Oil Settles Street Dust
Last Saturday the city started
oiling the streets, having com
pleted repairing the storage tank
on which they have been work
ing for several days.
According to Councilman Pete
Reader, the city now has enough
oil to keep the streets in good
condition for several years, due to
the generosity of the U. S. Smelt
ing Cd., through their manager,
Carl Glavinovich, who have do
nated over 80,000 gallons of old
oil which was pumped out of the
company tanks to make room for
the new supply which is ,enroute.
Through the courtesy of O. S,
Weaver of the Northern Light and
Power, a tank has been loaned
the city for the storage of the oil.
The only cost the city has had,
was the repair of the tank and
placing it on a firm foundation.
Mayor Jones expressed relief
that the oil has already made a
big improvement and his phone
doesn’t ring with complaints of
the women of the community who
can now hang out their clothes
and keep their homes dusted, as
well as wheel their youngsters
down the street and enjoy the
«
summer sunshine.
The mayor expressed gratifica
tion that there are public minded
citizens in our community who,
through their cooperation and
thoughtfulness, made it possible
for the city to take advantage of
the use of this oil.

“What's this Integration'
they're attacking you for?"
One of the complaints that a certain minority
in this country is now making about big companies
like Standard Oil Company of California is that
they practice “integration”. This word is made to
sound so evil that you may wonder what it means
as it9s used in this case.
The fact is that integration is common in
American businesses both large and small.
They use it as a natural part of their system of
increasing efficiency, cutting costs and improving
products. Integration doesn’t make a good com
pany bad. To understand integration at a glance,
look at this parallel:
A fisherman takes his boat onto the ocean and
makes his catch. Standard discovers oil and brings
it up out of the ground. If both then sell to some
body else—the fisherman to a buyer at wharfside,
and Standard to a buyer at the well—there’s no
integration. Suppose each takes the next step ...
If the fisherman now carries his cleaned catch
to the market-place, he is further integrated, for
he is now also in the transportation business...
as is Standard when we operate our own pipelines
and tankers to carry oil from well to refinery, or
refined products to areas where they’ll be used.
When the fisherman cleans his own fish, he
has become an integrated business. So, too,
Standard. Like him, we work to put the product
into the form you want. We refine the crude oil
we produce — turn it into gasoline, lubricants,
chemicals. This is the practice of integration.
And if the fisherman then sells his product
through a store of his own, he completes his inte
gration. Standard does it, too, through Company
owned stations (about 1 in 7 stations where
Chevron gasolines are sold). Integration helpii
companies do better for you and the nation.
I’d Like to Know.. • Many people write to Standard asking
pertinent questions about the Company. We answer all letters individually,
but some points seem of general interest. We take this way of discussing
•' them for everyone. If you have a question, we urge you to write in care of:
