That oil companies were not Justified In their recent action of refusing to sell gas oline, and distillate to garages unless the dealer agreed not to sell from 6 p. ni. to 6 a. m. and on Sundays, claiming authority from trV Fuel Administration for so doing, is the decision rendered by the oil division of the United States Fuel Administra tion at Washington, to which Fuel Administrator Fred J. Holmes sub mitted the matter. N. B. Beecher, counsel for the oil division, said in a letter to Mr. Holmes, d;ited November 21: "We think your position is entire ly correct, that in view of the fact that no order with respect to closing has been issued by the fuel admin istration, distributors were free to comply with the request of the Fed eral Oil Director for the Pacific Coast, the Pacific Coast Petroleum War Service committee and the Ore gon Slate Council of National De fense, or not, as they, saw it and that the oil companies were not justified in refusing to sell to those who failed to comply with the ;eiuest upon the representation that they were acting under any directions of the fuel ad ministration or the Pacific Coast Pe troleum War Service committee. 800-Acre Creek Ranch IV2 miles of creek. 110 acres under ditch.

Good Will Given a New Impetus A statement of Dodge Brothers war ac tivities is due the owners of their cars. Dodge Brothers refrained during the pro gress of the war, from any reference to the performance of the car in Government ser vic. It seems proper now, however, tor disclose the facts, because they are creditable facts intensifying that good will which owners of Dodge Brothers cars have always manifested. Dodge Brothers car was the only one of its class approved andl adopted by the "War Department. In 'separate Ordnance Works, built espec ially for the purpose, costing millions of dollars and employing thousands of their skilled motor workmen, Dodge Brothers undertook an important duty designated by the "War Department. "Without the aid of their great motor or ganization, Dodge Brothers could not have fulfilled the heavy obligation which they were asked to assume by th Ordnance De partment. The other sen-ice required of Dodge Broth ers motor works, hy the Government, was to continue to furnish their cars as they were needed. They were furnished, not in hundreds, but in thousands both for the training camps here, and for service in Belgium, France and Italy. Tlie record of those thousands of camp . 'and army cars is one in which any owner , may feel the utmost pride and satisfaction. Their performance justified the compli ment implied in their selection by the Gov ernment. ' Hie great works in which nearly three hundred thousand of their cars have been produced in the past four years furnished a vast storehouse of human energy and equipment for the ordnance works. NataraTly, it will take time to adjust the motor works to its full accustomed activity. Gradually Dodge Brothers will resume thtv grateful task of continuing to deserve the good will of America and indeed of the whole world. Dodge Brothers consider good will their moet valued possession. They will never knowingly d anything ta lessen it.
