An association of Jewish petroleum dealers to combat a trusl recently created was formed here.
The association. came into existence because of the necessity of protecting the Jewish traders from being forced out of their economic position. The trust refused to sell the traders petroleum products in such towns where it had its own depots. The association has a combined capital of $500.000 and counts on financial support both in and outside the country.
