Hamakuapoko, Island of Maui, T
H., Sept. 23-Coal strikes, warnings
that the forests of the world may
soon disappear if conservation is moi
practiced, predictions that the petro,
leum supply of the world may soon be
exhausted and the high price of gas.
oline have no terrors for the inhabi-
tants of this small community, for
they cook, heat their houses and run
their automobiles on alcohol which
is generated by a newly discovered
process from molasses.
The process was evolved by J. P
Foster, head shemist of the Maui Ag-
ricultural company and has been pa
tented in all of the sugar producing
countries of the world, he said. Here
tofore, molasses always had been
considered waste product in sugar
milling.
Originally, the alcohol produced by
Foster was used only in the company
trucks and automobiles but later,
enough was manufactured to supply
employees of the plantation, who live
in Kamakuapoko. A simple appara-
tus composed of a few thin pipes and
an open burner is required to burn
the alcohol to supply heat for cooking
and these have been placed in all of
the homes here.
Foster said that Maui can produce
only enough alcohol in this fashion
to supply the needs of the islands
population and that no surplus would
be available for use on the other is
lands of Hawaii.

AMERICAN GETTING

NATIONALIST N 0W
Picking Up Trade For
merly Enjoyed by the
British

London, Sept. 23-Americans are
picking up most of the business in
Anatolia, and in this they are aided
by the fact that the United States
has established direct relations with
the Nationalist Turks, according to
Major General Sir Charles Towns
bend, member of the House of Com
mons, who has returned to London
from a visit to Angora and other
parts of the Near East. Great Bri-
tain's hostile attitude toward Musta-
pha Kemal, the Turkish Nationalist
leader, is costing British commercial
interests lot Of money.
"The net effect of the unfriendly
attitude of my country toward the
Turks" General Townshend declares,
dis that all the business is being ac-
quired by America, France and Italy.
While Great Britain is supporting the
Greeks, the Americans have estab-
lished Consulate at Angora, and the
French and Italians have official mis-
sions at Konia and Adana, near the
port of Mersina. At Adana, too, the
Standard Oil Company of America
has set up quarters"
General Townshend, who is accused
of having broken a pledge to the
British government that he would not
visit Angora, declares that Turkey is
"a very rich country with great for
ests, copper and coal mines, and oil
fields. If peace were signed tomor-

GA|NIh6fEvER IS
J: RUNNING HIGH IN
MOSCOW PAL ACES
Five Players Waiting for
' Every Vacancy at the
Green Tables
CBy Associated Press)

Moscow, Sept. 23-There are five
players waiting for every available
seat around the baccarat and rou.
lette tables in the newly opened
gambling Casino in Moscow, where
the play runs high from s o'clock ir
the evening until 10 the next morn
ing. ...
Freuuenters of Monte Carlo and
the other big European gaming plac-
les in the old days when Russian arts
tocrats went abroad to spend their
money, always remember the Slavs
as the most reckless and inveterate of
gamblers. A visit to the Moscow
Casino today shows that all of the
troubles of the Russian revolution
have not changed them.
Workmen, roughly dressed, and
unshaven, with heaps of ten and hum
bred million ruble notes in front of
them, sit tensely watching the turn
of card at tables where, perhaps, a
fashionably dressed girl, unable to
get a seat, leans over a workman and
asks him to place a bet for her, or
proposes that they take the "bank' at
baccarat together.
Foreigners wonder where the play
ers get their money. Persons whose
appearance suggest their readiness
for the vagrancy court or the poor
house, dig heaps of Russian ruble
notes, foreign currency and even gold
coins out of ragged coats, and lose or
win billions without outward appear
ance of elation or discomposure.
The "big play" at baccarat is con-
fined to one room, barred to all those
except actual players. Here the min.
imum bet is 100000 rubles or, al
present rates, about $12 in American
money. From this minimum banks
are frequently built up to many bill
ions of rubles, equal to several thou
sand dollars. At other tables tho
minimum bet is 100000 rubles, Of
two and half dollars, and these ia
bies are in the open, with scores o
anxious spectators crowding abou
those lucky enough to get places.
The roulette wheel is operated on
ly for one hour each night, and her
the maximum bets range from 5000,
! 900 rubles on single number to 80,
: 100000 on color. The wheel ha
two zeros, instead of the Usual on
at Monte Carlo, and the profits O
the "house" at roulette are, in pro
portion, twice those which the Mont
Carlo gamblers reap from thei
wheels.
At least 100000 changes hand
nightly at this casino, for the "house
in taking five percent from each bac
carat pot, reaps an average of abou
$4,000 night Recently one nights
takings were 69,OOOOOO,OOO rubles.
Prices that shock even hardened
American tourists are demanded fol-
refreshments served by the walters
. while the play is on. A package Of
ten cigarettes of we'll known but
very cheap brand, selling in England
. for the equivalent of ten cents, bring
six million rubles or a dollar and a
half, while a small bottle of soda wa
ter is served at the equivalent of sew
enty-five cents.
Practically all of the gains of the
house go to the government for re-
lief of famine sufferers, or other
worthy causes.

Fleece-lined roads for getting motor .

prised great many motor tourists
travelling through certain sections Of
California and Arizona, says the L.

market value upon cotton in certain.

making of roads. ....'. ...s"
Ranchmen of the Salt River valley
of Arizona are doing with cotton Just
what farmers in other sandy sections
do with straw or brush. Cotton Is
simply thrown down upon the road
over stretches where the sand is an
nOying. Traffic over the road then
packs the cotton down into the sand
until it forms a firm, smooth and re-
silent surface, over which motor
vehicles may progress with almost as
much ease as over a paved street In
