SHORTAGE IN GASOLINE.
BY Frederic ]. Haskin.

'Wanted-A substitute for gasoline.
Millions Of dollars for the right liquid
fuel at the right price. Apply to any
chemical or mechanical engineer in the
world"
Such is the desire, translated into the
language of the want ad page. Of a large
portion of the scientific and industrial
world. Gasoline is not only high In price,
but there actually is not enough of the
product in sight to keep pace with the
rapidly increasing number of internal
CONFUSION engines. which must use a
liquid fuel so highly volatile that upon
the application Of heat it will be turned
into gas ready to be exploded by an cleo
trio sparker. Kerosene may be used, but
it requires a specially constructed car
buretor and the application Of much out
side heat before the engine can be start
ed. Alcohol may be used. but it is even
higher in price than gasoline. although
the supply is practically unlimited.
The International Association of Rec
ship of which is composed Of representa-
tives, of the most influential automobile
clubs in the world, has offered an award
Of 100000 cash for the best all-around
fuel other than petrol. or gasoline,
which will satisfactorily take the place
OF the petroleum product. The decision
was made at the meeting of the board
of directors. held in Paris last February.
when it was arranged that each Of the
big clubs in the organization represent
ing France, England. Germany. Austria
Hungary. Holland, Russia. Switzerland.
Roumania and Egypt should contribute
its portion to the general fund which
shall constitute the prize Baron de
Kuylen de Nyvelt is the chairman of the
committee and has his Office in Paris at

Provided Against. very simple. The
fuel must be suitable for existing internal
combustion engines. 1t must be less ex-
pensive, readily procurable and of such
nature that it cannot be cornered b.

Preparations for the formal announce
ment Of these conditions are now being
made ready by the committees. An i'm
portant detail in connection with the
prize offered by the Association of Auto
mobile Clubs is the assurance. which will
be obtained from all of the governments
of Europe that the new fuel will b.
taxed very moderately if at all.
In the United States equal interest is
being manifested in a gasoline substitute
Several new fuels are now being triel
out by automobile manufacturing COM
panies. the results of which are not yet

claimed. can be manufactured at 3 cents

ing the first week in August. to which
were invited delegates from twenty diff
ferent organizations interested In Pc
troleum and its products \ careful
study has been made OF the gasoline sit
uation with relation to it's use for fuel
and arrangements were made for the CO.
operation of this nation with the interna-
tional petroleum commission. which was
organized in Paris several years ago.
In order to obtain a single gallon OF
gasoline from refinable California petro-
leum 1t is necessary to produce as by
products nine gallons OF kerosene and
thirty gallons of residue oils In other
words it requires forty gallons of crude
petroleum to secure one gallon of gaso-
line. Although the output of western
petroleum is continually increasing the
price of gasoline is rising. The investi-
cations made by the Department of Com
merce indicate that the advancing price
of gasoline is due solely to the law OF
supply and demand No trust or corpor-
alton is responsible for the higher prices
which are now impending.
The production of crude oil in this
will probably approximate 3OO.-
600. OOO barrels this year. But the largest |
increase of production of gasoline yet
recorded i'm a year has Deen less than
10 per cent. while the production or
vehicles will i'm all prob |
ability represent an increase of 100 per /
cent. In addition to this the supply OF /
crude oils yielding gasoline is decreasing.
The increased crude oil output of Okla
noma and California will consist largely
,f asphalt oils having insufficient gaso-
inc for existing requirements.
