HOW TO
AVOID WAR

The same bomber can fly
30 faster and farther in the
United States than in Europe.
It can carry 20 more bombs.
Why? Because in America
we manufacture 100 octane
aviation gasoline in quantity
a thing no other nation can do I
But that's only half the
tory. America's oil companies
can expand their refineries to
providr aviation fuel for 50,000
planes, or even more, faster
than the planes can be built.
Is There Enough Crude Oil?
Yes, thanks to the industry's
voluntary conservation pro
gram, Pacific Coast wells are
operating far below capacity.
No other country in the
world can even begin to sup
Port a modern mechanized
army on its domestic produc
tion of petroleum. But the
United States can, because we
have over half the proved oil
reserves of the world.
The Pacific Coast by itself
can supply the Navy even a
two ocean Navy with all the
fuel oil, diesel oil and special
ized greases it will ever need.
Rubber and Explosives from Oil
Synthetic Rubber, developed by
petroleum research chemists, is
now being produced in commer
cial quantities in cooperation with
the large rubber manufacturers.
Before our present supply of
natural rubber is exhausted, the"
U. S. can be made 100 self-sufficient
with rubber made from oil.
Explosives. The petroleum indus
try has signed contracts with i!.e
War Department to produce
60,000,000 gallons a year of
toluene, the basic ingredi.nt of
TNT. Glycerine is beirg n.e in
even greater quantities. P-drc-tion
of both these vital materials
can be expanded to the require
ments of new explosive plants as
fast as the plants can be built.
The way to avoid war is to
make America self-sufficient
make America strong.
The petroleum industry, on
its own initiative and without
government subsidy, has pre
pared itself to do its part with
out delay in a national
emergency.
America s defense will never
be" grounded." Petroleum will
never let her down.
