Jeweler and Optician -Issuer of Marriage Lieenses - GASOLINE SHORTAGE Believed Probable in Canada Before End of Year. Windsor, June 29. - Although at the• present time the gasoline supply • throughout western Ontario, and par- ticularly west of London, is sufficient to meet ordinary' demands, garage men and oil dealers agree that before the year is out a real shortage will be ex- perienced. Tank cars which have been convey- ing to all parts of the country, and a majority of which .ate owned by Amer- ican railroads, are beim; rapidly called • in by the United -States railroad admin- tstration, as they are needed to carry fuel to the seaboard, and this will mean that. many interior points far from the e,.. main arteries of railroad travel will be left without facilities for obtaining gasoline. It will not be 'a shortage of gaso- line itself, but of means of transporting it," said one big garage man here to- day. "Even if we had more storage tanks than we have all"ready. 1.doubt if we could get then filled up, as at pres- ent we are only receiving enough gas 4o keep us going," Prices in Windsor for best quality gasoline remain at 35 cents a gal - :fon, while further east the cost gradually rises. At.,Ridgetown, 80 miles east of Windsor, the price of e• gas is 3S cents, and at London, 140 Julies away, it sells at, 40 cents.
