A large portion of this 21% was produced by the Burton Process, developed in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). While the production of crude oil during the past ten years has trebled, the demand for gasoline has far outstripped the increased production. “The real factor in holding down the price of gasoline”, says the Oil and Gas Journal, “has been the refiners who produced 6 times as much gasoline, from 3 times as much crude. In accomplishing this result, the biggest single factor has been the use of cracking plants — and in the future, cracking will be an increasingly important factor , as the most direct and immediate means of holding down the price of gasoline. ” Since so much of the gasoline produced by cracking in the United States, is cracked by the Burton Process, it is obvious that the service rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is great. Until 1913, when the first patent for the Burton Process was granted, “cracking was a lost art; an idea that had never been worked out from a chemical standpoint—that had never been developed from an apparatus standpoint—that had never been utilized from an industrial standpoint.’’ Os the cracked gasoline in the United States produced by other processes than the Burton, it is worth noting that none of these cracking processes had developed to the point of producing cracked gasoline in appreciable quantities before 1920, or even 1922. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has always led the oil industry in progressive development — in economy of operation —in conservation of oil —and in continually lowered cost of refining. The result of these aggressive and constructive services is the essentially low price which motorists pay for gasoline. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is a real conservationist. It originated those processes which get more gasoline from less oil and hence keep consumers supplied at lower cost. Every operation of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is based upon a deep regard for public welfare — upon the desire to render maximum service to the com- .
