In creased consumption, not diminished supply. Is given as the cause of the gasoline shortsge. In a statement Is sued Sunday by the Standard Oil company ot California. - "In 1915 there were 339,000 motor vehicles on the Pacific Coast, In 1930 more than 780,000," the statement says. ','In 1916 there were 3,009 tractors; In 1950 at lesst 35,080. There are many thousands ot gas engines In operation. "In 1918 the company's sales of gasoline amounted to 153,000,000 gallons;' in 1919, 193,900,000, white the sales ot 1930 wilt be mora than 300.000,000 gallons. So far this year the company has sold 48.4 par cent more gasoline than for the same period ot last year. "Reserve stocks of crude oil amounted to 58,500,000 barrels In 1916, to only 36,600,000 on May 31, 1930. Standard Oil reserve stocks ot gasoline on January 1, 1918, were 37,000,000 gallons; a year later 14, 300,000, and this year 4,400,000 gal lons, or but 88,000 barrels, or which 1 per cent was unavailable, being In tnnk bottoms and pipe lines." Production ot crude oil this year Is estimated at a llttlo more than 100,000,000 barrels, and at the pres ent rate consumption this year will be more than 110,000,000 barrels. "In other words," says the state ment, "the Pacific Coast will this year consume 10,000,000 barrels ot crude, oil more than produced. This company alone Is buying 90,000,000 gallons ot gasoline east ot the Rock ies 'and from Mexico which goes to points formerly dependent upon Cal ifornia for supplies." The statement points out that while there are more than 3,000 mora wells this year than in 1916, MKDFORD, Oro., July SI. Al fred Parkhurst, president and man ager ot the Crater Lake company, which holds the concessions at Crat er Lake, and who explained condi tions at the lake at the Informal luncheon with leading Medford busi ness men, will stsnd pat and will not give up his concessions In spite ot the order of Stephen Mather, direc tor of national parks. In an Interview later Mr. Park hurst said; "The main hotel and Anna Spring camp hotel are open and have been all the time with a full crew of em ployes and able to give first-class accommodations up to the limit of their capacity. Despite the state ment of Mr. Mather given out at Portland this week, thst In his re cent visit to the lake he had gtven me notice that I must give up my concessions within two weeks, I am In full charge and expect to be tho rest ot the season. I have contracts tor these concessions with the gov ernment. "At no time has Alexander Spar row, superintendent of Crater Na tional park, been placed In charge ot the hotel accommodations, or In part charge by Mr. Mather, but I am re ceding as I always have received the usual friendly .and Informal co-operation ol Mr. Sparrow. "Also the report that almost tha entire staff of my employes quit ear ly this week Is erroneous. The en tire trouble was stirred up by a steward who, after he had been dis charged, tried t tnaaee the eatlra staff to quit,, hat Mir nine did m. a BIMClll iMbb am Mfclto imMlfMr. H "The steward also was an agita tor. He told Mr. Mather a lot of er roneous information about me and hotel conditions. Instead ot having red 400 or more people at tne lake on July 4, as related by Mr. Mather and tho steward, the truth Is that only 134 were red and they were well taken care of." m t BIG BOXING CARD FOR BROTHER BILLS SALEM, Ore., Juty 31.
