RUN MOTOR CARS WITH GAS
Scotch Engineers Use 1t as Substitute
for Gasoline for Short Runs
or City Use.

The unprecedented war demand
for gasoline is stimulating the search
for substitutes.
The latest fuel to be used success
fully to run a motor car is COM
pressed Illuminating gas. The tests
were carried out by the city officials
Of Glasgow, Scotland. A machine
was specially built with two big high
pressure tanks and low-pressure
tank where the gas could expand on
its way to the engine. The cars are
said to have run perfectly. The en-
ginecrs say that mechanism can
easily be devised with which the auto
engine can be used for COMPRISING
the gas into the tanks:
They conclude that the fuel is
cheap, and quite practicable for
short runs OF city use, although the
supply will have to be renewed much
oftener than is the case with gaso-
line.

PARASITE IN CANCER?

According to DR.. Erwin F. Smith,
pathologist in charge Of the labora-

Of tumors and cancers is about to be
Illuminated. In a lecture before the
National Academy Of Sciences, Doc
tor Smith explained his belief that
crown gall is cancer and that there
is a close relation between this plant
disease and cancer in animals and
human beings. Tie also seems to
have established the fact that both
crown gall and cancers are Of para
