For many years the Standard Oil Com- pany (Indiana) has been in the lead of those forces which sought conservation, economy and maximum efficiency 10 the refining of petroleum. This Company was convinced that refin- ing methods were susceptible of contin- uous improvement; it believed that with year of experience, more gasoline might be produced from the crude oil. In furtherance of this idea of continually increasing efficiency, the Company ine stalled the best laboratory equipreent ob- tainable, and employed the most expert petroleum chemists. From these labora- ‘tories, has come among other notable im- provements, the famous Burton process, to increase the yield of gasoline from the é crude, without sacrifice of quality. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana). is so organized that it is responsive to new ideas, both social and industrial. Its pol- icy is flexible. It does not operate by rule of thumb.’ The very foundation of its ability to be of such fundamental service to society, lies in its recognition of the value of a close alliance between industry and science. It has developed an organ- ization which fits smoothly into the machinery of social progress. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is guided by men who represent in their eve: points of view the minations of the new world in which we ‘ live. These men, Directors of the Com- ’ pany, conceive their task to be that of guiding the industry in accordance with modern ideas’ of These men possess both the experience derived from long intimacy with petrol- eum problems, and the foresight to anticipate the future with its constantly changing industrial values and economic needs.
