Ralph K. Davles, acting petro leum coordinator, announced to day that gasoline supplies for filling stations in the east would be reduced 15 per cent in Sep tember compared with July. Davles' testimony opened a senate investigation of threat ened oil shortages. He present ed a mass of figures which he said showed that the eastern coast faced an actual shortage of both gasoline and oil for heating and industry this winter. The east coast faced a deficit of 27,800.000 barrels of petro leum products during the last four months of this year, Davies testified. He said the reduction in gasoline supplies to filling stations would help meet this shortage. If present methods fail to eliminate danger of shutdowns for Industry and home heating plants, Davies said officials were ready to operate a rigid ration ing plan. But he added they hoped to avoid such drastic action. Davies flatly disputed rumors he said had been circulated that the shortage "is being played up to foster war psychology: that a shortage has been created arti ficially to assure passage of a pipeline bill" or that a shortage of gasoline "was deliberately precipitated." east of Butte Falls on the Butte Falls Prospect road about 10 p. m.
