Do You Have What It Takes?
— Optimism, Belief, Enthusiasm, Judgment, and Just a Little Nerve —
Remember back there as early as July of 1941 when the Officers of
this Company predicted a grave shortage of gasoline, fuel and lubricat
ing oils in 1942 and 1943? Do you recall how the wiseacre propagandist
on the “street” laughed and told you such talk was just a lot of bunk
and sales-chatter? Recollect how this Company advised you away last
Spring to lay in your supplies of coal and fuel oil early lest your family
might be cold before Spring arrived? Do you recall that the Valentine
Oil Company said: “DON’T BE SURPRISED IF GAS RATIONING
MIGHT START IN NEBRASKA ANY DAY”?
‘New Oil
Reserves Must
Be Located’
Washington, D. C., Sept.
2 (AP). — Frank Buttram,
president, Independent Pe
troleum Association of Am
erica, told the petroleum in
dustry war council today
“we must definitely notify
all interested parties that
additional oil reserves must
be discovered in the near
future and immediate steps
must be taken to do this.”
He declared also govern
ment authorities must real
ize “we cannot possibly
place a new stock of oil re
serves on the counter at the
present prices for crude oil."
Buttram said drilling ac
tivities have declined 50 per
cent the last six months. He
warned that “we may soon
be called upon to supply
practically the entire oil
needs of the united nations
war effort from oil produced
in the United States.”

Requisition
All Tank Cars
For East
Washington, Sept. 3 (AP).
Petroleum Co-o r di n a t o r
Harold L. Ickes announced
today the government had
requisitioned from the mid
west and southwest all the
remaining rail tank cars
transporting gasoline there.
This might result in local
shortages for these areas,
he said, possibly requiring
rationing or some other
step to cut consumption.
The new requisition or
der, Ickes told his press
conference, was expected to
add around five thousand to
the 68 thousand cars that
last week delivered 823,260
barrels of oil daily to the
now - rationed 17 Atlantic
seaboard states and the
District of Columbia. * * *
