TULSA DAILY WORLD, TUKSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1917 ROVFRNMFNTWIM J NOT HARRASS OIL Producers May Continue Oper ations Without Fear of Dras tic Interference. By OMER K. BKNEDICT. (World's VnnhiriKton Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. Au. 20. So far as can be uswit!lnetl In WashliiKton, the oil men of the country can ro ahead In their regular channelH of operations without any fear of any drastic meas ures being taken by any branch of the federal government. It has been definitely stated by those In charge of the administration of the food bill that nothing will be done in reference to control of petroleum or Its by-producu or pipe lines in that de partment. Control Not Imperative. While the food bill grants the presi dent power to control fuel oil and pipe lines and natural gas. that does not mean that they will be controlled by the ood administrator, or that they will bo controlled at all. The law merely gives the president such au thority, and up to this time has has not assumed that authority, and from all that I can find out he hus no in tention of so doing. The probabilities are thnt If It be comes necessary to control oil, pipe lines or natural gas that the president will select the federal trades com mis lion for that purpose, ns they have the organization, the machinery and the data with which to do It; and It Is an Accepted fact that the food adminis trator, Mr. Hoover, and his organiza lion will have all they can do looking liter roods and reed. Awiurctl K'jiw)iial)lc Profit. Secretary Daniels of the navy may. If it becomes necessary, commandeer oil, pipe lines or tank ships, as he has Hready done, but if he docs the oil men need have no fear that they will not receive a reasonable profit, and the Jetleral trades commission will make Ihoio Investigation as to what la a reasonable profit. And In any event the oil man has rights of appeal if he Is dissatisfied with tho profits granted by the secretary o fthe navy, bused on Investigation by the federul trades commission. The chances are very favorable that oil will not be touched so far us con trol Is concerned. And it can be au thoritatively stated that if It Is con trolled it will not operate to the detri ment of ho producer. The chances are more favorable for control oper ating to tho benefit of the oil man than against his Interests; because it is cer tain that if the government did at tempt control the officials would read ily ascertain that the oil producer needed asisstanco In getting pipe at a reasonable price and adequate trans portation facilities.

The trend of atocka during most of Mon day was elichtly downward. The start was shade better but the selling of standard rai:a like Saw York Central and Iteading with a break of more than 2 points in the latter, soon affected the entire list. F.x pected government control of coal and the forthcoming war revenue measure which will bear rather roughly on Yen companies as New Yurk Central beiauo of their large bonded indobtedneaa, were the arguments used by thoae who sold the rail group. D. k II. sold at a new low but not much stock came out. It is doubtful if outsiders did much in the market. There was muro or leas short selling and trading as a whole was prnfianioiial. Prupably the short in tercut is increased. The market baa the apearance of being considorably oversmld, if thia is true, another upturn ia probably not tar off, tho it may start from a lower level. Stocks will drag in the absence of develop ments tending to remove Uiubts. Use the aelbacka to buy the leaders but tako profits on strong spots. There should be chances for many moderate turns. COTTON New York Cotton. NF.W YOKK, Aug. 20. There waa a severe break in the cotton market today owing to reporta of an easier spot basia iu tho south and raina In parts of Texas. De cember contracts sold off to 23.72c, or 08 points frum Saturday 'a final figurea and closed at thnt level with the general list closing baredy steady at a net ducliuu of 03 to 70 points. The market opened ateady at a decline of 21 to 25 points on private reports of rain In the southwest. After showing a net loss of some 80 to 40 points, the market rallied slightly on the official western belt forecast for partly cloudy weather In Texas and showera only in the northern part of the atate. Pricea aoon weakened following the official detailed weather reporta for the Houston district showing that there bad been good raina In northern, western and aome central portions of Texas. These re porta crented an impression that the drouthy area had been reduced even if relief had not been general, and selling waa further stimu lated by southern spot advicea indicating that the basis waa easier, October coutracta were relatively weak during the entire Jey, Belling off to 23.85c in the afternoon, or 78 points net lower while later months sold 63 to t8 points under Saturday'a closing with January touching 23.72c. Thia made a decline of ap proximately 150 points from the high level of last Wednesday and there waa aome scat tered covering, but the close waa at the lowest point of the day. tQ exports were reported for the day. New Orleans Cotton. NEW OllI.KAKfl, Aug. 20. A decline of 13 in the cotton market here today resulted from selling which persisted from the open ing to the close. Lant pricea were practically the lowest of the session. Offerings were encouraged by raina in Texaa and reporta of easv spot markets, both in tbe eastern and western belts. Selling around the opening depresaed pricea to the extent of a quarter of a rent a pound and the decline was gradually widened with minor reactiona dun to profit-taking by aalisfied aborts nntll late in the day. The most active months were 60 to 84 points under the last price of Saturday. The clos ing pricea showed s losa of from 80 to 03 pointa. Iteportl circulated thrnout the session that the apot basis in the Interior was easier. New York Cotton Futures. NEW YOKK, Aug. 20. The cotton market closed barely ateady.
