Mckay Puts Oil Import
Issue Up 10 Industry
BY the Assoeiuted Press

Domestic oil producers appar-
emily are going to have to de-
pend on industrial statesman
ship" to cut down imports Of
foreign crude oil.
Interior Secretary Mckay, who
also is petroleum administrator
for defense, used that term yes
terday in addressing the Ma
tional Petroleum Council on the
import problem. Mr.. Mckay
said he had discussed the sit
uation with President Eisen-
hover and that the Chief Ex-
ecutive shared his views.
Legislation is pending in Con-
gress to require quotas limit
ing oil imports to 10 per cent
of domestic demand. The Ques-
ton is involved in the reciprocal
trade extension bill on which
the House Ways and Means
Committee says it plans to act
lin the near future"
With Mr.. McKay's restatement
Of Gen. Eisenhower's position,
the chances are that the oil
import quota sponsored by Rep
resentative Simpson, Republic
can, of Pennsylvania will be re-
jected.

and let the Republicans sweat
it out" But interviews indicated
one definite vote against it, three
inclined against, only two de-
flnitely for the proposal and four
probable supporters.
The isue thus appeared hair
line close, with the outcome still
in doubt. Congressman. of course,
could shift their stand, depend
ing on developments.
Gen. Eisenhower posed a test
of his leadership in Congress by
proposing the extension in q Ma
tion-wide broadcast May IL, and
in a special message to Congress
May Is.
Republicans on the Ways and
Means Committee. which must
start all tax bills through Con-
gress, previously had lined up
Solidly against an extension.

The President said the extern
sion would raise an additional
$500 million revenue and this is
needed in the battle to reduce
the Federal deficit. curb imitation
and arm the country. At the same

the tax that it actually penal
