cracking yields the same amount of gasoline, but of a much higher grade. For the
catalyst acts as a "molecule immigration Inspector"-allowing only those petroleum

4 Finally, we'd like to make one more point
This 100 octane plant represents an Invest
ment of $40,000,000. But the U. S. Treasury
didn't have to put up a penny. We dug up the money
ourselves without any help from Government subsi
dies. We're rather proud of this, of course, but. the fact
that u could do it Is far more important than our
personal feelings.
For It points up a principle that has had more to do
with our country's war production record than any
other influence in American life. That principle is our
American System of Fret Enterprise, Because of this
free, competitive system every American business,
large and small, has been encouraged to develop as far
and as fast as its abilities would take it
- Consequently, when war came, companies like Union
had already developed the "know-how," the 'resources
and the capacity to convert to military production with
out a hitch. As a result our nation has been able to do
the greatest job of war production ever accomplished
by any people in history. We believe that's something
to think about
