LAGO INVESTS FLS. 1,000,000 IN ARUBA'S PROGRESS


This year Lago's Scholarship Foundation broke througn
the Fls. 1,000,000 barrier invested in Aruba's progress
through education.
In celebrating their tenth anniversary the Foundation
announced 49 grants totaling Fls. 170,450 have been
awarded to aspiring young men and women. Seven of the
new students are sons and daughters of present Lago
employees. Four are children of annuitants.
This brings the total aided by the Foundation to 239
young men and women and more than Fls. 1,000,000 spent
in the last decade. Twenty-two of these students will
begin their first year of higher learning this fall. The
rest of the scholarship grants are renewals for those al-


ready attending a university or college.
Six of the new students will begin studying in the
United States, one in Puerto Rico, and 15 in Holland.
Each student who completes four years of university
study represents an average of between Fls. 10,000 and
Fls. 20,000 of Lago Scholarship Foundation assistance.
This money pays for tuition, books and supplies, travel-
ing expenses, room and board, clothing, laundry and
personal expenses.
The Foundation's purpose is to make financial grants
to Arubans seeking degrees in the arts and sciences and
technical and vocational training that will contribute to
Aruba's well being.


Some of the Foundation's new students have parents
who work for Lago. The parents are: W. W. Hazel Lago
Commissary, V. C. Figaroa Mechanical Department, E.
Oduber Process Department, O. L. Richardson Process
Department, M. C. Pinas Process Department and P. G.
Brook Comptroller's Department.
E Charles, a beginning LSF student, is a Lago em-
ployee working in the Mechanical Department. However,
this fall he will be studying in the United States under
the Lago Educational Leave of Absence policy.
Several students starting school this fall are the child-
ren of Lago annuitants. The annuitants are: Z. de Kort,

Visit U.S.A. Millions Do It Yearly
In the shrinking world of this modern Jet Age, more and
more people are finding it possible to visit the United States
every year. A report on world wide travel taken from "Common
Ground" magazine issued by KLM substantiates this fact.
It states that in 1965 a remarkable total of over a million bus-
iness and pleasure seekers from overseas traveled to the U.S.
This is a gain of 101.5% over the total of 1961, when the joint
government-industry "Visit U.S.A." program was launched.
The United Kingdom with 174,863 of the year's visitors con-
tinues to be the largest single source of overseas travelers to
the U.S. Other countries with more than 35.000 visitors are West
Germany, France, Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Japan and
Italy. Visitors coming from the Netherlands totaled 24,849.
In addition to visitors from overseas, there were 383,771 arri-
vals from Mexico during 1965, an increase of almost 95'; over
the total of 1961. It is estimated that over six million tourists
came from Canada last year.
The United States Travel Service and the travel industry are
increasing efforts to induce more foreigners to visit the U.S. The
travel industry is seeking to identify points of interest through-
out the country at various times of the year.

E articulo ta bisa cu na 1965 e notable total di mas cu un mil-
jon di hende di ultramar cu ta busca negoshi of placer, a biaha
bai Merca. Esaki ta un aumento di 101.5% ariba e total di anja
1961, den cual anja e program conhunto di gobierno y di indus-

If Leonardo Had Not Been Right, What

Would Today's Airplanes Look Like?
Approximately 12% of Lago's petroleum output goes toward
the production of aviation fuel. This is 20 million barrels per
year of twelve different grades of aviation fuel.

ing aviation fuel market. This production of aviation fuel would

Future Avionnan Ta Priminti Di Trece

Hopi Mas Bende di Comustible pa Jet
"Mester di tecnologia nobo di refinacion pa nos por satisface
demand creciendo pa combustible di jet, cual lo acompanja
introduction di avionnan supersonico y e avionnan cu nan ta
jama "jumbo jet", asina un cientista di petroleo a bisa reciente-


mente.
Segun W. G. Dudek, un cien-
tista di Esso Research & En-
gineering Company kende ta
trahando riba combustible y
lubricante pa aeroplano jet,
combustible pa jet ta creciendo
cu un velocidad much mas
grand cu e otro productonan
di petroleo, y den cierto parti
di mundo hasta tin escasez di
combustible pa jet awendia. E
ta pronostica cu durante mas o
menos cinco anjanan proximo,
demand lo bira casi dobbel dia
e promer jetnan supersonico y
e jetnan jumbo cuminza bula.
E consuma total di combus-
tible pa jet den mundo liber
awor ta na un promedio di 50
miljon galon cada dia. Pa 1973,
consume diario ta ser calculi
di ta casi 100 miljon galon pa
dia.
Lago su entreganan di com-
bustible pa jet tabata 1,393,000
tonelada metrica na 1963,
1,678,000 tonelada na 1964 y
1,646,000 tonelada na 1965.
Pa produci combustible di
mihor calidad pa jetnan, Lago
a instala secadornan di salu y
instalacion pa trata e combus-
tible cu klei na cuminzamento
di 1965.
Aeroplano jet, y mas specifi-
camente e aeroplanonan super-
sonico y jetnan jumbo, lo causa
tecnica nobo di fabricacion mes-
cos cu automobilnan a haci 50
anja pasa.
Combustible pa Jet
E parti principal di combus-
tible pa jet ta kerosin. Zeta
crudo, depend di cual parti di
mundo e ta bini, tin un conte-
nido di kerosin di 1 te 10 por-
ciento. Promedio ta 12 porcien-
to. E contenido di kerosin den
crudo cu Lago ta usa ta varia
di 10 te 15 porciento.
No tur e 12 porciento ey ta
disponibel pa traha combus-
tible pa jetnan, pasobra tin
otro product tambe cu tin mes-
ter kerosin pa traha nan. Kero-
sin ta worde usi den combus-
tible pa keinta espacio, pa com-
bustible usA pa kienta kas, y pa
mayor parti den combustible pa
motor diesel.
Consumo di combustible di
jetnan subsonico y supersonico
ta mustra un gran diferencia.
Jetnan regular cu velocidad
maxima di 600 milja pa ora por
bula di New York te Londres
(3,540 milja distancia) den 6
ora y 45 minuut usando 13,000
galon di combustible (Si esey
tabata gasoline, anto e cantidad
lo ta suficiente pa duna un don-
jo di auto promedio suficiente
gasoline pa e usa 20 anja largu).


E promer avion supersonico,
cual to bula na un velocidad di
Mach 2.2 (esta 2.2 bez veloci-
dad di zonido igual na 1,450
milja pa ora) lo haci vuelo en-
tre New York y Londres den 3
ora, pero lo e usa 18,000 galon
di combustible. E avionnan aki
lo por hiba pasahero den servi-
cio regular na anja 1971 of
1972.
Avionnan supersonico di fu-
turo cu lo por bula na un velo-
cidad cu ta tres bez of mas ve-
locidad di zonido lo bula entire
New York y Londres den 2 ora
y mei. Nan lo usa 35,000 galon
di combustible, casi dos bez
mas cu e promer avionnan su-
personico. E avionnan superso-
nico aki di e "sigiente genera-
cion" lo por ta den servicio na
1980.
Bao di condicionnan di awen-
dia, ta tuma 2 ora y 20 minuut
pa un plant di Lago pa traha
e 70,000 galon necesaro pa un
vuelo ida y vuelta di 5 ora
entire New York y Londres cu
un di e futureo" avionnan su-

On his next vacation this Sep-
tember, Mr. Hedlund intends to
visit the Far East.
Mr. Carroll joined Lago as a
junior apprentice "B" in the
Mechanical Department in July,
1948. During his employment
Mr. Carroll had four breaks in
service. In January, 1962, he
was re-employed as an engineer
in the Technical Department.
That same year he transferred
to Process. Advancing through
the ranks in the Process Depart-
ment he became technical as-
sistant in Process-L.O.F., the
position he held before his re-
cent promotion.
A graduate in chemical en-
gineering from the University
of Colorado, Mr. Carroll spent
three and a half years in the
U.S. Army Chemical Corps as
an officer. He also worked as
production supervisor at a fluid
coke plant with FMC Corp.
At Lago Mr. Carroll worked
one year as contact engineer in
the Acid and Edeleanu Plant,
two years as technical assistant
in the L.O.F. Department and
two in the Refining Division.
Mr. Carroll also worked as a
Summer Training student at
Lago for four summers during
high school and college. He is
married and has two children.
