LV) A romance of big business in which one of the fondest dreams of the late J. Odgen Armour came true, waa revealed to day with the announcement that the controlling interest of the Universal Oil Products companv had been sold for $25,000,000 of which S5.216.053 went to Ogden's widow, Mrs.

Lolita Sheldon Armour. The Shell Union Oil company and the Standard Oil company of California were the purchasers. The deal involved 1,000 shares of the Universal company, which sponsored the Dubbs oil cracking process, in which Mr. Armour invested $3,000,000 to $4,000,000. He always had faith that it would yield a profit, but he died in London without the dream being realized.

Widow Receives Shares Mrs. Armour received her share of the purchase price for 400 shares of stock in the Universal company, which was a part of her husband's estate and which his creditors at one time had refused to accept aa a valuable asset. A year ago the Armour estate was closed In probate court, showing an insolvency of $1,805,000 which -was a sad contrast to the $150,000,000 Armour was reputed to have been worth in moneyed war times. 'I guess this shows," Mrs. Armour said last night, "that Mr.

Armour was justified in backing that inventor's process. And those bankers who called my stock a liability, well. I can laugh now at them the same as they laughed at the stock." Gets Scant Attention The beginning of the romance was back in 1909 in a dinky chemical laborvry in a small oil field in Pennsylvania, vrhere Jesse A. Dubbs had been experimenting with a means of producing gasoline from crude oil by the cracking process. He went to California, and a few oil company heads into whose oCicra he talked his way, paid him scant at tention.

In 1914. however, Dubbs got a hearing from Armour and his 'Chicago associate, R. J. Dunham, both of whom had gone to California. The result was the formation of the Universal Oil Products company.
