FOGGY SAILING . . .
FRANKFURT, Germany (/P> —
A barge captain and his pilot,
accused of being fogged by al
cohol when their craft collided
with a tanker, were acquitted of
any wrong doing. The judge ruled
that “in our penal code there is
nothing said about drunken sail

There are still six million U.S.
homes that don’t have a television
set. Even so, there are more homes
that have TV than have bathtubs.

Everything
in this picture
(except the smile)
comes from oil
The planter, the upholstery, the
table, the floor covering... even the
decorative fruit.
For oil today is being put to work
in more than 400 new ways each
year — in plastics, synthetic fibers,
detergents, paints, insecticides,
agricultural and garden plant foods.
The future?
Standard’s scientists, who pioneered
many of these developments, predict
an entirely new world of oil prod
ucts in the next ten years...creating
new industries and new jobs.
Jimmy could grow up to live in a
house made almost entirely of oil
based plastics . . . siding, roofing,
door and window frames, even the
windows. He will probably drive a
car with a super-strong plastic body,
over highways made of plastic and
asphalt.
New products, of course, are not the
only reason why, by 1971, the use of
oil will be about half again as great
as it is today.
Oil and natural gas will be supplying
90% of all the heat, power and
mechanical energy used in the West
.. . Western transportation systems,
automobiles, homes and industries
are increasing at a faster rate than
in any other area of the country.
Standard will invest $50 million this
year alone in the expansion of our
petrochemical facilities ... another
$350 million will be expended on other
phases of our Company’s growth.
planning ahead to serve you better
