Supply and services minister Jean Pierre Goyer has been criticized strongly by the opposition in the commons for purchasing the five million Gal Lons of romanian Oil at such a High Price. The minister acting after a Cabinet decision to Purchase heating Oil at almost any Price bought 26 million Gallons.

Gocr was questioned by John Diefenbaker Albert thursday Over whether the government has received offers of 15 cents a gallon for Oil.
