THE solution of our present
Il day problems lies in in
creased production. To this
end the Whole-hearted efforts
of the $4,000 employees of the
Standard Oil Company Indi-
anal are directed.
The service rendered by the
Standard Oil Company [Indi-
anal to industry generally,
amounts to keeping the wheels
of production at top speed.
Pause for a moment: try and
think of a single unit of pro
duction which is not dependent
upon one of the products of
petroleum. Even the machine
which turns out the humble
laces on your shoes must have
lubricating oil.
The Standard Oil Company
[Indianal in it's capacity as a
public servant, serves scores of
industries and thousands of
institutions with lubricants to
minimize friction, thus increas-
ing production.
Let the Company relax it's
vigilance and allow the quality
of its products to deter1orate,
the number of revolutions per
minute on your machines will
decrease, and under-produc-
ton will follow.
If the Company is able to. pro-
duce an oil which will permit
greater speed, without undue
friction, the number of revolu-
tons per minute will increase,
and production will increase
In the same ratio.
Thus is illustrated the scope of
responsibility of the Standard
OlCompany Indianal asa a pub
lie servant, which obligation it
is striving hard to discharge
in a satisfactory manner.
