Gasoline stocks near 1973 lows amid potential summer shortages
U S gasoline stocks slide to 199.8 million barrels the lowest since the summer of 1973, with crude at 283 million barrels and ample world supply.

Senior editor Harry Hugo cautions motorists that prices may rise after the July 4 weekend.
