Monameats fo Ability Scattered From Catifornia to Tarkestan Washington, Feb, 18 M—Fromn California to the border nf Turkes-| tan, Herbert Hoover's skill as a technician and coordinator has left its mark. Today. both at home and in the far flung centers of civiliza- tion, a multitude of projects bear evidence of his handiwork. Hoover's career as & mining engi- neer dates back to 1897. A gold boom was sweeping Australia. Only & short while out of Stanford uni- versity, he was afforded his first big opportunity. An English syndicate wanted a young man capable of in- stalling California methods of min- ing into their properties. From then on his record was one of achieve- ment, extending from the equator to the arctie. This first big job in the desert wastes of Australia attracted the at- tention of his profession. Over stu- pendous odds, he determined metal- lurgical methods, designed equip- ment and planned development with such skill as to arouse praise from his superiors. He turned to China. empire was just beginning to stir from its long period of and its lcaders were dreaming of e tablishing a modern industrial state. As & part of this program & bureau of mines was established and Hoo- ver, now 24, selected as its head. His task was to survey the mining possi- bilities of the empire. The Boxer uprising, however, soon brought an end to this work. After the cri of the rebellion Hoover cast lot with a coal mining company in China, and suc- cessfully aided in its reorganization. Jater he became chiet engineer of | the concern, a position he held un-| til Belgian interests gained control and he resigned. Hoover's position as one of the! foremost mining engineers of the! world was by this time secure. to this time his fame rested on the fact that he was an expert tech- nician. Henceforth he was to be known as a coordinator, an admin- istrator of industrial enterprises, an eliminator of waste and folly. He be- came a pivot man and leader to a group of engineers who worked in- ternationally. His headquarters were in London, | but he mostly was anywhere else in | the world. He maintained offices in New York and 8an Francisco. He was back again in Australia soon. Broken Hill claimed his atten- tion. From the mining of lead and sllver in this region the problem of what to do with the refuse arose. low grade ore abounded here as well, but the lead and silver would be unprofitable unless some utiliza- tion of the by-product could be found. After months of experiment andg .disappointment, a process to use it was found. Since then divi- ends have poured from those dumps {n the form of zinc. Kyshtim, on the slope of the Ural mountains between Russia and S8i- beris, was his next demonstration. Valuable iron and copper depositi were here, but the archaic methods employed had failed to make them pay. Hoover and his associates moved in and American methods were substituted. Not only did cop- per and iron pour from this area, but sulphuric acid, distilled turpen- tine and acetone as well. Hoover had kept his eye on the by-product. From Kyshtim he moved to the wild Altal region on the border of Turkestan. Here he discovered and opened up & treasure of base metals, sinc in particular. From frigid Russia Hoover moved inte the torrid Malayan peninsular. Thirty miles above Mandalay lies & valuable deposit of metals, both base and precious. The problem here preconcerned both chemistry and engineering and took years to solve. It finally was mastered. | That great lethargy., | Up| | | i | in the United States. Dredging at !

Previous to publication of this book, Hoover had collaborated in the production of another called “Economics of Mining.” In 1912, with the aid of Mrs. Hoo- ver, herself a graduate geologist, he privately published an English trans- lation of Agricola’s ‘De Re Mettal- lica,” the first great treatise on min- ing and metallurgy and mining, originally published in Latin in | 1556, CITY BOND ISSUE SELLS BELOW PAR (Continued from First Page) body. The coun favorable voie on the issue was vetoed by thc mayor, but subsequently passed over his veto. The school plans were next before the public for more than a month as the building department insisted on more than 50 changes | being made. Members of the board of finance and taxation were silent today on the question of whether the lonx drawn out opposition to the school board's plan was reflected in the dis- appointingly low income from the bond sale.

While working on a shelf of rcck 95 feat above the bottom of the 655-fout _shaft one of the drillers struck some dynamite, which, it was believed, had failed to esplode in previous blasting. The men were thrown from their places against the wall, Vieiro being blown off the thelf and dropping to the botton® of the shelf.

WIDE WORLD FIELD sttt Zeiee s HERE'S GOOD NEWS | M6 PALMER DIES AT 8 STOCKS IN RALLY FOR HOUSEWVES Nortbampton Dinners Gooked in Community Kitchen Northampton, Mass., Feb, 18 P —Aladdin rubbed the lamp and in- stantly & geni appeared when Alad- din commanded to bring food. The genie vanished and presently the table was laden with a sumptuous feast. That”s only a fairy tale. Something much more substantial than the | magic of an ogre has appeared here to whisk piping hot meals to the tables of group of Northampton folks. It is a community kitchen and, in the opinion of some, it is the be- ginning of an institution that will lift one more task from the shoul- ders of the housewife. Fifteen families share in the products of this dinner kitchen, con- ductcd 0 the demonstration house of the intitute for the coordination of women's interests at Smtih col-l lege. Mrs. Grace Morange, who knows ajl about cooking from ex- perience in her own home, has charge of operations within the kitchen. The cost per meal per person, is only 50 cents. A delivery charge of 10 cents is made for having the food | brought to the back doors of the home, hot and ready to serve. The actual procedure is about as follows, A menu is prepared with varied and well-balanced meals. The housewives telephone the Kitchen with their orders. Shortly before 6 p. m., dinners, prepared and waiting in are placed in market baskets. Provision is made to keep hot and cold foods in their de- 1 ! drives to the patrons' homes. A menu card is placed in cach basket, together with salad dress- ing. sauce for the dessert and but- i ter for the vegatables. Soup is trans- ported in vacuum bottles and salads in aluminum containers. Bread and | butter and beverages are not includ- ed. Vot cvery family patronizes the kitchen every night. A sort of rotat- ing schedule is in effect. Many of the patrons are mothers seeking to com- bine home making with teaching or other work. They are enthusiastic over the occasional relief from plan- ning and preparing dinners and | often make it a point to have din- | ner guests on the night the com- munity kitchen provides the meal. Dr. Ethel Puffer Howes, director of the institute, says that experi- ence has shown that satisfactory ' food can be prepared in a cantral kitchen, packed and delivered in a 000 so that it will' e hot and appetizing. H t just what numerical point the food will cease to have that much desired ‘home-made’ appearance | and come to savor of large quantity cookery, we have not determined.” REAL ESTATE NEWS Warranty A.
