 BILL SIG NED
 BY ROOSEVELT
Designed to Prevent Ship ments of Illegally Pro-
 duced Product

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.--Presi- dent Roosevelt has signed the new oil control bill designed against shipment of illegally produced oil in interstate commerce.
 The measure fills the gap made in the New Deal when the Su- preme Court held that Section 9-C, of the Recovery Act, was uncon- stitutional.

1t was fairly easy going for the first

something made me stop short and
watch him. saw that he was certainly
not shepherd. He wore a waterproof
coat and colored scarf, and he had
a brown tweed cap. But what made
me stare at him in wonder was his
attitude. He stood beside clump of
gorse, and through pair of field
glasses he was intently looking down
at Falcon Castle.

International News Service

International News Service
A survey of Americas official
relations with Soviet Russia to-
day disclosed American recogn1-
ton of the Moscow regime has
proved a complete failure in so far
as expectations are concerned.
Every important benefit which
the Administration hoped would
accrue from recognition OF the
Soviet regime has failed to mater
ialiZe.
The hoped-for expansion Of
trade, settlement of debts and
non propaganda activities - all
have proved an utter deluSion.
Worse Than Ever
In fact, relations between the
two nations actually are worse
than before recognition was &C.
corded in 1888.
Prior to American recognition,
the unofficial relations between
the two countries were marked by
cordiality. AS a result of Mos
cows outright disavowal of its
solemn non-propaganda pledges,
its deliberate miSinterpreation
of American credit promises, and
the officially described "preposter-
Gus" demands for a debt settle
ment, official relations have be-
come openly strained and on the
verge of a rupture.
The trade expansion illusion Is
one of the most glaring. The
principal argument for recogni-
ton was the hope held for the
development of trade between the
two countries. Proponents of
recognition predicted an irnmedi-
ate expansion of trade, running
into hundreds of millions of dol
lars annually.
Trade Hope Flops
Former Senator Smith w.
Brookhart (R0 of Iowa, investi-
eating Russian trade possibilities
for the Government, predicted
half a billion dollars worth of
purchasing orders awaited Ameri-
can foreign trade in the Soviet
Union once recognition was &C.
corded.
A $350,O0O,OO0 annual American
export trade with the Soviet
Union was predicted in estimates
submitted to the State Depart
ment by private economic experts.
Instead of $350000,000, all the
Yankee traders were able to get
out of Moscow was a promise to
purchase $30,O0O,000 worth of
American goods a year. In return,
this Government had to promise
Soviet Russia all the benefits
which the United States gives any
other nation, except Cuba, in
trade agreements. This $30,000,.
900 represented only $15,000,000
more than the value of American
exports to Soviet Russia the year
before recognition was granted.

JEWRY.

LUCERNE, Switzerland, Sept. 3
O.N.SD.-Germany was strongly
condemned by the World Zionist
Congress today for prosecuting its
Jewry.
The congress adopted a resolu-
tion embodying the condemnation
and stating the position Of Jewry
throughout the world was being
undermined by the German cam,
paign. The resolution stated:
"The congress raises its voice
against the systematic depriva-
tiOn of the rights of German
Jewry, which is growing in in
tensity and undermining the
moral and material existence Of
Jews in Germany.
cat the same time the defa-
nation of the entire Jewish ma
tiOn is also being conducted by
the German government with a
view to undermining the Jewish
position in the whole world.
"The congress considers 1t IS
o legitimate and an important
duty to repudiate in the name
of the Jewish people the defa-
nation of Jews on account of
their racial origin as contra
diction of the elementary prin-
ciples of morality and justice.
"The protest against this de-
privatiOn of rights does not con-
Germ only the Jewish people, but
Is a question of defense of the
principle of equality Of rights
for all peoples.
"The congress will fight for
their rights of existence as a
nation, and defend its rights in
other countries. The congress
appeals to all peoples of the
world to assist Jews in their
fight for defense of its honor as
. guarantee of their existence"
