Energy crisis topic of marketers meet in Dallas

They urged restricting out of state shipments relaxing price controls forming buying groups and urging conservation. Delegates noted gasoline allocations already fell up to 12 percent and rural areas would suffer most while leadership vowed to seek equal distribution and support for oil well drilling and price incentives.
