These were at one time parts of the original Standard Oil Co., which muckrakers flayed as a trust, which President Roosevelt castigated, which dissolved in 1911 when William Howard Taft was President of the U. S. The present corporations are separate, one from the others. Each one counts its yearly profits in the millions. Last week the officers of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey announced that their profits for the year 1926 had been $117,652,201.
