"What," asked a customer recently, "has caused the sharp advance in the price of gasoline?" And our answer was substantially as follows: The advances In the selling price of gasoline which have occurred since January 1st, were due primarily to the increased cost of crude oil. The market on all grades of crude took an upward trend during the latter part of 1919, and has been climbing steadily since that time. During 1919 gasoline prices remained stationary, the refiners absorbing the increased cost of crude as long as it was possible to do so. In January, 1920, gasoline prices generally were advanced to meet the increasing cost of raw material Another factor was the practical exhaustion of gasoline reserves brought about by the unprecedented demands for this fuel. During the first months of this year the consumption of gasoline greatly exceeded production. But the primary reason was the constantly increasing price of crude oil. Still other reasons for the mounting prices are the greatly increased cost of labor, of steel, and of other items used in manufacture; also the constantly advancing cost of marketing and distribution. Everything that goes into the refining of petroleum is very expensive today. But the primary and controlling reason is found in the increasing cost of crude. In keeping with its well-known policy, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been able to maintain low prices for gasoline in the face of advancing prices for crude oil because of its large scale operation in refining, and its complete and economical system of distribution. And, also, because of its advanced facilities for obtaining a maximum quantity of gasoline from a given quantity of crude. The Middle West depends largely upon gasoline power for producing food stuffs. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is straining every fibre of its highly specialized organization to meet this demand.
