Hawk.
If one or two houses face the
possibility of losing their mort
gages, t he administration may buy
their property and then rent it
back to them at a rate that they
could afford to pay. This would at
least keep them from losing their
property, Hawk raid.

revealed. Whll*- the new president
feels that he has been here too

feels it is not fair to help those
fraternities who have not suffi

8 HOUR DAY
COMMiMCING^ >\I9I7
First oil industry 8-hour day was introduced
by Standard in 1917. Thin was a major
step in our employee relations programs
which include health, pension, insurance
benefits and a stock purchase plan—95%
of eligible employees own Company stock.
On Lindbergh’s trans-Atlantic flight in 1927,
we fueled “The Spirit of St. Louis.” Now, !
safer airliners, faster military planes mark j
aviationprogress wrtiichStandard research
has served. Today we’re making jet and
rocket fuels for tomorrow’s aircraft.

New power for transportation and industry
was born in 1935 when Standard’s first
compounded diesel lubricating oil made
high-speed diesel engines a practical real
ity. Now our scientists are working on
lubricants for the first atomic submarine.
- ..-in nmwmiyw • ~
Making housework easier, Standard made
detergents available for “aoapless soaps”
in 1946. Later we produced the basic in*
gradients for wrinkle-proof clothing for
men and women, adding again to the more
than 1100 products we make from oil.
We pioneered peace-time useof atomic energy.
In 1950, using radioactive piston rings,
Standard measured engine wear as it oc
curs, used this research to develop better
motor oils, including a new oil so superior
it can boost gas mileage up to 15%.
tYou wear a suit woven from oil,
drive on tires bom in a refinery,
whisk over asphalt super-high
ways, read about kerosene-powered
planes that crack the sound barrier.
And you live in a West undreamed of
by those 1879’ers who formed the
Company from which Standard grew.
What lies ahead? If the past is any clue,
oil will be saving you more work and
money, improving your transportation
and putting more luxury in your living.
And Standard will continue to play a
big part in this progress as we follow
our 75-year tradition of planning ahead
to serve you and the nation better.

at the Ritz-Carelton Hotel which
was sold out at fancy prices as
soon as she announuced it. Dur
ing the recital Florence Foster
Jenkins changed her costume at
least 3 times, she regularly ap
' pearect as an angel in a costume
of tinsel and tulle, and with a
pair of wings. She peeped from
the potted palms and threw
flowers at the audience. Her
recital was given in dead seri
! ousness, she believed she was a
, gregt coloratura with terrific
top notes. After a taxi cab
crash in 1943 she discovered
! she could sing a high F, higher
than ever before and instead of
suing the taxi cab company,
, she sent the taxi cab driver a
I box of expensive cigars. She
thought so well of her own
singing she had some reeord
j ings made. These recordings:
"Queen of the Night.” "Aria,”
and "Adeles Laughing Song”
from Fledermaus, are by Vic
j tor at 52.99.
