T h ey affected a vital w a r necessity regarding w hich
the G overnm ent required secrecy. B u t nov/ th a t the

sta te m e n t of facts:
Highly volatile gasoline for fighting-
aeroplanes was one of the war needs.
The output of this special gasoline by
all the refineries east of the Rocky
Mountains was not enough, so Califor
nia was called upon to furnish a large
part of the supply. At the request of
the United States Government the Pa
cific Coast Petroleum War Service
Committee apportioned California’s
quota among such of the large refiners
as were able to make this special gaso
line.
The Standard Oil Company, being
the largest of these, had the greatest
quota to fill. We were glad to do our
part. We supplied more than our quo
ta of aviation gasoline.
Aeroplane engines, operating high in
the air under conditions of extreme
cold and rarefied atmosphere, require a
different gasoline from engines operat
ing on the ground. In fact, the needs
are so special that the gasoline manu
factured for aeroplane use (often used
at altitudes of from 20,000 to 25,000
feet) would be utterly indifferent for
use in automobile or other internal-
combustion engines operated on land
or sea.
Aviation gasoline has to be highly
volatile. It must vaporize rapidly even
in the extreme cold of very high alti-
tudes. On its rapid vaporization alone
must often depend the lives of the men
in the aeroplane. This gasoline would
not be good for general use. It would
lack power on the ground, its loss in
storage by evaporation would be great,
and it would be expensive.
Making aviation gasoline for the
Government took a very considerable
part of the low boiling point or highly
volatile constituents of the crude oil,
and, as a result, the gasoline left avail
able for regular use lacked those quali
ties which assure easy starting of the
automobile engine.
The Government’s demand for avi
ation gasoline reached its maximum in
the late fall of 1918, and then for a peri
od of about six weeks the deficiency of
Red Crown gasoline hi low boiling-
point constituents or easy - starting
qualities was rr.c st apparent.

Now that the war is won and the
great demand for aviation gasoline has
ceased, we are again ¿.ble to offei the
same grade of Red Crown gasoline as
formerly, with the same full and con
tinuous chain of boiling points—from
the low to the high—which is necessary
for easy starting, quick and smooth
acceleration, high pow er and long
mileage.
