Keeping Oil From Expanding Thailand
SAIGON, March 15
The Standard Oil Company was reported today to be selling its numerous stored products in the area recently ceded to Thailand by Indo-China, with the intention of moving out. The Shell Corporation, with larger holdings in the same area, is also said to be removing property from ceded territory before Thailand takes possession. The command of the Japanese military mission in South Indo-China will change on March 18, when Colonel Jiro Saito, former Japanese army spokesman at Shanghai and an expert on Thailand military affairs, will arrive. He replaces Colonel Ryoji Koite.
