Show NEW TYPE OF GASOLINE NOT A 'DISCOVERY' The now Toxnco gasoline, announced an-nounced b.v officials of The Texas Company, is not n "discovery," says Ii. C. Holmes, president, lint rather a result of a gradual and Important Import-ant development In refinery pro- cesses and practices wnicu the company to produce a product more nearly meeting the ideal requirements re-quirements of a motor gasoline without too great a sacrifice in yield or production. Mr. Holmes states that the Ilolmcs-Manley process, pro-cess, while revolutionizing certain phases of gasoline production, is merely the direct result of long and painstaking efforts to produce economically eco-nomically an improved grade of gasoline of better volatility. Such a gasoline must necessarily have, and does have, a pronounced improvement im-provement in distillation range. The initial boiling point is between 90 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit and the end point under 400, or between 30 and 40 degrees better than government gov-ernment specification. |
