u. S. Gasoline Substitute
Reputed to Reduce the Cost
by Sixty Cents on Dollar

A gasoline substitute which can be
manufactured to sell at two-ffths of
the present cost of gasoline may be
on the market by the first of the year.
An announcement by the war depart
ment states that such a substitute
has been produced by the research
and development division of the de-
partment. According to the present
plan, the formula will be released to
manufacturers, probably under some
agreement with the war department
as to the margin of profit that will
be allowed.
The product, which has kerosene
for a base, is odorless, ~colorless and
non-corrosive, according to the war
departments statement, and tests
have proved it to develop a thermal
efficiency greater than the best gaso-
line. 1t was said that Capt. E. G.
Weisgarber, a gas and Oil engineer
connected with the department, who
is responsible for the discovery and
development of the substitute, viii be
relieved from duty and placed in
charge of its distribution.

Nhen British Took Gurna
in 1914, Arabia Was Put
on Map by the Operation

At the junction of the Tigris and
E%uphrates riyers-100 miles from the
Persian CULTS the town Of Gurna.
The few tourists who, in a%nte-bellum
days, says a writer in Asia Maya
zine, sailed past Gurna were told to
look with reverence at the spot, for
here was the original Garden of Eden.
In December, 1914, the British took
Gurna and Arabia was put on the map.
The advance which British arms made
In the land of the Arab was important
In proportion, as the Germans regard
ed Arabia as important. Arabia
doomed large on the Teutonic horizon
because it was the door to "Mittel Eu-
ropa" and because it is the cradle of
Islam. Since Islam is p~rofessed by
the majority of the population in Tur-
key, and 100000 of Indians, and
100000 of Russians, and 24,O00,000
In the East Indies, and 100000 in
Egypt, and 100000 in Persia, and
100000 in A~fghanistan, and 100000
In China-Islam was considered worthy
of an attempt at wedlock, holy or I'M
holy.
If you look at the map of the Med
i%terranean you will see that Cyprus
seems to have a great finger which
points just to where Asia Minor bends
down sharply to form the Syrian coast.
Napoleon noticed this more than 100
years ago and suggested that there lay
the key to any situation which would
involve that part of the world. Fol
low the finger and it is significant that
the objective of the British cam
paigns in Palestine and Mesopotamia
was Alleppo. Thence draw the line
straight across, and you draw with al
most uncanny accuracy the northern
linguistic boundary of Arabia.

Claim Porcelain Industry
Successfully Launched in
u. S. as Result of the War

An important development in the
pottery industry of the United States
is the production of chemical porce-
lain, the manufacture of which in this
country was considered impossible be-
fore the war. Several operators are
now making chemical porcelain, says
the U. S. Geological Survey Bulletin,
which satisfactorily meets the exact
ing requirements of the laboratory.
In 1917 the value of the output of
every variety of pottery classified by
the geological survey, except red
earthenware, was greater than in 1916.
White ware showed the largest in
crease-S2, 729,079, or 10 per cent. Por-
celain electrical supplies also showed
a large increase-$2,4 AT, 166, or "a per
cent. China, the highest grade Of pot
terry, has been a minor product in
value, yet it's value in 1917 showed an
increase of $1,327, 534, or 80 per cent,
compared with 1916. It's value in 1917
was nearly twice as great as in 1913.
The value of white ware, including
china, which comprises the general
household wares and constitutes more
than 45 per cent of the value Of all
pottery, was $50, 726,375 in 1917. an
increase of ~$4,05e,613, Or 10 per cent,
over 1916. If to this sum is added
the value of the %high-grade products,
sanitary ware and porcelain electrical
supplies, the total value In 1917 was
S47,814,178, or $7,998,579 more than
In 1916.

melting popular feeling against Amer
lea and thus paving the way for pos
eible open demonstrations.
Representative Japanese deplore
the press campaign and have begun to
criticize the government for its fail
ure to check the literary outbursts, on
the ground that they are going so far
that they are liable to engender i'll
feeling.
The participants In mass meeting
held Sunday, at which some anti
American speeches were delivered, an
nounced their intention of continuing
the demonstration in front of the
American embassy. The police, how
ever, interfered and prevented this
step.
The belief Is expressed here that the
basis for the agitation is fear of the
growing influence of the United
States in international affairs, as evil
denced by her position at the peace
conference and that it will act as a
curb on what are regarded as Japan's
legitimate aspirations in China and
Siberia.
