Alcohol For Fuel to

Engineers Predict Large Quantities
OF Crop Will Be Thus Utilized.

CHICAGO.-Corn belters may not
have to worry much longer about the
lower prices of corn, for engineers see
possibilities of using large quantities
of this crop in the production of al
cohol for fuel. They predict that the
time may come within the next few
years when the corn fields may be en-
listed to aid the oil fields in production
of fuel to run farm machinery and au-
tomobiles.
At the closing session today of a
three-day convention of the American
Society of Agricultural Engineers, A.

committee, said that consumption of
fuel used in gasoline engines now ex-
