Watch results of the Senate
Small Business Committee hear­

oil squeeze. They may indicate
how small business will fare in
the new Congress.

Three years ago, when the Chi­
cago fuel oil situation became
greasy, the committee, then
headed by Sen. Wherry (Kep.,
Neb.), acted rapidly.

costing about $5,000 is needed.
Drivers must be paid; business
and vehicle taxes paid.

To accommodate his customers

fair size home In a severely cold
month will use not more than $45
worth of oil at present prices as
compared to $24 in 1940. Yet for
delivery and bookkeeping serv­
ices, even on a 2< margin, the
dealer was only getting a very
small gross protit on a $45 sale.

Approximately 100 independent
fuel oil dealers courageously de­
fying the tacit threats of retalia­
tion filed affidavits with the Sen­
ate Small Business Committee
through facilities maintained by
organized small business.
• * *
These affidavits present a
spine-chilling story. Major oil
companies, from whom these
dealers buy, also retail fuel oil.
The affidavits give evidence of
collusion, conspiracy and co­
ercion.

Major oil companies were
“Johnny-comelatelys" in fuel oil

business 50 years, pioneered oil

Three years ago. the Senate
Small Business Committee under
the aggressive leadership of
Senator Wherry stopped them,

“Why," members of the Senate

"did not the Justice Department

Big Oil apparently wields an

I.UZIERS COSMETK'-S
Isn't it amazing how quickly
home furnishings become soiled in
the winter time? My white glass
curtains in the living room, for in­
stance, seem to absorb all the fire­
place smoke — actually get grey.
Well, this week I decided to get an
early start on Spring cleaning and
washed all my curtains, blankets
and slipcovers, and when I dried
them, 1 almost cried — the curtains
were yellow — and so were my
beautiful white woolen blankets!
Luckily, though, a neighbor dropped
in just then and saved the day with
a package of a really wonder bluing
called “Whitex.” It's one of the six
related products put out by the
famous Tintex dye concern. It isn’t
an ordinary bluing or bleach, and
it works on all kinds of fabrics —
even nylon, rayon, silk and wool.
You’d never believe what that little
package did for my furnishings —
restored the original whiteness in a
jiffy! And imagine, being able to
use it on wool blankets and nylon
curtains — to say nothing of my
white nylon blouses and slips.
I think you'll be as excited as I
am about another budget-soother
made by the same house. It's a fast­
acting color remover that needs no
boiling and works on all fabrics, in­
cluding the man-made fibers. If you
do tintexing as often as I, you know
that taking out the old color first
is advisable when the article is un­
evenly faded or spotted. And it's a
“must” when you want to get a
lighter shade on a dark-colored ar­
ticle or when you want to re-dye
the wearable or home decoration an
entirely new or different color. Like
the wonder bluing, you can get the
color remover at all-fabric dye
counters for fifteen cents to a quar­
ter a box.
