In fact, should the necessity artsa oil could be stored back down in the wells. Petroleum engineers arc already storing: natural gas in this manner. Why? Because in America we can make aviation gasoline just that much petter than any other country.

' Significant are two developments of recent weeks : a.StheUsaSir, developed by petro leum research chemists, is now being produced in commercial quantities in cooperationLwith the large rubber .manufacturers. Before our present sup ply of natural rubber is exhausted, the U. S. can be made 100 self-sufficient with rubber made from oil. The petroleum industry. has signed contracts with the War Department to produce "60,000,000 gallons a year of toluene, the basic ingredient d TNT.
