cheney apartment at 100 Har-
ward street NV, Deputy Fire

ported.

The fire, which broke out at

the connecting hallway. Mar
shall Mileo said.
Miss Albertsen, who was en-
ployed in the personnel office

A German shepherd dog died
last night in a blaze that did
extensive damage to a brick
rambler home in Bethesda, fire
officials reported.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. L. Roth,
occupants of the house at 4810

Prices Hiked
At Least 1c
On Gasoline

Washington area motorists
we're paying at least a cent
more per gallon for gasoline
today following a price increase
by dealers here.
The prices were raised after
three major oil companies an
nounced discontinuance of dis
count allowances to gasoline
dealers in an attempt to halt
competitive price-cutting.
According to Horace Walker,
spokesman for the Retail Gas
oline Dealers Association here,
the price increase at some sta
tions will be as much as 1.9
cents a gallon.
Withdrawal of the discount
allowances was made by Hum
BILE, American and Socony-
Mobil oil companies. The move
affects all States from Maine
to Florida except New York and
New Jersey.
A spokesman for American
said yesterday that the action
was taken to try to stabilize
the retail price. During recent
weeks prices have been de-
pressed throughout most of the
area due to a rash of competi-
tive price slashing," the spokes-
man said. "The upward move
is an effort to restore near
normal prices"
One ESQ dealer here said he
has raised the price of ESQ
regular gasoline from 28.9 cents
a gallon to 29.9 cents. Other
retailers were expected to do
the same.
Meanwhile, an investigation
by the Antitrust Division of
the Justice Department was to
get started in Providence, R. l.,
which could result in an investi-
cation of the price hike along
the entire East Coast.
Senator Pastore, Democrat of
Rhode Island, said the inveSti-
cation will determine if any
Federal laws are being violated.
He called the increase drastic. "
In the Providence area the in
crease may be as high as 4.3
cents a gallon.
