PROBE MAY BE CAUSE

1t is probable that the price Of gasoline
IN this cV will take a drop in the immedi-
a'e future. IL was learned from several
large oil companies operating here that such
action has been seriously considered, The
present prevailing cost per gallon TO con-
su'ners in Philadelphia is rs cents 1t may
so to 90 or 9I within a few davs.
Inc forecast of a reduction follows the
report that it Is generally understood Con.
gress will be told the remedy for the high
cost in gasoline lies in regulation of
gasoline manufacturers to insure real COM
petition The Federal Trade Commission
has completed its final report on the SUBJ
ject and it will he sent to Congress next
week
Efforts will be made to regulate the
price of gasoline in this city to correspond
with the New Jersey rate per gallon. which
Is "a cents to consumer per gallon at the
present time The cent difference has
created great dissatisfaction among local
owners of automobiles
The Standard oil Company Of New York
announced a one cent reduction yesterday.
The new prices are 23 cents to garages and
"a cents to consumers. In several New
England States and New Jersey a reduc-
tion has taken place a report from New
Orleans shows a decrease of two cents
against the price one month ago and
further cut is expected in the near future.
The local manager of large company
in Philadelphia said today that the break in
crude oil brought about the changes. despite
the fact that the demand was greater than
ever. The enormous demand for gasoline
for Europe continues, but that he had found
that the gasoline consumed in this city
per automobile was less than in 1915. The
reasons given were the high prices primar-
