CRYING NEED FOR MASKS
U. S. Appeals For Huge Supply OF
Fruit Seed and Nut Shells.

New York, Oct. 2S.-The govern
ment needs 100000 pounds of nut
shells and fruit stones daily Tor man.
ufacturing gas mask charcoal, and at
present is unable to purchase one
third that amount. This and the fall
IRE of the public to cooperate fully
by saving and sending in this form OF
waste from the kitchen made it neces-
sary for the chemical wartTe head
quarters here 20 renew its appeal.
Because of the lack of sufficient
material, wood charcoal now is being
mixed with she'll charcoal for masks.
7 he wood charcoal is not hard, and
will settle, making it difficult for the
wearer of mask containing it to
breathe, and it has not the absorptive
qualities of the she'll product.
The government is making arrange
'ents to obtain the necessary shells
in the Fer East, but it Will be months
before the plan can be put into oper-
;.tion.
