Mr. Holmes, who was at once ap
pealed to, stated that no Federal
order enforcing tin closing of gar
ages "Willi In the hours specified iind,
Lo his knowledge, been Issued. In

left the entire matter to the dis

District Administrator Sanctions
Through the stato council of
defense, p. M. Fulsom, fuel udmln-
ixtrutor over the lutes Of Califor
nia, Oiogon, Washington, Idaho,
Utah and Montana has sanctioned
the request . which originates with
the Union, Standard . and other
largo companies tlmt filling statlon
be operated only during, regulur
buslnea iliours. . Thus state tidrnln-
Islrators are loft' yto- decide be
tween the conflicting orders of tho
Federal and District Administra
tors.
For Community's Interests
In Investigating the claims' of
the onriofdnfr nartla . In the ulnte.
Mrs. Holmes staton as follows;
, Tho. oil distributors base their
request on the claim that a conser
vation of man power Is effected
by allowing operation by retail dis
tributors only during the regular
business hour. While this may In
a few Instances bo true In larger
cities, yot Jn general I believe that
ft Is not. For Instance, the class
of labor employed In garages, would
In such war Industries as ship
building be unskilled and classed
as common labor, which Is being
mined off by1; the companies at
the rate of .several hundred. Of
course the larger distributors would
find that tho salarleii of perhaps 3 5
or 30 employes would be saved by
such a plan, without injuring tholr
Interests. ' If other concerns could
bo ' forced Into like measures. .
In country districts, I And that
tills claim Is practically groundless.
Most small garages and stations
ar.;. operated - by tho proprietors
themselves and furthermore ft large
part of their iar storage profits
would be lost if early closing hours
were ordered. : !' -. ."'.; V ,
'T am sincerely anxious to rep
resent the Interests of the people
of tho state. I want to cooperate
with the government in every war
measure that Is. necessary but I do
not wish to interfere with a man's
personal business to the extent In
which tlje order through the state
council of defense seems .to nec
essitate. It has been emphasized
howover, by both the Federal Ad
ministrator und 'ho Pacific Coast
Oil Company that this closing hour
regulation has only been a re
quest on . the part of oils com
panies. It lcmalua to be seen
whether. District Administrator
Folson. will comply with the orders
from Washington as they - now
aland or whother some othor de
cision will be arrived at."
The statement issued by Federal
Administrator Ho'iiu, In iiegard'to
tho controvery under date of Aug
ust 1 Is as follows!
'"The attention: of the War In
dustries Board and of the United
.Stales. Fuel Administration.' has
been called to the wide prevalence
throughout tho United States of a
mistaken Impression 'that mime or
der or recommendation has beon
Issued from Washington with re
spect to the . sale of oil and gaso
line. In snmo places, local auto
mobile dealers' associations have
even issued circulars laying down
the rule Miat dealers in oil and
gnsollno. must Smoke no . sale of
these produqts on Sundays and hol
idays or after 6 p. m, : on other
days, nnd stating "It Is . now an
order from Washington."
-'No such order or recommend
ation has been Issuod by any gov
ernmental authority or ; with; i nntf
governmental approval. The fuel
administration nas urgea mat
wasteful . practices In the use of oil
mH iriuinllne shall be stopped and
all reasonable apd proper measures
of conservation shall D onservea.
No limitations, hdwever, have beon
placed upon the gale of these pro
ducts. ,
it ! not' Intended to Interfere
In any way with the activities! of
nhiiB . dealers' associations
or others who, after consideration
of --the local conditions, may seek
ito bring about some limitation- up
jon the hours during which oil and
gasoline shall be sold to the pub
illc; but it Is desired that it be
clearly understood that no qrdere
or recommendations have been is
