General Four-Star gasoline. Eight years ago. General Pe troleum launched a similar cam paign when it first entered the northwest field," Ralph G. Bow man, assistant general sales man ager, said yesterday. "Public re ception and endorsement of its products at that time were phenomenal,-and it is anticipated that the present campaign will be even mors resultful. "Newspaper space will carry the major part of the sales bur den. General Petroleum, like other major industrial units, hav ing proved to its own satisfaction that there Is no substitute for newspaper advertising. All other elements in the campaign will tie In with the newspaper effort." Back of the introduction of Gen eral Petroleum's new motor fuel, to be known as new General Four Star gasoline, lies one of the ro mance stories of the petroleum in dustry. Years or research, stndy and engineering, and the addition of now refinery equipment, cost ing in excess of 31,900,000, were required to produce the gasoline which petroleum chemists have pronounced the most highly ef ficient motor fuel refined to date. "This gratifying result was fin ally brought about by the grad ual development of two new pro cesses in gasoline refining, pro cesses which literally break up and rearrange the molecules of gasoline In such a way that they become stabilized," Mr. Bowman stated. "The technical explana tion is fascinating, but too Involv ed to be clear to the lay mind. Perhaps I can make It under standable by saying that in their original forms, the gasoline mole cules are 'on the loose. They're not fixed, and consequently they represent uncontrolled and wast ed power. By changing their char acter and stabilizing them, this power is brought under control and made wholly available to the motorist."
