FUEL HEADS TO ASSUME CHARGE
 OF OIL SUPPLY

Chicago, March S0.-Whatever is necessary to obtain for the government the supply of gasolene and other pc troleum products essential to the con- duct of the war will be done by the fuel administration, Mark I. Requa, chief of the oil division, told the Pe- troleum Congress here today. Zonal distribution of oil, pooling of tank cars and steamers, licensing of jobbers, To- cation of oil well supplies and means to prevent profteering may be insti- tuted if required to meet the national emergency.
 MT. Requa assured the oil men, how ever, that government control of the industry does not signify disaster or that individuals are to be deprived of the rewards of their energy and initia- tive. Rather, control is intended to aid the industry in performing normal functions which because of the wars dislocating effects are impossible of performance in the normal way. The producer stands but little chance in in- dividual competition with government department for priority of supplies and of transportation and unless some government department was charged with sympathetic supervision, the un- represented interest would fare badly.
