Two Cent Cut in Gas
Price Saves Autoist $7; Farmers Gain Most (United Press Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. The own
er of each individual automobile in the United StateB saved $7 a year as a result of a two cent cut in gas prices. This is the deduction made by the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce on the basis of figures of consumption supplied by the Bureau of Mines. The average vehicle consumes about 350 gallons on lowest estimates of the bureau. Some run as high as 450. But the average is around 350 and figured on this basis the individual saving on a two cent cut would run $7 to the individual. , Collectively, the American motoring public mads a saving of $73,500,000 on a two cent cut There are more than ten million persons enjoying the pleasure of automobiles now, according to the bureau. The farmers feel the greatest benefit of a cut since they own not only one-third of the motor cars in the nation, but also operate 2,000,000 gasoline consuming stationary engines.
