GASOLINE PRODUCTION
LARGER IN JANUARY

By the Associated Press.
A January natural gasoline produc-
ton OF 5,875,000 gallons daily was re-
ported today by the Bureau of Mines.
Daily production during December
averaged 1888, 900 gallons.
The slight increase in the produc-
tion Of natural gasoline was in con-
trast to decline of crude petroleum
production during January.
Blending at refineries declined ma
terially during the month, with the
result that stocks increased from
8,106,000 gallons, compared with de-
cline of approximately twice that
amount in December.
