In the latest test of strength within the Administration Council Lasker has again shown himself the dominant factor.

The plan was arranged by a Sen- ator who has been prominent in the r t « negotiations and it had received the|#nd Fall one. Chairman ts lected W. C. tentative approval of the President and the support of Secretary Hoover After the principals had been ap- prised of the plan and the details were being arranged the Senator in question was surprised by a telephone call from Lasker, whom he had not known in the negotiations, in which the Shipping Board head notified him that it had been decided to call off the conference; that he did not consider the time opportune and that in the event of failure the President would be credited with another rebuff at the hands of the opposing forces. The latest instance w Lasker has come in conflict with a Cabinet member centres around the renewal of the contract under which the Shipping Board recadvesits oil for the oll-burning ships of th® Meet. The navy oll is now coptrolled by Secre tary of the Intetior Fall, under the executive order Which preceded the Teapot Dome deal.
