Demand Hl^di
In OH Products
The present demand for oil prdd-
ucts is higher than ever before in
history. The ability of the indnstry
to meet this unprei^ented demand
is strained not by lack of crude
oil in the ground, but by limita
tions of transportation and other
I acuities occurring largely as a re
sult of the war. Most oil companies
are having difficulty in meeti^ the
lull demands of their customers for
products. Such a situation usually
results tn an increase in product
prices which brings out added aup*
plies and tends to balance supply
snd demand. A number of price
Increases have recently taken
place. It is our opinion, however,
that under present conditions
where a short^e of fabricated
steel and other mateiials limits
the industry’s ability to produce,
transport and refine more crude
oil further price increases in either
crude or pr(0duct8 will not be ef
fective In increasing the overall
supply of petroleum products. We
feel that such price Increases
would only be inflationary and
should be resisted.
Standard Oil company of New
Jersey believes so strongly that
further increases in the. price of
crude oil or products under present
conditions are not tn the best In
terest of either the oil industry or
the public, that it is following the
general policy of not increasing
prices unless such increases will
tend to maintain or bring out ad
ditional supplies. As is the case
with most other oil companies, the
products of Standard Oil company
of New Jersey reach the consumer
pripcipally through dealers and dis
tributors and the company believes
that Us “Hold The Line" price pol
icy ba| not worked a hardship on
these Independent businessmen
who handle Esso products. We are
continuing to share our available
snppliM squitably with all our
onstomert.
