So"
My answer to my own question
is that NRA should attempt intra-
state regulation through codes
wherever it Is clearly necessary to
protect interstate commerce and
not otherwise, and that il is not so
necessary in service industries"
Johnson said price fixing under
NRA is just a big bugaboo." He
asserted only nine codes contained
any provisions for price fixing or
rate control.
Turning away from MIRA proper,
Johnson said "one OF the most
valid criticisms against the whole
New Deal is the fact that from
time to time 1t has sorely lacked
coordination"
"One agency" he added. has
been vigorously pushing a policy in
one direction. while a coordinate
agency has just as vigorously been
pushing a conflicting policy in a

Johnson contended that due to

AUSTIN, April 10. -Rt-Texas
had her third governor In O week
Thursday. He was Senator Ken
Regain Of Pecos. president pro
tenn OF the senate.
Senator Regain succeeded to the
chief executiveship during the alb
sence from the state Of Governor
James v. Alfred. who was In WASH
ington, and Lieutenant-G Governor
Walter r. woodul. who was In
Oklahoma City.
Regain was "inaugurated" in
formally at a breakfast attended
by most Of the members OF the
senate. Speaker Coke Stevenson OF
the house OF representatives. and
former Governors w. p. Hobby OF
Houston and James z. Ferguson OF
Austin.
II never thought much Of the
Thomas bill" said Senator Clint
Small Of Amarillo, n Of the
speakers, but II has brought west
Texas her first governor"
Governor Alfred went TO Wash
ington to attend q hearing on the
bill, which would give the federal
government increased authority to
regulate the oil industry.
1T Is to be regretted on behalf
Of the people Of Texas that Mr..
Regan's term will be so short"
said former Governor Hobby, but
perhaps 1t is just as well for him.
Senator r. J.. Holbrook OF Gal
weston suggested that Reagan re-
sign and other senators be elected
at ten-minute intervals as pres
ident protein and resign thereby
giving each a shift as governor.
Others wished him a successful
administration.
His administration was to be q
short one. Woodul intended to re-
turn TO Texas within the day,
giving Regain a term Of only q few
hours.
In the governors office. Regan's
first official act was to sign a bill
OF his colleague. Senator Claud
Westerfield Of Dallas. II would
place additional restrictions on the
sale Of estates Of minors by gaurd-
ians.
Il guess / am safe in signing IT,"
he said. noting II was passed I'M
animously.
Exercising. he said. what seems
10 be n Of the prerogatives Of
an acting governor" he appointed
eight lieutenant colonies on the
governors staff, sent a message TO
the legislature. granted an eXtradi-
ton and began a study Of several
clemency records.
Legislation he requested would
confer the power Of eminent do
main on all state and federal
agencies and upon all corporations
to acquire lands necessary for
public works projects.
He planned to sign as acting
lieutenant governor a house bill
TO extend for two years the Rio
Grande Compact Of Texas. Colo
RADIO and New Mexico. and later TO
approve it as acting governor. He
was author Of a similar senate bill

JAPS RECEIVE
new PROTEST
SENT BY u. S.
Manchoukuan Policy
On Oil Violation
OF Open Door Is
American Claim

WASHINGTON. April ls.-IR-
The United States Thursday vent q
note 10 the japanese government
reiterating its protest against the
Manchcukuan oil monopoly as n
violation OF existing treaty provi-
sions and In conflict with the open
door" policy In the far east.
Undersecretary Phillips announc-
Cd that Ambassador Grew at Tokyo
had been instructed to inform the
japanese foreign office that the
United States considered the Man
ehoukuo monopoly, which became
effective April 10. violated treaties
70 which Japan and the United
States are signatories and also ia
pans and Manchoukuo's pledges
that the open door" would permit
equal opportunity in far eastern
trade to all nations.
The American r~eiteration OF sew
era previous protests 10 Japan is
understood to have been based on
this governments opposition to the
setting up OF a monopoly IN oil
which might be extended to other
products In the far east.
The United States proteSt-in the
interest Of American Oil compan-
les doing business In Manchoukuo
was sent 70 Japan as the sponsor
OF the new empire OF Manchoukuo,
which s not recognized by this
country.
The oil companies contend that
their large investments in Man
choukuo are imperilled by the new
monopoly Law, and that they would
lose the future profitable business
which had been built I'D over many
years in that country before Il be-
came an independent state.
The Netherlands and Great Brit
ain made SIMILAR representations to
Japan In the interest or British and
Dutch oil companies.
Japan. In answer to all three
nations. said that since Manchou-
kuo vas an independent state the
representations should have been
sent 70 that government. and that
Japan could not interfere.
The japanese also explained that
since the United States did not
recognize Manchoukuo II could
hardly expect that government TO
observe any pledge OF equality Of
opportunity which might have been
made.
In addition to representations by
the government. interested repre-
sentatives OF American oil compan-
les have held g series OF confer
ences with japanese authorities in
M effort TO formulate an amicable
solution OF the problem. II is under
stood, however. that the ~negotia-
tons in Tokyo recently broke down.
