To a very limited extent It provides for price fixing for gasoline. Standard Oil of Indiana did not wait for the effective date of the code, but put all Its refineries on code schedules of hours and wages. The part-tim- e system was abandoned, resulting In a 13 per cent Increase In the total wage payment and a corresponding Increase In the purchasing power of the refinery employees as a group. Base rates of pay In the various refineries were established as prescribed by the code as follows: Whiting, Ind., 52 cents an hour; Wood River, HI.. 52 cents; Sugar Creek, Mo., 48 cents; Neodosha. Kan.. 48 cents ; Casper, Wyo., ,r0 cents. These rates are for common labor. Proportionate adjustments were made In rates for skilled labor.
