MOTOR EXPERTS WERE RIGHT — K’W 1oves 4 Yhe cade Susey ayamdfofi@fizozét SO WE MADE A NEW KIND OF OIL -THE 1939 "RPM” For months Motor Experts have been saying that old- type oils make trouble in modern tight-fitting engines. Qils once generally favored simply can’t cope with modern operating conditions. They deposit gum, carbon and varnish that reduce engine efficiency. In short, the motor gets sluggish—costly! That’s why Motor Experts insist a NEW KIND of oil is needed—badly needed. But Standard engineers were already at work on this problem. They started at the beginning. They dis- carded all old-type oil conceptions. They decided on an entirely new refining process. And we backed that new process with a new $3,500,000 plant. Now we have that NEW KIND of motor oil —the 1939 “RPM”,—a NEW KIND of oil that does not “break down” under high temperatures. It stays clean. It keeps the engine clean. And it gives mileage equal to or better than any other oil, regardless of source. Quite naturally, too, the use of “RPM?” maintains high engine performance —maximum power and low fuel consumption. Facts are facts. “RPM”—the NEW KIND of motor oil—gives you smoother operation and a cleaner en- gine than any lubricants you have known, at any price. * How oils, until recently satisfactory, are trouble- makers in modern motors is proved by a newly com- pleted Repair-Shop Survey, by an independent research company. These experts found that in modern cars brought in for repairs, 77% of the oil-return passages in oil rings are clogged with gum (the first stage in varnish formation), sludge, carbon, and other deposits. WE BREAK A TRADITION By tradition, Standard Oil advert g is couservative—it un- derstates the merits of the products advertised. Because a new kind of motor oil is so necessary today and because this NEW KIND of motor oil, “RPM”, is so cl type oil, we're going to do it full j justice—by saying to you—*RPM" ly superior to any old- e—but no more than TODAY’S NO.1 MOTOR OIL “BUY"!
