Answers Editorial
On Gasoline Prices

On June IL, the Hungry Horse
News published an editorial to the
effect that Montana's increasing
importance as an oil producing
state was not reflecting itself in
lower gasoline prices.
The following is an interesting
letter from Bronson G.. Stevenson,
Great Falls, who is associated with
the petroleum industry in the
state. He's an outstanding citizen.
Still not answered, even after
reading the letter however, is the
situation of Montana gasoline
prices, exclusive of taxes, being
as high as any in the 48 states.
Here is Mr.. Stevenson's letter:
Dear Mr.. Ruder:
/ have read your recent edi-
torial about gasoline prices based
on a similar editorial run by Mr..
Byerly, Publisher Of the "Lewis-
town Daily News"
Why is error so popular? The
erroneous statement or propaganda
"a perennial with politicians) that
"Tulsa Plus" is the basis of gaso-
line prices charged by Montana
refiners and marketers is one that
ranks with the following:
(D That Calico climbed the
Tower of Pisa and dropped two
cannon balls of different weight to
disprove Aristotle's theory that
heavier balls fall faster. (He
didn't).
(2) That Voltaire said, don't
agree with what you say, but l
will defend to the death your right
to say it." (He never said SOY. The
quotation comes from book about
Voltaire written in 1907.
You may or may not recall our
here several years ago un-
der very pleasant circumstances
when our mutual friend, Joe How
ard was living. Incidently, Joe
used to call me "Tulsa Plus Stew
enson" because of my concern in
trying to debunk that erroneous
concept. At any rate, for back
ground l will state that have
been marketing gasoline and oil
products on a wholesale basis for
over thirty years, and I hope my
reputation is such that you will
believe me long enough to accum-
ulate the facts to prove to yourself |
that "Tulsa Plus" is a big lie
against the Montana oil industry
and always has been so far back
as can remember it being leveled
against us by politicians and 9TH
ers.

laxity, absentee landlords and the
like make some predominately
Negro neighborhoods a problem,
but there is no reason to reflect
upon an entire community because
of them.
Frankly, we don't know what
Mr.. White intended to say. We
wonder if he was suggesting that
Lucy, being a woman of refined
taste, should live somewhere other
than Harlem. If so, he proves he
hasn't made visit "up there" He
would have done better to suggest
that if people like her come out
of Harlem, then it is not such a
den of iniquity as some people

Ahead
By OLIVE A. ADAMS

NEW YORK, (GlobaD William
Chapman White, writing in last
Fridays New York Herald Tri-
bune, recounted an incident involv-
ing a woman and her Negro maid.
We are still wondering what it
meant, but in the meantime, 1t
spanked a number of thoughts on
the wealth of miSinformation most
white people have regarding Ne
groes and their lives.
1t seems the maid, one Lucy JEFF
ferson, lives two lives-one on her
job in the luxury of the house she
keeps for the Lithicomes and their
young son, and another in the drab
apartment house in which she lives
with her young son. (Her husband,
faithfully following the script"
had run out on herr It seems the
boys met quite by chance one day
when their mothers had taken
them to the Museum of Natural
History, and found they had SINH
lar interests. The rich lady was
surprised to discover that the poor
ladys body had picked up little
culture here and there and liked to
go to Museums and the like, too.
The two mothers got to talking,
just as mothers, and the rich lady
asked her maid how she managed
when she had to leave her boy
alone all day. She asked, as mat
ter of fact, if she wasn't just a
little afraid to leave him alone "up
there"-meaning Harlem.
Whatever the story was sup
posed to say, the last question is
the one that gave us reason to
pause and ponder. Why is it that
whenever white people meet Ne
groes whom they consider the
least bit respectable, they begin TO
wonder if they aren't terribly lone
ly If they meet a few who are
well-educated, cultured and accom-
plished, they wonder how they live
among the barbarians. Now, it
probably never occurred to the
rich lady" that it is just possible
that there are other people living
in that same apartment house who
are just as fine as Lucy and there
fore, to refer to "up there" as
though it was some sort of jungle,
might be something of an insult to
Lucy's neighbors. Perhaps police

Under Greene's plan. small
clubs in all States, not just one,
would be helped.
I'VE have records on the clubs
