These tests have given us some very pertinent facts and we intend to give the motoring public the benefit of this information." - Clarence S. Beesmeyer. vice-president of the .Gilmore company who will be remembered by Medford of ficials as a visitor In Medford a few months ago, made a flight by plane to Portland to preside at the north west meeting.

W. Ellis. Concerning Its manufacture, Mr. El lis said: "New refining practices had to be developed to produce Red Lion Gasoline. More crude, oil is required from which to refine a gallon of this new gasoline than to produce a gallon of ordinary motor fuel. This Is the more costly way to refine gasoline." The Gilmore "Speedway-perfected" gasoline, carried the famous Gllmore guarantee to remove carbon, accord ing to Gilmore officials. -..

Much of the list closed with net gains of fractions to a couple of points, but some rails were lower. The closing tone was irregular. Salea approxi mated 2,000,000 shares. Much of the speculative fraternity had been awaiting a technical reac tion, same 'feeling it was past due, and there was a rush to take profits when the rails began to slip. The list had been hesitant early, but surged up swiftly for a time in the afternoon. Prices began to slip In the last half hour.
