GASOLINE PRODUCTION.

Just how much truth there is in thi statement has
been disclosed by Van Manning director of the Bureau
Of Mines Department OF the Interior in the yearly state

In 1915 before the United States entered the war; ac
erdng TO the statement the production of gasoline
little short Of 50OOO000 barrels 1917 when war
tivy accelerated by the entry United States
into the the production of gasoline
nearly 6S0000oo barrels an increase of more than So
go barrels day
1t was thought by many that this must be the peak
Of American ptarioc effort but in 1915 when the war
had assumed greater proportions production of
gasoline S50O00OO barrels for the
of than 100000 barrels The daily increase
for this the recordbreakng year of 1917 was
about $4,000 barrels for each of the 800 days. almost
as much as the increase of the previous year
How this country sent ever-increasing food of
gasoline to the Allies and to friendly countries
in the export figures In 1916 there were S7421o2 bar
increased to 9901S7 barrels increase of about 1000
barrels day In 1918 these exports had reached total
of 1931250S barrels nearly 10000 barrels
a day over the year 1917.
1t is the opinion of Mr. Manning that 10 single in

such showing in single year and he doubts if the

NO PROFITEERING IN
GOLDSBORO SAYS SECRETARY

Ihe secretary of the GoldsbOro
Chamber of Commerce issued a.
statement last night in which he
says that owing to several requests
that the seemingly high prices be-
ing charged by retail merchants of
this city be investigated he had as
sisted in getting reports and figures
from 25 North Carolina and Vfr-
ginia cities, with the result that he
finds that GoIdsboro merchants are
hot charging excessiye prices.
In justice to the chamber secre-
tary your correspondent wishes To
announce that he is not a married
man, therefore if he has made an
investigation in Goldsboro regard
ing the II. G. L. he has either been
badly misinformed in comparing his
figures with other towns, or else his
efforts in regard to investigating
the prevailing prices in Goldsboro
at present and in the past were
meager. 1t must be said to the
credit of some Goldsboro merchants
that they have not as a whole made
practice of prof1teering, while 9TH
ers have, and large number OF
housewives have complained of hav-
rg to pay Is cents per pond for
sugar and excessive prices for
number of other commodities. es-
! pecially canned goods and -four.
Eggs that are retailing in this
city for 60 cents a dozen are being

agents to Go1dsboro and make

chase in this city at the present pre-

HILLES SAYS COTTON
WILL GO TO 40 CENTS

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE ad-
Vlsory tax board. which was estab-
Ilshed under law of 1918 to advise
with Commissioner Of Internal Rev
enue Collector Roper in the admin
1stration of the income and excess
profits tax laws will be dissolved at
the end of September Stuart w.
Cramer, a cotton manufacturer of
Charlotte, is member of the board
The original of the advisory tax
board arose out of the necessity of
strengthening the ordinary forces
of the Internal Revenue Bureau to
administer the unprecedented taxes
imposed by the law. In 1917
twelve prominent business men and
experts in taxation and in addition
three of the ablest lawyers obtain
able, were secured to act as review
ers and advisors. The number Of
this body was gradually decreased
during 1918 and with the passage
of the revenue act of 1918 the num-
Der was fixed at five to be known as
the advisory tax board and to serve
as long as the need for such outside
assistance and advice should be re-
quired by the commissioner of in
terna1 revenue.
Nothing can prevent cotton
from attaining to 40 cents a pound
in my opinion said Major ]. O.
Hilles, of Memphis, in in interview
in a Washington newspaper.
