'-- MAKING GASOLINE
France Working on New Plans by
 Turning Crude Oil Into Use for Au- .tomobile Operation.

There have been so many processes developed during the past few years which have been heralded as the \ "only real solution" of the gasoline problem. that oil refiners have be- come almost deaf to requests for hearings from gasoline" inventors
 But in France a new process has re- gently received careful and official at tention of French governmental ad- nfinistrators interested in the gaso- line problem. The process is called Geigel. It is said to produce gasoline from crude oil, shale oil, various heavy oil products, and even still res- tdtes, in one step. iu contradistinc- tfon to the cracking processes known and used up to the present time. which require two distinct operations. The process is said to work success fully and that the yield of gasoline is very high. It has also been proven that the gasoline product will dissolve perfectly in alcohol fact which is of special importance in the manu- facture of composite motor fuels.
