Senator Hennings, Democrat, OF

nate the United States oil industry.

But Mr.. Thorp said the depart

time would not contribute to the
foreign policy aims of the United

Queries Costs to Navy.
Urging the White House to re-

asked whether the American Navy
must pay artif1cially high prices

whether the world oil price struc-

countries receiving American aid,
and whether independent Ameri-
