WashingtOn Center of Interest

The news from Washington is Of
far greater Importance to the oil fra
ternity than anything that can pos
sihly happen here AT home. At any
time, now that the senate has adopted
the house measure and incorporated
oil and gas into the food bill, we arc
likely TO have some sort Of govern
mcnt control.
The best posted oil men who have
recently Visited Washington are not
pessimistic. however. and do not be
lieve that oil Will bc put In the same
class with wheat. because OF the sen
sitivc nature of the oil business.
But at that. the news from Wash
ington as II develops. Is being watched
with greater interest day by day.
What the government may do about
the price of fuel oil makes all the diff
ference In the world
Some Zine ago, or to be exact. last
December one of the pipe line com
panics doing business on the gulf
coast, made an unusually low bid
when II offered the government fuel
oil at SO cents
Secretary Daniels seems to think
because the price was ohtainable. 1t
should be now, but in that he tx de
cidedly mistaken because the price
was too low even with crude oil Mt
,
on the coast because since that time
fuel oil has become the fuel depended
upon by all manufacturers for good
service, Just as the navy adopted 1t
as the best possible fuel.
The 1000. 900 barrel contract said
to be demanded by the government Is
now thot to he absolutely mistake
and never intended by the govern
ment. which clears up the situation
nightly.
All-in-all. things do not look so bad
as they might and the chances are
that before another week rolls
around, the government will recodo
I from It's 50 cent price and accept
/ bids at n higher figure.
The demand for fuel oil Is much
| heavier since the question came be
fore the board than formerly and
manufacturers are making contracts
at any sort Of price obainable,
