"SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1929 <‘Bommittee Recommends Pas- -% sage of Amendment of Motor Vehicle Law Hl pits al 4 a AT OIL HEAD SCRAP Asks Cleansing of Industry of Agents Who Bring Indus- try in Bad Repute Washington, Jan. 26.—(#)—Direct- ing the attention of the senate to the contest ‘between John D. Rockefeller and Robert W. Stewart for control of the Standard Oll Company of = ana, Senator Nye, Republican, Ni Dakota, urged today that the oil people “cleanse the industry of agents. and officials who by their methods bring the entire industry into bad repute.” Senator Nye referred to the senate’s inquiry into Stewart’s purported con- nection with the “shady Continental ‘Trading company,” and to the subse- quent trial and acquittal of Stewart on a charge of perjury in connection with his testimony before the com- mittee. Nye said Stewart “defied the senate, misled the senate, lied to the senate, “But to me,” said Nye, “the most interesting feature .of Col. Stewart’s latest press release is the revelation of how his share of the millions of dollars in profits of the Continental Trading company~transactions were partly the source from which the steady stream of cash dividends has been paid to the stockholders of the Indiana company every quarter dur- ing recent years. “Then he goes on to tell how the berty bonds he received from the ntinental Trading company were turned into a trust, which he created with a pencil and paper, but he fails to tell how his trustee never ‘trusted’ ‘and how the bonds stayed in his Con- tinuous possession even under the Stewart-created trust.” “But the main point in Mr. Stew- art’s press contention for the con- tinued favor of the Standard Oil stockholders is this,” Nye continued, in Parachute Drop from Burning Plane Springtield, . ¢ Jan. 26.—(P)— Lieut.
