great national competitor OF the oil mon
poly. A crisis was brought about a few
months ago by this monopoly TO aid its
henchmen to practically grab the oil in
the high grade Gushing oil fields. Prices
of the refined products were lowered
around the local refineries and every-
thing possible done TO drive out of the
oil business everybody but the trust The
state and national officials that could
bring custer suits under state and ma
tional antitrust laws are either AFRAID
OF the political power OF the trust or too
busy at something else-and so the trust
has a clear field. Meantime the larger
part Of the great Usage Nation oil and
gas fields viii soon be on the auction
block. During this crisis high grade oil
was put down as low as rs cents per
barrel. Gasoline has been lowered IN
the Middle West and advanced In other
districts of the nation all in the same
week. Crude oil at such prices would
be like corn at cents per bushel or
wheat at Is cents per bushel
The so-called Independent oil men are
the biggest noise makers and the poor
ltst organized body of citizens in the
business world. or course. they have TO
eight the most powerful OF all the Grim
,lal trusts.
The farmers are organized SO that
their corn and wheat cannot be taken
at conspiracy price. but not so with
oil,
Necessity Is the mother of invention.
When the oil monopoly started a war
on the Kansas producers few years
ago, group of pioneer producers or
ganized The Uncle Sam Oil Company to
protect their properties and to build In
the Middle West a real independent pro-
ducine refining ane marNeting com
pany-a competitor of the trust to be
worthy of the name.
This company at times has been made
to travel a rocky road but the Kansas
pioneers are of the staying kind and
hardships and persecution caused our
leaders to strive all the more determln-
edy.
The Uncle Sam Oil Company built the
first three refineries in Kansas and Ok
lahoma. Built the first Independent pipe
line in the Middle West. Our pipe line
Is now completed and in operation for
t51 miles. 1t connects two refineries
In two states and III of our oil wells.
and the larger percentage of our oil lands
and leases.
The Uncle sam Oil Company built and
has maintained the first marketing
stations direct to the people over Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma and Kansas. 1t entered
this field as a poneer-the first to de-
fy the trust in this rich district in forty
years.
The competition The Uncle Sam on
Company pioneered and has bravely
maintained has caused the people of the
Middle West to secure a better grade of
refined oils than formerly was furnished
and also at a reduction In price of sew
eral million dollars.
The trust has secretly placed its
henchmen into state and federal offices
and then struck at us with an its venom,
should have been our protectors. Big
monopoly newspapers, investment 1ourn-
ais and up-lift magazines that are kept
by the criminal rich toaniislead the pub
lie by false editorials and news com
ment in favor of the schemes OF the
Wall Street wolves have all at times
opened their concealed batteries. But
Right is a mighty warrior and through
it all The Uncle Sam OIL Company has
continually Increased its assets.
1t has thousands of acres Of oil and
gas leases properly located in the big
oil counties in Oklahoma and over fif-
teen hundred acres of decided lands.
The greatest high grade oil field In the
world is in Range in Usage, pawnee
and Creek counties in oklahoma. In the
same district in this Range our Com
PAM controls two hundred acres of
decided land and has nearly three thous-
and acres of oil and gas leases. We
have locations now where drills should
be started in about fifty different 2lac-
es.
The big banks do not dare to extend
reasonable credit to The Uncle Sam Oil
