Commerce in the Air Arthur Brisbane, in the Chicago Herald and Examiner of May 18, says, “Standard Oil of Indiana announced yesterday the purchase from I lenrv and Edsel Ford of a huge, all-metal, three-engine monoplane ‘to provide safe, fast and comfortable trips’ for its officials to outlying oil regions. "The time of a good oil man is worth more than the price of several airplanes. “Perhaps Standard Oil will contribute to American flying on its own account, and build that 'real flying machine’ which Henry Ford suggests.” 1 1 The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been, and is, contributing to American flying in the interest of the people whom it serves by the development of special gasoline and lubricating oil for aviation use and by its program of marking air trails. This company is interested in commercial aviation. it lias proved in its own business that the air is an extraordinarily satisfactory medium of communication. The Air Mail has been a tremendous asset to the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), increasing the efficiency of the organization. Other business concerns and individuals throughout the United States have appreciated this speedier mail communication it makes possible, as the record for 1926 testifies. A total of 17,345,960 letters were carried by airplane during the year. This Company's investment in a giant monoplane is further evidence that the Company is deeply interested in commercial aviation. The new all-metal monoplane, named the Stanolind, can accommodate eight passengers, has a wing span of 71 feet, and is propelled by three motors. It uses 46 gallons of gasoline an hour and carries fuel for a sustained flight of five hours. The Stanolind was purchased to provide safe, fast and comfortable transportation to oil producing regions, division headquarters and outlying refineries. • The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is always on the alert for new ways and better methods of increasing efficiency. The purchase of the new monoplane is in line witli its progressive business policy. Standard Oil Company ( Indiana) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So. Michigan Avenue, Chicago 4589
