WASHINGTON, D. C April 30.
If looks could kill, there would al
ready be about five dead In the back-
stage scuffle
among the new
dealers over the oil
code.
The t rottbl e
started when the
ell code enforce
ment crowd, the
petroleum advleory
board, decided to
go after several ln
depend ent pro
ducers In Texas
Tnr vlnlnttna- tho
code.
The case was thrown out by a Texas
Judge, who Intimated that the NRA
was somewhat unconstitutional. The
PAB decided the Judge was wrong
and appealed to the supreme court,
which has looked kindly on the new
deal so far.'
Trouble Immediately developed, not
from the defendants, but from other
new dealers who thought It would be
a good Idea for the government to
drop the case and try to forget about
It.
The matter has been kept extremely
confidential, while, for the last few
days, a half dozen new dealers have
been running around holding confer
ences to decide what should be done.
In those conferences they threw
everything at each other except tne
Ink wells.
Everyone admits that the basic con
stitutional principle of the new deal
Is Involved, but Donald Rlchberg of
the NRA and the Justice department
experts doubted the wisdom of meet'
lna- the Issue now. The Justice de-
nartment aDDarently did not like the
case .on legal grounds and Rlchberg
did not like It on any grounds.
Outside one of the conferences, a
little bird at the keyhole thought he
heard Rlchberg say: "If we lose this
ease the NRA has nothing to stand
on: If we win It, then we will have
to go after all code violators and put
them In Jail."
The little bird could not believe his
ears. NRA officials have said many
tviinna hut. none ever said he
doubted the wisdom of going after
code violators no in puouc. cw.j
rate. The bird must have been wrong.
r else Mr. Rlchbere was.
The case Is set for hearing by the
supreme court May 7. Justice depart
ment. iDiit have hinted they might
Insist that the court wash it off the
docket.
There Is Just a possibility that the
...nrama Wirt. tt.Mllf mfl? take JU-
dlclal notice of the hot potato and
decide on ita own inmauve w
There will be at least two resigna
tions In Interior Secretary Ickes'
hands unless the government goes
through with the case.
The PAB crowd. Including Solicitor
Margold of the Interior department,
will consider It disheartening to con
tinue trying to enforce an oil code If
the department of Justice lets him
down.
Rlchberg Is supposed to have taken
the matter to Mr. Roosevelt person
ally, but the president decided to let
the Justice department handle all
such warm apuds. The D. of J. and
Rlchberg both InBlst privately that
the Interior department Is wrong snd
that It really Is a bad case. Only the
supreme court can decide who was
right about It.
During all this the Texas defend
ants have not been considered. They
are merely described on the court
docket as "A. W. Smith, et al." The
et als" are Roy Taylor, John M. Kerr,
W. B. Oossage and Marvin Jones, In
dependent oil operators.
Wall atreet still haa some secrets
and silver Is one. The silver list was
a Joke. Banks shown thereon did
not buy for themselves generslly, but
for customers whose namra were not
divulged.
Only the Insiders knew thst the
banks had a little trick of making
money for themselves out of silver
purchases. They are supposed to
have bought large blocks early when
the price was low, parceling them out
later to customers at higher market
prices.
Most of the lawyers on the list arc
supposed to be dummies acting for
clients. One silver agitator bought
through his secretary and another
through his bodyguard.
The White House boss ha let hit
International advisers know privately
that It will be all right with him If
Clrcit Brtta.n assumes world leader
snip against Japan.
The British are far detper In China
than we are. Their valuable con
cessit on the Ynng-t-e river give
them ft greater Interest In Japan's
nrw Monroe doctrine than we have,

OPEN DOOR POLICY
UPON BYJAPANESE
British Foreign Secretary
Tells Commons Principal
Embodied in Nine-Power
Treaty of 1922 to Hold
LONDON, April 30 (AP) Sir John
Simon, foreign secretary, told the
house of commons today that Japan
has fully accepted the policy of the
"open door" for all nations In China.
The foreign secretary's statement
was made before a house packed with
members and spectators anxious to
hear the government's attitude on
the Japanese "hands off China" doc
trine, unofficially stated April If.
Sir John said that Sir Francis Lind-
ley, British ambassador In Tokyo, had.
pointed out to Kokl Hlrota, the Jap
anese foreign minister, that the prin
ciple of equal rights In China was
very explicitly guaranteed by the
nine-power treaty signed at Wash
ington In 1922, to which Japan was a
signatory.
The British ambassador had ex
plained thst the British government
must continue to enjoy all rights
under that treaty In common with
other signatories, the foreign secra

informed the British government it
has no intention of interfering with
'the common rights' of other powers
in China and has reaffirmed Its policy
of the maintenance of the open door.
He said Japan had given assurance
that she will observe the nine-power
treaty. (The treaty, signed by Japan,
China, Great Britain, France, Hol
land, and other nations certifies the
right of thJ signatories to carry on
legitimate business In China and
guarantees the Integrity of that na
tion.)
