|bORAH OIL ATTACK
IS HELD bASELESS
Increased Income Has Cut
Losses, Not Meant Profit,
Franklin Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Borah's criticism Of the pro-
posed petroleum production agreements
were answered yesterday by Writ Frank
lin, president of the Independent Pc
troleum Association of America.
Franklin asserted any increase in the
cost OF gasoline had gone to lessen
losses within the industry and not to
increase profits.
In statement he said:
THE Senator says that the price of
gasoline since June has increased at
the rate of $486, 900 900 annually, but
he does not point out that whatever
increase enjoyed so far does not amount
to increase In profits, but rather a
lessening OF the losses OF those engaged
in the industry. Certainly the Senator
would not want to leave the impression
that this represents profits the industry
is enjoying.
In the short time the Senator has
had to observe these contracts, he
comes to the erroneous conclusion that
the public has no voice in the opera
tion of the agreements. no measure of
governmental control or supervision Is
provided for
"All familiar with the agreements, OF
course, recognize that this Is not true
because each agreement provides This
agreement shall not become effective

If you didn't you should, for the
Burlington, Wis, National Liars Club
thought it was SO good that the title OF
promptly transferred from Phil Nc
Carly of Denver, Colo, to the Pennsyl-
vanian.
1t seems, according to Mr.. Ceresa,
that the clock his granddad had was so
old that the shadow of the pendulum
as it swung finally wore whole right
through the back.
The club, which meets annually on
New Year eve, got together last night
and decided that from among 250C
lies entered this year none was as big
a fib as Mr. Ceresas. The entries came
from 40 States and Canada.
The result was announced over an
N. B. C. radio hookup. and with the
"honor" goes a medal that Ceresa can
display with justified pride.
This business of picking the coun-
try's biggest teller of tall ones" had its
origin in Burlington in 1929 as a group
of old timers sat around country
store stove indulging in their favorite
pastime.
Then the rest of the country began
TO hear about It until now It's almost
impossible for a home-towner to win
the coveted medal.
The last time Burlington man won
was in 1880 when Chief Of Police Frank
Beller was picked.

year it travelled to Colorado.
