Special Despatch to THE NEW YoaK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau
Washington. ID. O., Oct. 8.
Whether the Shipping Board will ask
Congress for legislation authorizing 1t
to reduce the price OF Shipping Board
tonnage sold to various companies and
Individual ship operators probably will
be decided as the result of hearings
before the board beginning Monday. Oc-
tober "a.
These hearings have been arranged
by the board in response to many de-
mands from purchasers of Shipping Board
vessels who state that as the price of
tonnage has fallen materially since they
paid the first !nstalments of their pur-
chase money they are having difficulty
In competing on even terms with other
vessels.
Recently Elmer Slesinger, general
counsel of the board, gave 1t is his opin-
Ion that the board Is without authority
ia law to reduce these prices and that II
reductions are TO be made Congress will
have to enact special legislation for that
purpose. -.s

One Of the most useful materials IN

domestic necessity, but a scientific o..
sential. The development of chemistry
would have been a far more laborius
process had 1t not been for the many
utensils manufactured from glass. SO
numerous and varied are It's uses that
one can hardly conceive Of present
day civilization without this product.
Yet the discovery of,this valuable ma
terial was what might be termed an
accident, Floyd W., Parsons writes in

nicia. The crew prepared their food
on the beach. supporting their kettles
on piles made up Of Jumps Of the na.

to discover transparent masses Of
stone among the cinders Of their fires.
The heat had melted the soda and the
siliceous sand together, with the result
that n crude variety of glass was
formed. II the early records are cor.
