Carol Roiling REPRESENTS HONG KONG HONO KONG Ufl General manager Yin Chih-Chung of Ta Chung Great China Industrial Co., Ltd., will leave Saturday for Seattle to represent Hong Kong at the Par Eastern International Trade Exhibition. counsel to the Senate committee, told a reporter MSA, which adinui Islers foreign aid, contends the to tal overcharges would be more Uian 60 million, but that he docs not know how much more. The companies, the report said, charged Uie Europeans "exorbi tant prices" for oil, far higher then they charged for deliveries to the United States from the same Middle Eastern fields. "Because of this two-price sys tem and the abnormally high price charged in European markets, an undue burden was placed on the American taxpayer, who was foot ing the bill for Marshall Plan aid." the committee said in a prepared statement quoting the report. It said MSA also reported that Arabian - American Oil Company owned Jointly by four of the five linns, obtained postwar steel allo cations lor construction of the trans-Arabian oil pipe line with an understanding that the line would lower the transportation cost to Uie European nations. Savings were not passed on to the Euro peans, it alleged, adding: The only defense offered bv the companies lor tins situation was that the large risks inherent In Middle Eastern operations made it necessary to amortize the new pipe line as quickly as possible." It named the four companies owning Arabian-American as the two Standards, Socony . Vacuum and the Texas Company. In New York, spokesmen for Standard of New Jersey and the Texas Company said they would stand on their previous statements, which were similar. New Jersey Standard's state ment, issued In April, said Esso export corporation sales have al W'ays been at competitive prices. It said these prices were well known and have not been protested by any of the countries concerned. The subject has been thoroughly discussed with the Economic Co operation Administration (EC A l. predecessor to MSA. the statement said, ana the tsso firm complained tnat ' kAjA was attempting to in terfere with normal competitive prices." Adams described the MSA report as covering "only one very narrow phase" of a wide field of accusa tions the Federal Trade Commis sion (FTC) has aimed at the five U. s. firms and two foreign com paniesAnglo - Iranian and Royal uutcn eneu on companies. The FTC report is due to be made public Monday, following months of hot controversy over its suppression. It has been billed as a denunciation of alleged monopoly practices by all seven companies. David Proctor, vice president and general counsel for Gulf Oil Corp.. said in Pittsburgh: As far as I know there has been no claim made against Gulf Oil by the Mutual Security Agency. That's all I nave to say." mi m ii i i i ,ii im nil n iy, m " ""I" i" y ajiiimi, n "nan11""" if V A v , il I. . v. - ' ' '1.13 THhtt WOMfcN, all booked at material witnestot in New York's continuing cats society vice probe, are shown at they appeared outside the grand jury room to testify.
