But petroleum’s full usefulness to man has been a matter of decades only. They have been wondrous years, those decades. Years that saw automobiles built by the millions because gasoline was available as a cheap source of power. Years that saw the oceans dwindle under the high speed of great ships powered by oil. Years that saw the evolution of a more comfortable living in homes warmed by oil and natural gas. Years that saw rubber, fibers, paints and many other useful items of everyday living produced from petroleum’s hydrocarbons. Years that saw the earth shrink under the wings of the airplane, and great wars decided by the avail ability of oil. Thus, the oil industry has led the way into the wondrous years of our time. The industry, through foresight, inge nuity, research, and risk-taking, has found and produced the oil required in greater quantity each year, has conserved oil for the future, has devised the transportation. systems that move oil economically, has built the refineries and plants that convert crude oil and natural gas to the hundreds of useful products needed by a growing United States. The Humble Company, founded in 1917, has participated in petroleum’s progress during four great decades, and has pioneered in the development of many current tech niques for finding, producing and refining oil. This week, with the industry. Humble invites you to consider the variety and extent of oil’s progress . . . Surely no other industry has contributed more to the making of modern America.
