NOTED CHEMIST
 HAS DISCOVERED LOW COST FUEL

ROME, May 13 - Dr. Pasticci, noted chemist, has publicly an .nounced the discovery of a method of cheaply producing liquid hydro .gen, which may be used as motive power for driving automobiles and for similar purposes.
 One gallon of the liquid power, the doctor claims, is sufficient to propel an automobile distance of 250 miles, and the prediction is made that the new process which he has discovered will revolutioniZe transportation and force material reduction in the price of gasoline and even crude oil.
 The discoverer declares that the liquid hydrogen will prove practical for the propulsion of locomotives, being less costly and more conven- tent than either coal or fuel oil, and he also believes that it can be used successfully on ocean steamers.

HOOVER ADVISES RATIONINC
 AS MEANS OF SAVING SUGAR

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 13.- Herbert Hoover, who directed the food policy of the country during the period of the war, has issued a statement in which he suggests the rationing of sugar as a means of conserving the very limited supply now available for consumption. Manufacturers of non-essentials, he says, should be limited in the use of sugar, and there should be an agreement between the United States and foreign countries not to bid against each other for such sugar as is offered for sale. If these steps are taken immediately, the former food administrator claims, the situa- tion will be greatly relieved.

after the collapse of the Bolsheviki regime, according to former Secre- tary of Commerce Redfeld, who is now president of the American Rus sian Chamber of Commerce. Red field has caused the publication of a statement here, in which he de- scribes present conditions in Russia.
 The present high cost of living in the United States and elsewhere is ascribed by Redheld to Russian in activity and to the failure of that country to export 50O,0OO,OO0 bush els of wheat. The withholding of the wheat, he says, is responsible for a worldwide shortage and con- sequent high prices.
 The fact that Russia's usual sup ply of 6,OOO,OO0 calfskins is not available, the statement says fur ther, is keeping up the price oi shoes, and the absence of Russia's oil supply is boosting the price of gasoline. It is also pointed out that linen has been driven from the market because Russian flax is un- available.
 Redfield believes that America should take the leading part in the rehabilitation of Russian railroads. so as to make possible the shipment of these much-needed products. The railroads, he says, are in need of equipment which will cost upwards of billion dollars >~ ...- -~..
