SCIENTISTS DEMONSTRATE HOW FUNGI ADD TO WEALTH OF U. S. Trained Microbes Make Lemon Juice and Hat Cleaner From Ordinary Sugar Cincinnati, 0., Sept. 9.—(4)—Arti- ficial lemon juice made of cane Sugar by a fungus was reported to the American ‘Chemical society today. as the latest feat of a new industry which uses molds, fungt, ferments and acteria to replace machines and fhu- man hands. 7 Sclentists’told how to catch a bactl- lus ‘or a fufhgus and train him or her. Far from being preposterous, they said, the idea started when man first made alcohol, and recently has grown so fast that today it adds hundreds of millions of dollars annually to Amer- fean commerce. This saga of the “microscopic workmen” was related at the first general session of the society tn @ symposium on industrial fer- mentation. Illustrating the versatility of a properly managed fungus, Dr. H. T. Herrick and O. E. May of the United States bureau of chemistry and soils at Washington, described the new lemon juice fungus. When placed on cane suger in a shallow pan, they said, and fed the Proper amount of nitrogen, he makes citric acid, the essential of lemon Juice., He does it so cheaply that one American concern is manufacturing the acid by this method. But feed this fungus a little more nitrogen, and instead of lemon flavor he produces oxalic acid, the well known hat cleaner.

Soldiers of the Dominican Guardia, with United States sailors standing by, suppressed a food riot yesterday at one of the wharves where relief supplies were being unloaded from the United States destroyer-mine sweeper Grebe. More than 100 persons watched un- til the supplies had been placed on the wharf and then rushed the labor- ers. Soldiers held off the rioters while speakers assured the crowds the rations would be distributed as soon as possible. Most of the crowd had not had a meal since Wednes- day, when the hurricane struck the city. While considerable food has been brought for relief purposes by the steamships Ruth Lykes and Cather- ine and the Grebe from Porto Rico, and in the steamship Tryton’s cargo of rice from Europe the amount has been little compared to what is need- ed. Lack of water has become almost as distressing a problem as lack of food, but an aqueduct has been re- paired for bringing water from inland sources. A survey shows that more than 1,200 seriously injured patients are receiving treatment in 13 hospitals and impromptu first aid stations in the ¢ity. Many of them suffer from ous infectioris. The loss of life has been so great no effort to report deaths to a cen- tral office has been made. Cremation still continues. ENCOURAGING REPORT | GIVEN BY OFFICER Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Sept. 9.—(>) —Commander John Beverly Pollard of the medical department of the United States navy, commanding the field hospital of the first brigade of marines, returned today’ from Santo Domingo with encouraging reports of the hurricane situation. Commander Pollard asserted that no epidemic existed in the stricken city but the necessity of sending in surgical dressings immediately and in unlimited quantity was most urgent. Otherwise, he advised, practically all of the injured will develop infections. The Cuban gunboat Patria, with more doctors, nurses and medicine was due at Santo Domingo today. The Cuban unit of 25 doctors, sperat- ing in the temporary base hospital, up to yesterday had treated more than 1,000 injured and performed 100 emergency major operations. Hurricane warnings in the Carib- bean today created apprehension in the Haitian capital. The steamship Ancon of the Panama Line, bound for the Canal Zone, anchored in the har- bor here awaiting more favorable weather reports. ‘The warnings were issued late yes- terday. It was reported the tropical disturbance probably would pass south fof Haiti. Harvey Farmer Killed In Tractor Accident (Tribune Special Service) Harvey, N.

INSURANCE MEN LOOK FOR LICENSING OF ALL CAR DRIVERS Federation Considers Possibility of Such Law Coming Up in Legislature Possibilty of legislation affecting the insurance business coming up in the coming legislative session was | f; considered at the meeting of the North Dakota Insurance Federation at the Patterson hotel Monday. The main prospect considered was @ car driving license. Ascending automobile tragedies were cited by ‘Walter Belson, Detroit, editor of the Insurance Federation News, as call- ing for enactment by North Dakota of @ law of this character. Jt would require tests as to driving ability and would weed out drivers whose capac- ity is impaired by inability to read signs or distinguish colors correctly, or who in other ways menace the safety of the public on the highways.
