She didn’t know that our Company had invested millions to remove smoke and vapors from the refinery atmosphere, but she found it highly com patible—and she’s an expert judge of air. The refinery’s human neighbors also benefit. Clearing smoke and smog from the atmosphere of whole cities will be a more complex problem, but Standard Oil works for this, too—through research, joint efforts with public authorities, the loan of top scientists to pollution control projects in your community’s interest. Whether it’s protecting natural resources, scenic areas and wild life ... guarding water resources against pollution ... or preventing contamination of the air in our busy cities... Standard Oil is dedicated to conservation — an important part of our responsibility to you. P.b. The baby hummingbirds, born at our El Segundo, California.' refinery, were as pretty as their mother.
