Revenue Report
Washington,' Feb. 27 0J.R)
Everything from canasta to pro
posed congressional legislation
was reflected today in a report
on government tax collections
in January.
Total collections by the Inter
nal revenue bureau of January
were $3,464,644,003 nearly
six per cent below the $3,679,
599.432 collected in January,
1949. This drop was enough to
wipe out a small gain in collec
tions during the first half of fis
cal 1950 over the same period
for fiscal 1949.
The bureau reported that the
number of tax stamps sold to
manufacturers of playing cards
jumped from 4,916,858 in Jan
uary, 1848, to 7,581,604 last
month. The rise coincided with
tos, and complete directions

Two Grades of Gae Used
Sponsored by General Petroleum
Corporation, the rigidiy controlled
test dramatically demonstrates the
performance, economy, and safety of
the 1950 automobile when correctly
driven, lubricated and fueled. We per
mitted entrants to select cither regular
(Mobilgas) or premium (Mobilgas
Special) grade of gasoline in order to
4 more closely parallel the actual choice
that real performance with economy
is within the reach ol every motonst
when the grade of gasoline best suited
to the operation of the car is used and
the car is properly and safely driven.
The tough run was designed to test
performance and economy : there were
61 miles of city driving. 335 miles of
mountain roads, and 355 miles of level
highway. Into the 2 day test we
crammed temperature and altitude
variation that the average motorist
would encounter in a year. Temper
atures dropped from over 70 in Death
Valley to below freezing in the moun
tains. Altitudes ranged from below
sea level to over 7000 feet.
Cars in Peak Condition
To illustrate the relationship of
economy and performance to correct
lubrication, 3-A officials drained,
flushed and refilled every crankcue
with regular Mobiloil to give engines
full protection under both hot and
cold temperatures. All gear housings
were drained, flushed and refilled with
correct grade of Mobil greases. Engine
cooling systems were conditioned for
sub-zero temperatures with Mobil
Anti-Frecze.
Out of the Mobilgas Grand Canyon
Run have come authentic results to
guide the motorist in his choice of
gasoline and motor oil. It shows what
performance and economy any
motorist can gain when a well-conditioned
car is properly driven. It
proved again the ingenuity of the car
builder and the technical skill of the
petroleum chemist, who, combined,
continue to give Americans their
biggest dollar value.
