Inquiry Aims to Probe Oil Price Increases and Market Ties
A Senate resolution, introduced by Democrat Tramaotell, calls the Federal Trade Commission to examine gasoline and related price boosts. It asks whether prices were arbitrarily set, and if agreements or ownership conditions restrict competition. Senator King supports a probe. Senator Harrold opposes, arguing price declines already justify no inquiry.
