trouble. A whiel back it was the
Government which, as a buyer,
was objecting to the prices fixed
by cement interests. Then 1t
was the Government that sought
to break the price fixed by steel
interests for rails.
Now the Government itself has
announced prices to be fixed for
oil and its products, and we find
hundreds of others complaining.
Small independents and big
integrated companies alike are
Directing.
Chances For Insiders
And it is objected that Pitts
burgh oil man who is on the
governments oil advisory COM
mittee would make SO much
money under the proposed high
prices that he would soon recoup
his big income tax deficit" and
his contributions to political cam
paign funds.
You see, there are always diff
ferent and conflicting interests
incolved, and these are so compli.
Gated and so changing that no
wise man would attempt the role
Of price fixer.
Buyers want low prices, and
sellers want high prices. Some
oil men produce only crude oil.
Others produce only gasoline and
fuel oil. Others only market
gasoline and "lubes." Others do
all these things. Their interests
in the various products are very
different.
Hard to Fix Costs
It is utterly impossible to find
the cost of these different prod
ucts and services, and if that
could be done we would not know
whose cost to take, for no two
producers costs would be the
same.
There is absolutely no such
thing as a flair average COST
In fact, no average cost" could
possibly be fair. The average
would necessarily be too high fo1
about half the producers, and toe
low for the other half.
