HARTMAN WOULD STOP
EXPECTATION OF GASOLINE
From a Staff Correspondent.l

LINCOLN, March 11.-(Special)-Oil In
spector Hartman has sent a communica-
ton to the democratic members of con-
gress asking that they use their Influence
with congress to have an embargo placed
on expectations of oil and gasolinel to
other countries.
He gives as his reasons for such action
that on account of the large amount Of
gasoline and other oils going to other
countries and the increased used made
of 1t in this country that the price of
gasoline has gone from 10 cents a year
ago to 20 cents at the prestnt time. In
1911 the expectations of gasoline were
1900 900 gallons, but the 1915 expectations
increased to about 2SO0O,OO0 gallons.
He believes that it will be necessary for
the United States TO conserve it's output
of gasoline or it will find itself up against
a practically prohibitive price. He calls
attention to several states in the south
where owners have had to store their
cars because the price of gasoline has
gone up to 40 cents a gallon.
Commissioner Hartman says that ship
builders are now getting ready to build
twenty-nine new ships of an especial type
for the carrying of gasoline and he be-
lieves that some active measures should
be taken for the protection of the oil
industry
