3 Stations and Bulk Agent Serve Customers
Early and Late With Petroleum Products

All Standard stations in the city
carry wide line of accessories,
but the Whittet concern is the
only one which sells batteries.
They also have a battery charger.
Modern gadgets help them give
superior service to their CUSTOM
ers, they reason, so they have in
stalled a modern gadget to help
themselves. A hose stretched over
the driveways of the place is con-
nected to a bell system so that a
buzzer rings when a customer
rolls up to the pumps.
Only two Foreman brothers of
the three who lease the east
Bridge street station are now &C
tive in its operation. They are
Norville, 20, and Harold, Is. .
Logan, the eldest, worked there
this summer but is now attending
the University of Minnesota as a
senior in the school of law.
The brothers fell heir to one of
the most attractive of all attrac-
tive Standard Oil yards. Just to
the east of their station is a bright
and elaborate rock garden, built
by Byron Whittet, now carefully
tended by Mrs. MacDougall.
Mr.. Sandman started with the
company at Glencoe, driving a
white and bay team of horses hit
ched to a tubular bulk tank. He
eventually graduated to a two cy-
climber truck and now has worked
up to a snappy coupe. In rs years
of driving for Standard Oil, he
has had only one fender dent
safe driving certainly worth some
kiEd of recognition. ...
He and Mrs. Sandman live in
the Schoen apartments.
"I've got out of bed at three
o'clock in the morning in the dead
of winter to fill fuel oil tanks"
says "Gib" MacDougall. "Most
night calls come from people who
are not my regular customers, but
after l have obliged them outside
of regular delivery hours, they
usually become my customers" ),
Mr.. Mac Dougall has practiced
the Standard standard of high
service for II years, having start
ed his eighteenth year with the
company September l..
He trucks gasoline and other
! petroleum products to farmers in
what is approximately a four
mile area in every direction from
the city.
His assistant Tom Tyson, for
mer Standard station operator,
takes care of deliveries in the
| city.
Just now as "sideline" he is
trucking 400 gallons of gas a day
to contractors on the highway II
| project south of town.
Yes, the Redwood Falls branch
of the Standard Oil family is a
large one-a family of varied in
terests-and a family happy in
service to the community.

Graduating from Redwood Falls
High school in 1881, MorriSSey
spent two years training and
racing horses - had charge of
animals owned by Forrest Crock
er of Morgan and A. c. Dolliff of
Redwood Falls.
December Is, 1884 he became
manager of the station and since
1886 has leased it year by. year,
managing it entirely on his own.
He's proud of the fact. that his
station was the first ever built in
Redwood Falls, having been COM
pleted July 4, 1918. Since then it
has been kept in fine condition
with a new coat of paint every
two years. )
Service is the keynote of our
business" Warner says adding,
'We try to make our service con-
sistently good-and we can see
that it helps our business from
year to year.
''In this business you meet some
of the incest people-and some OF
the least appreciative-and things
are pretty well evened up"
Whittet and Son started with
the Standard company January z
1881 at the station on East Bridge
street and moved to the Mill and
Bridge street station over a year
ago.
A large item in their service to
the public is their "a hour

eve have kept our station oper
every night since November 1

Michigan City, Ind, Nov. 18.-(AP)

Sees Textile

South Losing
Murchisol, Says Cot

Hangs in Balance; He
Is Speaker at Duke

Durham, Nov. 18(AP)-Dr. Claudius
Murchison, president of the Cotton
Textile Institute, said here today he
believed the cotton textile industry
was in the South to stay, but that
there was doubt whether it would con-
tinue to be a cotton textile industry,
or just a textile industry.
DIR. Murchison, who prepared an
address for delivery at the Duke Uni
versity symposium on the South's
economics, said the per capita con-
sumption of cotton seemed to be on
the Wane.
GAS textile industry, we will con-
tinue undiminishedi in structure, but
we may not be to so great an extent
a cotton textile industry" Murchison
said. 81 speak advisedly when 1 say
that the fate of cotton as a natural
fibre spun, woven and used in the
customary manner is hanging in the
balance" He pointed to the increase
in production of rayon yarn.
Murchison said the growing Of
trees for wood pulp was a. valuable
new occupation, but that it could not
give employment to great numbers OF
people.
IF eventually" he continued, "the
cotton plant is grown merely for, its
fcellulose content, which is not an un-
reasonable thingauto expect, in the
light of recent laboratory discovery
its method of cultivation and harvest
ing will be completely altered"

dent Roosevelt told a press conference
today that on humanitarian grounds
he had proposed six months extern
sion for between 10000 and $4,000 Ger
man and Austrian refugees to enter

The President said unless this ex
tension were granted the permits of
this large group would be cancelled,
if the refugees were not back in their
native land by the end of the year.
He has informed Secretary of Labor
Perkins, he said, that it would be a
cruel and inhuman thing to compel
these persons to go back to Germany
concentration camps, or other per-
Gecution.
The President smiled but had no
comment on the summoning home of
Hans Dieckhoff, German ambassador
in this country, to- report on the
queer attitude" of the President and
other American authorities on domes-
tic affairs in Germany.
AS for the refugees here on tenn
porary visitors permits, Mr.. Roose-
welt said he would present the facts
to Congress, and if Congress took no
action the refugees will be allowed to
stay in this country.
Also, the President appointed tenn
porary advisory board of four to cam

cal and monetary problems in their
relation to national production and
income. Those named were Secretary
