STANDARD OIL HAS MONOPOLY

"The unsatisfactory situation in
Montana and adjacent Rocky noun
tain states," says the report of the
Federal Trade Commission, "is evi-
dently due to the fact that oil. trade
in this region is practically monopo-
lized by Standard Oil interests. This
monopolistic position was perfected
in 1920 and 1921, when the Standard
Oil Company Of Indiana secured con-
troll of the Midwest Refining Com
pany and acquired one-half inter
est in the Sinclair Pipe Line Com.
pany and the Sinclair Crude Oil Pur.
chasing Company.
ffSinclair interests Have recently
obtained important leases in THE
Teapot Dome Of the Salt Creek fielC
in Wyoming. Standard companies
now dominate every branch Of the
petroleum business of the entire
Rocky mountain region"
"The entire country" the report
asserted, "is divided into eleven stan
dard gasoline marketing territories
in which Standard marketing com
pany is the dominating factor and il
which there is no real competition be
tween the various Standard units"
The Commission expresses the opin
ion that the situation can not b.
effectually remedied by existing Law
and recommends that adequate relic.
can only be secured through add
tional legislation.

RADIO EXPANSION

A "fan" is a 'sfan" whether in Pa
tagonia or Iceland. Evidence of
increasing interest the world over.
No product felectrical manufac-
turer has ever taken the world so by
storm as has the radio telephone re-
ceiving set, according to statement
made by the Electrical Division OF
the Department Of Commerce. All
over the globe broadcasting stations
are daily disseminating news, music,
and commercial information to thou
sands of radio enthusiasts. Out
side of a few countries where exist
ing political conditions have impos-
ed restrictions, the use Of radio is
being taken up universally. The
development has been most rapid in
this country; in Europe, in South
America, in Australia, and to some
extent in Africa and Asia, broad
casting stations are being installed,
with resultant increasing demand
for receiving sets.
AS an interesting featureg OF the
sales abroad, there has for several
mlonths been a considerable call fol
receiving sets from our neighbors
on the north and south-Canada
Cuba, Mexico, and Central Amenica
where radio "fans" found that tube
sets would permit them to readily
listen in on some of the important
American broadcasting service.
