~• r ■ v-<’ : - Holding Gasoline Prices Down ■■■■■■■■■■■■ “The Federal Trade Commission in report to Congress ascribes strong demand as primary cause of recent advances in price, $ of gasoline and other petroleum product ratner than to any combination in re- . straint of trade.” (Boston News Bureau, June 3rd, 1920.) Gasoline prices will go down as soon as gasoline supply exceeds demand. Only two. wAys are known to increase gasoline supply. First, increase the production of crude petroleum; second, to increase the yield of gasoline from the crude petroleum obtainable. Recognizing the latter as the more practical method, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has discovered, through extensive research, a way to definitely increase the yield of gasoline from crude oil. In its laboratories, modem to the last detail of equipment, chemists, engineers ' and experienced refiners are working continually to this end. It was one of these men who discovered - the process which has largely increased the yield of gasoline obtainable from the crude. This, and other discoveries, together with t the economies of efficiency throughout all processes of refining, have enabled the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to exdrt a marked downward pressure on gasoline prices. . . The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) strives at all times to deal in fairness to all the people within its territory, and today is operating its business on as small a margin of profit as is consistent with sound financing, and with safety for its 4799 stockholders, of whom no single investor owns as much as 10 per cent of the total stock.

Weaving, for Disabled Men.

It is reported from Great Britain that various textile manufacturers and the General Union of Textile Workers ha’e put forward for consideration a scheme whereby unemployed disabled ex-service men will be trained in weaving. It is proposed that during the , first ten weeks of training each man should receive £2 from the government and £1 from the employer; during the subsequent four weeks £8 from > the employer or such higher amount as the worker may be able to earn. It Is believed that ten weeks would be sufficient to make the men efficient— Scientific American.
