Rockefeller Walks to Church Saving Gas for War Effort
In Tarrytown on Sunday November 11 John D Rockefeller walked a mile to the Pocantico Hills Union church, choosing to hoof it rather than ride his 12 cylinder limousine. Witnesses say the scene showed a rich man sharing in common sacrifice for the war as seven million gallons of fuel were saved by the Fuel Administrator's order.
