Nebraska Gas Prices Rise 16.9 Cents in 34 Months
The AAA Cornhusker Motor Club reports regular gas in Nebraska up 16.9 cents over 34 months, with self-serve averages at 59 cents per gallon in late May, up from 42.1 cents in August 1973. Spokesman Bare Wade says true cost increase to consumers is 57 percent after excluding unchanged state and federal taxes. He notes two price jump intervals, 1973–74 and 1975, and warns prices could reach 62 to 65 cents by summer end as demand peaks. The Osceola Garden Club hosted 11 Polk Garden Club members at City Hall on June 8 for a Bicentennial themed program with a buffet, decorations, and slides from Hawaii and Pella Ia tulip festival. Next meeting set for July 13 at Maude Magnuson’s.
