In this book Mr.. Dole presents a
very fascinating picture OF the mature
lifo OF the Persian mathematician. as

time of much historic interest. when
Persia was under the domain of the
Turk. II shows him. as the easy, tenn
peramental. pleasure loving poet, call

fairs OF state. In which he acquitted
himself with credit and encountered
some thrilling dangers- But its
chief feature il the fine in
which IL tells Of his love romance, az
his tender and beautiful infatuation
for the lovely Greek princess who wa
held Tor ransom. in the Persian capl-
tai; how il progressed amid Difficult
ties engendered by the necessity for
secrecy; how Il became involved ir
intrigue due 10 the manipulations OF 8
scheming and faithless servant OF tbs
Sultan, and how in the end tho cours
OF love WAS frustrated by tho cru

Throughout the work II IL show

have we any disposition in advance
to commit ourselves to the proposed
measure. 1t would seem better to
keep an open mind, as it may ap
pear that if the proposed increase
is merited and the difficulty in meet
ing it seems too great some advance
might be possible.
AS we have seen the pensions paid
the current year were 247; if it We're
proposed to increase TIE pension by
500, the total increase would be
$24 700 1t may be that it would be
found inadvisable to grant such in

PROBLEMS CONFRONTING A. F.

The 42d annual convention of the
American Federation OF Labor at
Cincinnati this week is burdened
with problems which Mr.. Gompers
declares have been heaped upon it
by labor's enemies. Members of the
executive council declare the decision
in the Coronado case. making the
labor union liable to suits for dam
ages, is a destructive blow to labor
organizations.
All leaders in the labor field are
not of this mind it appears. Some
argue that if the labor union can
be sued it also can sue. 1t will be
recalled that the leader of the gar
mcnt workers in New York was sue
cessful in obtaining an injunction
against the employers. It's. a poor
rule which won't work both WAYS.
The processes of law should provide
a medium through which labor rs
well as capital might protect itself,
When they shall be so employed and
courts shall measure up to the OPP
portunites the excuse for rosorting
to strikes and lock-outs should be
materially lcssencd. At least both
sides should seek first the relief so
provided.

Condensed Vapors
Increase Gasoline
Output Millions

Washington, June 1O.-Possibility
Of increasing the output of gasoline
by 120,OOO,O 900 gallons through more
complete condensation of still vapors
at the petroleum rcnneries, was sug-
Gosted today by the Bureau of Mines
after an Investigation by ID. i. Dow,
the bureaus petroleum engineer.
Mr.. Dow estimated that 30, OOO. 900
gallons We're recovered from uncon-
denscd still vapors at rcfneries in
1921.
Application OF the system to all
rcfincrics would give Il possible gaso-
line recovery BY this method of no.
100000 gallons yearly" the bureau
said in a statement
The calculations OF the Bureau
Of Mines are based on results OBJ
tanned in rcfineries whose general
methods are more efficient than
those employed in the hundreds OF
smaller Swimming plants that have
no recovery systems. It is assumed
that III the less efficient Swimming
plants, located in sections where the
supply Of cold water, 50 essential
for condenser use, is scarce, greater
rccOverios could he made than in the
large rcnncrics studied. This should
be especially true of oklahoma,

formed by heating crude Oil is eff
fcCtcd in the refinery by leading va
pors through coils of pipe submerged

Vapor becomes liquefied. but a GER
tain amount Of Napor, due to INSULT
Cicnt time for proper cooling or the
fact that its condcnsing point is
lower than the temperature of the

Also. certain other fractions will not

their liquefaction points are affected
Wy the presence of other hydrocar-
bons \ small part of this uncon-

"Condcnsation of the Vapors COM
ing from the still into liquid is ac
complished either by passing them
through pipes or shells having large
surfaces exposed to the air or
through coils submerged in water.
atmospheric temperature is an
important factor in the production
OF gasoline from uncondensed re fin
cry Vapors. 1t is found that during
winter months, due to more COM
plcte condensation or the vapors, the
production of the gas plant will fall
off to some extent. An unusual eX
ample of this is a certain Swimming
plant which produces about 5000
gallons of compression gasoline daily
through the summer months, but
drops to as low as 800 gallons per
day in the winter. Ordinarily, the
difference is far less, but there is
always a tendency for production to
drop in cooler weather
1.-The cost of installing recovery
plants will necessarily vary. depend
ing on local conditions such as the
distances between different stills
which are sources of gas, the nature
Of gas, especially in regard to sui

Nv. However. cost of approx
mately 80 per gallon of gasoline
daily capacity should be sufficient.
The operating cost of the gas plant
is relatively. low"
