“If you look at the oil industry without bias/* says W. C. Platt in the National Petroleum News of April 29, 1925, “ I believe you will find that it has been a typical American industry, with much competition and great freedom of competition in the last twelve or fifteen years.” Mr. Platt cites the case of Ohio—which is very similar to that of several Middle West states served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). In 1912, Ohio had 63,000 automobiles. In 1924, it had 1,244,000 automobiles—or about 1900% increase. To serve this vastly increased business has been a task of such herculean proportions that the oil companies then in business could not increase their facilities fast enough to keep up with the demand. As the need of petroleum products increased, competition increased—not only to provide the additional service required but in order that society might function efficiently and smoothly. An industry grows in response to the demand of consumers for more products and more efficient service. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has grown in response to the demands of the public. It has grown in the face of keen, persistent, aggressive competition and holds its leadership solely through rendering a consistently superior service. In ten Middle Western states in which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) operates, there are some 3489 competitive oil companies. In all of its dealings with competitors, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) employs the same principles—fairness and justice which it insists are the rights of its employes and stockholders. To its customers it gives thoughtful service, superior products and the utmost of value for the money they spend. It is by following these sound practices that the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has grown from an organization of moderate proportions to be one of America’s foremost institutions —in size, scope and service.
