Germans to Use Liquid Coal
lFrom Youths Companion

Chemists and physicists are con-
tinually changing the aspect ot our
industrial life. The laboratory ex-
periments OF one generation become
the commercial processes OF the next.
II need surprise no one to learn that
German scientific men are planning
to double the value OF the coal re-
sources OF their country by turning
the mineral into liquid than can be
burned like petroleum.
Berthelot, the famous French
chemist, first succeeded in liQuefying
coal more than sixty years ago. He
treated it with chemicals and melted
il in sealed glass tubes at tempera'
ture OF 275 degrees. centigrade.
Russian, Ipatieif. improved the proc
ess by carrying il on under pressure,
but il remained curious rather than
a practical achievement.
In 1919 a German, Professor
Bergius, discovered way TO liquety
all kinds OF coal and even peat and
wood. His process requires tenn
perature of 400 degrees. centigrade.
/ but is said not to be expensive, and
il produces a liquid that can be re-
hned to petroleum Of almost any con-
sistency. and that contains hardly
any waste. Berthelot's artihciaii,
made coal oil was almost 40 per cent
waste.
II is evident that the discovery
which an American correspondent IN
Berlin says Is being commercially ex'
plotted. at once doubles the fuel value
of coal, especially of the poorer and
cheaper grades, for under the boiie'
some of the soft Goals and lignitei

mower: the oil made from then
would make almost all Of II avail
able. Now. when the German Goa
supply is diminished by the loss 0
the Saar region and the obligation o
turning over to the Allies two milliol
tons a month, such discovery seem
likely to be OF the greatest import
ance. Necessity, now as ever, Is IN
mother OF invention: II was the oil

JNFLUENCE OF ACCURATE
MEASURES on OUR LIVES
without Them Neither the steam
Engine Nor the Automobile Would
Have Been Possible.

JFrom the Type Metal MagazineD
James Watt could not make a
steam engine until men were able TO
measure so exactly that cylinder
and piston could be built that were
steam tight and yet allowed Tree
play.
The automobile of today was not
possible until men could measure the
fiye-thousandths of an inch as easily
as a carpenter does a foot.
Although these fractional meas
urements are not OF apparent I'M
portance TO the average man, IN
reality nearly every modern comfort
he uses is made possible by the work

iucted by the bureau touches US on

travel. the concrete foorings in our
fireproof office buildings, the steel

Public Works Board Will Take up Sf5O.OO0 Operation as Soon as
 Land Righta arc Secured.

The problem of providing sewage disposal facilities for the Belvidere section of the city. which has been before the board of public works and the common council for a number of years and which was recently solved through a plan drafted by City Engin- eer Joseph D.

No difficulty is anticipated in securing the desired land rights and the board expected that the work can be undertaken soon. Tho operations represent about s15O.- 900, tho money for which has been provided through a sewer bond issue favorably upon by the city meeting board. The proposed sewer runs from East street. near the Clayton end. to Jubilee street. Under the legislative grant. the city is privileged to allow Newington property owners to connect with the sewer. the costs thereof to be fixed by the board of compensation and assessment.

 NEGROES FROM HOMES
Exodus of Colored People From Village Follows Shoot
 ing of White Children.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Sept. 15.-Ne- gro families of Montlake, a mining village near here, were fleeing from their homes today pursued by the white residents of tho village. follow ing the shooting of four white chil- dren, Edna Barnett and her three sis tcrl last night.
 Jewel Clipper. a negro gir., is said to have fired a shotgun at the white children while they were gathered at claimed rights of precedence.
 A posse of deputy sherins from this city arrived at Montlake last evening and found armed guards patrolling the village. The Clipper girl. her parents and brother are under arrest. Miss Barnett is in a hospital here and is said to be in a precarious condition.
 More than 100 armed miners drove the negroes from their homes. the re- ports said.
 No injuries were reported here al- though n number of shots were fired. According to authorities here. both sides have frequently been driven from tho spring by the opposing race and that the victors would then rile the water to prevent the others from us- ing it.
 officers here received reports that members of the Clipper family had in- structed their children to shoot any white children if any quarrel develop ed at the spring and that when the Clipper girl saw the four white chill dren getting water she fired a shot gun from the house wounding them.

 Referring to n speech by the pre- mier in which he was quoted as 'ad- vocatinR the right of the governed to havo voice in their government. the statement continued:
 These words arc the true answer to tho criticism of our position which your last letter puts forward.

That Is the sense in which we underutand 1t.
