WOMAN. CHEMIST
MAKES LIQUID RUBBER
Makes It Possible to Water
Proof Practically All
Substances

= San Francisco, Oct. 2.-Manufaciure
of rubber in liquid form for water
proofing, insulating, wood preserving
and prevention of rust is the latest
commercial possibility, it was announced
today after the completion of successful
experiments by Mrs. Anne Gilbert Cox.
Mrs Cox is the wife of DR.. II. Barringer
Cox, inventor of the dry cell battery,
the wireless subterranean telephone and
other new devices.
With the liquid rubber applied in any
desired consistency with a brush, any
material can be effectively waterproof
ed say they who have witnessed Mrs.
Cox's demonstrations. The dressing,
once applied, is impervious to either
heat or cold, and in one of her expert
ments, Mrs. Cox coated a piece of It's
sue paper without affecting the flexibil,
ity of the paper.
Mrs. Cox has been working on this
discovery for six years in her husband g
laboratory, She has thorough tech
meal education and has also been DR..
Cox's laboratory assistant for several

Asbury Park, N. j., Oct. President

When he starts west tomorrow night
to speak in Omaha Thursday evening,
the president will have completed his

a thorough discussion of what changes
will be made in the foreign and bust
ness policies of the government if there
is change of administration March 4.
Wilson will continue to use the taunt-
ing sarcasm employed in his address to
young democrats Saturday, challenging
his republican opponent to divulge how
far the policy of peace or the present
administration will be followed in case
of republican victory.
There may be no direct questions, no
indulgence in personalities - but the
questions and challenges will be found
in the president IS speeches, even as
they abounded in his last one, when he
Indicated war would be the republican
method of its foreign policy. A new
optimistic atmosphere was in evidence
in democratic circles here with the
knowledge the president has let down

The big issue, he believes, rests in his
foreign policy and will continue his at
tempts to show that any change in this
