15.(5% of the total. Other authorities bring ' / ® this expense down to as low as 10% of
the total.
While gasoline is a major factor in the operation of a car, the expense, when compared to the whole, is of minor importance. We beliew that this is due in large measure to the advanced work of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) who, by Increasing the yield of gasoline from the crude oil available, has kept the price of this product within the reach of all. Without the processes originated and developed by this Company, the price of gasoline would be much higher than it is
at present.
Without the distritution system maintained today by the petroleum industry, initiated and expanded by this Company, touring would be impractical. It is due in large neasure to the initiative, skill and resource ulness of tine Standard Oil Company (Indana), that motoring has been taken out o f the sphere of the “nenman’s sport” aid that it has been made possible for the man of modest means to take his famih and get out into the fresh air and sunshne. It is the inspiration of such achievements that spurs tie 27,000 men and women ot the Standa'd Oil Company (Indiana) on to greater accomplishments, which will add to the pleasure of living for the thirty million people of the Middle West.
