HERTLTNG HOPES TOR
EARLY CONFERENCE
BY the United Press


AMSTERDAM. Feb. 26.-Chancellor
Hertling, in his address before the Ger
man Reichslag. yesterday declared
President Wilson's message OF Febru-
airy q. contained some principles
which might constitute the basis for a
general peace discussion n all the bel
ligerents agreed 20 a mutual exchange
Of views. according 10 dispatches re-
ceived here today.
- readily admit that President VIII
sons message OF February A.. consti-
tutes perhaps z small step toward re-
impeachment said the Imperial
Chancellor.
Il can fundamentally agree with the
four principles which. In President
Wilson's view, must be applied in a mu-
tual exchange Of views and thus declare
with President Wilson that 2 general
peace can be discussed on such basis.
only one reserve need be made in con-
nectlon with these principles. They
must not only be proposed by President
Wilson, but actually be recognized by
all states and peoples.
This goal has not yet been reached
There is yet no court OF arbitration.
"inasmuch as peace has been made
with Russia. the world asks Isn't
the gate opened toward a general
peace But Britain. Italy and France
are not ready 90 listen 10 reason They
are lighting for conquest.
There is no Alsace-Lorraine ques-
tion in an international sense, as I have
said before.
"The world now stands before nnai

eide 10 conclude peace-they know on
what terms they are ready 10 begin
discussion--or they will continue their
insanity in a criminal war Of con
quest
"Our people will hold out further,
but the blood Of the fallen. the agOn-
les n the mulilated and the suffering
of the people will fall upon the heads
Of those who insistently refuse 90
listen 10 the voices OF reason and hu-
maniiy.'
Il can agree with Mr. Runciman for
mer head Of the British Board of Agri-
culture) n he meant we would be
nearer peace II the proper responsible
representatives Of belligerentS would
meet in conclave for discussions. This
would be the way Of removing all in
tentlonsl or uninieniional mlsunder-
standings on many individual questions.
I'm thinking especially Of Belgium
IN this connection Il has been said
repeatedly that we do not intend TO re-
tain Belgium. But we must be safe
guarded against Vaccinations and
against utilization Of Belgium as the
jumping on place Of the enemy.
III. therefore. the proposal came
from the opposing side, for example
from the Hayre government Belgian
government we should not take up an
antagouistic attitude. even though the

binding

between 100000 and 100000 cubic feet
per minute, and during the fl.sation
tests made of the gases throughout
a period of Mira months it was found
that the electrical precipitator recov-
cred between so and 80 per cent of the
suspended matter. With improve
ments in detail of construction, the ef-
ficiency later was raised well up into
the nineties.
Great Wastsge in Smoke.
The general public has only the
faintest notion of the wastage repre-
sented in the fumes and smokes from
belching stacks quite apart from the
benefcient economies following from
their abatement where the nature of
these outpourings is harmful to man
and vegetation. In the smelling Of
lead the fume contains anywhere from
3 to 10 per cent of the volatilized met
al in the form of lead oxide and lead
sulphide, with compounds of arsenic
and anthony This percentage IS
well worth recovering. Doctor Cott-
rell Is authority for the statement that
not less than SO valuable substances
are found in fumes which, If not col
lected would be lost during the snelt-
ing and refining of various ores, etc.
At Great Falls. Mont, there was at
one time a daily loss in dust from the
stacks of one of the large smelters of
BITS pounds Of copper. 106 ounces of
silver, and OIL ounces of gold. BY an
adequate provision for dust recovery,
this smelter was able to save in the
course of single year metallic val
ues amounting to $130.263.
The blighting gas, sulphur dioxide,
given off from the stacks of copper
smelters can be transformed into use
full substances by turning the gas into
sulphuric acid or sulphur. Sulphuric
acid is largely made here by treating
pyrites, and we now consume annually
in the neighborhood of 6,25000O tons
of 80 per cent sulphuric acid. To a
great extent this corrosive fluid Is a
prime constituent in the preparation
Of fertilizers, especially where phos-
phate rock is treated for this purpose.
1t is also used in converting the am
monla by-products of cooking ovens
into ammonia sulphate. Sulphuric
acid is In great demand by explosive
factories. oil refiners. steel mills and
varied industries engaged in the maxi
ing of heavy chemicals. Sulphuric
acid is likewise extensively employed
by smelters and the latter are paying
as high as $50 q ton today for the
stuff. Sulphur dioxide is used in
the preparation of wood pulp for pa
per making, both as disintegrating
and bleaching agent.

% abate nuisances that bid fair to
cause the shutdown or removal OF
costly plants.
In dealing with dust alone, the nrst
direct effort along this line had 10 90
with Portland plant near Riverside,
Cal. An electrical treater was instaii-
ed there a few years ago by way OF ex-
pertinent, and couple OF years later
was collecting something like nun
dred tons Of dust daily. Prior to that
the dust had been scattered broadcast
and settled upon the groves OF ADA
cent orange growers, leading TO extern
sive litigation. Analysis of the re-
covered dust disclosed the presence of
an appreciate percentage OF potash,
but this attracted no marked attention
at the time. Since then. particularly
now that it is no longer possible for
us to get potash from our prime
source, Germany, this element so es-
sentiai to a balanced plantfood is in
great demand.
Last year the plant at Riverside
started full blast to actually create
dust as it's first concern in order to
recover the potash which previously
had been only a by-product In the
manufacture of cement.
Cement Becomes By-Product.
This Is certainly rnmeatic deyel-
opment of modern industry, where an
apparatus installed for the purpose OF
saving the life of the factory turns out
to be the center of operations around
which the entire plant is adjusted.
In other words, the cement becomes
for the once the by-product and the
profits on the potash furnish an ample
revenue. while the cement Is just SO
much additional gain.

Of electrical precinitators not only In
preventing the escape of the dust but
in saving the potash which Is so much

Perhaps the most interesting part
NJ the whole story of Doctor Cottrelrs
success is the fact that he has pre-
scented TO Smithsonian institute at
Washington all of his valuable patents
relating to the electrical precipitation
Of dust. smoke and fumes. The pur-
nose of this munificence on his part
was that any profits resulting from
the practical ar sicatlon Of the pat.
