The Management of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) believes in humanity for man to man, and practices it. An example of the practical application of this principle is found in the report of the Employees StockPurchasing Plan just made public. Five years ago the Management offered all employees an opportunity to purchase shares of the Company’s stock on a deferred-payment plan. The individual employee was privileged to subscribe for stock up to 20 per cent of his annual wage. For every dollar subscribed the Company agreed to add 50c. Subscriptions were voluntary. The significant result is that 15,000 employees purchased stock in the Company by this method, and their holdings under this plan aggregate 390,000 shares. This number of shares represents an accumulation in five years of approximately $25,000,000, or 4.2 per cent of all the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) shares outstanding. By their voluntary action, the employees, collectively, have made themselves the second largest influence among the 50,000 stockholders, not one of whom owns as much as 5!4 percent of the total stock issued. Such an encouraging response justifies the faith of the Management in the loyalty of the 28,059 men and women making up this splendid organization. It is tangible evidence of the unusual spirit of harmony and friendliness which prevails throughout this great group of men and women, who are bound together by an ambition bigger than themselves —the ambition to serve mankind —and who work with a united effort. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has proved by the actual working out of its principles that humanity in big business is practical. It is gratifying, indeed, to the Management to have more than one half of the employees realize that only by helping and serving one another can man attain happiness and success. No doubt, there are some people who think of the j huge organization of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) as a machine. It is truer to think of irt as a group of human beings acting together vh splendid cooperation. The thousands of shareholders, the Management, the employees all f/tg people like yourself, with a joy in their an eager love of life. f I' The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) believe?* that the eternal foundation of all greatness is h uman sympathy, based on understanding and high integrity. i The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) practices the humanity it preaches, believing that in sudi principles lies better service to the thirty million people of the Middle West, whom it earnestly >ries to serve in such a manner as to gain their coftdence, respect, and esteem.
