dustrv to support all agencies of the State Govern-
ment, including schools, old age assistance, and
welfare institutions, totaled $IT0 million in 1954,
more than a third of all the taxes collected by the
State. And, in addition, the industry pays millions
in other taxes to counties, school districts, and
municipalities.
ImJired profits are esen greater. Industry
employees receive and spend about $850 million
a year; royalty and lease payments to landowners
add up to $500 million. Most of this money passes
promptly into trade channels.
As a result, you'll find oil dollars on every
balance sheet in Texas and in every hank acvounr,
including your own.

The tl'ief profit from the production of oil

the mi ice you cover with sour iar.,. in heat for
your home... in die usefulness of articles made
from petroleum hydrocarbons ... in the power
that moves long trains across the continent and
turns the wheels of the large industrial plants.
Tbit profit Texans share with all Amcff
ieans. It is reflected in the American standard of 1
living, which is the world's highest; and it pro-
vides a dividend of national sveutity, because a
well developed, cfluicntly operated petrolct
industry is one of the major
resources in the U. S. arsenal
for national defense.
