For JUNIOR CLASS President HERB COOK NON-PARTISAN CANDIDATE I’d, Like * to Know,..' i You may have heard that \ a suit has been filed by \ the Antitrust Division in \ Washington to break up Standard of California as well as six other West Coast oil companies. Many people have writ ten us protesting this action. Many have asked pertinent questions. We believewe should answer these questionsfor every one. We do so this way. If you have a question, we urge you to write: “I’d Like to Know” 225 Bush Street, San Francisco 20 *1 "How much competition is there among major oil companies?" Harry F. Wood, attorney of Olympia, Washington, writes: '‘What type of competition does actually exist among the major oil companies? Price? Service? Research? If it’s research, we should find one oil company's brand of , ^ ^ ^ oil, for example, gives better engine protection." V. The answer to this question is much the same for the oil industry as for most others. Com* V petition is intense in all operations. In oil, operations group under four broad headings ... Competition starts with crude. Oil com panies explore, bid for rights to land where oil may exist. Then they must produce at costs low enough to meet market prices. Competition continues in refining. Again each company must make the operation pay. If products are either not good enough or too expensive, we can’t keep customers. Competition in research exists indeed. A company must keep pace or lose out. Cur rent pace-setter is our new motor oil. With tests using atomic energy, our scientists reveal it reduces engine wear as much as one-half, compared with conventional oils. And competition shown up clearly where our products are sold. This is partly compe tition in service. (“We take better care of your car.”) But it’s competition in price, too. To get and hold business, every seller 1 has to hold his prices down to meet others.
