Induction before he would be en-

while inducing married men.

Glenn Mccarthy Buys
Control Of Company
To Double Egypt's Oil
BY the Asseeioied Press

PARIS. Nov. 24.-Texas Gilman
Glenn Mccarthy said today he had
signed a multimillion- dollar deal
to take control of a company
which would exploit more than
1000 square miles of Egyptian
territory for oil.
Exact terms Of the deal were
not disclosed, except that under
the agreement Mccarthy would
have a 81 per cent interest In the
Egyptian National Petroleum Co.
The remaining 40 per cent is
owned by varied interests, mostly
Egyptians.
Some sources said previously the
deal would involve between $6 and
$40 Million" but one of Mr.. Nc
Carthy's aides said today "the
exact amount Of the investment
can't be known until we see just
how much and what type of ex-
ploitation will be necessary"
Sinai Looks Best.
The oil lands Of Egypt range
over most of the northern sections
OF the country, from the Sinai
Desert westward to an area on the
Mediterranean some 800 miles
west Of Cairo.
According to Mr.. Mccarthy, the
most favorable looking area for
oil is in the Sinai, on the east side
OF the Gulf Of Suez, an arm of the
Red Sea.
Very little of the territory, which
is made up Of 121 lots Of so square
miles each, has been exploited
previously. The most westerly
area was tapped before World
War II by a German company
whose seismograph tests indicated
the presence of huge oil pools be-
meath the surface.
Although the deal giving Mr..
Mccarthy control was signed to-
day by the Texan and representa-
tives Of the National Petroleum
Co., actual exploitation depends
upon whether the Egyptian Par
lament changes laws restricting
the control Of Egyptian companies
by foreigners and the export of
profits from the undertaking.
Reports Are Favorable.
The amending laws already
have been introduced, Mr.. Nc
Carthy's aide said. and have re-
ceived favorable reports" from
parliamentary committees.
Mr.. Mccarthy said he would 70
to New York Tuesday and return
to Egypt after the first Of the year.
If the laws have been changed
by then," an aide said. "weu start
moving in equipment right away
and go to work"
An Egyptian oil source said
plans for exploitation Of the 121
lots would double Egypt's oil pro-
duction from 2.5 million tons an
nually to 5 million within three
years.

Tariff Concessions
To Russia and Poland
Are Ended by u. 5.

President Truman has issued
orders directing an end to trade
concessions to Soviet Russia and
Communist-run Poland, effective
January 2.
He also has ordered an embargo
on imports of several types OF furs
from Russia and Communist
China.
The action was called for by
Congress in extending earlier this
year the Reciprocal Trade Agree
ments Act in a section directing
the suspension of tariff conces-
sionS to Russia and her satellite
countries.
The concessions already have
been ordered withdrawn from Bull
garia, Communist China and
CzechoSlovakia. Action against
Russia herself and Poland was de-
layed by treaty provisions requir-
ing six months advance notice.
Action on Hungary Delayed.
Withdrawal of concessions from
Communist Hungary will be de-
layed until next July S because
Of a treaty provision requiring a
years notice.
Congress also directed the ban
on importation of certain furs
from Russia and Red China
Those specified are ermine, fox,
kolinsky. marten, mink. and
weasel, either dressed or un-
dressed. The ban is complete in
that they may not be shipped
into this country at any rate of
duty.
The Presidents order went to
the Treasury Department which
has charge Of customs service.
Notified Last July.
1t wiped out the tariff conces-
sions granted Russia in a trade
agreement dating back to August
4, 1887. The State Department
gave advance notice of termina-
tion in a note delivered last
July 6.
The treaty with Poland was
signed July Is, 1881. 1t is expect
ed to expire on January S, since
Poland has not agreed to the
modification of trade concessions.
Trade with Russia and her
satellites has dwindled since the
postwar peak, when those coun-
tries were buying substantial
amounts of machinery and other
capital equipment in the United
States. Many of this country's
shipments had been banned pre-
viouSly as war potential.
