A FINANCIAL LESSON.
(Kansas city starr

The Bank of Germany reports about
one hundred times the pre-war amount
of currency is in circulation in that
country. At the same time the mark
went to a new low level of .27 of a
cent. which is about one -ninetieth of
the pre-war value
Here is a financial school that beats
Coins famous financial school of the
free silver campaign all hollow in its
impressive teaching of the possibility
of performing miracles with currency
by means of the printing press.
It would be delightful to have lot
more money in the country as many
orators have contended; delightful if
it were possible to maintain its value
at the same time. But as Germany
and Russia have demonstrated, the
more you have. the less you've got.
Which isn't so satisfactory.

of the dirigible. thus getting a direct
drive. giving greater control of the
craft, and much increased speed for
any given horsepower.
When the United States entered the
war; helium for use in dirigibles was
discussed among bureau of mines Of
hcials and the matter was presented
to the army and navy air services.
These services enthusiastically ap-
proved the proposition and allotments
of money were made from the army
and navy appropriations to carry it
forward.
Three Experimental Plants.
Three experimental plants were
constructed in Texas under the direc-
ton of the bureau of mines, two at
Fort Worth. for economic reasons;
one plant used the Linde system of
! liquefaction. the other the Claude sys-
tenn. and the supply of gas was piped
to the plants from Petrolia, Texas.
Analysis had showed that this gas
contained 95 per cent helium. An
other plant was later constructed at
Petrolia, near the gas wells and use
was made of a new method of lique-
faction. called the Jeffries Norton
process All three plants produced
helium, but the Linde plant proved the
most efficient, and ii was decided to
construct, under the cognizance of the
navy a much enlarged plant for OBJ
tanning helium in greater quantities.
The construction of this plant was
started in October, 1918; il was com
pleted in December. 1920, and was OPP
Grated during part of 1921. 1t pro-
duced altogether about 100000 cubic
feet of helium, which. with the helium
obtained at the smaller plants during
the experimental period. makes avail
able at the present time a total of
about 2.4OO. 600 cubic feet of helium
gas over 80 per cent in purity. Most
Of the gas is around IS per cent grade.
No Production at Present.
Before the completion of the large
plant. the two experimental plants at
Fort Worth were shut down and dis
mantled The plant at Petrolia, Tex
as. was continued. however, until July,
1921. on a purely experimental basis.
II was then shut down. and at the
present time is being kept in a stand
by condition.
The method of operation in all of
these plants is, in general the same.
The object is to liquefy all elements
making up the natural gas except the
helium, which does not liquefy at the
temperature used After liquefaction
of all other constituents in the gas
the helium can be pumped off.
No production of helium is now In
progress, but funds will probably be
furnished by congress to run the large
plant at Fort Worth practically dur
ing the whole of next year. Under
such conditions. from s to 10 million

Terrestrial Helium Discovered.

Terrestrial Helium Discovered.
For several years nothing more was
done in connection with this element
In 1894. Sir William Ramsay. in con-
junction with Lord Raylegh, made his
memorable discovery of argon in the
atmosphere. After this discovery,
Ramsay looked for other sources OF
the element. He learned that Dr. w
F. Hnlebrand Of the United States ge-
illogical survey had obtained an in
ert gas from certain uranium miner
ais, which gas he had decided was nj
trogen. Ramsay believed that part Of
it might be argon: he obtained from
Hillebrand for experimentation. a
sample of the mineral, cleveite, one
of the uranium minerals, and after ex-
tracing gas from the mineral and
purifying it. he ran it into a spectrum
tube The lines obtained were, how
ever, different from those of argon;
among them was the bright yellow line
noted by Jansen. Thus was terres-
trial helium discovered.
In 1907. Cady and Mcfarland Of the
University of Kansas published a re-
port on the presence of helium in
several natural gases. mainly Kansas
gases. This work disclosed the infor-

had developed type of dirigible call
ed Zeppelin, after Count Zeppelin, its
inventor The French and British
had no dirigibles at the beginning of
the war. but later FASTENED to repair
their deficiency From experience
gained in the defense of London. it
was recognized that the dirgible was
vulnerable against a we'll organized
attack The Germans, too. recogniz-
ed this and invariably made attacks
on England at night operating from
high altitude in order to minimize
attacks by airplane. as a single incen-
diary bullet fired into a dirigible would
quickly bring the huge ship down,
mass of flames. The inflammability
OF the hydrogen contained in the ship
was the one weak point in this meth
cd of attack. The constant danger
of a swift and terrible death had its
effect moreover on the nerves of OPP
Grating crews. lessening their eff
cheney. The remedy for this situa-
ton was, of course. to be found in a
nom inflammable gas. light enough to
replace hydrogen as a lifting force;
helmm is the only gas known to have
these qualities. The use of helium has
still other advantages. II diffuses
through a fabric at about three-quar-
ters the rate of hydrogen; its non-in-
flammability makes it possible to
