Mot all of the dealers were dis playing the am cent signs, but there were no reports of customers paying a higher price anywhere. Deliveries to service stations and curb pumps not covered by thee "trick" contracts of the Standard and Shell oil companies, and soma of the service stations supplied by other companies were still securing deliveries of gas. There was nothing to Indicate definitely when the war. started by retailers in protest against the action of the companies In estsb Ushing a four cent differential be tween Portland and Salem whole sale prices, in favor of Portland, would come to an end. There were indications, however, that the com panies, getting together, would fore the dealers to return to the com pany dictated price of 24 cents a gallon within a few hours. unconfirmed reports said that the companies were preparing to equalise the difference In price be tween Portland and Salem, but whether this would take the form of a reduction In the wholesale price here to 174 cents or an In crease In the Portland price to 184 cents could not be determined. The war was precipitated by tha action of the companies In reducing the wholesale price in Portland 24 cents and refusing to grant a simi lar concession to dealers here, forcing local dealers to compete with retail prices ranging from If to 20 cents In Portland with a dl tatied price of 24 cents here. OHIO DRY LEADER ASKS MODIFICATION (Continued from pace 1) pointed out, could not become t fectlve, however, without a modlft cation of the Volstead act. "Light wines and beer under strict governmental control would be pre ferable to what we have now," Crmbb said. "There Is neluier respect for nor true enforcement of the pres ent law. If the law as enacted had been properly respected and en forced I would not have advocated a change but I am willing to eon cede that this is not true and con sequently am in favor of modifica tion, i "We need a statute tltat will more nearly meet the wishes and com mand the respect of the great ma jority of the people. The present prohibition law has not commanded the respect of the great majority of the people. The present pro hibition law has not prevented tlie use of Intoxicating; liquor but on the contrary has brought about a condition where there are a greater percentage of our people drinkingf now than ever before. The drink ers are a different element too than In former years. "I believe a majority of the people of Ohio would still favor a reason able law regulating; use of Intoxi cants but they are net In accord with the present rigid measure." WANTS DRAIN TILE PLACED IN DITGH Placing of a drain tile of suffi cient size to take care of the sur face water in that portion of the city bounded by Cross, High, Rural and Berry streets is petitioned for in a communication directed to the city council by Emma Murphy Brown, owner of blocks 15 and 19 in the southeast part of the city. In her letter to the city author itieg, Mrs. Brown points out that tlie city dug a ditch through her property some time ago extending from the south line of Cross to the north line of Howard street. She requests that large tile be placed in this ditch and then filled over with earth. Since tike work would of necessity have to be done most ly by hand, she believes It would to some extent take care of the unemployment situation. Mrs. Brown plans improvement of her property provided the city acts on her request. Nearly 20,000 Europeans have taken up farming in southwest AN rira.
