Fuel Oil Distribution to Be Regulated

GONE plan for the regulation of the
y distribution of fuel oil may he
resorted 10 If the present menace of
n serious shortage continues. A con
ference of representatives Of the lead
ing rpfineries and users of fuel oil to
work ont some Joint plan of distribu-
tion has been suggested by Secretary
of Commerce Alexander. "N.
The suggestion has been made par
tcularly with reference to the situn.
tion in California, In a letter to Sena-
tor Phclaa of that state. Secretary
Alexander opposes any embargo be-
cause of its effect upon American px-
mort trade. He takes the position that
nm embargo should be used only AS ii
last resort.
Latest figures show that the navy
now needs S.OOO.OO0 barrels of fuel oil
. ycnr and that the shipping board,
with its new merchant fleet, will re-
ouire 10000, 900 barrels for 1920 and
40 600 900 barrels for 1921. -
The demnnd for fuel oil for the
shins of the navy and government
owned merchant marine nlcae equals

Gneries for about -four months.
