Our Gallon is
Bigger Than a
U. J. 8. Gallon

When the motorist anywhere dn Brt-
tish Columbia buys a gatlon.of gaso-
line, the refiner and marketer. receives
at best, only slightly more-than 15¢-for
it.*. In Vancouver, cloze to the refiner-
ies, the wholesale price is 16¢ a gallon
and the retail price is 20c. But. to
this, of course, must be added the ‘ce
a gallon road tax levied by the ‘provin-
cial government, observes a bulletin
issued by Petroleum Industries of Brit-
ish Columbia.

Outside of Vancouver the price is
higher, according to local conditions,
one of the most important of which is
freight and storage. The retail mar-
gin, which is ngt set by the: oil com-
panies, covera ¢ multitude of services |
which aré of great value to the motor-
ist. ‘The gasoline retailer in the small-
er cities of British Columbia, with rare
exceptions, are operating thelr own
businesses. :

It is inter sting to note, the bulletin
adds, that Canada, where the im-
perlal gation ie, .the,standard measure-
ment, the motorist ives 20 per. cent
more for his gation | nin the United
States, where the wihe measure ‘of Hq:
uids, is standard. a

In British Columbla, it is learned;
the Canadian. gallon, one-fifth, or 20
per cent larger than that of the United
States,.crentes' a fairly common mis-
understanding os to relative prices of
gasoline on the Canadian side and on
the American side.of the internationa)
