KEEP OREGON GREEN NEED Envelopes, Phone 882 I ' 't' "What happens when Standard men go into the armed forces?" One question on many people's minds these days is how military service may affect themselves or people tliey know... tiieir jobs, their family security. People ask us, of course, about what happens to em ployees of Standard Oil Company of California. The answer shows what a big company can do. Standard Oilers come tlirough this trying period ' in better financial shape than you might expect: Let's take for example Bill, an avemgo young Standard Qilor. He makes $368 a month. He tuts Company-paid life insurance worth $4,420, a pension plan paid partly by liimaulf, other benefit. Suppose Bill is called into the armed forces. One problem a mnn faces then is lower inconio. Hut be cause Bill qualities us to depend ents and length of service, he'll be hulHU by a Standard Plan. " V" '' ik"'"' 1 lh4 When Bill leaves, he gets an ex tra month's pay. Then, Standard sends his family a monthly check to make up the difference be tween his G I and Company pay up to one-half his regular salary. I Moreover, Bill's Company life insurance remains in force. And the pension plan, which Bill paid for in part wldle he was working, continues to grow but now Standard of California pays it all. MM When Bill comes back, his job is waiting, his benefits are intact. Standard, having big economic re sources can act to preserve the human resources of the nation... people like Bill and his family. This is Standard's "G.I. Policy" for qualified employees called into the Armed Forces. We believe it helps to strengthen Company morale, and that of the whole nation as well. I'd Like to Know . . . Many people write to Standard asking pertinent questions about the Company. Wo answer ay letters individually, but some points eoem of general interest. We take this way of discussing them for everyone. If you have a question, w urge you to write in care of; "I'D Like TO Know," 225 Bush Street, San Francisco 20, California.
