H. Durrence, one of the leading gasoline dealers, it was announced yesterday. Wilmer R.

In this section, meetings have been held in Atlanta, Knox ville, Tampa and Miami. A meeting will be held at the Hotel Colonial, Co lumbia, S. C., Tuesday night. At the meeting in Miami, last Fri day, Mr. Schuh said, “This industry has found that it needs a code since the NRA was invalidated by the U. S. supreme court). There were many who were dissatisfied with the NRA code and were glad to see it end, but they have found that the industry and labor have suffered because there has been no policy for the industry. Many service stations are on the verge of going broke and have had to curtail their expenses to meet the conditions imposed by a few chislers who »:ek to obtain an advantage by price jutting. If it goes on without being checked, it will result in the loss of their business to many re tailers and a reduction in employment to service station employes. “Uneconomic conditions in any large industry hurts everyone, those in the industry and those who are its customers. Anything that obstructs economy increases the cosU of doing business which the consumer must pay. It is in the interests of all, con sumers, labor and petroleum mar keters, that the voluntary code for mulated for the mid West be accepted in the East and South, sc that this market can be stabilised at an eco nomic figure and employment as sured.” The meeting will be open to all in the pctroluem industry, according to Mr. Durrence, ant a good attendmce is expected from Savannah and the surrounding territory.
