Rail Writ Denied as Stations Ordered Reserve Gasoline
Federal order requires large service stations and depots in eight states including Iowa to reserve five percent of gasoline for emergencies such as fire, police, and ambulances. Bruce K Brown, deputy administrator of the Petroleum Administration for Defense, announced the move after a Truman era seizure and a decline in petroleum output. The order aims to ensure public safety vehicles have fuel, though motorists are unlikely to notice changes. Separately, engineers and conductors sought a stay on a no strike injunction as unions press their steel seizure legality case.
