Oil Drilling Equipment
Put Under Export
Control System
Action May Seriously
Affect Russiu's
Expansion Plans
BY tie Associated Press.

BY tie Associated Press.
In a move which may seriously
affect Soviet Russia's huge oil-ex-
pansion program, the United States
Government yesterday placed oil
drilling and refining equipment
under the export license control
system.
Radium, uranium and calf and
kid (undersized cattle) skins also
were added to the many products
already under license control for
national defense purposes.
Cattle and horse hides have been
subject to export license for some
time, but, despite this, Russia has
been purchasing large quantities of
leather goods in the United States.
The most serious effect of the
new order on Russian purchases,
however, was expected to be in re-
stricting export of oil drilling and
refining equipment which Russia
was said to need to carry out her
oil development program.
Large shipments of portable drill
ing rigs and other equipment have
been made to Russia in recent
months and additional purchases of
some s1O,OOO,000 worth were said to
be contemplated.
President Roosevelt's order yes
terday expanding the control sys-
tenn is effective February 10. 1t was
ascribed to national defense require
ments, and there was no official
comment on how it might affect
Russian purchases.
British authorities, however, have
