“Don't you big oil !
companies get
together to set prices?”
The question of gasoline price affects every
motorist: Standard Oil Company of California re
ceives some letters along these lines: “'When I drive
downtown, the prices of all the major gasolines seem
to be about the same. I’ve heard it said that the major
oil companies get together to set prices. Isn’t this true?”
The answer is an unqualified NO. Oil com- '
panics do not get together to set prices, nor do we
in any way set prices hv agreement. But we do
think it’s in order to tell you about gasoline prices
and how they’re arrived at:
When you shop you find not
only gas hut many products of
the same kind and about the
same quality priced about
- alike. I'rices just naturally
" tend to even up. Here’s why —
■w
Suppose* a gas dealer were forced to
■si*11 ai 2e a gallon more than his neigh
bors. Business would soon pass him by.
Or suppose he had to sell for 2c a gallon
less, still giving full quality and service.
As his competitors cut price to hold cus
tomer ■, his income falls. In time he
would go broke.
jr PRICE
mmsmsosm»
These imaginary exam
ples of set-price policy
show what any gas seller is
actually up against. He
must sell for enough to
cover his costs and make a
living, yet if he charges too
much he’ll drive business
away. It’s as simple as that.
J‘
We "set prices” only at sta
tion' Wt- uwn and operate.—
Standard Station , Inc. Ex
perience shows what to charge
to cover cost of product and
service, yet sell in competit ion.
.•Jr. 'itr i
At Chevron Gas Stations the oper
ators are completely independent. They
make up their own minds about price.
You occasionally see a range of gasoline
prices for the same or different brands
in a single area, unt il competition finally
forces the pri< vs of similar products and
services back to a common level.
The result: not ter products
at low < ost, the benefit you
always got when tree com
petition is allowed to work.
Note this: aside from taxes,
and in spite of inflation,
gasoline today costs about
what it did in 1919, yet two
gallons now do the work
that required three then.
I’cl Like to Know . . . Many people write to Standard asking
pertinent questions about the Company. We answer all letters individually,
but some points seem of general interest. We take this way of discussing
them for everyone. If you have a question, we urge you to write in care of:

Folding Up For
Salmon Derby
Juneau was a quiet town today
as many citizens packed their fish
ing gear to enter the first day cl
the Golden North Salmon Derby
There was an epidemic of ‘one
day leaves” from many Federal and,
Territorial offices.
some businessmen put up "Gone
Fishin’ ” signs to join the migration
,o Tee Harbor and Auk? Bay from
where they put out in floating crjf.
to catch “the big one.”
The Coast Guard had its 83-foo.
patrol boat in the Gastineau Chan
nel fishing area to enforce speed
iimits and to be on hand as a safe
ty measure. This morning the cut
er reported that one engine wat
Hit and arrangements were made
for it to return to Juneau tonight
for repairs.
Good weather ordered by Derby
co-chairmen. Dr. D. D. Marquardt
and Curtis Shattuck, arrived ahead
of time early in the week and was
wearing thin today with increas
ing cloudiness and a promise of
shower.:.
Visitors Arrive
Among those here for the event
from Skagway are Louis and George
Rapuzzi and Malcolm Moe. High
way Patrolman and Mrs. A1 Lub
ckc from Haine; have also come to
participate.
Due to large numbers who failed
to get Derby tickets, it will be nec
essary to sell tickets for the next
two days at the Tee Harbor and
Auke Bay checking stations, Derby
chairmen announced.
M. P. Mullaney, Territorial Com
missioner of Taxation, said today
that an enforcement c.ff'.ccr from
the Department would be on the
fishing grounds to cheek fishermen
for possession of the new sport
! fishing license.
| Licenses can be obtained at the
Taxation department in the Simp
| son building until noon tomorrow.
Madsen's Fishing Supply and Jun
eau Young Hardware also arc sell
ing them. Arrangements have been
i made to have application forms at
| the judges' stations. Licenses cost
1 SI for residents, plus 25 cents if
purchased other than at the tax
i 1
I ation office.
Derby rules provide that fish en
i tcred in the contest must be "legal
ly caught.” This will pose a ques
tion if prize winning sclmcn are
entered by persons without a lic
ense, derby officials pointed out.
i A flurry of derby ticket sales was
, reported yesterday by Juneau
Young, Thomas Hardware anti
Madsen’s bringing the total to
around 1,000. Juneau-Young and
J Thomas Hardware will be closed to
j morrow but Madsen’s is remaining

All Clues Checked
Reported clues of the missing
plane so far have failed to bear
any connection. They have ranged
from floating seaweed to discarded
shoes. Each shred of evidence that
might lend a possible lead is care
fully examined according to Col
onel Waltcn. "We never discoun
a clue until it is thoroughly cheek
ed,” he said.
The Colonel and his men are
working long hours under the stren
uous conditions of the search. He
praised his plane crews for the
‘maximum effort” and maintenance
men for their efficiency and speed
in servicing the aircraft and con-'
ducting routine inspections.
In the first five days of the op
eration, search planes covered more
than 35,000 square miles of land and
water, logging over 700 flying hours.
New Harbor Rates
Are Postponed
Until Nov. 1
i
After a lengthy discussion last
night the Juneau City Council
passed an ordinance on operation
of the small boat harbor on final
reading. Immediately following, a
resolution was passed to delay the
effective date until Nov. 1.
It was brought out the ordin
ance was needed for enforcement
of safety and sanitation regula
tions.
Andy Barlow,, executive secre
tary of the I'nitod Trailers of Al
aska (CTO) protested against the
5-ceni per foot per month overall
rate for unreserved space. He said
that from 100 to 500 boats used
the harbor during the winter and
he felt that the boat owners had |
a light to a healing before tin;1
rates went into effect.
Bailow pointed out that fisher-;
men paid a gas tax. Councilmen I
countered they believed most fish
ermen would not object.
I.argc Investment
It was pointed out that the city
had invested approximately $10,
000 in electrical equipment lor
wiring of the harbor so boat own- I
ers could have that convenience, j
The city also provides garbage
disposal from the area, pays a
harbormaster, and last winter pro
vided a night watchman. ^
A check of maintenance costs
of the small boat harbors shows
an average of around $10,000
yearly, except 1349 when costs ran
almost 8)10,000. /
Barlow attributed the new ap
proach to the harbor due partly
to the efforts of the fishermen.
The money was furnished by the
Territory from gas tax funds rn.d
the city put the job out on bid
after buying the materials.
A request by the Alaska Nation
al Guard to moor a 40 by 62-foot
hangar structure adjacent to the
new proposed Alaska Department
ofr Aviation hangar was referred
to the harbor committee. The
committee is to meet with officials
of the National Guard to decide
on details. A report is to be given
at the council meeting next
Thursday.
Truck Route
A letter from J. G. Shspard was
read in which he protested the
Carson Construction Co. using
Main Street between Third and
Fourth Streets as a lumber yard.
Shepard also suggested a routing
for heavy trucks be worked out

City Clerk C. L. Popejoy repor
ted that Harry E. Lindegard of
Auke Bay had refused to pay the
$15 license fee • on school busses.
The Council decreed that he be
required to pay the fee.
This led to discus ion that other
tus operators, with the single ex
ception of E. M. Spence of the
Juneau Tran-it System, were ail
delinquent. This was referred to
the police committee.
Mayor Waino Hendrickson wa.
directed to contact the Veteran's
Administration regarding the pro
cedure when the city ambulance
was used to take a veteran to the
hospital. This action arose out of
the VA's refusal to pay $7.50 for
taking Axel Iverson to St. Ann's
Hospital on June 10.
