running
board of an automobile that had fol-
lowed the Potomac engines to the blaze.
AS they neared an intersection close to
his home he leaned one way to balance
himself for the turn and the automobile
turned. the other way, causing him to
lose his grasp.
