Subsidies Seen Ensuring Adequate Oil Supply
Washington reports that Senator George of Georgia said oil companies expect government subsidies to cover transportation costs, securing petroleum flow to the East and avoiding gasoline rationing. A 1.5 cent per gallon war tax to fund subsidies was proposed, with Defense Supplies Corporation aiding East Coast distribution. A 2 cent price rise already allowed in 17 states could be rolled back. A senior official cautioned results may be limited. More than 3,000 British canteens are operating or planned.

The move signals strong disapproval of Finland under Axis pressure amid wartime alignments.
