A Flourishing Disease — *Acceleritis'
There is a new disease rampant today. It claimed 670,000
victims last year and was responsible for almost 14,000
deaths. Striking only when a person is seated behind the
steering wheel of an automobile, this disease is called “ac-
celentis."
Its symptoms are a heavy foot and a light head, a com
bination which usually results in insane speed The virus of
this disease attacks the mind and destroys all habits of cour
tesy and caution.
Excessive speed — "acceleritis' — is regarded as the
greatest single cause of traffic accidents and deaths.
Although no known vaccine has been developed to com
bat this mental sickness, preventive medicine measures can
be applied to young persons through high school courses in
proper driving. In cases of incurables, a driver's license can
be taken, away in order to remove an individual as a high
way menace.
And as for the rest of us—we must see to it that we al
ways drive at a speed suitable to the conditions of traffic
and weather.
To end the modem sickness of “acceleritis”, the best
available remedy is simply to slow down so that you andi-
other.- may live.—Star Valley Independent (Afton. Wyo )

You and the West profit
when Standard changes a dollar
Like you and your family. Standard Oil Company
of California has to have money coming in to keep
going. And like you. we must divide every dollar of
this income into quite a few pieces to keep the bills
paid. Our budgeting is naturally on a large scale, but
the result is about the same: most of the money
Standard takes in goes right back into circulation.
And when a sum like $1.229.000.000 our total in
come last year goew into circulation, its benefits are
broad and deep. Practically everyone in the West
shared, directly or indirectly, in Standard’s good
year. We thank you for your patronage that made
it possible. And we’d like you to know that a sizable
piece of change from each of our dollars goes for
things that improve service to you: research facilities
for development of better products at low cost: new
plants to make them more available: widespread ex
ploration for new petroleum fields to help keep
America's oil barrel full. To do these jobs, now and for
the future, here’s how we changed a Standard dollar:
tng capital and
debt.
This $20 million increased
inventories of products for future
sale and included pax ments on debt.
^8^ from every dollar
went
for wages, services and goods Of this
$471,500.000 the largest item ' as f. r

of the rest went to buy supplies, from
paper clips to steel, bought locally

construction and exploration.
