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.

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
