oil just little lighter than kerosene
but heavier than gasoline. 1t Is an i'm
portant addition to our fuel oil re-
sources. the production amounting to
approximately per cent of the total
production of gasoline this year."
The addition OF these three methods
explains the low grade of the fuel
which dealers are now supplying and
also explains some of the difficulties
which people are having with their au-
tomobile engines and carburetors.
Looking to the future. scientists have
been busy trying to devise plans for
perpetuating the supply of gasoline.
AS Mr. Manning has said, the supply
bids fair to last out only thirty years
more. Between now and time thirty
years distant. many ways will proba-
bly, be devised for producing new fuel
supplies. Already the bureau has its
eyes fixed upon the oil shales in Colo
RADIO and Utah as a substitute source
for a certain amount of gasoline.
=
Field investigations of these oil-pro-
ducing shales are being carried on at
present by the geological survey to
And out their exact distribution. rich
ness and quantity. The bureau Of
mines is at work testing methods for
the utilization of the rock. The result
OF the investigation so far shows that
these shale areas do constitute a la
tent petroleum supply, the gasoline
content of which can be conservatively
estimated in billions of barrels. The
survey reports that shales of no great
er oil content have long been mined
and distilled in Scotland.
1t has also been suggested that ben
zol might be used as a substitute for
gasoline, in case the price of the latter
product reaches prohibitive heights.
Scientists have reason to believe that
Germany is now using benzol exclu-
sive1y for her motors. Indeed, auto
mobile owners of Europe have used it
generally for some time.

What has been the result of this in
creased use Of the automobile? The
answer is Obvious steadily increas-
ing demand for gasoline. But what Is
the effect of this increased demand for
gasoline? An attempt on the part of
reflners to make up for the decline Of
the gasoline-rich crude oil in the
country's largest source of supply-by
distilling a grade of gasoline which
contains more Of the heavy oils than
formerly
Hence the Automobiles complaint.
And now the point is reached where
this variable quality-gasoline-
first seems one thing and then turns
out to be another, must be standard
lied, SO that basis may be provided
for the consumer to know what he is
getting when he spends his money.

he said, "our future supply of petro-
leum Is only sufficient to last US from
twenty-seven to thirty years at the

not take into consideration any in

In order to supply the fuel for future
automobiles it will be necessary to
make better use of our crude oil pro-
duction in the future than we have in
the past.
I'm discussing the various problems
