This statement is based on a number of important “ifs”, but all indicators are positive. Those “ifs” in clude: if the current low demand continues, if the Arab embargo is not put on again, and if Arab oil production goes to pre- October levels or higher. But any apprehensions are reduced by the generally favorable position in which the U. S. finds itself as we approach the period when petroleum demands are usually the greatest. The mild winter, in addition to conservation efforts, has allowed refineries to produce more gasoline instead of fuel oil. Also, we were able to import large quantities of non-Arab gasoline because even though the Arabs had cut off supplies to the U. S., they were exporting near normal quantities of oil to practically everyone else leaving other world markets with fuel available to seell us. ★ STRESS The lifting of the embargo came at a critical point. Estimates showed that even with conservation, refinery production changes and other imports, major shortages would have oc curred this summer without Arab oil coming into our ports. Now the estimates show that the shortages will run in the vicinity of 5 per cent and that is a manageable figure. Here on the East Coast where much of the imported oil gets processed and used, particularly Middle East imports, the end of the embargo will have the most beneficial effect. There is some talk that higher prices will result, but several other Congressmen have joined me in demanding that any price increases be spread evenly throughout the Nation. There is no reason why those of us in the East should carry the whole burden of gasoline price hikes. Nationwide, the prediction is that gasoline supplies will remain tight but not critically short. Priority users such as the military, farmers, emergency ser vices and public tran sportation are expected to consume about 5 percent of the supply, and as their needs fluctuate up and down, some periodic tightness for non-priority customers may result. But this situation should never become critical - as it did at the end of February - provided that there are not sharp increases in gasoline demand. With continued public cooperation through the summer months, gas needs can probably be met without drawing heavily on reserve stocks. Then in the fall, refineries can switch to Save Your Toes The whirling knife-edged blade of a rotary lawn mower is dangerous, warns the Extension Service Farm and Home Safety Committee at The Pennsylvania State University.
