Note To The Contrary (Agricultural Statistics, 1938, P. 116) Notwithstanding. The B.A.E. Error Probably Arose Because Of The Manner In Which Prices Of Crude And Refined Oil Are Quoted Near Each Other. Refined Oil Was Sold In Tanks At Times And In Barrels At Other Times; B) The Oil, Paint, And Drug Reporter Has Used Slightly Different Wording In Describing The Market At Different Times, But Actually No Change In Market Quoted Has Taken Place.
