FUEL OIL CONSUMERS
URGED TO FILL TANKS
Because the Pacific war will
take 8,400,000 more gallons of
petroleum products daily at its
peak than is being used today,
Chester Bowles. OPA . adminis
trator, and Ralph K. Davics, de
puty petroleum administrator,
cautioned fuel-oil consumers that
home-heating oil supplies will be
tight next winter and joined in
an appeal to householders to fill
their fuel-oil storage tanks im
mediately. "Military needs for fuel oil
are continuing to increase and
will reach a peak this winter at
the time when civilian fuel oil
needs, too, are heaviest," Mr.
Davies said. "Obviously,- de
mands on the nation's heavily
burdened transportation system
will follow a similar pattern,
making it imperative for house
holders to stock up early this
summer so that dealers can re
fill their own storage tanks
while transportation still is
available."
