HOT OIL CARRYING
ORDER PROMISED
Secretary Ickes Will Vigor-
ousIy Enforce Law Prohib-
iting Transportation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Vigorous enforcement Of President
Roosevelt's order prohibiting the trans
portation of hot" oil in Interstate
commerce was promised today by Sec
retary of the Interior Ickes, who was
charged with its administration.
The Presidents order prohibited the
transportation in interstate and foreign
commerce Of oil produced or withdrawn
from storage in violation Of State con-
servation laws.
Ickes said the order was sweep
ing enough" to reach the viOlators OF
State laws and that immediate and
drastic action would be taken
The Interior Department, in formal
statement today. served notice that
any one who produces and transports
oil in excess Of State allotments will
be subject to the penalties provided
in the law, fine Of 81 900 and six
months Imprisonment.
1t announced the division of investi-
cations. headed by Louis r. CLAWS, has
initiated investigations which will bring
speedy prosecutions of those found
guilty of violating the law.
The department said it would concen-
trate agents in those districts where
the greatest evasions OF the law have
occurred in the past While no area
was mentioned. it was understood this
referred particularly to the flush oil
fields of East Texas.
The division of investigations already
was inquiring into reports that 600 tank
cars were hurriedly shipped out OF
Texas Thursday in anticipation Of Gov
ernment action.
The President was given the power to
prohibit the interstate transportation OF
oil illegally produced or withdrawn In
the industrial recovery act.

officials of the aeronauticS branch
of the Commerce Department today
said Capt. Stephen Darius and Stanley
Thomas Girenas, who left New York
early today on flight to Lithuanla
had no permission to fly over or to
land in any country en- route.
An official, when notified of the take
of of the plane Lithuanica, said:
THE aviators came here about two
months ago to arrange for the neces-
sary permission for the flight. This in
cluded approval Of their qualifications
and ability to undertake such night
and the approval Of their equipment.
"As far as theiy equipment was con-
cerned. it was satisfactory. The branch
also approved the competency of the
flyers.
But when they sought permission to
fly over Iceland, Ireland, England, Den
mark, Germany and other countries that
might be on their route they wanted
the Commerce Department to pay the
expense of cablegrams. This involved
about $10O, and the department held
they should pay it. They did not want
to do this and sought permission by
mail. which requires at least so days.
They phoned here two days age
and we're advised that permission to
land in the countries on their route
had not been granted. They indicated
they had received, through some friends
here and in Lithuania. permission to
land in that country.
If they make the flight to Lithuania
successfully they probably will be al
right. But If they land in some other
country without having permission to
fly over it. it will be embarrassing to
the United States and to them.
1T is not quite right. however. to
say they took off in direct defiance OF
the department in view of the approval
of their qualifications and equipment
but if they land in country where
they have no permission they will be
subject to a spanking"
Later the State Department said II
had obtained permission for the Lithu-
anica to fly over Newfoundland, but
had not heard from any other coun-
try on their route.

LONDON, July 15-The American
delegation was considering today final
effort to forward President Roosevelts
plan Of worldwide price raising as the
World Economic Conference recessed
for the week end.
The tentative draft of resolution
outlining monetary and commercial
policies to achieve this end was under
discussion by some Of the American ex-
perts and delegates.
The delegation had not yet decided,
however, whether it would be any use
to introduce such a measure In the
final fortnight of the parley, whose lead
ers agreed yesterday upon cessation OF
deliberations on July q.
Seek to Avoid Dispute.
The American delegates were deslrous
of avoiding any steps which might re-
vive the controversy with the gold oloc
which has taken exception to American
policy as regards dollar stabilizatlon,
The American thesis is that hlgner
price level will permit eventual none
,ary stabilization which is so ardently
desired by the gold countrles. In SUM- at
quarters there was hope, therefore, tnat
the price-raising resolution might pe SO
rhrased as to bring the gold group ana

The Brazilian delegation submitted
to the Economic Subcommisslon on Co

The draft provides for restrictions on
new coffee plantations or renewals OF
existing plantations and for increasing

SEES RAIL HEADS
SALARIES TOO HIGH
Eastman Tells Executives
Their Pay Is Symptom of
"Bo0m Disease"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Joseph B. Eastman, Federal co-ordi-
nator of transportation, yesterday told
group of the highest salaried rail
executives Of the country that the ad-
ministration feels their salaries are too
high. All declined to comment, on
leaving the meeting.
Mr.. Eastman said the salaries which
many executives receive-some in ex-
cess Of or near 100000 annually-are
symptom of the boom disease"
Country Still Suffering.
This country has been and still Is
suffering to a degree that it probably
never has suffered before. Millions are
out of work. Still more millions are
living on a pittance. Thousands Of
railroad employees have no jobs at all
and thousands more are working part
time. Thousands of investors in rail-
road securities are receiving no return, -
Eastman said
Il know that salaries have been re-
duced, but I ask you to consider whether
they have been reduced enough in view
Of prevailing conditions, and what am
thinking about are the salaries at or
near the top"
The red-haired co-ordinator told the
executives he planned to canvass the
railroad situation as complete picture,
seeking out every available fact that
would At into plan for putting the rail
carriers on better business basis. The
experiences of other countries, he said,
also will be studied.

being put on it by cheering Congress-
men and job-hunters. ;,
The practical way it will work is
described by a competent Democratic
congressional authority privately as
follows:
All first. second and third class
Postmasters in Office now must take
Cipil Service Examinations. They
are oil Republicans. Democratic
candidates for the jobs also wtH take
Examinations. They mill be graded
so per cent on business ability.
Democrats mill do the grading.
The three with the highest marks
will be considered final candidates
Their names will be submitted to the
Democratic Representative. He VIII
make the final choice.
A Republican might squeeze through
under that system. If he did 1t woulo
be an oversight.
The Democrats are actually not be-
ing much more ruthless now than sue
cessful parties usually are.
Go Further Than G. o. p.
The thing that makes it seem worse
this time is that they are going further
down the line than the Republicans did
IL years ago-so many people are out
of jobs today that any kind OF Gov
ernment position is legitimate spois.
The Offices of those who are supposed
to have influence with the Democratic
administration look like basement bar
gain counters these days. Many seek
ing jobs are obviously in want.
The offices OF Senators Byrd OF
Virginia, Harrison OF Mississippi
and King OF Utah are sDamped all
the time. Senator Kings position Is
probably the uorst. He is trying to
keep al those jobs 1Dhich er-Send-.
tor Smoot got for the citizens OF
Utah.
The most artful patronage dispenser
of them all is William F. Stevenson:
He is chairman of the Home Owners
Loan Corporation. His old South Caro-
lima friends call him "Seaboard Bill.
but the reason is obvious. His new
intimates here have switched it to
Steamboat Bill" for no reason at all.

List Taken on Cruise.
1t was made plain at the White
House that requests for funds to build
municipally-owned light and water
plants were likely to receive favorable
consideration.
The Casper-Alcova flood control and
reclamation project on the North Platte
River in Wyoming was cited as a pos
sible favorable example of a self-liqui-
dating proposal such as the President
has in mind. 1t had been represented
to him that the SIS, 5000, 900 cost of this
would be fully returned to the Govern
ment.
The President carried with him on
his cruise special list of flood control
and rivers and harbors projects and
will discuss them tomorrow with Secre-
tary Ickes, the public works admins
traitor.
1t was definitely indicated yesterday
at the White House that the 9-foot
channel for the Upper Mississippi River
would be on the list finally approved.

In an admiring way, a Democratic
politician recently suggested Mr.. Stew
enson should be charged with depopu-
lating the State of South Carolina. He
was trying to infer that Mr.. Stevenson
had installed most OF the citizens Of
that State in his Government agency.
Backs Merit System.
Mr.. Stevenson has already announced
that the merit system is all right in its
place He IS also the author Of the
line which is slogan for the job-seek-
ing army:
Naturally we are not choosing Re-
publlcans to carry out policies OF a
Democratic administration.
The smart boys 1pho are buying
rye instead OF iDhedt are not so
smart. They haDe figured out that
the processing tar Uiu 90 on whedt
but not ON rye. They do not knoD
that the ldu permits the tdring OF
any competing article. The brain
trustees do knotU it and may act.
The story going around the country
that Mr.. Roosevelt might make up a
super-cabinet composed of Messrs. Hoo
yer, Meyer and Baruch is pure in
vention The highest administration
officials considered it good joke when
they heard it.
The excuse that Prof. Berle is only
working out regulations for the Glass
bank law sounds somewhat thin. There
is an army of technical regulation
experts in the Treasury who can take
care of that and will.
Railroad officials say carloadings will
soon be running 100000 week and
more. They see no reason to stop
cheering.
A degree Of hardship on individ-
uals always results from a change in
administration. At least two Republi-
cans who lost minor places have COM
mitted suicide. They were no worse
off than many of the Democrats seek
ing their jobs.
