Oil Strike Sends Shock Waves Globally Across Markets
The CIO treasurer doubted Washington talks would yield progress on settling the strike as PAD ordered fuel conservation in 32 states plus D C. The action requires service stations and bulk plants to hold 3000 gallons or 5 percent of capacity, whichever is smaller. The strike halts about one third of net petroleum output, affects high octane aviation gasoline, and forces military and airline cutbacks. Knight warned the stalemate may become critical and noted threats of reprisals over wage talks.
