on>Pipe Line

Washington. Feb. fins 4
Senate movement was launched to-
day to block government construc-
ton of 125 million dollar oil pipe
line over the Arabian Desert until a
world oil policy Is formed.
The first step is expected 10 be
creation OF an eight-man Senate
committee TO investigate the oil sit
uation and recommend a plan to be
followed in exploiting foreign oil
reserves.
Senate leaders were said to have
agreed to create the committee,
which would include two mem bers
each OF the Foreign Relations. Com
merce. Interstate Commerce and
Public Lands committees.
The proposal to build the 1926
million dollar pipeline TO privately
owned American oil reserves re.
quires congressional consideration. "
said Sen. Brewster (R) Maine. at
is not a proper policy TO be deter
mined by the executive branch Of
the government alone
Roosevelt has taken over direction
Of the Administration foreign oil
policy. He said that Petroleum Ad-
ministrator Ickes, before the pipe
line project was announced. had
agreed that the policy should first
be considered by Congress. Ickes
three times postponed a scheduled
appearance before a committee.
II believe the President is re-
sponsible for him not coming" said
Brewster. "He had agreed but a
higher authority interviewed"
The proposed pipeline would
run from the Persian Gulf area to
the Mediterranean. under an agree.
ment with two oil companies con.
trolled by the Standard Oil OF Cali
fornia, Texas Company and Gulf
Oil Company.
Are we going TO have a naval
base in the Mediterranean Sea >"
asked Brewster. The Mediterran-
can will become someone's lake

also that Russia Is interested In the

Briggs
Strike
Still On

A strike Of nearly 1000 foremer
continued today. hampering wal
production in five plants of the
Briggs Manufacturing Co.
Eight hundred of the foremen,
backed by national officers of the
Foremen's Association of America,
voted 10 continue the walkout,
which began Friday.
Company spokesman claimed the
walkout was the elimination of
continued efforts to force recogni-
tion of the foremen's union. Union
officials declared the dispute,
touched off by an attempt TO main
tain production quotas in the face
of a reduction in manpower,
stemmed from an accumulation
of grievances.
Spokesman for the Republic
Aircraft Corp, where 1000 struck
Tuesday in protest against the
firing of So workers, including a
union steward, said the plant was
TO open today after union officials
urged work be resumed pending
outcome of negotiations.
UAW-CIO President r. j.
Thomas told workers at a mass
meeting Saturday that interna-
tional officers would exert every
effort TO bring about settlement
of the grievances if the men would
return.

UAW-CIO employees of the Ford
Motor Co of Canada started to
return TO their jobs after being
on strike for more than a week.
The union and company yesterday
agreed TO a settlement offered by
the WLB Of Canada.
II was estimated, however,
that it will be two or three days
before production is completely
normal in the affected plants.
