with discovering means of producing
liquid air at the cost OF no more than
one-sixth the usual price and it is said
That his process, which is mechanical
rather than chemical will ultimately
put liquid air on the market at not
more than about two cents gallon.
The same invention makes it possible
to sell oxygen at cent cubic foot,
which promises to bring it into rather
wide industrial use.
