Process for Supplanting Cotton Is Claimed in Britain. By Science Service. BIRMINGHAY, England, Septem- ber 3.—The secret of turning tropical grasses and other fibrous substances into clothes to wear is believed to have been solved by Dr. Dinshaw Nanji of Birmingham University. Chemical processes are sald to have been per- fected for separating the fibers from the raw inaterials and preparing them for spinning. The fabries. if commer- cially successful, may take the place of cotton in the regions where large supplies of grasses are avaflable. It is thought that new and interesting materials may be developed for wear- ing apparel and for other uses ‘nthsr eiephant of the herd still FLYERS’ PATRON SAINT CONSECRATED N LISBON “Our Lady of the Air,” Image of the Virginia Mary, Installed in Aviation Camp Chapel. By the Associated Press LISBON, Portugal, September 3.-— “Our Lady of the Air" has been in- stalled and consecrated as the patron saint of the aviators of Portugal. It is a beautiful image of the Virgin Ma with arms uplifted toward | heaven, and it stands in a tiny chapel, erected for it in the Cintra aviation camp. The ceremonies of installation and consecration were performed in the presence of Cardinal Bello, head of the Catholic Church in Portugal, rep- resentatives of the government and several members of the diplomatic corps. ‘The image is not the anclent one sung by Portugese poets, which for many hundreds of years has stood on the worm-eaten altar, in a small chapel among the Sierras of north Portugal. The aviators desired to bring this ancient statue to thelr camp, but/the people in the villages in the mountains, armed with pick- axes, scythes and sticks, surrounded the chapel and had the alarm sound- ed from the belfries of all churches for miles around.
