There's a threat from Secre-
tary at the Interior Ickes that
Uu* namcuoua on gasoline con-
sumption will be extended from
the east coast, possibly to In-
clude all sections of the country.
Thai would upset our own satis-
faction that, for once, we had
gained a distinct advantage by
reason of pur oroximity to the
producing fields While there is
some dispute about some of the
details of the oil situation, it is
generally agreed that there is
no actual shortage of supply but
that the crisis in the east orig-
inated in a lack of transporta-
tion since coastwise traffic was
disrupted by the war Some in-
dicate that a shortage in re-
finery capacity may develop if
the export continues at the pres-
ent rate, but that is disputed In
other quarters People in the
east were not inclined to take
the gas rationing seriously but
there was immediate complaint
at the prospect of higher prices
because of freight rates and ad-
vanced dealer prices because of
a reduction in business As the
restrictions are enforced and as
they are tightened up. the com-
plaint will become more general.
Already there is talk of gaso-
line bootlegging We here in the
greatest oil producing state do
not object to any reasonable re-
strictions in tile cause of na-
tional defense, but under any
other conditions we hope to take
advantage of any benefits from
nearness to production"

UTAH REFERENDUM
The Utah constitution has a provision that 10 per
cent of the voters can petition to have a State law
be set aside until a referendum is held Recently
this power of the Utah citizens was used for the
first time when 67 000 citizens or 27 per cent of
those who voted in the last election, signed petitions
setting aside the operation of that States newly
effective anti-chain store law This law much more
drastic than the one in effect in Texas, would have |
made it practically Impossible for chain stores to
