BIGGEST AUTO
MOBILIZATION
IN ALL HISTORY

The greatest mobilization of au-

vast contribution to the war eff

making American strong in national

such is the substances of a
statement recently issued by the
American Petroleum Industries
Committee says John Erickson,
district manager for the marketers
f Mobiloil, Mobilgas and Mobil
lubricants.
The statement shows that while
there were only $4,000 trucks il
this country when we entered World
War I in 1917, we are now using
100000 trucks carrying food, fuel,
clothing. machinery, war production
materials and other products to
serve the various needs of the pee

"Onc-firth. or one million of the

engaged in lines essential to the

Hence, during the Winter -procf,

They are doing this because they
realize that it is only through con-
sistent Watchfu,ness and regular
scrvice-as recommended by auto
motive engineers-can these mil
lions of motor vehicles be kept in
operation.
"Mobil men also know that it is
becoming more and more difficult
