ZIQUID FULL AND THE FUTURE.

SCARCITY OF PETROL: ALCOHOL AB, A

SUBSTITUTE,

Liquid fuel and electricity, says the Pall Mall Gezette, will in the future be the principal agents of industrial

power.

The supply of petrol is limited; it is constantly increasing in price. How is the growing demand for it to be

met?

These all-important questions are die cussed in the following article by well-known experts.

GREAT DISCOVERY BY SIR W. RAMSAY.

CREATION OF MATTER.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, FRIDAY, MARCH 14rn, 1013.

A discovery which will revolutionise the science of chemical research, and sot lundreds of chemists working on new lines all over the world has been made by Sir William Ramsay, Professor Norman Collie, of University College, London, and Mr. H. Patterson, of the University of Leeds.

Although it bas still to be developed it one of two things either the means transmutation of elements, or the evolu tion of matter from energy, both of which have hitherto been regarded as impossible. Sir William Ramsay made the following

What is to be the future of the petrol market is a question that is just new engaging the earnest attention of authori-brief explanation for the Daily Mail:-- ties on the subject.

Broadly speaking, petrol itself is only one' feature of the case to be considered, for this involves the larger issue of liquid

fuel.

Discussing the matter to-day with Sir Boverton Redwood, adviser on petroleum to several Government Departments, a representative of the Pall Mall Gazette found him indisposed to look too far ahond with regard to the supply of petrul. While not contesting that she oilfields already known are approaching the limit of their yield, Sir Boverton considers that much yet remains to be done in the direction of increasing the supply of petrol by the process known as fractional distillation....

DISTILLATION.

This consists in subjecting the heavy oils, after they have been refined to a certain degree, to distillation, in the course of which the lighter, more volatile, products of the oils are given off first, and when thus separated are condensed again for use.

In this way a certain percentage of petrol can be obtained from heavy oil, sufficient to repay the expense of distilla tion. By such means, Sir Boverton sug gests, the supply of petrol may be kept up for purposes of fuel for some time to

"For several years," he said, "I usod half a gremise of radium bromide, lont to me by the Royal Academy of Vienna. With that I thought I had succeeded in trangmuting copper into Iftium; silicon, to titanium, zirconium, and thorium carbon. More recently I obtained neón from water.

**Two years ago the radium bromide: was recalled by the Academy. Now radium contains an enormous amount of energy in a concentrated form. In order to go whether some other source of energy could not be found to achieve the same! results I investigated the contents of used X-ray bulba (closed glass vessels which had been used to produce X-rays by means of an electrical discharge between two pieces of metal, one of which is known as the cathode). The bulbs were given to me by a medical friend.

These bulbs were found to contain traces of the gas helium, the existence of which could not be explained.

Mr.

"Professor Collio was simultaneously experimenting with home-made X-ray bulbs, in which the cathode rays were employed as a source of energy, Patterson pursued a similar course of investigation, quite independently, and without knowing of Dr. Collie's work. Dr. Collie was very sceptical at first, but ultimately they both came to the concin sion that if cathode rays are passed The introduction of alcohol as a sub. through pure hydrogen gas in a certain stitute for petrol, which has been advo-manner there is present in the hydrogen cated in another quarter, the same tube considerable quantities of neon, one authority regards sabeyond the region of practical politics" at present, mainly by reason of his opinion that the possibili ties of the heavy oila with fractional 'distillation are first to be reckoned with.

THRER POSSIBILITIES. Inasmuch as there is certainly no helium or neon in the bulbs, and as the Another authority of high standing in possibility of their entrance from the the City, however, is a strong believer in outside air, which contains them, was the advisability of substituting alcohol as excluded by carefully devised experi- a fuel. In the first place he points cutments, the only conclusion which can be the that the two great oil fields of the world, drawn is that these elements are the Russian and the Pennsylvanian, have product of some action going on in the practically become exhausted, though bulb there may be reserves of heavy oil "held up" on the fields themselves in view of a coming shortage. In that case, the fractional distillation process might, and probably would, be employed to keep up the supply of petrol for the market,

But this, of course, could be only a temporary expedient. There would come a time when the stock of petrol thus obtained would be at an end. Then the turn of alcoholic fuck would arrive. This the authority in question regarde as so far-reaching in its effects that the results of its introduction is deseribed by anticipation as a social revolution.

The importance of the discovery is that we have deciphered another line in the book of nature and have opened the door to further discoveries. There may be com mercial consequences: there probably will be but those are not the concern of the scientific investigator. We are on the threshold of an entirely now departure in scientific investigation.

To make this clear to the general reader it is necessary to observe that petroleum, the source of petrol, kerosene, naradin, and the heavier rock oila, is natural product. The supply, therefore like that of coal, is limited. On the other band, alcohol can be manufactured by a process of fermentation from vegetable products, such as beet and potatoes.

Quite clearly, one important result of the utilisation of alcohol as a fuel would be an enormously increased demand for it. To meet this demand, it would be necessary to increase proportionately the

"One advantage of the discovery is sources of supply. This would have to be this:lt is now within the reach of done by enlarging the area of potato and anyone who can command a battery and beet growing, to meet the arcessities of a coil to repeat the experiment.

could attempt anything of the kind." agricultural industry.

Potatoes and beet would be grown for the industrial purpose of supplying alcohol as a fuel, and the question of back to the land" would thus, to a considerable degree, at any rate, automa- tically solve itself.

GOVERNMENT INTERFERENCE,

The authority cited pointed out, bow- ever, that there must be no 'Government haggling and peddling over the use of non-duty paid spirit. At the present time, for example, any efforts in the direction of obtaining a supply of indus trial alcohol are fettered and hindered by officialdom, less perchance some small quantity on which duty has not been paid and which has gut been rendered unfit for internal administration by a process of methylisation should fall into the hands of the unregenerate and occasion unlicensed merrymaking.

Sore Throat?

Then Try Formamint.

Sore Throat is so common in this climate that never to suffer from it, even during the worst season of the year, would be au unique experience for most people. Yet this can easily be accomplished, as an emi- nent physician has proved.

"I have never liad a Sore Throat myself since I be gan to use Formamint Tablets," he writes in the "Practitioner for Decemi-

ber, 1967, although I suffered periodically before."

Everyone who uses. Formamiat may enjoy the same immunity, not merely from Sore Throat, but also from Tonsillitis, and those grave infectious diseases like Diphtheria, Cousumption, Scarlet Fever, Measles, Mumps, etc., many of which invariably begin with Sore

Throat.

All such diseases are contracted through inhaling germs which breed rapidly in the uth and throat. A Formamint Tablet, dis- solved in the mouth, inst intly destroys these germs.
