 Therefore, Vandenberg contin- ued, "I believe the past and any subsequent legislative implement tation must be the subject of total exploration and complete public hearings in the Senate"
 Chairman Connally D.-TeXD of the Senate foreign relations com mittee has declared there will be wide open" public hearings by that group. He said they will be- gin soon atfer the precedent breaking alliance is, signed on April 4.
 The state department can sign the treaty for the United States, but it will not be binding on this country until the Senate approves it by a tWo-thirds vote.
 Vandenberg, reviewing events leading up to Warld War II, noted that the 1889 neutrality pact told Hitler that the United States would keep out of the conflict. He added:
 'The North Atlantic pact wholly to the contrary-Will tell any aggressor in 1949 that from the very moment he launches his conquest in this area he will face Whateer united opposition, includ- ing that of the United States, is necessary to beat him to his knees. Il re-assert that this is the greatest war deterrent ever de- vised. No itching conqueror will lightly view such odds.
 Yet no other nation on the face of this earth needs spend one sleepless night over any sort of menace from this pact unless it is plotting armed aggression against neighbors whose only aspiration is peace with justice and honor in a free world of free men,

Oily Ashby,
 Ex-NOmeite Dies

TACOMA, R)-One of the fab ulous figures of the Yukon gold rush days. Oily w. Ashby, died al the age of 86 at his home here Sunday.
 Ashby was just 21 in 1883 when he and his brother, Thomas H. Ashby, now living in Juneau, left their Missouri home and headed for Alaska in search of adventure and fortune. They found both.
 They crossed ChilkOOt Pass to become one of the earliest pioneers of that rugged country. In 1886 they went into the Yukon River country to mine the bars of Stew art River, and from then on for several years the two successfully prospected on most of the Yukon tributaries.
 He came Outside" in 1898 and established a home in Tacoma. But in 1899 news came of a big strike at Nome and with a non- descript vessel, the Skookum, he took a million feet of lumber from a Tacoma mill to that far north ern outpost.
 While there he acquired mining interests and became one of Alas ka's biggest contractors, heading the Topkok Ditch Company. He would have been married 55 years in June. His survivors in clude Mary E. Ashby, the wife who accompanied him on one of his trips across ChilkOot Pass. That was in 1896.

Secretary of State Acheson to- day denounced as altogether false" Russian charges that the United States is turning Iran into a military base for use against Russia.
 At.the same time Acheson re-af- firmed American interest in the security of Greece, Turkey and Iran.
 His statements to a news con- ference were evidently intended to prevent any impression that re- cent Washington concentration on the North Atlantic pact meant a lessening of American interest in the Middle East.
 Acheson first denied any Hess ening of our interest" in that area. Then he recalled the statement he made in his major speech on the Atlantic treaty last Friday. This was that American policy is ito help free peoples to maintain their integrity and independence :. wherever the aid we are able to provide can be effective"
 Acheson said that the American embassy at Tehran has reported intensifying Soviet pressure upon Iran in the form of persistent press and radio propaganda in re- cent weeks.
 This propaganda, Acheson said, charges "among other things, ac- tivities by United States advisors in Iran hostile to the Soviet Un- ion"

Secresf Seeks
Probe Tn Cut
OF Crude Oil
Product Goes
Down But Not
To Consumer

Complete investigation of the
reasons behind recent reductions
in the price of Pennsylvania
grade crude oil was requested
Thursday afternoon in resolu-
tion introduced in the House of
Representatives by Cong. Robert
I. Secrest of the 18th Ohio Dis
trict.
Secrest asks that the Commit
tee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce headed by Cong. Ro-
bert Crosser of Cleveland, be au-
thorized and directed to conduct
the investigation. 1t is understood
that Cong. Crosser is personally
favorable to such an investiga-

GERS in the Ohio valley area,
Pennsylvania grade crude oil in
eastern pipe lines recently was
reduced Al cents to 54 cents a
barrel. The new price is $3.55 a
barrel.
The cut followed from a high
price of $479 a barrel which
stood for most of last year until
Dec. II when there was a reduc-
tion of so cents to $4.29. A further
. cut of "a cents was made Dec. 81
when the quotation was $4.O5 a
barrel.
In the resolution, Secrest says
that despite this "arbitrary and
drastic reduction in the price
paid to producers of such crude
oil, there has been no reduction
in prices charged consumers of
gasoline and refined oil manufac-
tured therefrom."
The aim of the investigation,
Secrest says, will be to see if
such reductions were brought
about by monopolistic practices
or involved any violation of any
federal antitrust law and to
learn why no part of such reduc-
tions has been passed on to the
consumer.
The committee would be di-
rected to report on such investi-
cation before March Is and to
make such recommendations as
it deems advisable.
The committee, or sub-tommit-
tee if such is designated, would
be authorized to conduct hear
ings anywhere in the United
States whether or not Congress is
In session, and to subpoena testi-
mony and documents as deemed
necessary.
