100 Per Cent Relief.
"The aim of the organization is 100
per cent relief, the relief which puts
those aided on u self-supporting basis,
which Instills In them a confidence for
the future, places in their hands the
means with which to begin life anew,
and in their hearts the courage to go
on. Work, that is the prescrlption
subscribed and provided by those loyal
men and women who have journeyed
into perilous places for the sake of
their fellow men; to make these peo-
ple independent for the future, to en-
courage the flickering fire of national
pride.
"There are 82,291 w orkers employed
in the industrial establishments of the
Near East Relief, where wool is fur-
nished for the women to spin and
weave, and all the girls who are strong
enough are washing wool, sewing beds,
grinding and sifting wheat, tailoring
and learning to make Inee. The big
problem is to make these women inde-
l pendent.
"About 500 American men and wo
! men, Near East Relief workers, are
I now in tin1 held. including 36 eminent
physicians and surgeons, 76 nurses, 7
mechanics, 15 industrial experts, 16
agriculturists, 14 bacteriologists, 197
relief workers, 25 supply and trans-
port workers, 19 teachers, 20 adminis-
trators. 34 secretaries, 7 engineers and
45 army oficers.
Where Money Goes.
"Funds for relief purposes are dis-
tributed in two ways: First, the vari-
ous relief centers are authorized by
the Executive Committee to draw sight |
drafts on New York for specific
amounts each month; second, by sup-
p es purchased in America, the major '
portion of which are shipped to the
committee warehouses at DerindJe,
mill the remainder either to Beyrouth
or Batoum.
"The relief is rapidly expanding and
meeting the situation, but the future
depends on the continuation of Ameri- '
can support.”
According to Mr. Hemphill, the need
for American help to see the destitute
peoples .if the Near East-through the
riss of present conditions is greater
now than ever before on account of the
uncertainty as to the future, the trucu
lence of the Turkish government and
the danger of bolshevism from Russia
which threatens to engulf the whole of
Armenia.
Who Direot ths Work.
Mr. Hemphill is the Chairman of the
Executive Committee of the Near East
Relief. Other members are Dr. Jame*

Company’s success, at tempt to put
out similar propositions but the
Cooperaive Oil Products Com-
pany have been in successful ope-
ration for nearly two years and
are a profitable going concern.
This Company is the only one
of its kind which has the unquali-
fied endorsement of the West
Texas Chamber of Commerce.
Banks and Chambers ofCommerce
throughout Texas heartily en-
dorse this Company’s proposition
as being conservative, profitable
and worthy of consideration
along the lines of utility and in-
vestment.
The Company has refinery con-
nections which insure a plentiful
supply of gasoline, kerosene, oils
ami greases at all times so there
will be no shortage of these pro-
ducts when their wholesale and
retail stations are installed in
Frederieksburg. Work will begin
on these stations at the earliest
moment and local contractors will
have the building of same in
hand. Local men who under-
stand this business have already
been engaged to handle our sta-
tion ami as they have reputation
for business ability, integrity and
hustle, this guarantees that the
Company’s slogan, “Service',
will be he keynote of their ope-
ration.

The Co-operative Oil Products
Company is a Texas organization
pure and simple. The company
is not interested in the specula-
tive branch of the oil business
and we assure our certificate hold-
ers that none of their money will
ever be squandered drilling dry
holes and buying worthless leas-
es. We concentrate on the safe
and sure branch of the business,
the selling of oil products through
our own filling stations and as
these products are as staple as
bread and butter we are making
money and paying dividends out
of the profits right now.
The company has 50 stations
in operation contracted for amt

To all Chambers of Commerce
and Affiliated Units:
We take this opportunity to
commend to you for your very
serious consideration, the plans
of the Co-Operative Oil Products
Co., a Texas corporation that is
putting in co-operative drive -in
gasoline filling stations in diffe-
rent towns of Texas.
It is our opinion that these
stations are of very great benefit,
not only from an artistic but
from a utility standpoint, and we

business permanently. We con-
sider the investment one of the
best to be made. The company
is reliable and able to carry out
their agreement.
We know that the towns in
West Texas which have had these
stations put in are mighty well
pleased with them. We under-
stand that they now have fifteen
stations in West Texas and
twenty - five stations in East
Texas. They propose to build
one hundred stations in Texas.
We believe any co-operation
extended to these people will be
greatly appreciated and merited.
• Yours very truly.
