VAR HORROR IS
VIVID IN film

Somewhere in France win shortly
close at the Bijou theater and those
who have missed this gripping story
of actual warfare viii have missed
one of the most wonderful films ever
screened. Not that it abounds with
the spectacular or that it is filled
with dramatic thrills or lovable ro-
nance, but for tie reason that it de-
picts an event that is making the
most remarkable history of all times,
and the. fact. that it brings to the
very doors of Honolulans an authentic
story OF the great war as it is surging
across the European continent at the
present time.
While there is nothing in the film
that will influence public opinion to
either side of the great controversy
there is a big factor that should help
to make for worlds peace.

AGE OF RUBBER"
IS near AT HAND
GOODRICH PREDICTS THAT VAST
LY INCREASED SUPPLIES OF
CRUDE RUBBER WILL LOWER
COST AND ENLARGE ITS USES.

Akron, O., July 13.-So many indus
tries are face to face with constantly
decreasing supplies OF raw materials
and ever increasing demands due to
population growth, that the contract
afforded by the rubber business looms
up wildly.
in 1905, according to figures given
out for publication by the B. r. Good
rich compand, uncultivated or native
rubber comprised 6O,S0O tons, while in
1914 the production had dropped back
to 10000 tons. But cultivated OR plan
tation rubber in the same space of
time hal risen from 145 tons to $4,000
tons.
In 1917, the Goodrich company esti-
mates that while native rubber pro-
duction will have fallen to $4,000 tons,
plantation rubber will amount to 49,
600 tons. By 1927, it is predicted that
209 900 tons of cultivated rubber will
be available while but 10000 tons of
native rubber will be produced.
Thus 1917 will show total increase
of so per cent in crude rubber supplies
over 1914, due to the fast growing pro-
duction on plantations. And when raw
rubber reaches that level of cost which
vastly increased supplies would indi-
cat, myriad new uses will be added to
those for which the present relatively
limited production is required.
Leather Extremely Scarce.
AS ranches and open ranges became
converted into farms, and the number
of cattle decreases, lessening the sup
ply of leather, while the population
which must wear shoes and the fac
| tories which must have betting in
crease, rubber will step i'll more and
more TO furnish better service at even
lower cost.
Illustrations of these changes are
already at hand. The B. F. Goodrich

MARCONl TALKS ON
INVENTIONS AND WAR.

Rome, Aug. Il, Correspondence OF
The Associated Press NO notable
scientific discoveries or inventions
are growing out of the great war, in
the opinion of William Marconi, the
wireless inventor. In an interview
with a correspondent of The Associa
ted Press he said:
"As for war inventions, on the
whole there have been no great ones
that occur to me- Most of them have
been minor ones, or applications of
knowledge previously at our disposal,
as in the case of poison gases, if
/ these may be named at all In my
own field there has been some ad-
vance in practical wireless by which
we are now able to direct the artil-
| lery fire of ship by signals from an
aeroplane, which has made possible
| largely through the big movements
in aircraft.
THE big lesson in Europe has been
one of organization, of the physical
handling of big material problems by
| the armies | doubt if any one be-
J fore this war ever realized the mean
ing of value of railroad transporta-
tion on large scale, as it is practiced
in the United States. Europe, too,
has learned how to do big industrial
jobs overnight, to assemble raw ma
terals and turn out needed factory
products.
81 refuse to play the prophet role;
so | would rather not say how many
of these war products will be of use
to us when peace comes"
Since the beginning of the war Mr.
Marconi has had unusual opportuni-
ties for observing the practical side
of the war, having early put his sci
entific knowledge at the service of
his country. AS a senator of the
kingdom he has visited England, Bel
GUM, France, and other countries,
and introduced industrial and ship
ping reforms. In this capacity as
military officer he has come into
close relation with army and navy
and given the benefit of his science
and business organization knowledge
to munition factories He has also
perfected the army and navy wireless
systems and at present working on a
signal system, which, it is expected,
will ernder far more difficult sub
marine warfare through the reader
location and signalling of the pres
ence of such craft The details of
this he was unable to furnish be
cause of its immediate military i'm
portance.

ences of this war is that | cannot CON
