You and the West profit
when Standard changes a dollar
in every service
at reasonable cost.
Like you and your family, Standard Oil Company
of California has to have money coming in to keep
gi ¡ng. 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) goes into circulation, its benefits are
broad and deep. Practically everyone in the West

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:
