Striving to Control Bust

OIL NOW IL CENTS,
MAY DROP STILL MORE
Big Concern Wakes Up to r l.,
Francis Idea of Supply
ing Automobiles

Gasoline is now selling for IL cents
a gallon in Detroit, while neighboring
cities are paying l6 and II cents. In
dications are that the price will drop
TO 10 cents, before long, and that there
may be a still further decrease. 1t
is now lower than il has even been
before
The real reason for the low price
is the fact that a quiet war Is on be-
tween the Standard Oil Co. and the
Central OH & Gasoline stations The
Standard is building stations of its
own, in various parts Of the city, and
il Is said by those on the inside that
il means to try TO drive the Central
out OF business The Central gets its
oil from independent producers, and
is said TO have sufficient backing to
be able to withstand every effort OF
the Standard
The Central Oil q Gasoline co. is
the product OF the brain OF X l..
Francis. who found himself in De
troit. two years ago. with "A very few
dollars and a big idea lie establish
ed the FIRST public gasoline station In
Detroit, at Fort and Ffrst-sts,, con
sisting OF a platform and an oil pump
leading to tank. He now has 2S
stations i'm various parts OF the city,
and is doing a tremendous business.
Mr. Francis secured his first oil
from the Standard. but when they
saw what he was doing. they cut OF
his supply He had considerable diff

time owing TO the fear that other
dealers had or the Standard but II
was not long before he succeeded in
making contracts with independent
dealers outside Of Detroit, guarantee
ing him a supply.
N took the Standard some time 10
wake up 10 the situation AT first. II
tried To work through men who, imi-
tating Mr. Francis established sta
lions In various parts OF the city, but
this plan was not as successful as the
company had anticipated, so az last
II decided 70 build stations OF its own.
There is not very much money I'm
the sale OF gasoline but there is con
siderable in the various oils and
preases which the stations handle.
and the volume of gasoline sold
causes the slight profit per gallon 10

Mr.. Francis declares that he does
NOT seek battle with the Standard
but scouts the idea that the big con.
