Antitrust Action 10 Avoid
Conflicts With Oil Control

Attorney General Jackson an
nounced today that antitrust pro-
ceedings in District Court against
% major oil companies and their
affiliates would not be permitted to
interfere with any program devised
by Secretary Ickes.
Making known for the first time
that the Government Is seeking to
settle the oil suit-which is aimed
broadly at ice-fixing-the Attor-
ney General in a statement added:
ITO avoid any conflicts with the
administrative program which may
be established by the Secretary of
the Interior, further negotiations in
the pending proceedings will be sub
mitted to him to the end that the
national defense objectives of the
new oil control shall be in no way
impeded."
The Government instituted the
suit in September after a lengthy
investigation. It was originally in
tended that the Government would
seek also to divorce the marketing
and production facilities of the in
dustry, but this plan was dropped
in the interest of defense. The
Defense Commission questioned the
wisdom of the enforcement in view of
the fact that the industry possessed
transportation facilities vitality need
ed which probably would be dis
rupted by litigation.

Methodist Conference
Sets Forth Policy
For a Just Peace
Urges Development
OfWorId's Resources
For Good of All
B, the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, May 31-A Methodist
peace conference today set forth
policy for "a just and enduring
peace" which demanded that "a
cooperative plan must be worked
out whereby the worlds resources
may be developed for the good
of all"
Great limitation of the economic
and political sovereignty of each
nation was recommended as another
cornerstone in the economic founda-
ton for peace.
Statements on various aspects of
peace were adopted after four-day
exploratory study conference under
the auspices of the Methodist World
Peace Commission. The national
conference was the first of a series
of denominational inquiries, the con-
ferees said, ito create a demand
for peace that will be more than
a truce"
DIR. Schilling Chairman.
The Rev. DR.. S. Paul Schilling of
Washington, chairman of the Study
Commission on Economic Founda-
tion of Peace, drafted a resolution,
adopted by the conference, which
said:
Economic opportunity must not
be restricted to those nations which,
through fortunate circumstances or
previous conquest, control the natur-
al resources of the world. A
cooperative plan must be worked
out whereby the worlds resources
may be developed for the good of all.
The economic as well as the polit-
ical sovereignty of each nation must !
be greatly limited. AS long as
each (nation) remains the sole |
judge of its economic policies and
seeks to carry them out without re-
gard to their effect on other peoples,
war is inevitable. Competitive ma
must, therefore, yield to
cooperative internationalism.'
Wants Trade Barriers Removed.
The resolution urged rapid re-
moval of barriers to a free flow of
goods between nations and prob
ably the establishment of a world
bank with an international cur
rency."
Regarding the domestic phase of
economic foundations, the report
said:
"A more equitable distribution Of
goods and services can be promoted
by furthering producers and con-
sumers' co-operativeS.
I'VE look forward to closer co.
operation between. and the ultimate
combination of, the c. I. o. and the
A. F. L."

Junior Trade Body
Decries Maryland
Truck Weight Law
Official Says Increase in
Axle Louds Makes Stute
Rood Damage 'Guineo Pig
Nv the Associated press.

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, May 31.-A new
truck weight law recently signed
by Gov. O'Conor will make Mary
land a guinea pig" to show the
extent of highway damage from
trucks, a Junior Association of Com
merce official asserted today.
Julian de Bruyn Kops, chairman,
of the associations Traffic Control
and Safety Committee, said the law
increases the maximum axle load
for trucks from 10000 pounds to
%, 400 pounds and raises the gross
weight of heavy tractor semi-trailer
trucks from 81 to "a tons"
The law was signed by Gov. O'Con-
or after Ezra B. Whitman, State
Roads Commission chairman, had
said under prior law truck combi-
nations as heavy as $4,000 pounds
could operate on Maryland high
ways. The new law, he said, makes
the maximum weight OF such COM
binations 62,250 pounds and limits
them to SIS feet in length.
MIR Kops declared Mr.. Whitman
approved the bill although he ad-
mitted that the maximum axle loads
would be increased beyond the limits
permitted by Pennsylvania, Virginia,
Delaware, West Virginia and Ohio,
and although he specifically disap-
proved the increase Of gross weight
allowed the heavy tractor semi
trailer combination"
"The Governor has chosen the
dangerous expedient of permitting
the increases as an experiment, :"
Mr.. Kops said. "Our roads become
testing or proving grounds for the
heavy trucks"

Farm Problem UnsoIved

Agricultural problems in Alsace
and Lorraine are giving renewed
concern to the Berlin government.
They have proved more difficult to
solve than was expected when
French farmers were forced to quit
their holdings to give place to Ger
mans. The original owners took with
them much of their livestock and
farm equipment.
Germany shipped farm animals
and distributed new farm imple-
ments among the German owners. 1t
has been necessary to continue ex-
porting from Germany large guam
titles of foodstuffs to make up for
deficiencies in Alsace and Lorraine,
including meat, butter, flour, sugar
and oil.

Dissatisfied British to Unity
H.. S. Publicity Under Campbell

LONDON, May 31-Important
changes in the British Embassy in
Washington are pending with the
release of Sir Gerald Campbell from
the diplomatic service in order to
take over all British publicity under
the Ministry of Information here.
Acute dissatisfaction with the
handling of British information
work has reached its climax here
and in British circles in Washington.
Ambassador Lord Halifax is under
stood to have decided that the Brit
ish information service in the United
States is entirely inadequate and
should be transferred from the pres

York and Washington to one bureau,
under Sir Gerald, who will be as
sisted by qualified persons to be sent
from here.
An Office will be opened in Chi
cago under a former newspaperman

States.
This is only the beginning of
long overdue reorganization which
is expected to affect not only the
American setup, but also the Ameri-
can departments of the Ministry Of
Information and of the Foreign

Defense Savings Bond
Sales in First Month
Exceed S500,O00,O
Heaviest Receipts From
Drive Expected From
Last Week Of Period
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Treasury officials estimated today
that the first months sales of the
new Defense savings bonds would
exceed S500O00,000 and send the
Federal debt to an all-time high
of approximately $48,500, 900 900.
Actual receipts from the savings
campaign in the first "a days since
it began May l totaled S347 ,86l 900,
but the final week was expected to
bring in the heaviest subscriptions
of the month.
officials pointed out that many
managers of trust funds waited until
the end of the month to buy be-
cause interest on the bonds starts
on the first day of the month in
which they are bought, even though
the purchase is actually made on
the last day of the month.
These officials said the $500. .000, 900
figure would be highly pleasing to
them and recalled that earlier Sec
retary Morgenthau said 100000, 900
would be adequate for this month
Rejecting suggestions from some
congressional and financial quarters
that the campaign has "f1opped,
officials said they planned the cam
paign with the idea of picking up
momentum rather than starting out
spectacularly and then letting sales
lag.
They pointed out that employees
of many large firms are. from time
to time, authorizing employers to
deduct monthly or weekly sums
from their pay chacks for the pur-
chase of bonds. This may be a
major factor, they said, in the
growth of the drive. Places where
such deduction plans have been
started include corporations such
as American Telephone & Tele-
graph Co. and General Electric Co.
and other agencies such as Federal
Reserve Board.

Norris Favors Shift
OF Principal Portion
OF Fleet 10 Atlantic
Senator Doesn't Think
japan Could Attack U. S.
Interests in Pacific Now
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A suggestion that the administra-
ton give serious consideration" to
shifting the main body of the fleet
from the Pacific to the Atlantic was
advanced today by Senator Norris,
independent, of Nebraska.
Senator Norris, only living Senator
who voted against American entry
into the World War, told reporters
that I'VE should decide which is our
most dangerous enemy-Germany
or Japan-and should use our fleet
accordingly"
While declaring that he did not
believe Japan could launch any i'm
mediate attack against American
interests in the Pacific, the veteran
Nebraskan added that this country
should keep at least protective
naval force within striking distance
of the Far East.
Opposes Accord With Japan.
Told by reporters that President
Roosevelts failure to mention Japan
in his Tuesday night address had
been interpreted in some quarters as
meaning hat this country might
seek an "amicable understanding"
with the Japanese, Senator Norris
responded:
Il hope there will be no such
agreements. There is no use trying
to make treaties with Japan, which
already has an understanding with
Germany and has broken one with
us Cthe nine-poWer pact guarantee
ing the status quo in the ORIENT.
Even if we did make one. we sould
have no confidence that they would
keep it if it ever was to their ad-
vantage to break it,
Action Believed Unlikely.
Senator Norris expressed the view
Japan would never undertake action
against American interests in the
Pacific unless she thinks positively
that she can win-and when she
does think that she will attack with
out warming"
The British, he said, have a size
able naval force in the Pacific. This,
plus Japan's major engagements in
China, make the prospect of addl-
tional military action unlikely at
present, he added.
