In fact, should the necessity arise, oil could be stored back down in the wells. I'ctrolciini cnniiuers are already storinc, natural gas in this manner. Why ?

Aniciica's oil companies can expand their relinriies to provide aviation furl fur 5(1,111X1 planes, or even nioie,iirr than the plants inn be built. Now, the surest way to avoid war is to make our defenses strong. And avi ation gasoline is just one example of flow 1 lie petroleum industry is doim; its part to niakcAnirricasiioin;. There air many others. A 65,000 Gallon Tank in Every Back Yard Can it provide enough crude oil ? Yes, there's no danger of running out of oil to make aviation gasoline r any ijtliet- pftriilenm prt,ltiet. Thanks to the industry's voluntary conservation program, wells on the l'acilic Coast are operating far below potential capacity. Production could be doubled on short run ice. Those wells tap proved oil reserves of V2 billion barrels a 65,000 gal lon tankful for every family on the Pacific Coast. And to date new fields have been discovered faster than the old are exhausted. Bomb Shelters Two Miles Deep No imaginable swarm of bombers could wipe out these oil resources. In 58 Pacific Coast fields, there are l',7J0 separate wells, liven if an en- Rubber and Explosives from Oil The petroleum industry is read)' for its part in the nation's defense, but it has not stopped there. The National Oefcnse Advisory Commission re cently announced : ' "Instead of having any bottlenecks of its own, petroleum is now beino nilleil upon to help eliminate bottle lieeks in other iniltntries." Significant are two developments of recent weeks: 1. Synthetic Rubber, developed by petro leum research chemists, is now beiiux produced in commercial quantities in cooperation with the large rubber iDanufacturers. Before our present sup ply of natural rubber is chauted, the U. S. can be made 10(1' ,' self-sullicient with rubber made from oil. 2. Eiplotiei. The petroleum industry has signed contracts with the W ar Department to produce b(),000,(H)0 gallons a year of toluene, the basic ingredient of TNT. (Hyceriue is be ing made in even greater quantities. Production of both these vital mate rials can be expanded to meet the re quirements of new explosive plants at fast as the plants ran be built. A bomb as big as the Washington Monument could never get to these natural storage tanks, completely pro tected by a mile or more of earth.

Incidentally, many of the 60 tank ers which the industry operates on the Pacific C::ast have been built to V. S. Navy specifications, are speedy enough to keep up with the Fleet.

Fuels, lubri cants, rubber. TNT, soap, grain al cohol, sulphuiic acid, plastics, drying oil for paints, disinfectants, and anesthetics. Nature has provided oil in plenty... anil research has developed the means of using it for almost every conceiv able purpose. The way to avoid war is to make America self-sutlicient make Amer ica strong. The petroleum industry, on its on n initiative and without government subsidy, has prepared itself to do its part without delay in a national emergency. America's defense will never be "grounded."
