At a meeting of the Portland
price <>f _ gasoline took effect this
morning with garages and stations
handling Generai Petroleum an
nouncing a on«* cent reduction to
17 cents a gallon.
Th«* drop in retail prices started
last Friday when the big oil com
panies made reductions to the
dealers ami provided for a gen
eral decrease in retail prices. Pre
vious to that gasoline wax selling
here at 22 cents, th«* first drop
was to 29 cents and this was fol
lowed yesterday by another two
cent reduction.
Although only General Petro
leum dealers were selling at 17
cents thii morning, other dealers
were confident that it would ex
tend to them before the day was
over and thut there was prospect
of further reductions.
Meanwhile the motorist feels
that he “is sitting on top of the
