Refinery Signs Pact
Ending 0PACourt TesI
On Fuel Oil Sale
Stipulation States
Firm Will Sell Product
On Equal Bosis TO All
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. Designing of
a stipulation by representatives of
the Sinclair Refining Co. and the
Office of Price Administration ended
the OPA's court test of its recent
order banning discrimination in the
sale Of fuel oil
This action came yesterday in
Federal Court when the company
agreed to discontinue the alleged
discriminatory practices and to sell
on an equal basis to all persons
entitled under the OPA rationing
order to buy fuel oil.
Injunction Move Dropped.
The OPA obtained a temporary
restraining order against the com
pany Wednesday and argument was
heard yesterday on the Federal
agency's application to make it per-
manent. With the signing of the
stipulation the restraining order
was vacated and the action to
obtain a permanent injunction was
dropped.
Sylvan Joseph, OPA regional ad-
ministrator, hailed the action as
foreShadowing an end to alleged
discrimination which he charged had
been practiced against independent
concerns by many of the large
suppliers.
Joseph P. Walsh, counsel for Sim
clair, said his company had been
acting under orders of the Petro-
leum Administration for War, which
he claimed apparently con1icted
with the OPA procedure in seeking
an equitable distribution of fuel oil
supplies in the East Coast area.
Violation Charged.
In placing all major companies
under quotas based on l941 sales.
the PAW in one of it's orders, he
told Judge Samuel Mandelbaum,
provided for preferences or dis
elimination, if you please, and re-
quired us to observe this practice"
He added that the OPA order,
issued in Washington January 9,
was not published in the Federal
Register until January 13 and a copy
did not reach the company Offices
in New York until January IA.
When asking for a permanent in
junction, Irwin c. Rutter, regional
OPA enforcement attorney, charged
that the Sinclair company had vio-
lated the anti discrimination order
| after it was issued and had con-
tlnued to do so until as late as
January 20.
In signing the stipulation. Mr..
Walsh said that Sinclair now would
sell fuel oil on a first come first
served basis that he declared would
put golf courses on the same basis
with hospitals in the matter of
redeeming their fuel oil ration
coupons.
The Sinclair company operates
1900 bulk depots throughout the
country.
