Since the present annual income is about 6) billions, American prosper try so the experts say de pends on another measly 1) billions. www Hm-m-m, on that basis it would take up the slack if four additional industries made dol lars dance from hand to hand at the rate shown by the oil in dustry. It takes in and spends 4 billions a year. Even its profit-dollars go out to stock holders. They spend for shoes and washing-machines, facials, and diapers exactly as their em ployees spend the l'i billions received in wages. www The oil industry hands the tax collector away over a bil lion each year and spends an other billion on supplies. That's pump-priming what is pump priming. Its orders keep 40,000 steel workers employed, hold 90,000 railroad men on the job; its employees spend $333,000, 000 yearly for food alone; in fact trtrybody is paid some thing. $0 it does seem thit-according to Uncle Sam's experts more dollar-dishers ith the oil industry's knack of keeping money bright from use are hat this country needs.
