New York, Sept. 29.--Since the first
"gasless Sunday" ten cargo boats
carrying 100000 barrels Of gasolene,
which otherwise could not have been

Mark l.. Requa, director of the oil di-

before hundreds of manufacturers
and engineers pledged to conserve
coal and fuel oil to help win the war.
"Not less than 25,OOO,OO0 barrels Of
crude oil more than the United Sta
ties consumed last year must be pro
duced this year, total of 365,0O0,-
GOO barrels, or approximately 70 per
cent of the worlds entire output
Mr. Requa said.
every new destroyer will add to
this amount; every airplane will use
thirty gallons of gasolene per hour;
every tank, motor truck and ambu-
lance must have the products OF pc
troleum and must have help in maxi
ing these products available"
Government inspectors, it was said,
will visit all plants at intervals TO
ascertain how efficiently coal and oil
are being used. Plants will be elias
sified as follows; Excellent, so to
100 per cent; good, so to 80 per cent;
fair, 70 to so per cent; poor, 60 to 70
per cent. When inefficiency and
waste of fuel is observed negligent
