Does About-faee on Pet roIeum Policy Under
 British Pressure

BUCHAREST, Feb. s21.-Pressure of Great Britain and France IS re- ported authoritatively to have led the Rumanian Government to de- cree a banning of shipments of aviation oil to Germany.
 It is reported the decree is in direct contradiction to an arrange ment with Germanys trade envoy, pr. Carl Clodivs, few weeks ago, by which Rumania agreed to in- crease shipments of aviation oil provided increased export taxes were paid.
 The new decree is said to be the latest. of Rumania's desperate at tempts to keep a balance between Germany's demands for fuels and lubricants of her war machine ana the counter demands of the Allies.
 The recent decree is believed the result of a recent note from Brl- tain asking explanation of Ru- mania's petroleum policy toward Germany.

Political Dynasty of Twelve Years Reign, Top-
 pied by Voters ATTORNEY SAM JONES NOMINATED, GOVERNOR
Cleanup of Graft, Corrup- lion Is Promised by
 New Regime

NEW ORLEANS, La, Feb. 2l.-- Huey Longs political dynasty, born twtelve years az othat resulted in dictatorial methods and violence, has died peacefully at the hands of the ballot after one of the longest and bitterest election campaigns in Louisiana States history.
 The voters in the Democratic Gu bernatorial run-off primary swept to defeat Gov. Earl Long, brother of the "Kingfish" who established the political dynasty, and was titu- lar leader of the machine, and nom- mated Attorney Sam Jones, of Lake Charles, to the office of Governor.
 Cleanup Pledge
 Jones is a newcomer to politics but he pledged himself to restore real democracy to Louisiana and re- gain much of the millions of dollars he said the Administration and of flee holders have stolen from the state and jail those convicted of graft and corruption.
 Tally of Returns
 Unofficial returns from 1908 of the states 1703 precincts give the following vote:
 Jones, 258,000.
 Long, 238,000
 Machine Route
 The Long machine rout appears to be complete as the Jones slate for secondary state officers engaged in the runoff primary are going in without a break, together with the anti-machine Legislature and possibly an anti-machlne State Central Committee.
 Jones will take his office as Gov ernor on May IA.
