GASOLINE MUST =
keep PACE With
AUTO INDUSTRY
Process Of Cracking Is Ex-
pected to Supply Most Of
) Added Motor Fuel
Needed.
By ELLWooD HENDRIcK.

In DR.. Walter F. Rittman's addfess
before the spring meeting of the
American Chemical society he gave
some interesting figures about gaso-
line and the automobile industry and
he also made some predictions. 1t is
published in full in the society's In
dustfial journal.
Of 3,000,000000 gallons of gasoline
to be produced in the United States in
1917, he said that one-ffth would be
made by cracking. Cracking petro-
leum means taking petroleum residues
after the gasoline and kerosene have
been distilled off and treating this resi-
due according to various processes,
but usually with heat and pressure.
What happens is that, in a chemical
sense, and to use very loose ex-
preston, the residue is knocked to
pieces; into big and little pieces,
let us say. Then some of the
little pieces are found to be gasonne.
1t has been observed that there is
limit to cracking and that after three
times in succession the residue re-.
fused to separate into gasoline and
other bodies. On further treatment it
shows disposition to go back into its
original elements, carbon and hydro
gen. The rule seems to be about three
times and out.

German Commerce Raider Sinks off Trinidad
 Due to Internal
 Explosion. WREcKAGE PICKED UP Hundred Men Drowned as Raider Went Down as It Had Sent Others
 in Same Way.
WRECKAGE PICKED Uf

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, April 24.- What is believed to be authentic in formation as to the fate of the Ger man cruiser Karlsruhe, which was ac tive in the waters of the Caribbean and off the coast of Brazil during the first months of the war, was given by Capt. Heinrich Lubinus, former prize officer on the Karlsruhe and who brought the German prize KD Ill into this port in January, 1915.
 The KD-111 was formerly the Brit ish freighter Farne and was captured October ,, 1914.
 The Karlsruhe was sunk following an internal explosion on November A. 1914, not far from the Island of Trinidad, according to Capt. Lubinus, who said he had only recently re- ceived information direct from Ger many from one of the surviving off cers of the cruiser. The statement gives confirmation to reports from Trinidad about that time life pre- served and portions of wreckage, believed to have come from the Karlsruhe had been picked up there.
 According to Captain Lubinus, Cap tain Kohler, commander of the Karls- ruhe, several of the officers and more than 100 men lost their lives when the cruiser went down

ETERNAL HAPPINESS
Written for The Evening Journal
By JAMES T. CRoZICR.

My friend, can you say you are on the
way
TO that beautiful Heavenly Land,
II so know you are all right today
Because you obeyed the command.
In the Good Book we read there is no
other name
In Heaven or given among men.
Whereby we are saved from sin down
here,
Amt you glad that you made the
start then.
We know that Jesus said come unto
me
And we know that we should obey,
For woman and man lie was nailed to
the tree,
Just accept Him, be happy today.
No JOY in this world can compare, my
friend,
To that which comes into the heart
OF all who trust, are awaiting the end
Because they have all done their part
liAt9 hunW lidl suiiie gay lie Will
bring them home
TO that place where flowers ever
bloom,
And are trusting and waiting for that
day TO come
When their bodies are placed in the
tomb.
Have you the JOY my brother and
friend,
AS these days are fast going by,
For each of them bring you much
nGarer the end
And on one Of them you viii die.
If you have this Joy let me say you are
right
For Life is uncertain you know:
If death should come in the daytime OF
night,
The gates will be open, that's so.
You will pass in saved to that home OF
the blest
And forever will be with the Lord,
Throughout eternity there you will rest
Because you have trusted His word
