Donovan Makes

Awards to Two
An employee who never had a
single deductible absence in thirty
work years and another who gave
up sea duty for the security of a
job on shore were guests of honor
at a special management staff meet-
ing Aug. 9. At the meeting, Charles
F. H gocs and William R. A. vMaas-
jar.m2, both Process Department
empljyces, we-e presented service
:.rtificates and emblems for having
attained thirty years of company em-
ployment. The awards were presented
by F. C. Donovan, acting general su-
perintendent.
In relating both service and per-
sonal histories of the two long-serv-
Ice men, K. E. Springer, acting proc-
ess department superintendent, said
that `Mr. Hughes, an operator in
Prooess-Utilities, had never missed
a day's work unauthorized in thirty
years. He added that Mr. Hughes
had been eligible for his thirty-y2ar
award ir July. As he was the only
July recipient, Mr. Hughes elected
to wait until the August awards.
'He waited until he could have a
little company," Mr. Springer quip-
ped.

Job On Shore
"Mr. Maasdamme had several per-
iods of employment with the Esso
Transportation Company," Mr. Sprin-
ger continued, "before he found the
security he wanted in a job on shore.
After ie joined Light Oils Finishing,
he never had a single deductible ab-
sense."
In offering the two thirty-year men
congratulations on the part of him-
self and Lago management, Mr. Do-
novan told them that their thiri'y
years of service was a milestone in
their careers. "From the point of
view of thirty-year employment
spans, Lago is a relatively new com-
pany. Because of this, there are not
many thirty year employees. Achiev-
ing such long service is a high honor.
Each of us in his own way makes
his contributions to the company,
and I'm sure each of you gentlemen

Thousands Own Jersey
A recent article in the Esso Manhattan, a publication for Esso em-
ployees in New York City, revealed that there are 9000 shareholders
of Standard Oil Company (N.J.) stock located in more than ninety
foreign countries. It went on to say that many times Jersey Standard
has been referred to by the general public as the company owned by
the Rockefeller family or others.
It might have been true in the past, but it is untrue today. No one
owns more than three per cent.
At the end of 1960, accounts registered on the stock books totaled
665,176 with shares held chiefly by individuals, but also by estates,
trusts, universities, mutual funds, pension funds, insurance companies
and brokers, the article stated. It said that single accounts, such as
Thrift Fund or a large brokerage firm, represent thousands of ad-
ditional individuals.
About two out of three shareholders own fewer than 100 shares, and
the largest account, an institution, holds less than three per cent of the
outstanding stock.
Americans own the biggest share of Jersey Standard. They live in
every one of the fifty states. The largest group lives in New York and
the smallest number live in Alaska.
Despite what non-democratic groups would like others to believe, no
one small group or family owns major U.S. industrial giants. They,
like Jersey Standard, are owned by thousands upon thousands of every-
day people from all walks of life, of all races, religions and creeds. The
benefits, dividends and the like, that are realized from such investments
- the profits are shared by people everywhere who have faith in
the industrial know-how of Jersey Standard's executives and the free-
enterprise system. No one person owns Jersey Standard; no one person
reaps all the benefits of the company.


Hopi Ta Donjo di Jersey
Un articulo cu a worde public recientemente den e periodic Esso
Manhattan, un publication destiny pa empleadonan di Esso na ciudad
New York, a revela cu tin 9000 accionista di Standard Oil Company
(New Jersey) biba den mas cu 90 pais estranhero. E articulo ta con-
tinua bisando cu hopi bez public en general ta refer na Jersey Stand-
ard como e compania cu ta propiedad di famia Rockefeller of di otro
persona.
Kizas den pasado esey por tabata berdad, pero awendia esey no ta
berdad. Ningun persona ta donjo di mas cu 3C/ di accionnan.
Na fin di 1960, cuentanan registra den buki di accion tabata mustra
untotal di 665,176, cu mayor parti di accionnan den poder di persona-
nan particular, pero tambe na number di boedel, fideicomiso, universi-
dad, fondo mutual, fondo di pension, companianan di aseguro y cor-
redornan; asina e articulo ta bisa. E ta bisa cu cierto cuentanan, ma-
nera un Thrift Fund of un oficina grand di corredor, ta represent
algun mil di personanan individual.
Mas of menos dos di cada tres accionista ta donjo di menos cu 100
action, y e cuenta mas grand cual ta un institution ta donjo di
menos cu 3% di accionnan cu ta den man di public.
Americanonan ta donjo di e parti mas grand di accionnan di Jersey
Standard. Nan ta biba den cada un di e 50 estadonan di Merca. E grupo
mas grand ta biba na New York, y e grupo mas chikitu na Alaska.
A despecho di lo cual gruponan socialist lo desea pa personanan
cu inclinacion democratic kere, ningun grupo chikito of ningun famia
ta donjo di e gigantenan industrial di America. E companianan cy,
manera Jersey Standard, tin como donjo miles y miles di personanan
comun di tur gruponan di bida, di tur raza, religion y credo.

'Thank You' Note
SFrom U.S. Visitor
S As the Public Relations Depart-
a ment's tour leader, Sev Luydens is
t Mr. Lago to the thousands of Aruba
- residents and island visitors he has
d guided through the refinery.
One of the most appreciative let-
ters he received was from a member
of the Desk & Derrick Club who
toured Lago during the club's June
19-20 visit to Aruba. From Anne
Turk, an employee of Standard Oil
Company (New Jersey) in New York
City, the note said that she enjoyed
the interesting refinery tour and that
the size of Lago refinery was most
impressive. "We were amazed at all
that you were able to show us m
such a short time. Your presentation
was enjoyable and we were appre-
ciative of the opportunity to lean
so much from you about Aruba and
it- people."
Miss Turk went on to say that the
gioup found Aruba to be one of the
most appealing islands of those they
visited in the Caribbean The friend-
liness and sincerity of the people and
the natural beauty of the island make
- it such an inviting vacation spot.

I Lago Morning Tours


Taken bq Educators
Several hundred island educators recently were given a com-
prehensive picture of Lago through guided tours and brief lect-
ures. Aug. 7 through 11 was tour week for school teachers from
all over Aruba. They attended morning refinery visits in groups
up to sixty-five.
Gathering point was the Esso Club where hot coffee awaited
visitors after which they were given a brief orientation on
Lago by M. E. Fisk, acting superintendent of Service and Staff
Departments.
Before the teachers split into two groups to board buses for
a complete refinery tour. Mr Fisk told them how Lago fits into
the world petroleum picture and what Lago is, what it is doing
and what it consists o-.
Mr. Fisk explained Lago's role as an export refinery and its
relationship with Standard Oil Company (New Jersey), the
parent organization. Lago, he said, with a throughput of 440,000
barrels a day, is an export refinery because its products must
b2 sent elsewhere in the world. "The Aruba market is small. In
one day, Lago produces Aruba's requirements for an entire
year We have to find markets throughout the free world," he
explained.
With more and more small refineries being put into operation
in countries the world over, he went on, Lago has had to face
stiffer competition. This called for Lago to build in more flexi-
(Contnuefd on pUntr' 7i


VISITORS HEAR Mr. Fisk describe Lago's place in the world petrol-
eum business, above, and give a physical description of Lago, what it's
doing and what it consists of. Coffee was served before each tour on
the Esso Club's South Loggia.

THE CRACKIMN Plant, left, was visited on foot as were the general shops, TSD-Laborato-
ries and naphtha fractionation units. All tours ended at Lago High School where R. E. Mor-

Representation


SIGNATURES ARE affixed to notar-
ized election results by D. Maduro,
left, vice president of the PWFA, and
F. H. Ritfeld, right, president of the
IOWUA's provisional board. The con-
test to determine who would repres-
ent Lago employees was adjudged fair
by officials of both workers' organi-
zations. With eyes on the clock, mem-
bers of Aruba's press corps, center,
await election results in the Adminis-
tration Building at Lago.

Pictured on this page are high-
lights of Aug. 1 and 2 election
activities at Lago when the In-
dependent Oil Workers Union of
Aruba polled a majority of votes
cast at five voting locations.
There was a flurry of excite-
ment mid-evening Aug. 2 when
election officials announced that
the IOWUA had polled 1680 votes
and that the Petroleum Workers
Federation of Aruba was second
with 1384 votes. No representation
was the desire of eighty-three em-
ployees. Election results were tab-
ulated by an independent public
accounting firm and certified by a
notary public.

islands with four of the latest high-
speed Gilbarco pumps. Underground
storage tanks hold a total of 8080
gallons of regular and premium fuel.
Each pump island has a regular and
premium pump. This area is well
lighted for evening operations. The
station will be open from 7 a.m. un-
til 10 p m.
Enclosed under one roof in the
servicenter itself are an office and
tire repair area, storage room for
Atlas products, lubrication bay and
wash and wax bay. Two vehicles can
be handled in the latter area. Three
washrooms, for men and women and
station personnel, have also been in-
cluded in the layout.
Two shifts of five attendants each
will serve Esso and Atlas customers.
Station manager is Jan Vrolijk. Mr.
Croes, who recently finished a train-
ing course for Esso dealers, and Mr.
Vrolijk are training their personnel.
The operation represents a FIs.
50,000 investment. Lago's investment
is limited to pumps, storage tanks
and the big Esso sign which are rent-
ed to the owner. Marketing Division
coordinated the installation of Aruba's
sixth Esso Servicenter with the help
of TSD-Engineering and S. E. L.
Maduro & Sons, Esso and Atlas
wholesaler.
The new operation will increase
Aruba's sales of Esso and Atlas
products and will particularly prov-
ide more convenient service facilities
for those living in the Santa Cruz
area. Aruba's first Esso Servicentel,
Viana's in San Nicolas, was opened in
1940. Successive openings were Schol-
ten's (originally Ruiz's) in 1949,
Oduber's in 1952, Arend's in 1955 and
Frank Croes in 1956.

Letter to Lago

From French Lad

Has Odd Address
Imagine you're a French lad of
thirteen with the pluck to write to a
far-off refinery in your rather lim-
ited English and you address your
correspondence to "Manager's office
of the Refinery of Aruba, Venezuela.
South America."
Such a lad exists. His name is
Pierre Fafournoux, a student of the
College of Juilly, Juilly-Seine et
Marne-France. He said that he is ,n-
terested in the refining of petroleum
and would like booklets about refin-
ing operations. "I thank you before-
hand," he wrote. After also request-
ing photographs of the refinery, he
concluded, "I send to you my dis-
tinguished greetings."
Needless to say the polite young
Frenchman's letter was delivered to
Lago in spite of the confusing ad-
dress. The Public Relations Depait-
ment has fulfilled the requests of
this fan in France.
