WIRED FOR THIEVES
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M. UP)—
Any thief who tides to take the
hubcaps from a car belonging to
Eldo McLaughlin of Albuquerque
is in for a surprise.
McLaughlin has not only wired
his hubcaps with a stiff electrical
jolt but has rigged a device to
shock anyone who tries to open the
doors, the hood or the trunk.
And if the circuit is interfered
with at all, the horn begins to blow.
I did not whistle at her.
I whistled because the
dress she is wearing

Man’s use of petroleum — of oil and natural gas — began
before the first records of history.
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.
