and Kazan, an enterprise begun in 1919. Several
mines are already being exploited.
Let us cite here the figures relative to the prin
cpa branches of industry serving military well
civil needs.
Production and Reserves in 1919
Average monthly production-l4 million arzhns
Reserves-nearly milliard arzhins.
Sugar
Production during the campaign 191sl919
In Soviet Russia million poods
In Soviet Ukraine-1O million pools.
Matches
Production in l9lS-1,O3223 boxes.
During six months in 1919-4l9, 100000 boxes.
Monthly producton-2O to 25 thousand poods
More than 10 million pools have been extracted
These products are distributed in accordance with
definite plan First the Red Army is provided then
the workers. and finally. the rest of the population
Let us consider now the question of food.
During these two years the most difficult prob
lem was that of food. The regions most rich in
wheat such the territory of the Don South Russia,
the territories beyond the voga, and Siberia,
either in the hands of the enemy or were passing
from hand to hand
When after the October Revolution, we took
over the power there we're almost no reserves Of
bread. The harvest of 1918 had yield above the
average lin twenty-five provinces of Soviet Russia it
reached 1885 million poods). The system of rationing
which organized about this time could store 1O6
million pools. This permitted in the second half
of 1918 and in 1919 to improve the bread ration for
the population compared to the first half Of 1915
The harvest of 1919 also above the average and
besides, the whole region beyond the Volga and a
part Of Siberia passed into our hands. This year
hope the grain reserves will surpass those of last
year Difficulties encountered principally in trans
portation for the war But thanks to the consolidation
of the distributing system Improvement may be
expected, not very great it is true, but improve
ment nevertheless.
We have cited figures relating only to the prime
pal branches of industry, taking for a basis the
average monthly production. We have described
only the general economic situation in Soviet Rus
.sia, and we have summarized the results of our
activity in the economic sphere during the last two
years. But it is needless to say that we could not
here include all that has been accomplished by the
working masses in the titanic creative work Of the
new life which is in the making under eyes.

weakest points in French conditions.
Ii is pointed out that France cannot

Is now studying a complete renovation
OF the financial policy with a view to
making such provisions to meet obli-

both at home and abroad. Details of
the new financial policy are as yet not
disclosed. but it is understood that ii
comprises large interior loan to take
up all short-term bonds and floating
debt, and important Increases In all
taxes to bring the revenues up to the
annual budget, estimated to require
2O,OOO.O00,0OO to 25.OOO,OOO.OOO francs.
1t is not expected that any internal

Difference Between Grain and Wood

to Make Grain Alcohol.

Chicago.-While there are seventeen
or more alcoholic products known In
chemistry, there are two of general
commercial use in the country-ethyl
alcohol, or ordinary alcohol, the kind
we used to be able to buy "for medici-
nal purposes" and methylated spirit,
or Industrial alcohol. which is popular
" called wood alcohol" and which
does contain an amount Of'that fluid.
Ethyl or ordinary alcohol is formed
by the spirituous or alcoholic fermen-
tation of saccharine juices. The fer
mentation must be completed before II
is distilled. II is made from grain,
either corn. wheat. or barley. This Is
also known as grain alcohol. The
formula is &, a. OH.
Methylated spirit. or industrial alco-
hol. is made of ninety parts of ordi-
nary alcohol and ten parts of wood
alcohol-methyl alcohol.
Source of Wood Alcohol.
Wood alcohol is obtained by the dry
Gistillation of wood. The common
method of obtaining this is 20 take
