Of It's subsidiary corporations. One Of
tho reasons why the trust has main
tained the monopoly it has enjoyed Is
that capital has been afraid 70 enter into
competition with It, In fact, Wo think
there arc very few men of large means
who would individually care to call
down on their heads the ridicule abuse,
and blackmailing methods OF
the trust and its hirelings. But by ap-
paaling to the general public as the
Uncle Sam OIL Company has done from
its beginning, and banding t9gether
from every part of the country. 1t has
been able thus far to raise the necessary
funds to build up this enterprise 10 us
present height Of success. In other
words. by combining the thousands OF
free and Independent citizens who be-
lieve IN "a free market and fair play ana
who consider the holst brazenly made py
the oil trust gang that they are even
bigger than the government as a per-
sOnal affront this company cam by Sc
curing "a thousand dollars here and an
ofhor thousand somewhere else very
easily raise all Of the money needed 10
hulf up a giant Independent enterprise
capable of securing and Maintaining the
Sd" AIDE of che central west, and under
present conditions and the feeling or the
people can practically drive the trust out
OF the homo western central states.
Uncle Sam Company should have az
least four years supply Of crude oil
ahead all the time. 1t is only good, pfac-
teal business sense to build these stor-
will be worth more In fifteen years from
now than It costs today to build them.
here are tens Of thousands OF indl-
vifuals I'm the United States who can
very easily mail their check or draft
for fifteen thousand dollars and secure
fifteen thousand dollars worth or nonus
at par. And in so doing enable the
r-ncle Sam Company TO erect one htty-
fve-thousand-harrel steel storage tank
