Phelan Report Calls Attention
Neglect of Situation in the
Mexican Area.
to
Washington, June 17. T. A. Phe
lan of the shipping board staff, urg
2S in his recent report, on the Mexi
::m oil situation transmitted to
Chairman Porter of the house foreign
affairs committee that since the
nroven oil field in Mexico "is fast go
ing into salt water," the American
government "eif her directly am by
co-operation with American capital
at once proceed immediately to de
velop oil iiehls" in that country, ad
ding: "That the potential production of
Mexico is almost unlimited is beyond
tuestie;n."
Mr. Phelan discusser, at length con
ditions in the present field and pre----i:ts
the following under the head of
"rer omme.ndation".
"Inasmuch as the consumption of
"ii in the United States increased
from 200.000.000 barrels to 500.000,
000 barrels in ten years, it is certain
that this country will have to de
pend upon foreign oil and princi
pally Mexican oil for fuel purposes
in the future.
"As the American merchant marine
is fast going into fuel oil, it is neces
sary that this supply be assured. This
means that the American government
enter directly and by co-operation
with American capital at once pro
ceed to develop oil fields in Mexico.
That the potential production of Mex
ico is almost unlimited is beyond
uuestion. but the proposition should
not be delayed until after the present
fields are exhausted. It takes years
of time and a fortune in money to de
eIop an oil field."

Lubricating oil must do two things enable the
engine to delier maximum power protect every
bearing and engaging part against wear.
The quick, complete combustion of ful ger.tvates maximum
power. But it requires a gas-tiht oil seal between piston
riruvs and cylinder walls to hold this power to itj work.
And to get maximum work every bearing and vi imaging part
must offer the least possible resistance to movement must
stay in perfect fit and alignment, cushioned against wear and
friction by a protective oil film.
Polarine meets every requirement. It maintains its body and
its lubricating qualities, practically unchanged, under all
weather and operating conditions. It assures full compression
and power gets the biggest mileage out of every gallon of
gasoline. It keeps down wear, prevents vibration, breakage
and big overhauling and repair expense.
Polarine is made in four grades light, medium heavy, heavy
and extra heavy but only one quality. Get the proper grade
for your car next time you buy clean -burning Hed Crown
Gasoline and you will start cutting down motoring costs.
