m - v • •
OIL BUSINESS
The demand for oil increases every
year.
Americans need more oil for more
automobiles, for more airplanes, more
ships, more high speed locomotives and
more of many things besides.
And just as one merchant competes
with another for your business, oil
companies compete for it, too — for
the gallons of gasoline and quarts of
¥
motor oil you buy; to supply the
ships, the locomotives, the industries,
the airplanes.
The competition is intense, and it
spreads throughout the industry. Oil
companies compete with each other to
find and produce more oil. Pipe line
companies vie with each other to de-
velop low cost transportation. Refin-
eries compete to supply more and better
oil products. Salesmen compete on the
basis of quality products and the serv-
ice rendered.
It’s a good thing, this competition, a
healthy thing. It is the life of the oil
business; it keeps the industry vigor-
ous, progressive, enterprising. p
But its chief benefit is to you and
other Americans. Competition within
the oil industry discovers and develops
a natural resource necessary not only to
modern living but to national defense.
It supplies you and the country with
continuously improved petroleum prod-
ucts; today, two gallons of gasoline
do work that required three in 1925,
but the gasoline costs no more than it
did then.
