GASOLINE OUTPUT
INCREASING YEARLY
No Need for Any Worry Over a
Substitute for Motive Power
for Motors.
By HARRY WARD.

Probably the most unfounded topic
among motorists today is the supposed
catastrophe of losing gasolene as a
motor car fuel Wherever they meet
the one live topic is the practicability
OF benzol alcohol. condensed natural
gas or other mediums as a gasolene
substitute
Apparently the motorist seems to be
dreading that the petroleum from
which sasolene is produced will soon
give out. That their fears are un-
founded is evident by the increased
amount to sasolene being produced
from petroleum and the increased mile
age being secured per gallon.
According to an investigation by a
leading automobile authority, there
are 1.7oo.ocncOO gallons of automobile
gasolene refined each year and only -
oon.oo0 motor cars to use 1t.
Chemists Sem eimplGSysd eyed by large gasolene
Sasolene production by improved re-
filming methods, which have replaced
the wasteful ways of a few years ago.
Besides, automobile manufacturers
they are perfecting every part so
mnutely and scientifically that every
possible ounce of power is secured
from a gallon of gas"
With the increased production of
Easolene and steadily increasing mile
age the motorist need fear no immediate
loss OF fuel.
