‘Honestly, now
aren’t gasoline
prices too high??
Everyone who can remember what things used
to cost only ten or twenty years ago may well think
of those times as “the good old days.” Recalling them,
and the extreme bargains offered during the depres
sion, people have asked Standard such questions as
“Honestly, now—aren’t gasoline prices too high?”
in answer to a question like that, Standard asks
you to consider the broad situation. All prices
should be kept as low as possible. But in judging
what’s “too high,” let’s see what’s happened:
19Zb 19S1

Price comparisons—1926 and 1951
Let’s look back on those “good old days”—to
1926, a fairly normal year. Since then, most prices
have varied greatly. By 1951, farm products cost
over twice as much as in 1926, groceries and cloth
ing about two-thirds more. But in 1951, gasoline
HOW nave gas prices been kept from getting
“too high”? Partly through improvement >n refin
ing methods, developed by big companies’ reseai
We‘ i learned to get more gas out of every barrel
of crude. (And it’s better gas; 2 gallons now do
work that took 3 only 25 years ago.)
costs almost as little as it did in 1926—- actually up
less than 4%, except for taxes, now to 8i a gal
lon in the West. Most people’s income has gone up
enough in those years so that gasoline takes a far
smaller share of their budget. So gasoline today—
far from being “too high”—is an exceptionally
good buy. See how and why this has come about—
WHY have gas prices been kept from getting
“too high”? Because there’s intense competition.
To stay in business, all oil companies are always
looking for ways to cut costs of producing, trans
porting, refining, and marketing. We keep finding
them, passing benefits on to you.
