OIL PRICES CONTROL
BY GOVERNMENT URGED
Borah Hits Curtailment of Pro-

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
If anybody Is going to control oil
and gasoline prices, Senator William E.
Borah wants the Government to do it.
In statement yesterday, the Idaho
Republican indicated he would approve
legislation to make the petroleum in
dustry subject to Government regula-
lions similar to those now applied to
public utilities. He did not say what
steps he contemplated in that direction,
but asserted:
I'VE certainly will not consent to pro-
duction being controlled without con-
trolling the price the public must pay"
Senator Burah took this position to-
ward administration moves seeking
limitation of production and imports as
a means of relieving the oil industry's
depression. He challenged a plan
evolved recently by the Oil States Ad-
visory Committee to restrict domestic
production as yell as efforts to obtain
an agreement from big companies to re-
duce imports.

He was ranch bred and looked it, al

He was perhaps the only man. certainly
the only unmarried one, who had the

he came in at inconvenient moments
and criticized them tacitly for their I'M

daily resented him.
In either case he was not important;
he was merely the son Of those homely
farmer folk who rented the Lawrence
ranch. Dick had been raised on the
Lawrence ranch, out in Stanislaus; his
mother was q plain spare woman who
knew how to TRY out" lard and clean
chickens, who put up" 300 jars OF
fruit every year and who talked intelli-
gently only on such subjects as the

whose windows were still curtained in

other perched at her feet.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-08-28

The Senators, one-half game ahead of the third-place Yankees, stand a good chance of increasing that advantage during the next two days, for while they are playing the lowly Boston Red Sox the Yankees will be mixing 1t with the formidable Philadelphia Athletics. This alignment will be reversed on Sunday.
 From that point on the schedule gives little or no advantage to either teams, both having approxi- mately the same number of games to play with the other clubs in the league.
 More Opportunity.
 The St Louis Cardinals, already ten full games out in front of the national parade, probably will be one-half notch farther in the lead by nightfall. The Cards meet the Pittsburgh Pirates in the only sch eduled National League game.
 Chicago's Cubs missed & chance to pick up a game on the idle second place New York Giants yes- terday by dividing a doubleheader with the Pirates. Four hit pitch ing by Glen Spencer and Theve- now's triple with two men on was largely responsible off the Pirates 3 to 2 victory in the opener.
 The Cubs won the second game by an eight run rally in the eighth to win II to 4.
 Pinkey Whitney's eighth-inning home run gave the Phillies a to 5 victory over Cincinnati in the only other National league game of the day.
 Back to Work.
 Wes Terrell, whose work has ben spotty ever since he pitched a no-hit game early in the season, returned to form to pitch the Cleveland Indians to Il to 1 triumph over the St Louis Browns. Terrell allowed but four hits.
 The Detroit Tigers pounded five Chicago pitchers for 13 hits and a to victory, in the only other American league game. Vic Sor- rell pitched for the Tigers, and though touched for Il hits, was stingy when hits meant runs.
