At thousands of independent serv , ce stations up and down the Pacific ) least from Vancouver to San Diego new ."double-powered" gasoline : Jeneral Ethyl became available to ; Western motorists Thursday. The f new product, claimed to produce an ; ntlrely new type of motor car per ' .'urmance, was developed and Is be ' lift marketed by the General Petro leum Corporation of California. Gen : ;ral Ethyl Is a combinrtlon of Violet Ray Anti-knock gasoline, refined by Ueneral Petroleum Corporation of California, and Ethyl fluid, which ; waa developed In the General Motors " research laboratories. Violet Ray la already well-known as one of the outstanding motor : fuels on the Pacific Coast. It Is pro-, duced and aold by the General Pe troleum Corporation ot California, ine ot the largest factors In the American petroleum Industry. Us - vltallted quality and Its natural anti knock effect have made It a favorite among thousands of motorists In British Columbia, Washington, Ore-I PflC. California, Nevada and Arizona. nftalpb G. Bowman, assistant gen-l ral sales manager of the General Petroleum Corporation, explains that the result of adding Ethyl to Violet Ray Anti-knock gasoline Is to pro- : dure an extra surge of double power. "Violet Ray gasoline possesses na tural anti-knock qualities so striking as to attract thousands of Pacific Coast motorists exclusively to It. When these two produces Violet Ray and Ethyl are combined as they are in General Ethyl, the result . ta as obvious aa adding two and two. "The General Petroleum Corpora- - turn ot California will continue to bas spent nearly (1,000,000 making the new outstanding product avail able to tbe motoring public. Every division of the marketing department bas been thoroughly or ganized and tuned up to take care ol the tremendous demand created by tbe extensive advertising campaign simultaneously released. Special storage tanks have been built at all the terminal points of the company and In the principal cities botween Canada and Mexico. Special trucks have been provided for de'lverlnn General Ethyl gasoline from the dls itrlbutlng centers. Thousands ol pumps have been Installed In dis pense Genera! Ethyl gasoline (o the motoring public. A comprehensive advertising cam palgn, of which newspapers are the backbone, was planned, preparer! and is now being released. Varlout other modern elements of selllns strategy such as radio, highway bill boards, station decorations, and 300. 000 special messages to motorists have been employed. The llmlug ol the campaign waa calculated to take advantage of the tremendous amount of motoring done over the Memorial Day holiday. The addition of General Ethyl to its already complete line of petro leum products magnifies the Impor tance of the General Petroleum Cor poratlon as producers, refiners, and marketers throughout the Paclflr Coast states. The popularity of Gen era! Petroleum products Is evidenced by the fact that during tbe first three months of 1930. the company showed a gallonage Increase In Call tornla alone of 16 per cent over the record for the corresponding period tell Violet Rav Antl-knnck zaaollnokif the previous year. tt til same price as ordinary white 1D" usnenng in ot tne new uen ; tasollne.
