YALE MAN SUGGESTS MAKING
ALCOHOL FOR Use As FUEL
FROM TROPICAL VEGETATION

ROCHESTER. y. Y, Apr. 26.-H n.
Whitford. OF the Yale School OF For
estry. told the American Chemical So
ciety in its annual meeting here today
that alcohol could be manufactured
from the moist vegetation OF tropical
forests and jungles could be utilized
to avert future scarcity OF fuel for
driving automobiles.
There is an abundance OF alcohol
in tropical vegetation. he said. but the
difficulty lies in finding the means of
manufacturing it probably.
THE evidence is conclusive" said
he, that the tropical sun has the pow
er to store up more energy in the
form OF cellulose in given time than
has the temperate sun. II this Is in
a utilizable form it remains for the
ingenuity of man to overcome the diff
iculties of profitably applying it..
NTH the increa sing needs of the ma
ion IL is reasonable TO expect that
sooner or later it will be necessary
0 utilize more fully the plant re-
sources OF the tropics
THE future scarcity OF the coun-
rvs liquid fuel supply" continued
Mr. Whitford. lis now so apparent
hat the question of its early replace
nent has become a vital problem in
latural economics. The problem.
however. is OF such magnitude that
only from a consideration of new
,ources OF energy and the discovery
+ new raw material would il seem
hat any solution could be effective.
\ question involving the synthesis OF
ONE 1906, 100000 gallons of feasible
substitute annually calls for the de-
elopment of new ideas and new
ources OF energy. Our one great
'ource of energy is undoubtedly that
# the sun How can this source best
utilized? Obviously in the growth
# plant life from which, in turn
lcohol and other fuels may be
made"
Mr. Whitford said that the annual
production OF alcohol from the nipa
liant in the Philippines is now nearly
100000 gallons and that one distil-
cry there had produced SO per cent
tlcohol at a cost of about 20 cents a
;allon and, If operated to full ca
,acity could make ii at cost of Is

FARMERS UNION GETS
HARDING'S ASSURANCE
ON FREIGHT RATE CUT

Assurance that President Harding
will take prompt steps 10 secure
lower freight rates on farm products
was given the three hundred farmers
who attended a convention of the Ma
iional Farmers Union in Washington
during last week, according to c. 5
Barrett. president of the union.
Mr. Barrett declared that Congress
had been completely won over to the
necessity of reducing freight rates as
a means of saving the agriculture of
the country. and will cooperate with
the President fully to this end.
I'VE have asked the government TO
act quickly and give US such temper
airy relief as will justify the country
in entertaining the hope that a per-
manent readjustment will speedily
follow" said Mr. Barrett yesterday
Il have hopes that the President
will soon call a conference of spokes-
men for ali great interests. including
farmers and labor. In such confer
ence basis of settlement for the
questions that are now irritating the
country may be found.
1T is useless 10 tell the farmer that
he is the backbone of the nation. while
an assistant government is bending
that backbone almost TO the breaking
point"

LIVESTOCK OWNERS
SEEKING FUNDS FOR
ERADICATION OF 7. B.

In order that Inconsistencies
ton work may be continued, Secre-
tary OF Agriculture Wallace. at the
urgent request of Members of Con-
gress and others interested in the live
stock industry. has asked that an
emergency fund amounting 10 $4O5.-
900 be included in the deficiency bill
Of the present Congress. TO be used in
the payment OF indemnities for tuber-
culous cattle IL is estimated by the
Bureau OF Animal Industry that this
amount will be necessary to carry on
the Strengthening OF tuberculous cattle
until June 80. the end of the present
fiscal year.
For the present fiscal year." says
the Secretary, in requesting the def
cheney appropriation, 100000 was
provided in the agricultural APP
preparation act for operating expenses
in the eradication of tuberculosis, and
$3.50 440 for the payment of indemni-
ties for tuberculous cattle slaughtered
On account OF the number of reacting
animals found, the sum provided for
indemnities is practically exhausted"
There remain sufficient funds to
carry on the operating expenses for
the remainder of the fiscal year, but,
because the fund provided for indem-
mites is exhausted. it has been neces-
sary TO discontinue the testing of new
herds II the emergency fund asked
by Secretary Wallace is passed in the
deficiency bill, the eradication-work
can continue without serious inter-
ruption.
For the first months of the pres
ent year." the Secretary continues.
there were found by the tuberculin
test 32,424 tuberculous cattle; where
as for the same months of the pre-
vious year there were found only 49,
| 273 reactors. This is not an indi-
cation that tuberculosis is on the in
crease because there were tested. from
July /, 1920, TO February 2S. 1921. 1922
| 39S cattle with Al per cent of reac-
tors; whereas during the previous
year for the same months there were
tested 419,376 cattle with AS per cent.
| of reactors.
Another fact that should be taken
into consideration is that the market
value of cattle has decreased to an
extraordinary degree, in fact the sal
wage received from the sale of tuber-
| culous cattle was approximately
| twelve dollars per head less during
these eight months than during the
| previous fiscal year, thus making it
necessary that the department pay a
larger percentage of indemnity than
| heretofore.
1T is estimated that for the balance
Of the fiscal year there would be con-
| iemned for tuberculosis 1880 cattle
md at an average rate of indemnity
| Of $50 per head the total claims for
| Federal indemnity would amount to
| $4,000 Therefore, this additional
sum would be necessary to keep the
work going along uninterruptedly to
June 80"

SONGS FROM SOUTHERN SOIL.

There are songs to be found in the
South this year, and last year there
were none. This is the discovery Of
a comedian from Broadway, who, cur
iously enough, comes South every

Journal You would think he could
find better what he needed in Tin
Pan Allev, near Times square-that
section of New York where jazz is
manufactured just as ladies ready

man who blacks his face and sings
in musical comedy says it isn't the
syncopated stuff of the professional
song writer's that really gets Broad
