SCIENGE PRODUCES KICKLESS ALGOHOL Chemists Learn Product of | Petroleum Has Deadening Effect on Humans. By the Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 29 cohol without any exhiliarat produced as an incident in th ment of a new chemical indust: described herr yesterday on the ev n( ~An al- | Prof. James F. Norris, former presi- dent of the society and director of e | chemical research laboratories of the | Massachusetts Insitute of Technologs. | told of the industry, and also of the { substance, Is Product of Petroleum. This alcohol, entirely different from | the brands that man has known well | for &0 many thousands of vears, is a | product of petroleum, one of the first results obtained from research that aims at using oil wastes as a raw ma- terial to make all sorts of useful things, in addition to Jubricants and gasoline. Chemists, said Dr. Norris, already have produced the alcohol under the name of isopropyl. They are now study- ing it actively to extend its industrial applications, especially to find out whether it can be substituted for grain i or, Plh vl alcohol. s substance lelkdI other aico- hnls said Dr. Norris. “Its physiologoical effect on human beings is different. It produces no exhiliarting, but has a deadening effect. If it can be developed sufficiently it may enable us to get away from that now large section of bootlegging that lives by rectifying de- natured alcohols. For not only are bootleggers ignorant of any way to rec- | tify this substance, but if they did it | would fail to have the desired effects in a beverage “We are now at the' beginning of | use of former wastes of petroleum as raw material. Chemists are experi- | menting in taking rather cheap sub- stances from these wastes and conv ing them into things of considerabl value. thereby increasing wealth. T| think it can be shown our present prosperity goes back to research this kind, which scarcely existed this country before the war. May Supplant Coal. “Coal has been the outstanding ex- ample of making hundreds of every day articles from by-products. It is possible that petroleum may supplant coal in importance. Already chemists have made from petroleum the sol: vents, that is liquids which dissolv other things of prime commercial im- | portance, which can be used in making paints and lacquers. “There already is competition be- tween ~petroleum solvents and' those made by natural processes. Chemists learn one after another how to make synthetically the things that nature produces. Sometimes the chemical method is cheaper, and sometimes not. But one natural product after another is being displaced, and the chemists slowly are winning out. “This new, 1 might almost say, newest of all American industries, is only one of a field growing so rapidly that we are not now able to supply trained research men fast enough. One important American organization in- formed me recently that they needed 240 research men and did not know where to get them.” RN RS TEXTILE INDUSTRY'S FACTORS COMPARED South Has No “Permanently Supe- rior Conditions” Over North, Pennsylvanian Says. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, April 20. — The South has no conditions that are “per- manently superior” to those in the North so far as the textile industry is | concerned, Richard H. Lansburgh, pro- | fessor of industry, University of Penn- sylvania. told the textile conference ar- ed by the Labor College of Phila- delphia here yesterday. “The only condition in the South which now seems to be an mducemem for textile manufacturers” he said, “is that of a cheap labor supply. “The other major factors involved in industrial location are market, raw material, power and transportation. | ‘The Southern textile manufacturers are 1 1o nearer their market than the manu- facturers of the North. In most cases they are farther away, and the freight rate structure gives them no advantage. ln the ultimate competition in ux- tiles,” the speaker continued, “the | Northern manufacturer, with his well | arranged plant and his better paid skilled labor, will have produetion costs which will force the Southern manufac- | turer to get on a sound basis rather than on a boom basis.” | TWO ALLEGED RADICALS | SLAIN BY GENDARMES Men Make Break for Liberty After Arrest for Distributing Seditious Literature. By the Associated Press VIENNA, April 20.—A Jugoslav | schoolmaster and a high school boy were shot by gendarmes yesterday at| the frontier. hey had been arrested | at Agram charged with distributing se- ditious literature after authorities had overheard a conversation between them ir a cafe. The gendarmes conveyed the prison- ers to a specified spot on the frontier, | where they promised to show how the literature was smuggled into the coun- | try. Upon reaching the frontier they made a dash for Austrian territory and were fired upon, their bodies actually | falling across the line of demarcation. ZAGREB, Jugoslavia, April 28 (#).— Police last night said that two men killed by gendarmes near the Austrian border yesterday were “dangerous reds” and that two large sacks of sub- versive literature were found buried | near the scene of the shooting. The man described in Vienna dispatches as a schoolmasier was in reality. they said, a former Communist member of the | Belgrade Parliament named Eksimo- vitch and his companion was a_Com- munist_courier named Djacovitch and | not @ high school hoy ' ERIN ADVANCES AVIATION.
