MACHINISTS DENY AGREEMENT
I Mon President Says There Is v

At the moment when the abolition

settlement in the House and Senate, a
that the whole question IS in process OF
being settled by collective bargaining
between the employees and the govern

states Commission on Industrial Rels-
tons said y. p. Alias. president OF
District a. International Association Of
Machinists yesterday. District A in
cludes all machinists employed in gov

No such agreement has been entered
into continued Mr.. Alias. An order
has been issued by Gen. William Crozier.
chief Of ordnance OF the War Depart

Of the TAYLOR system is in direct opposi-
ton to that of the employees. This or

troll of the situation. The order has
not been accepted by the employees at
the Watertown Arsenal. and the machin-

The very fact that the department
issued the order without consulting our
wishes about the changes made. indi-
Gates that they have not entered into
the spirit ST collective bargaining.
The plan as issued is not collective
bargaining at all; it is merely giving
employees a hearing by means of elabo-
rate machinery. Having an outsid. me-
diator present at their deliberations may
have the effect of toning down their
grievances. and the net result would be
that the department would issue orders

NEW SCHEME TREBLES
OUTPUT OF GASOLINE
Chemical Engineers Invention Will
Give Independent Re6ners 200
Per Cent Increase.

Secretary of the Interior Lane yes
terday announced the discovery by
the United States Bureau of Mines of
two chemical processes. one of which,
IL is said. will be of great Importance
TO the oil industry. greatly Increasing
the supply of gasoline. while the other
may make the United States abso-
lutely independent of the rest of the
world in regard TO important mate
rails necessary for the dye industry
and the manufacture of high explo-
ing operations.
The first of these processes prom
ises to enable the independent re-
finers in this country to increase their
output of gasoline from petroleum
200 per cent or more. With an es-
timated production on the part of the
independent refiners of 12.00O.000 bar
rels of gasoline in a year, this will
mean an output from the independents
alone of 36.OO0.00O barrels, greater
than the total production today from
all sources.
The second process includes the
manufacture from crude petroleum of
yond other countries in by-products
and benzol. both of which have here
tofore been obtained from coal tar.
AS Germany has specialized far be-
yong other countries in by-products
from coal. the United States and the
rest of the world have been domino ted
by that country as regards those
products of toluol and benzol which
are the important bases for the
production of dye stuffs and high ex-
plosives. and especially smokeless
powder.
The discoverer of these two valua-
BILE processes, after many years of re-
search. is DIR. Walter F. Rittman,
chemical engineer of the Bureau of
Mines. the work having been done at
Columbia University. New York
