Interesting Battle
Evaporation Losses

In a general study Of evaporation
losses of petroleum being maze by the
Bureau Of Mines. Ludwig Schmidt, ju-
nior chemical engineer. has arranged
with one Of the larger refining compa-
ries TO conduct series of tests to de-
termine evaporation losses in $4,000
barrel tanks. Regular monthly gauges
will be made and samples of the oil
collected in order TO determine the
change in the quality Of the oil during
storage. II is later planned 10 extend
this investigation TO include water
sealed tanks. Arrangements have been
completed for conducting a series Of
tests in the Tonkawa, oklahoma, oil
field. The crude produced in the Ton
kawa field ranges from 40 to A gravity
and contains approximately 40 per
cent gasoline. Due to the fact that
this crude is very volatile the produc-
ing companies are anxious to obtain
information as to the saving that can
be made by the installation of gas-tight
tanks. A number of such tanks are
already in use i'm the field but refin-
ing companies are anxious to obtain
information as to additional precautions
that should be taken in order TO reduce
evaporation losses.

When cracked gasoline was first
placed on the market 1t met with much
opposition, part at least of which was
due to lack of experience with the
product 1t was soon found that crack.
ed gasoline, particularly if made care
lessly, had a tendency to deposit gum
my and resinous substances in storage,
and in some ctses in actual use in
the engine. This PHENOMENON has
usually been attributed TO polymeriza-
tion of the unsaturated hydrocarbons
present. One theory is that the olefns
themselves will not form gums. but
that the latter are due to the presence
OF diolefins. Information has been no.
tably lacking as to the nature. origin,
and method of formation of these
gummy substances. Some of the ques.
tions asked about them follow: Are
the gums all of the same character?
Are they similar TO the coumarone res.
ins, or are they possibly allied to the
resins Of commerce, which are derived
from the terpenes? How should the
amount of gum in n given sample Of
gasoline be determined? How much,
if any, gum is permissible in motor
gasoline; how much in aviation gaso.
line? The results of a general inyes.
tlgation Of gumforming constituents in
gasoline are contained in Serial 2394,

INSPECTION OF KRE0SENE
IN CANS NOT REQUIRED
Lewis Circuit Courts Decision In OIL
Inspector Case Is Affirmed by Court
Of Appeals settling big Question.

Frankfort, Ky, Nov. 14.-Judgment
Of the Lewis Circuit Court in favor of
the Standard Oil Company. indicted
in that county on a charge of failing
to have oil containers inspected and
falling to put the inspection stamp on
the containers, was affirmed by the
Court OF Appeals today in an opinion
by Judge Settle
The case was submitted on an
agreed statement OF facts, which show
ed that an agent OF the company at
vanceburg had carried a gallon of
keroesne taken from a tank car to
the inspector. who had tested it, and
delivered to customers, the cans being
emptied and retained by the Standard
Oil Company.
The court said that, while it might
be unusual for the inspector not to
take his own samples out of the car.
still an inspection was made, and the
requirement for containers to be
branded as inspected. applied only to
barrels and cans in which oil was de-
livered in bulk to customers. II was
not necessary for the company to
stamp its own cans, which its agent
emptied into containers OF the Gus
toners. and retained.
