HAS MONOPOLY In
GASOLINE, CLAIM

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 16 (E1-
Monopoly by the Standard Oil conf
pany Of processes for cracking
crude oil to produce a greater quan-
tity of gasoline has resulted in
price increase of two to three cents
q gallon, Alexander B. Royce, special
assistant to the United States at
torney general, asserted today in
opening the case OF the government
i'll its equity suit against the Stand
ard Oil company OF Indian and 81
other Oil companies. Arguments are
being heard before Charles Mar
tindale, master in chancery.
About 25 per cent OF the total
gasoline supply of the country is
cracked" Royce declared. This gaso-
line first was sold from tC. 3 cents
q gallon cheaper than other gasoline,
he said, but since the contracts
which he alleged have resulted i'll a
monopoly in restraint OF trade in
violation of the Sherman antitrust
act, the Cracked gasoline is mixed
with and is sold at the price OF the
other kinds of gasoline.
The Standard Oil company 1n-
diana), the New Jersey company, The
Texas company and the Gasoline
products company are primary de-
PENDANTS III the suit John w. Davis
New YORK, former democratic preS1-
dental nominee, appeared as CHIEF
counsel FOR the defense attorneys
William Donovan, first assistant to

of the governments attorneys.
BY agreements licensing other
companies to use the Standard Oil
cracking" process, the government
alleges the Oil companies have gained
power to restrict the production o1
this type Of gasoline; have destroyed
competition of owners OF patents OF
competing Oil cracking" processes;
lave imposed injltstified royalties
which stifle competition, and have
raised royalty rates to licenses.
Royce asserted that the companies
named as defendants have attempted
to monopolize interstate trade and
commerce in cracked" gasoline, ano
combination and conspiracy in re-
straint of trade and commerce has
been drawn up by reason of the
license agreements, and that the
secondary defendants have been
drawn into the conspiracy also by
