With Main Pipe Line Completed
the Freight Saving Alone Will
.. Be Close to $2.7OO Daily. ~

Barring the great profit to be made in the
refining of crude oil, however, over the main
trunk pipe line and river barges alone, when
completed, there will be an actual saving over
freight rates of nearly $1.o0' per barrel, or
close to $2,70o daily. Give the Uncle Sam
credit for even one-half of what it has in
sight and you will have to admit that we offer
the public square deal of investment,
