Oil Fact, Theories

An American writer and authority on the
Middle East recently remarked that: "Wheth-
er one likes or dislikes free enterprise and
private capital, one must honestly admit that
the American oil industry was efficient enough
and alive enough to discover, produce, and de-
velop oil reserves in America and throughout
the world, to provide an oil arsenal for two
world wars"
American oil men know more about oil than
any other group in The world. The record
proves that. Government restrictions which dis
courage or prohibit the normal operation and
growth Of the oil industry as an independent,
free enterprise, will threaten the future of the
United States far more seriously than theoret-
ical shortages of oil reserves.

Tax Dodging

& Commenting on an analysis of the Tennessee
Valley authority by the United States Cham
Der of Commerce, the Charleston, West Vir-
ginia, Daily Mail says: ut reveals Cd an ag-
gregate cost of IVA to the American taxpay-
ers of almost one billion dollars; (2) tax pay
ments of only one twelfth of the rate per
kilowatt hour assessed against electric ener-
gy which is produced by competitive private
enterprise; 90 misleading system of allocat-
ing 60 per cent Of all IVA costs to navigation,
flood control and other activities-only 40 per
cent to power. and az list of 30 other
activities ranging from experiments in So
cialized medicine to operating public schools,
grocery stores, service stations and drug stores.
1.-THE Authority's advantage in competing
with private business is based on its compar-
alive freedom from taxes; access to the Fed
eral treasury and privilege of allocating in
vestment to any one of five purposes, namely,
flood control, navigation manufacture of fer
tilizer, national defense and power develop
ment.
THE four mill tax paid on every kilowatt-
hour produced in 1912 by private utility COM
panies equals the total cost to these companies
: of producing power. If these private COM
epanies were tax free is IVA and other
public agencies, they could write off t h
equivalent of their power production costs and
reduce rates accordingly, a fact which mocks
the so called cheapness and value of gov
eminent expenditures for waterpower develop
ment.''
Il There was never more unAmerican prac-
fice than using tax money to build tax-exempt
federal power plants to compete with highly
taxed investments of private citizens. Not an
other dime of increased taxes should be levied
against individuals and industry until the laws
are amended to tax Federal business ventures
mt same rates as private enterprise.

State Department Speaks

I The effect of our State DEPARTMENTS un-
present Argentine governments policy will be
watched with interest for several reasons.
1T may decide the immediate fate of Pan
IAmerican solidarity as we'll as the future of
1.-THE Farrell. Peron regime And it NAV also
.frovide pattern or preview of the manner
lin which the postwar world will deal with ma
,tions of aggressive tendencies.
This last would be particularly true if the
present denial Of hemisphere recognition
should fail to alter Argentine policy No one
hopes that it will fail. But if it should then
something further must be done. Economic
Isolation would probably come first. DESPITE
the hardship it would work on this country
and Britain. And if that were unsuccessful.
military action would not be an impossible
eventuality.
In such course of events the American gov.
ernrnents, led by the United States, would have
to improvise. For If the Argentine situation
does not get better quickly, it may get worse
"A solution probably will come before world
wide peace organization is set up. So any
step that the Western Hemisphere nations
might take would be Of great importance: 3
successful one could be incorporated into ;
world agreement; a failure would serve a.
4 horrible example.
Thus far the State Departments actions hav

and Francois Spain were criticized severely,
but were defended as expedient moves which
fastened victory and saved lives. There is no
reason for a similar attitude toward the Ar
gentine regime, which has been irritating and
hurtful to the war effort, but is not in posi-
ton to ;nflict such immediate and vital dam
age as the pro Axis European governments.
The State Department has made it abun-
dainty clear that our dissatisfaction is not
cloak for interference in Argentina's internal
affairs In fact our indictment Of the govern
ment's Fascist, militaristic complexion is only
secondary.
The primary indictments of the Farrell
Peron Government are these: It has violated
its country's pledge to support the war against
the Axis thus striking powerful Blow at
hemisphere co operation; 1t has Openly
and VIGOROUSLY given affirmative assistance
to enemies of the United Nations
The growth of Fascism in Europe has taught
an obvious lesson. Needing it, the State De-
partment has spoken early and decisively.
change of Argentine attitude in response to
these words will augur well for peace in years
to come.

ed back and forth among the
French, the British and later the
Americans. Miss Mute has not &C
copied anything lazily, but h S
gone to sources for the entire story.
And she has been very clever at
digging up old records, particular
ly diaries-perhaps Because she is
curator of manuscripts for h e
Minnesota State Historical Society
and professor of history at Hamline
University.
She has been very fair and frank
about the exploration and similar
adventures of the various mission
aries and her refusal to accept as
a hero any old buzzard in a dirty
shirt and a pediculous beard is
rather refreshing. For me, h e
most interesting part of her story
was the modern part, beginning
with the exploitation of Superior S
ore resources, and containing the
story of the astonishing develop
ment of lake transportation down
to date. There was even some
news in this division - not many
readers know how the new Nc
Arthur lock was rushed through at
Sault Ste. Marie.
Perhaps Lake Superior should
be a must in american history
classes for a while

known in France-I1l have shirred

French fried potatoes and corn-fed
bacon, done to a turn, and grape
jelly and autumn brown toast
and gallons and gallons of thick.

Then I'll wake them UP and I'll
serve it to all four of them on a
red platter. I'll serve it with a
bow to Mr.. Whitehead, and a cur.
tesy to Mr.. Liebling, and a Good
morning to you, SIR" to Mr..
Brandt, and a long salute to Mr..
Gorrell. And after I've served it.
III walk out casually as though.
I'm going up the hedgerow a little
ways.
