Adherence to the law of supply and démand in connection with gasoline prices is advocated. The report attributes the ‘‘present price-cutting to the fact that some companies have been forced to unload gasoline stocks with resultant com- petition * in prices by other com- panies.” Lowér in Kentucky. Louisville, Ky., Aug. 17.—Ken- tucky motorists were to profit further today as a result of the gasoline price wwar” as a reduction of one cent a gallon having been announced for the state by the Standard Oil Co. of Ken- tucky. In making the announcement last night W. G. Violette, vice-presi- dent of the company, said the reduc- tion would amount to two cents in thiree or four points. Officials of inde- pendent companies here indicated the reduction of the Standard would be met. This reduction, the second one cent cut this week, bronght the filling sta- tion price here to 21 cents, including a one cent state tax. Florida, Mississ- ippl, Alabama and Georgia, other states in the territory of the Standard 0il Co. of Kentucky, were not affected by the cut today, as in the instance of the first reduction.
