Ickes Recommends Tankers Shift to Gulf Coast Route
Defense Oil Coordinator Harold L. Ickes urged three tankers used to ship gasoline from California to the East Coast be reassigned to the Gulf Coast Atlantic Seaboard route. The move would lift capacity by about 9 million barrels annually on the shorter run, though East Coast supply shortfalls persist amid a wartime tanker shortage and transfers to Great Britain. The shift, agreed to by Sun Oil and Standard Oil of California, reflects a national defense measure with costs to the companies acknowledged by Ickes.
