HEARS RUBBER QUESTION Beliove Coal Will Be Source of Its Supply Pittsburgh, Nov. 21 P—Faith that coal some time will become an im- portant source in the world's rub- ter supply was expressed before the | eecond international conference of bituminous coal at the Carnegie 'n- stitute of Technology today. The speaker was Dr. Fritz Hof- mann, of Berlin, Germany, who said he and his associates began about 22 years ago to attempt making syn- thetic rubber. He succeeded after much experimenting in making it from coal, but at a prohibitive ex- pense. Seven Stages Hofmauan enamerated seven stages of transtormation from coal to the production of isoprene, which is the “mother substance” of rubber, and outlined the research which he be- lieves essential to shorten this pro- | cess to the point of competition with natural rub) “It is nceessary,” he said, “to pos- #ess an almost fabulous optimism not to fall prey, before reaching the goa to the feeling of resignation. One who has stuck to this task, however, for 22 years, is likely to hope for final success.” Once rubber is cheaply extracted from coal, Hofmann said, there is no danger that a shortage at the source will occur, even “if ten thousand tons or even hundreds of thousands | of tons ol coal are used for manu- facture, such trifles would cause no wise in coal prices on any exchange..” wh will be quiry begun Turnkey PROBE OF CHARLESTOWN STATE-PRISON LOONS Sensational Charges Made Alleging Conditiodlin Institution Warrant Investigation Immediately Boston, Nov.

Again, just last week, there was the holdup man who picked a deaf gentleman as his victim, and had to shout so loud to make his demands knowa that police came running. And today there was Daniel Falco, the holdup man who forgot his pis- tol. Falco walked up te Milton Fields at Madison and Curtis streets end said: “Hands uj As he spoke, he resched to his hip pocket for his gun. It was not there. In a quandary, he began to search his other pockets. Hisf victim ob- served the actions with growing in- terest. “You have no gun? he inquired. “No,” saild Falco. “It's gone’ That was all Flelds wanted to know. He began burying his fists in Falco’s face.
