A decision will be taken following talks now under Way with inter provincial pipe line ltd., owner of the main Oil pipe transportation system Between Edmonton and the Eastern markets. I expect we will pick it Gillespie said of the higher Tariff. A decision by the National Energy Board earlier this week boosted the rate for moving Oil from Edmonton to Montreal to 50.4 cents a barrel from 43.5 cents. But it also increased the spread Between the Cost of moving Oil to Montreal and Toronto to 16.8 cents from 15 cents. The Federal government new provides a subsidy to grapes shrink nearly five pounds of grapes Are required to make a Pound of raisins says National geographic. Pay the 15-cent-a-barrel Dif Ference lowering the Cost of the Montreal Oil to the same level As that in Toronto. Subsidy payments started with the opening of the pipe line Extension into Montreal two years ago As a Way to make Domestic Oil competitive with crude imported from world markets. A separate subsidy pro Gram to lower the Price of imported Oil to Domestic Levels currently about a barrel is based on the Toron to Oil Price. Without the pipeline sub Sidy the government says the Cost of Domestic Oil in Montreal would have been above the imported Price making it unattractive to refineries. Gillespie said the pipeline Tariff changes which go into effect july 1, will cause Al most negligible changes in consumer pricing. Depending on the area the new rates add five to seven cents a barrel on transportation costs at worst two tenths of a cent on a gallon of gasoline or Home heating fuel.
