of the oil tyranny. The Ministers now
in!office gave solemn pledges to relieve
the people of the oil monopoly. In-
stead, they have placed the cOuntry
under the control of the Standard Oil
monopoly of the United States, which
.formerly had to compete'with the Oen:

of obstruction. Those who could not
