Find Out If Firms Agreed
on Boost.

Investigation of the recent nation
wide increase in the price of gaso-
line was ordered yesterday by the
Senate.

fore and that prices for crude oil
were below what they were some

determine whether recent increases
have been made by some companies or
by all companies; whether there has
been any understanding or agree
ment between various companies to
raise prices and whether there is any
natural cause" for an increase.
