SENATE TO INVESTIGATE
GASOLINE SITUATION

Washington, Sept GA resolution introduced by
Senator Lodge minority leader and adopted by the
ate today calling upon the fuel administration to furnish
facts and figures about oil and gasoline production and
supply will bring really interesting developments accord
ing to semi official reports in Washington tonight
1t whispered about the that the object of
the resolution to reveal that the gasoneess Sun
day order of the oil division of the fuel administration
absolutely needless and that the fuel administration
has been grossly deceived by the oil producing compa
MES and especially the Standard Oil in order to create
false shortage in the oil and gasoline market and increase
the prices of oil and gasoline.
DR.. Garfield would not comment on this report but
result of the resolution coupled with the report that
spread through Washington will be to hasten the fixing
of the price of oil and gasoline and when the price of
gasoline is fixed it will be standard throughout the coun-
try and will be lower than the prevailing price in the

will be lower than the prevailing price
If the oilproducing companies therefore have been
guilty of deceivng the official bureau in con-
troll of the product they will find that their campaign of
deception has had decidedly boomerang effect and that
instead of proting by the opportunity to sell great sur

will have to sell oil and gasoline at fixed price not only
in the United States but buyers for the allied nations
who are so greatly in need of both oil and gasoline

Great Britain as 10 Haig are not
regarded here as sound the prin-
cipal reason being that he has not
been acclaimed AS q hero by the
British cabinet.
The only possible ground for a

of a policy announced by Secretary
