burne Rogers:
"when the United States Joined the
allies, the military value Of hellum
was at once brought to the attention
Of the army and navy authorities, and
q vigorous campaign was begun for
the production Of helium In quaint.
ties.
'The two main problems were oh.
vious: FIRST to develop methods Of
extracting helium from natural gas
and, second, to determine the geologic
occurrence Of the gas, and 10 to locate
adequate supplies.
Late In 1917 two small experiment.
III plants using different methods were
erected III Fort Worth, Texas, u treat
the gas Of the Petrolia field; and some
months later third plant, using a
still different method. was erected In
the field Itself ~
"As the apparatus used In all the
processes Of extracting helium gas for
balloon purposes requires rather del.
Icate adjustment and manipulation
some time was naturally consumed In
determining the most efficient work.
ing conditions; but just prior to the
armistice the first shipment Of 10000
cubic feet Of helium, compressed and
stored In steel tanks, had been started
to Europe. This was enough to Ill
four Of the ordinary kite balloons,
though large dlrIgibles require one to
two million or more cubic feet Of gas.
"Although quantity production Of
heilum was achieved just too late to
be Of value In the actual hostilities,
II was In itself great accomplish.
ment, for the worlds total output Of
helium up to 1915 was probably less
than 100 cubic feet, the market value
Of which was about $1.700 a cubic
foot. Our hellum can be produced by
the first two methods developed at
less than 10 cents cubic foot. and
II the third process fulfills expecta-
tions, this 'figure will be still further
reduced.
"The details Of the process Of ex.
tracing helium are highly technical,
but the general scheme is easily un-
derst0od. All Of the main constitu-
ents Of natural gas. including the nj
trogen, become liquefed when cooled
to about minus 1928 degrees, Fahrenheit !;
but the helium remains a gas at this
exceedingly low temperature and Is

FIGHT FOR CONTROL
COP. IN WELD 1922

A fight for the control of the local
G. o. P. organization which will
equal In intensity an interest the
stand-pat progressive fight In 1912 IL
forseen by Leo G Mann, Greeley at
torney who takes much interest In
local and state politics.
"The caucuses and the assembly
in 1922 will be harder fought than
any political contests here for ten
years. A desperate effort is being
made by several Greeley men to
build up machines to further their
own ambitions. They are willing to
sacrifice good government. the
schools. and the unity Of the county
for the machine. Fortunately the
rank and file Of the G. o. p. has got
their number There will be no pus-
syfooting or steam roller work In
the assembly OF 1929, that lie Ger

Mann pointed to the organization
Of the taxpayers league. the Impend-

over federal patronage as outcropp-

analysis he declares is fight for su-

how the war affected them. In Il

"One half the Jews Of the world
have had to bear Its nliseries, its cruel
ties, Its sufferings. They lived In the
theater Of war between Russia and
Germany and Austria. In this region,
almost without ceasing, the campaign
continued. The russians laid waste
the country In order to embarrass
their pursuing enemies, and between
the two armies the population, OF

Mr.. STRAIGHT
IN Defence

County commissioner, Dan c.
Straight Of Greeley, sends US an ad-
vance copy Of the following letter
written TO the Tribune with the re-
quest to publish We are delighted
to comply with the request:
In your issue Of April 18th ! no.
ticed an article by c. r. Graves rel
alive to the division of the roal funds
for northeastern Weld, and he in
Inmates that am deducting 80 per-
cent for overhead expenses in the ad-
ministration Of the read fund.
Now, have no desire to enter into
any lengthy controversy with Mr..
Graves for his distortion OF my state
ments In regard to a square deal for
that part Of the county fortells any
intentions on his part to give me q
square deal, and personally l don't
care cuss what his opinions are.
The point at issue is however, to get
the most road improvement out of the
money Justly belonging to that local
ity. Forget county division wrang-
ling and all get together and do
something besides bowling, knocking
and fomenting.
Now NE have approximately $3.50.
600 In the road fund, II the taxes
were collected. but about 20 per
cent are usually delinquent, uncol-
lected and rebates, Eighty per cent
of $350, 900 Is $3.50, 900, not count
ing the registered warrants against
the road fund January II. $780,
900 divided onto 5000 miles of roads
gives us about $35 per mile. Doesn't
It? No overhead yet either.
Now why does Weld county pay
into the State Treasury something
over 100000 for general road i'm
provement? Because in some parts
OF the state more costly bridges are
necessary and 1t is for the benefit OF
the whole state.
Mr.. Graves has no personal inter-
ests in bridge across the Platte Ri
yer Still whenever he leaves his
home he travels over roads and brid-
ges that cost money and that possibly
he has contributed towards building.
II the administration Of the road
fund is charged strictly with salaries
Of the road supervisors and Office ex-
penes II would run less than per
cent, but Mr.. Graves forgets all about
any Of the road machinery and re-
pairs on same and the only thing he
does not forget is opposition to any
thing that might be connected with
Greeley, which 10 going to make II

ASIATIC PROVINCE OF
ANCIENT GREECE

lie province Of Smyrna. on the
coast OF Asia Minor, was placed IN
der Greek administration following
the World war, and has been the scene
recently Of fighting between Greek and
Turkish nationalist forces.
The basis for Greek claims to the
Smyrna district In Asia Minor Is put
pithily In statement which former
Premier Venizelos Of Greece Is re.
ported to have made to the supreme
council Of the allies. "We seek no
mandate, we seek to enter our home"
Smyrna, and the remainder Of the
west coast Of Asia Minor, which have
been accepted as Turkish with little
question for many generations. had
well-devel0ped Greek civilization and
culture when the ancestors OF the
Turks, half-clvillzed nomads. were
still wandering with their focks over
the bleak steppes Of central Asia.
The portion Of the province Of
Smyrna which has been occupied by
Greek forces comprises roughly old
lOnia, country which was as purely
Greek as Attica itself, and parts Of
AeOlis, another Greek country adj0ln.
ing lonia on the north. Greeks. pos
sibly from Crete or other islands OF
the Aegean, are supposed to have set.
tied In IonIa shortly after the Trojan
war. The cities which they built In
this favored land Of sunny mountain
slopes, fertile valleys, and good bar
bors were thriving and wealthy marts
Of trade and centers Of culture eight
hundred years or more before the
time Of Christ, when they are Arst
heard Of In recorded history.
Smyrna Ia one Of the citiea

many Of his poems. Sappho was
born In Asiatic Greece and maintained
a school In one Of Its cities. Sculp-
ture. painting, and practically every
phase Of the Greek art which has de.
lighted later generations and served
as their models had Its beginning In
Asiatic Ionia, and nourished there be-
fore coming to full flower In Athens
and the other cities Of European
Greece. Ephesus, where that world
wonder, the temple Of Diana stood,
was not far from the present city Of
Smyrna, and a dozen more Of the
great cities Of the early Greeks were
near by.
The modern province Of Smyrna is
the most favored Of all the provinces
of Asia Minor. 1t contains three Of
the most considerable rivers Of the
country. including the Meander, whose
serpentine course has given the Eng
lish language an expressive verb. Fer
tile soil and temperate climate have
added to the regions attractions, while
the possession Of port and city
the city Of Smyrna-unequaled by any
other in Asia Minor has contributed
another immeasurably important as
set. Though imperfectly titled during
Its control by Turkey, the province
Of Smyrna has nevertheless been noted
for Its fine fruits For long time II
has furnished the best figs and ralsins
which reach the markets Of Europe.
