Texaco Plans
Refining Unit
In East Cuba

NEW YORK-The Texas Com
pany will start construction this
month on a 10000 barrel-a-day re-
finery at Santiago de Cuba, Au-
gustus C. Long, President, has an
nounced. It is expected that the
refinery, the first to be built in
Eastern Cuba, will go on stream
early in 1867.
The 40O-acre site for the new
refinery is on the west side Of the
deep water harbor about three
miles south of Santiago de Cuba.
It is estimated that the refinery
will cost in excess of $4,000, 900.
Long said one reason that The
Texas Company decided to build
a refinery in Cuba was the pro-
mitigation of Decree Law No. 1858
which was published in the Official
Gazette Of November A, 1854. This
law was designed to encourage the
investment of foreign capital in
Cuba.
"The splendid cooperation Of the
Cuban Government has been a
vital factor in making possible an
early start in the construction
work of this important project,
Long said.
The Texas Company's petition to
construct a refinery under the
terms of the decree law was ap-
proved by the Cuban Government
on September 16, 1866.
Cuba's refining capacity is now
about 10000 barrels per day, while
consumption Of petroleum products
last wear was at the rate Of ap-
proximately $4,000 barrels per DAY.
Texaco has been marketing fuel
oil and lubricants in Cuba Tor
nearly 40 years. It recently estao,
lished retail service stations ana
is now also marketing gasoline and
diesel fuel.
The new refinery will be built
for The Texas Company (West
Indies) Ltd, a wholly-owned SUD-
sidiary Of The Texas Company.
CONSTRUCTION will be under the d.
rection Of The Texas Company's
Refining Department. When com
pleted. it will employ about zOO
persons. most Of whom will be
Cubans. =.
Included in the refinery facili-
ties are q 100000 barrel-per-day

j. S. Farmers
Told Worst
Is Yet To Come

The Nations farmers are in for
more of the same-less money in
their jeans-in 1866, the Agricul-
ture Department predicted.
Out Of every dollar housewives
will spend for food next year, the
department said, farmers will get
40 cents, compared with an esti-
mated IL cents this year and 43
cents in 1854.
The farmers shrinking share Of
the food dollar has been going on
pretty much since 1915 when he
got So cents of each dollar spent.
The department indicated also
that farm prices next year would
be below 1866 levels. Farm prices
have already fallen over s per cent
so far in 1865.
The drop in the farmers share
Of the consumers food dollar was
not completely passed onto the con-
sumner in the form of lower prices.
The so-called marketing margin
was about per cent higher in the
third quarter of 1855 than a year
ago.
The department noted also that
net profits after taxes Of firms
manufacturing food, tobacco and
textile products were larger in the
first half of 1865 than in the six
month period Of 1854.

Ready to heat and eat just as it

For lunch for the children, just

They all meet on American
tables at this time of year, in the
pumpkin and mince pies featured
particularly on Thanksgiving
Day.
When these pies first came in
to the American scene, spices
were even more important than
they are today. In Colonial times,
spices were guarded jealousy by
the master of the house, kept
locked in his private desk. They
were considered treasures to be
used only on special occasions.
Today the spice shelves at
home are filled with a wider va
riety than our forefathers could
hope to own. But, then as now,
their most important use is on
the day when all America gives
thought to its blessings and re-
turns its thanks to the Great
Power which has made these
blessings a reality. Z
