the difference between the Wholesale

PROHIBITION DRIVES
FOREIGN BORN HOME
Ellis Island Records Show They Are
Leaving Faster Than They Are
CANINE In

Coming In
New York, March 13-Prohibitio is
causing so many foreign born to leave
the United States that emigration is
exceeding immigration, according to
Congressman Isaac Siegel, a member
of the House Immigration Committee.
Ellis Island record yesterday show
ed that immigration since January
totalled $4,000 while $1,000 persons
left the country Most of the latter
have gone back to Poland and Czecho-
Slovakia.
From the signing OF the armistice,
until January immigration and emf
grafton were about equal, approximate
iy 275,000. In January $4,000 persons
landed here from abroad and $4,000 left
the country In February $4,000 ar
rived and $4,000 left. This month the
excess of emigration is on the increase
$4,000 having left the country and
5000 having arrived Ii is estimated
that the figures for the whole month
will be $4,000 departures and $4,000
arrivals.
While desire TO live in rejuvenated
homelands is a factor in emigration,
Mr.. Siegel believes that prohibition is
the principal reason. Inability to buy
beer or wine, he said, has created con-
siderable ill-feeling among TO- eign-
born residents. particularly in mining
districts.

we used to be able to buy for medlci-
nal purposes" and methylatel spirit.
or industrial alcohol, which is popular
ly called wood ALCOHOL" and which
does contain an amount of that fluid.
Ethyl or ordinary alcohol Is formed
by the spirituous or alcoholic ferlnen,
tation of saccharine juices. The fer
mentatlon must be completed before II
is distilled. 1t is made from grain,
either corn, wheat, or barley. This Is
also known as grain alcohol. The
formula IS C, H. Oh. 1i
Methylated spirit, or industrial alec
hol, is made of ninety parts of ordt
nary alcohol and ten parts of wood
alcO ,ol-methyl alcohol.
Source of Wood Alcohol.
Wood alcohol is obtained by the dry
distilation OF wood. The common
method of obtaining this is to take
cordwood which has been seasoned for
about two years-beech, maple, and
birch are best-place 1t in iron or steel
retorts over a slow fire. The intensity
of the fire is gradually increased as the
distillation progresses. until at the end
of from twelve to eighteen hours moth
ing remains in the retort but charcoal.
The distilate is passed through a
condenser, and the liquid thus gath
cred Is allowed TO set In tanks until
the greater part Of the tarry matter
In II has subsidized. The lighter part Is
then drawn off and saturated with
slaked lime to fix the acetlc acid II
is then distilled second time and the
distillate sent to the reflneries as waod
alcohol. Sawdust or any woody fiber
or celluose can be used in place of
cordwood.
Wood alcohol, either in its pure form
or as an Ingredient of industrial alco-
hol. is n poison, and has a selective
action upon The optic nerve, in which
1t often induces a condition Of perma-
nent atrophy which results in total
blindness.
Denatured Alcohol.
For some purposes completely de-
natured alcohol is made by adding 10
Industrial alcohol little benzine or
pyridine to spoil the taste and rendeys
1t offensive. Denatured alcohol may
be made more cheaply than ordinary
alcohol by using cheaper materials,
such as any starchy vegetable sub
stance, or a waste byproduct, as the
poorest grade of molasses or the waste
of canning factory.
at is probable that good deal OF
the wood alcohol that is being edistrlb
uted as a beverage is the result of the
attempts of amateurs to make ordinary
alcohol. In their ignorance they use
vegetable substances such as potato
peellngs, and, by using too intense
fire and making the dlstillation with
out having first allowed fermentation
to take place, produce methyl or wood
alcohol instead" said ]. FL. Nusbavm
