line prices, higher by fractions to 2
cents. have been posted in a number
Of States in the East, from Maine
down 70 South Carolina. In the Mid.
west motorists will also have to pay
more for gasoline.
One of the most favorable outcomes
of the boost in crude was the ternai-
nation OF the gasoline price war
which had been raging In metropolitan
New York for the last few weeks. It
was in this district that the extreme
advances of 2 cents q gallon took ef-
feet. In the borough Of Brooklyn, for
instance. gasoline had been selling at
11.3 cents a gallon, not including the
tax. and the advance raised the price
to 1875 cents.
In the Mid Continent area, the tank
car gasoline price was raised "a
cent gallon this week to the best
level touched since 1890. In its terri
tory, Standard Oil of Ohio also upped
the tank car price "a cent, and
higher prices are predicted In Standard

vanced prices II cent a gallon for all

York State with the exception OF the
western section) and in New England.
Higher prices OF heating oils and kero-
sene OF various grades were announced
by rHnber Of companies.
Higher crude oil and motor fuel
prices at this time have no relation to
demand. for this Is the season Of
dwtndling consumption. The latest
figures available, for the week ended
January II, indicated q seasonal in
crease of about 500. 900 barrels Of fin
