Split of S C oil firms over Russia sparks financial worry
New York July 21 UP The Standard Oil trust and its subsidiaries face a major split over buying petroleum from Russia. Standard Oil of New Jersey says it will avoid Russia until private property is recognized and indemnities for seized properties are arranged. The move shocks Standard Oil of New York and Vacuum Oil, both linked to the Rockefeller group, though they argue their European supply use does not affect U.S. overproduction. Russia has offered indemnities for seized assets, and the intercompany ties, while technically separate, have long operated in harmony under the Rockefeller umbrella.
