Another fund of a like amount has been made avail- able by parliament for laboratory and road tests under. the supervision of a parliamentary. commission. Alcohol is available in France from sugar beets principally but it is plan- ned to develop other sources of sUpD- ly. So far it has not been found that there is any great economy in using alcohol but it is believed that, with increased use, the alcohol industry might produce at lower prices. The principal advantage sought in the national fuel, however, is independ- ence of foreign ofl supplies. During the war,there were at times danger- ous shortages of fuel for airplanes and automobiles. \ One of the problems to be solved is the effect of any new mixture on engines and their: lubrication. An- iother difficulty is the flecessity of jsome redesigning in motor construc- tion to get easy starting and the greatest. efficiency. Ice on Missouri .
