AUTO|STS JOYOUS
GAS AGA|NDROPS
Market Quotation at Gulf Sta.
tons Now II Gents Per
Gallon.

There is unusual eclat and citation in
the auto world. at least so far as the
gasoline consumer Is concerned. Gas,
which has been doing the Humpty-
Dumpty during the past week, TOOK an
other fall Saturday morning and is now
holding forth at II cents per gallon.
This is the lowest quotation on the
volatile fluid which has been the pleas
uTe OF the general driving public to en-
JOY for two years with the resumption
OF summer travel, provided the oil mag.
mates do not hastily reconsider their
late decision, cars are expected to be
seen on all the highways and byways
IN greater number than usual.
The latest reduction so far is con-
lined to the Gulf Refining OF
Louisiana, which hung Up i7-cent signs
Saturday with the advent OF the day 3
business, This Ia . cent lower than
the selling price which had been in EFF.
feet for The past few days. When M
merry WARRIOR 1t is said It is a war
between the Standard Oh company in
terest and the Gulf interests-began a
week ago, che prevailing price AT all
filling stations vas g cents per gallon.
Each drop. at an Interval Of only two
or three days. has been 2 cents. Quo
tattnns at the Standard filling stations
saturday were given rs IS cents per
gallon,
According to r. G. Walker, manage
Of the Gun Refining company here, the
drop is mol caused by prevailing mar
ket conditions or s~urplusage Of KaSo-
line, but Is merely a local war, con-
fined alone 10 the state Of Tennessee.
Protection Of Gulf retailers is his rea-
son ascribed for the commercial rivalry.
