But now that the war is won, we are at liberty to make the following statement of facts: •s. i » 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 less in storage by evaporation would be great, and it would be Highly volati gasoline for fighting aeroplanes was cue of the war needs. The output of this special gasoline by all the refineries oast of the Rocky Mountains was not enough, so Califor nia was called upon to furr -h a large part of the supply. At the request cf the United States Government. rhe Pa cific Coast Petroleum War Sendee Committee apportioned California’s quota among such of the large refiners as were able to make this special gaso line. 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 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 cur quo- ^a of aviation gasoline. 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 in low boiling- point constituents or easy - starting qualities was rr.cst apparent. 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.CG0 to 25,GOO feet) would be utterly indifferent for use in automobile or other internal combustion engines operated on land or sea. i Now that the war is won and the great demand for aviation gasoline has ceased, we are again able to offer 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 power and long mileage. Aviation gasoline has to be highly volatile.
