Why shouldn’t we be proud when we are a part of one of the world’s greatest industrial organizations? And when the people of Whiting say that they are a part of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) they mean it in more than one sense, for a very large part of the stock of the company is held by its employees. With a liberal stock purchasing plan in effect and a system ot industrial relations that works, the Stanolind family is indeed a very happy one. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is a model industry. Besides spending millions of dollars in carrying on research work for the purpose of finding new and higher values in crude oil and hiring the best trained and most experienced men as executives, the company spends a great deal of money on the welfare of its employees. I his welfare work includes the following: a safety department, a well equipped hospital in each plant, convenient transportation for the employees, and such recreational features as athletic associations, bands, etc. Rewards for service include: a two-week vacation with pay each year, a pension plan, a death benefit plan, and employees’ stock purchasing plans.
