'AUK THIRTEEN
GASOLINE WAR
IN SALEM NOW
HEARING ENO
Twenty sot and a half cent (as.
oline was to b. purchased at prac
Ucall)k every pump In Salem Frl
dajr afternoon as to price war
.aged on, although two of the ma
jor ou companies distributing th.
product here had refused to deliver
mora gas to retailers displaying that
price mark for Uis fuel delivered
under consignment contracts.
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.
