That the Standard Oil company re-
Gently had options on sites for pump
ing stations in Pendleton but later per-
mitted the options to lapse, is rumor
that has gone the rounds in the city.
Then shortly after the lapse of these
options came the news like a thunder
bolt that the Shell company is coming
to. compete in the local field.
Dealers predict that with the whole
sale business divided among three con-
Germs, Standard, Union and Shell, the
probabilities are strong that one COM
pany will get into the retail end of the
game. If one does, then all three will,
and such action will have the result of
lowering the margin of the dalrs.
Tn the meantime farmers who year
or two ago thought they night not be
able to secure distillate and gasoline
for harvesting purposes have settled
down and are wondering if there is d
turn about to be reached in the lane.

SEVERAL RETAILERS
PREDICT THAT PRICE
WILL EASE TWO CENTS
Advent of Shell Company Into
Local Field Held Probable
Cause of Expected Change.

Will the advent of the Shell COM
+ pany mean lower gasoline costs for the
ultimate consumer in Pendleton:
There is difference of opinion on
that interesting question but retailers
are Inclined to the belief that within
a comparatively short time the price
of gas locally will move down at least
two cents from its present standard of
80 cents the gallon.
''It wouldn't surprise me to see gas
oline handled on a margin of two
cents the gallon by the retailers" sew
eral Pendieton dealers said today.
That would make the price 20 IL
cents. Others predicted that before
many more weeks have passed 80 cent
gas may reasonably be expected.
The dealers are not unanimous in
their belief about prices, however.
Representatives Of two stations in
Pendleton declared that it seemed
logical to expect reductions, but they
doubted whether competition started
by the Shell company would bring
down the price. They admitted the
possibility Of such action but doubted
that it will come to pass.
On the other hand, other retailers
are going strong on the supposition
that the gas prices will slide down a
notch or two.
walla Walla prices are considerably
lower than Pendleton prices on this
commodity, but several elements en-
ter into the difference. For one thing.
local dealers point out that in WASH
ington the state has tax of only one
cent the gallon of gas whereas Oregon
exacts the payment of two cents. The
consumer always pays special taxes,
SO that explains why the price in Ore
gon might logically be expected to be
one cent above Washington prices.
Another explanation of lower gas
costs to car owners in the neighboring
state is the fact that dealers in Walla
Walla have been in the midst of q gas
way for almost q var. and several deal
sery are said tcs be sesliag At less than
wholesale cost. Others are selling at
cost and some at a profit of one-half
cent the gallon,
