An Outstanding Service « The development of the Cracking Process by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is one of the outstanding achievements in the progress of the petroleum industry. / The history of cracking, as a commercial development, is written large in the annals of this organization. It is impossible to calculate the good which—directly or indirectly—has come from the development of this scientific process for increasing the world’s supply of gasoline. Without it the great automotive industry, which has influenced to so striking a degree the every-dav life of the people of this country, never could have attained its present gigantic proportions. In 1913, American refineries produced about I*ooo 000,000 gallons of gasoline, which constituted about 12'/2% of the crude oil run in refinery stills. In 1923, American refineries produced about 7 500 000,000 gallons of gasoline, which constituted about 30% of the crude oil run in refinery stills A substantial part of this increase was made possible by the Cracking Process. The Burton Process, developed in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), is acknowledged to be the first commercial process available and, while others have developed processes to achieve similar results, the greater part of the gasoline made by the Cracking Process comes from Burton stills. While developing the Burton process, for increasing the production of gasoline from a Sen quantity of crude oil, is an outstanding service; it i» but one of the many services rendrred bv the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) m keep the supply of gasoline sufficient to meet the demands of the motoring public. v Standard Oil Company W (Indiana) ... * General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So.
