NEW-WAY OF MAKING GASOLINE BY ELECTRICITY DEMONSTRATED iI\/Iinmzsc:ata. Chemists Eliminate Use of Fire or Heat—New Process of Making Phosog‘ene Gas chortcd. Bysthe Assoclated Press, MINNEAPOLIS, September 12.—A new way of ‘making gasoline and ofl by electricity was exhibited to the American Chemical Soclety today. The discovery is the work of two University of Minnesota chemists, Prof. | 8. C. Lind and Dr. George Glockler. Simply by switching an electrical current through “wild gas” that escapes from ofl wells they convert it into gasoline or oll. The new process gets away from the use of fire or heat, heretofore an almost universal need of manufacturing. The electrified gas has the same temperature as that of the room in which it is worked.

The process has been used successfully on five kinds of gas from petroleum wells. Prof. Lind said there is a possibility that some oils may be made more cheaply than by present methods, but that he does not sce a prospect of using electricity to make cheaper gasoline. The National Petroleum Association sponsors the research. A riddle that has been bothering | chemists in many branches of manu- | facturing was solved by Prof. Lind in | another report. He has made phoso- gene, one of the poison gases used dur- ing the World War, merely by turn- | ing light upon carbon monoxide and chlorene. The light caused the two | gases to combine into phosogene. He substituted radium rays for the light and again obtained phosogene. Chemists have been in doubt as to how the change into phosogene took | place. Dr. Lind showed that it was like setting up a row of dominoes and knocking down the first one, causing the whole row to tip over, one after the other. He demonstrated that the molecules of chlorene acted like the dominoes.
