LO®8 ANGELES, Aug. 3, 1920,—Tt is an estab lished fact that the United Btates now con- sumes 436,000,000 barrels of crude ofl a year, while only 402,000,000 barrels are produced This leaves a national shortage of nearly 34,- 000,000 barrels There are more than 7,500,000 automobiles and motor trucks in the United States, as compared with 700,000 in 1911 For your information the consumption of California off is estimated at 110,000,000 barrels for this year, while only approximately 100,000 000 barrels will be produced. This leaves an actual shortage of at least 10,000,000 barreis. oe 8 In the year 1919 the total production of gaso- line in the State of California was approxi- mately 300,000,000 gallons. ‘The production for the year 1920 is estimated af 400,000,000 gallons. The estimated consumption of the Pacific Coast states for the year 1920 is estimated at approxi- mately 650,000,000 gallons, leaving @ shortage of approximately 150,000,000 gallons. In view of these facts the Union Of! Company of California closed its export offices early in the year and has been making every’ possible effort to meet the oil, gasoline and distillate shortages. At the same time we have attempted to re- tain on the Pacific Coast the present low gaso- line prices, which are lower than at any other point in the entire world, But it has been ab solutely impossible to” supply the gasoline re quired at the present low prices. Automobiles have been strictly rationed even through the producing sections of California, oe ee . Recently representatives of the various mar keting companies, civic bodies and essential in, dustries were called before the Board of Public Utilities of Los Angeles for the purpose of con- sidering the present gasoline situation and de termining how best to handle it. At this con- ference wo stated that we could help to relieve the situation by importing gasoline, or could continue to sell only what was possible for us to produce in this sjate. to insure good Years of the Pacific Coast.

Gasoline purchased in the mid-continent field costs us 24%c per galion f. o. b. shipping point, to which must be added 6.43 cents per gallon for freight. The total delivered price is 30.68 cents per gallon. In «addition thereto we must stand the shrinkage in. transit and the extra cost of storage and distribution. Fer this reason we find it necessary to tn- crease the price of gasoline under our existing schedules throughout the Pacific Coast. You will note that we are not charging the entire cost of the importation against the gasoline im- ported, but are spreading the load on as equit- able a basis as is humanly possible. oe 8 e Therefore, effective Wednesday morning, August 4th, the price-of our gasoline to the con- sumer at basic distributing points will be as follows: Seattle ...-----. =. 280 Portland .....---.29¢ —{including state San Francisco .....27¢ road tax) Sacramento Fresno San Diego .....-..27%o It would be absolutely impossible for the Union Oi! Company of California to carry the load of the purchase and transportation of this imported gasoline without this increase in price, oe 8 e@ It is only fair'that the public should know that the Union Oil Company of California is manufacturing and will continue to manufac ture all the gasoline possible from its available supplies ‘of refining crude oils, and that it is not exporting any gasoline from the Pacific Coast. The Board of Public Utilities of the city of Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Chamber of Com- merce and the Chamber of Mines and Oils of California have made a thorough and impartial investigation of the present shortage of petro- leum products and the underlying causes there. of, and their findings are available to all who seek further information, TI believe ft necessary that you have the in- formation immediately and at first hand so that the situation may be thoroughly understood, It is for this reason that I am wiring you direct.
