Nixon aid sought on behalf of independent gas dealers
A group of senators urged President Nixon to force refiners to allocate gasoline to all former customers to protect 40,000 independent stations from going out of business amid shortages. The letter, signed by 14 senators, argues independents keep prices in check and prevent market domination by a few major oil firms. The effort follows an amendment empowering the White House to require allocations among customers, amid mounting concern over gasoline shortages and station closures in the Midwest and Michigan.
