1. America's petroleum industries pour out fuel and lubricants for the United Nations. The depth of a modern oilwell in the U.S. Southwest is indicated by the height of the steel oil derrick and the "stack" of drill sections suspended from the derrick's top, ready for use one at a time as the hole drilled for oil goes deeper and the drill stem, on which the cutting-bit works, must be extended. One stem-section from the "stack" has already been picked up by the giant pulley and cable for lowering into the hole to extend the drill stem. Oilwells such as these are sometimes drilled to a depth of two or three miles (4.8 kilometers) under the ground to tap a rich oil deposit. More and more wells are being drilled today in the U.S., as the oil industry strives to supply the enormous demand of the armed forces of the U.S. and other United Nations for oil to lubricate and gasoline to propel planes and mechanized equipment of battle
