The question of gasoline price affects every motorist: Standard Oil Company of California re ceives some letters along these lines: "When I drive downtown, the prices of all the major gasolines seem to be about the same. I've heard it said that the major oil companies get together to set prices. Isn't this true?" I The answer is an unqualified NO.' Oil com panies do not get together to set prices, nor do we in any way set prices by agreement. But we do think it's in order to tell you about gasoline prices ard how they're arrived at: When you shop you find not only gas but many products of the same kind and about the same quality priced about alike. Prices just naturally tend to even up. Here's why- Suppose a gas dealer were forced to sell at 2c a gallon more than his neigh bors. Business would soon pass him by. Or suppose he had to sell for 2c a gallon less, still giving full quality and service. As his competitors cut price to hold cus tomers, his income falls. In time he would go broke. These imaginary exam ples of set-price policy show what any gas seller is actually up against. He must sell for enough to cover his costs and make a living, yet if he charges too much he'll drive business away. It's as simple as that. it tttt auunr We "set prices" only at sta tions we own and operate Standard Stations, Inc. Ex perience shows what to charge to cover cost of product and service, yet sell in competition. At Chevron Gas Stations the oper ators are completely independent. They make up their own minds about price. You occasionally see a range of gasoline prices for the same or different brands in a single area, until competition finally forces the prices of similar products and services back to a common level. The result: better products at low cost, the benefit you always get when free com petition is allowed to work. Note this: aside from taxes, and in spite of inflation, gasoline today costs about what it did in 1919, yet two gallons now do the work that required three then. I'd Like tO KnOW . . . Many people write to Standard asking pertinent questions about the Company. We answer all letters individually, but some points seem of general interest. We take this way of discussing them for everyone. If you have a question, we urge you to write in care of: "I'd Like to Know," 225 Bush Street, San Francisco 20, California.
