AMERICAN OIL
 COMP PANIES TO i ENTER FRANCE

PARIS, May 25 (by Associated Press). oil companies are awaiting with keen interest the pass age of the petroleum bill, now before the chamber of deputies. which opens the French market to all countries on an equal basis, for the first time since the war. Oil has been a gov ernment monopoly during that period.
 The French government has prom ised that the measure will be ,effec- tive June 1 and officials of American oil concerns in Paris confidently ex- poets the passage of the act. The adoption will mark the close of sev- eral years of intensive effort on the part of American companies to obtain permission to do business in France.
 Several American oil companies have established offices in Paris and selling their products in France on the American plan.
 The first plan which the American companies will put into effect is a scheme to reduce the price of gaso- line to the consumer.
 The government through it's mono poly has sustained considerable loss and it has on hand at the present time an eight months supply of oil which cost it 2,000,000,0OO francs more than the present market price.
 It is understood that the American concerns probably will take over this stock and import American oil. The price of the two will be averaged and the French consumer given the benefit of reduction. The price of gasoline in France today is about 85 cents a gallon.
 Statements have been made in the chamber of deputies to the effect that the consumer is paying one third higher price under government con- trol than under free trade, while the government is losing 15,000,000 francs 1auuthly.
