ST. LOUIS, April 14.-In paper read before the annual convention of the American Chemical society today, Prof. R. K. Mckee, of Co., lumbia, described his discovery of a new kind of alcohol which he be- lieves will revolutionize power costs for internal combustion engines.
 The alcohol, Prof. Mckee ex- plained, is made from wood, and may be used as grain alcohol or as a gasoline substitute.
 The new liquid is said to have the advantage of being cheaper than any now in use as fuel for motors. It gives more mileage and is free from carbon.
 It is made from pulp waste. mixed with kerosene, and is cheap CT than gasoline.

FOOD DISTRIBUTION
 INCREASING PRICES

WASHINGTON, D. C., April II. Improved marketing facilities are urged by the federal trade board, in report made public today, as a means of reducing the cost of food distribution in the United States. The present facilities, the report points out, are inadequate and cumbersome, with the result that the cost of food distribution enters very largely into the present high cost of living.
 The report points out that the incomes of many workers fall short of the proportionate increase in prices, and it is further shown that the weekly wage of union labor in 1918 bought only 77 percent as much food as the weekly wage did in 1913.
 The actual cost of food, it is stated, now absorbs 3S percent of the average union wage earner's in come.

 Not one. but many companies, brought suit against the league, with out success. for the defendant would put his ''preferred' customers, all men of unquestioned reputation, on the stand, and the case would be dis missed.
 This man reduced letter writing to a science. He dictated a set of cir cular letters answering every con- ceivable sort of question pertaining to his business, indexed them and then dismissed the greater part of his clerical force.
 MT. Lee told one amusing result. X customer complained that a drip pan was missing from a shipment. The inexperienced girl who answered the complaint looked up "goodsD in the index and followed it down until she found the word lost" She then sent out a circular letter saying that the league always took the greatest care to see that there was no shortage in shipm ents, and if the consignee would shake sup the excelsior in the bottom of the box" he undoubtedly would find the missing object.
 After years fight the vigilance committee obtained conviction. and sent the head of the league to prison.
